We love this Seven build in Deadlock and think you will, too.
Seven's ultimate is one of the best in all of Deadlock, so why not build around it? That was our thought with this Unstoppable Ultimate build that can turn you into a monster in the late game thanks to some great Spirit DPS and cooldown reduction.
