Best Anti-Hook / Saboteur / Save Tech Survivor Builds
Published 2026-02-20Last verified 2026-02-27
This archetype is about carry-route sabotage, not random hero plays.
Popular Anti-Hook Builds
1) Carry Denial Core
2) Bodyblock Rescue Plan
3) High-Risk Save Tech
Carry Fight Rules
- Contest only when hook math changes meaningfully.
- Enter from side lanes; front-running carries is usually grief.
- Abort quickly if second teammate is late.
Build Cards
Carry Denial Core
Primary lane control package. Saboteur picks targets, Breakout adds wiggle tax, Background Player handles burst entry, Breakdown creates rehook dead spots.
Bodyblock Rescue Plan
Lower variance version for repeated pressure. Babysitter route call plus Borrowed Time protection keeps rescues cleaner than pure sabo coinflips.
High-Risk Save Tech
For stacked teams only. For the People plus Buckle Up is a swing button; misuse costs entire rounds.
Swap Paths
- Lower risk profile: Background Player -> Borrowed Time
- Better macro reads: Breakdown -> Kindred
- Hook denial emphasis: Breakout -> Saboteur
