ROLE: Poison Ivy is a Controller! This means that it is her responsibility to increase the survivability of her teammates to secure kills. I build her focusing on her strong healing and shielding abilities! Poison Ivy has been built very tanky in the past, however, I like to leave that to the Enforcer's (Tanks)! In a team fight be careful to avoid getting caught up in the middle, as your Enforcers (Tanks) and Bruisers should be doing that! You need to hang back with the Marksmen and Blasters.

PLAYSTYLE:  First max her passive and shield then her knockup and kiss. I put her ultimate last as the only thing that scales with it is damaged and I focus on being able to shield and heal the team. For Attacking use your Q to knock the enemy up and/or W on them to blind them or their incoming team mates. Pop your shield on your team mates to help them live longer in the fights! Drop your ultimate R on the enemy team in team fights to do damage/slow. If your team feels it is right to chace, pop the Amulet of Isis, to chase them down.  When escaping, if you built the Amulet of Isis pop it with your Stolen Power Shield and also look into throwing your Q back at the enemy to knock em up and slow them down. Also do not forget to use your shield on yourself if needed. ALSO every 4 skills uses procs Ivy's Healing passive. Don't be afraid to pop one or two skills at base or when you are safe to allow you to pop the passive sooner (if the enemy rushes you) This strategy can also be used to help your own team mates escape...or prevent your enemies from escaping.  Also, it is NOT wasting your ultimate if you drop it down on the chasing team to help you or your allies escape. WHY SO MUCH WILL!?!? Because her abilities scale extremely well off of it!


STARTERS: 
[[Abin Sur's Lantern (2)]] - Early Will Regen and Will Stacks

[[Gorilla Grodd's Helmet (4)]] - Will Regen, Cooldown Reduction, Sheild, Team Buff
Eye Of Ekron (4) - Will Regen (max first)

[[Steel's Breastplate (3)]] - Attack Armor, Will, Helath, Damage to will re-direct
Amulet Of Isis (3) - Speed buff for attacking or retreating!

SITUATIONAL ITEMS:
Bleed Portal - Great for sneaking back to top or ganking bottom. You can also Mod Bleed Portal. By modding Bleed Portal (make its exit first) you can make the exit safely at your base and the entrance at a point where you need to escape quickly


MAIN STOLEN POWERS: Or whatever version you have unlocked!
[[Arcane Green Lantern's Healing Wave]] - I love this Healing Wave over any other as it give you additional Attack & Power Armour when you need it most:

[[Doomsday's Invulnerability]] - In theory you want to stay out of the middle of the fight, however, as a controller you will be focused and many times will need it to stay in the fight longer or to escape.


OPTIONAL STOLEN POWERS
[[Gaslight Batman's Surveillance Camera]] - The cameras have increased sight distance, perfect for the small map of GH. These are great if you have a team member (assassin especially) that wants to use teleport as you can teleport to a camera. Also, placing them in the top or bottom jungle and on top of the orbital camera give GREAT map awareness to your team to prevent =13pxganks and who you are running into face when the orbital cannon =13pxcomes online

[[Catwoman's Teleport]] - Catwoman's has a shorter cooldown. If you think your team may lack mobility, based on the champions they chose...don't be afraid to pick up teleport to rush to your turret to help teammate.

MODS & AUGMENTS: = ocus on Movement Speed over Power Damage and Cooldown Reduction Mods. Your Items will give you MAX cooldown reduction so wasting it for minimal bonus early in the game is not worth it in my opinion. I threw in some health and armor with the movement speed buff so it will give you a bit more of a fighting change if you get focused in the mstch.

NOTE: I use the same Mods For Zatanna, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy....WHY because I only have the standard 3 slots for pages unlocked. I'm saving up to buy more slots, however, this is intended to be a guide that is user-friendly and doesn't need you to have everything unlocked for you to play and have fun!
