Guide
Hey, my name is Azhus and these are my loadouts, that I use for Maeve.
This is loadout I usually go for. You wanna go Sixth Sense V and Street Cred V because of sustain, that these two cards will give you. This is really important against burst champs like Cassie, Strix, Lian, BK etc. Predation III is for prowl reset. This is must have card in every Maeve's Cat Burglar loadout. Basically it will help you to get your prowl more often, so you can get more damage thanks to Cat Burglar talent. Chase I for some bonus movement speed on Prowl, so you can do some important jumps on certain maps. This card is really good and you should have it in every loadout. Walk It Off I is a filler. You can replace it by something else, if you feel like it's better for you.
Another build would be: Predation V Sixth Sense IV Chase III Street Cred II and Walk It Off I. This loadout you should take, when you feel like enemies won't harass you that much, so you don't need that much sustain.
I have also 2 loadouts that I use when I have Jenos (sometimes with 2 supports it might me good too) in team.
This is again against champs with high burst: Sixth Sense V Street Cred IV Predation IV Chase I and Featherlite I, because you don't need heals from Walk It Off I because you have Jenos and 5% DR on prowl is really helpful.
Last build is with Jenos (or 2 supports), if enemies won't harass you that much and they don't have that much burst: Predation V Sixth Sense V Chase III Street Cred I and Featherlite I. It's good to put more points into Chase, because you can do some jumps on certain maps and overall more movement speed is very useful. So if you don't need sustain, this is card that you should spend your points for.
Items on Maeve:
Cauterize is must buy and always buy it and max it first (against Jenos you don't need Cauterize III.
Haven/Blast shields is most of the time second buy for sustain (obviously depends who are you facing and don't forget lian's Q and Rightclick is Blast damage so you wanna go Blast Shields against her).
Wrecker against many shields, Master Riding if you die a lot, or if you wanna get behind enemies quickly.
Resillience against heavy CC (pip, grover, Khan etc.).
Illuminate vs Stealth champs (Skye, Strix, Sha Lin, sometimes against Seris but it's not necessary).
Rejuvenate you can buy with 2 supports, or with Jenos.
Bulldozer I don't really recommend on Maeve, but you can take it against IO's Luna, or against Imani's dragon.
Kill to Heal if you don't have support in team, or if you are getting many kills.
Life Rip, Nimble, Chronos, Veteran, Morale Boost - these items I don't really use I think you don't ever need any of these items.
That's it for this guide, if it helped you make sure to drop an upvote and cya ingame fellow Maeve mains!
