Why I made this build the way I did

This build is an experimental build that I have been using for my whole experience with Kali and it works really well. Some of the items you could change if you don't like them, but I feel that this build has potential. My reason for picking ninja tabi instead of warrior tabi because of the attack speed increase and cooldown, this is important because this build does take away some potential damage. Ichaival can be subsituted with silverbranch bow depending on what is necessary for your current match. Also, the penetration is nice considering your'e giving up some damage. As you can see I am going attack speed, crit chance, and life steal, and that is why I put in bloodforge. Nice physical power and the blood shield to go along with it is nice, and well needed. The key part of this build is wind demon, more attack speed for hitting crits allowing more crits to occur, amazing for Kali. Soul eater I like because this build has fast attack speed and that 2% health gain is really good for a squishy like Kali. Lots of people don't like poison star, but that slow combos really well with this build and helps when that enemy is running with little to know health. All in all, this build is very useful and I had to solo a joust a couple times and won, which wasn't easy but was very possible with this build. With this build, the enemy should fear you as you go near them, so I say definitely give this a try and give feedback for what I could change.
