How Refresher is performing now
Pick rate measures the share of ranked player-match records across every rank containing this item. Win rate is descriptive, not causal: expensive items and winning game states can inflate results. Lock Lab always shows the sample and adjusts hero-specific results against each hero's own all-ranks baseline. Read the full methodology →

Ability cadence
Reset the cooldown of all your abilities and restore all your charges .
Refresher functions as ability cadence within the Spirit shop. The strategic value is changing how often—or for how long—a key ability can influence the fight. Because it is a late-build investment, the right comparison is the fight pattern it unlocks versus the other purchases that the same 6,400 souls could complete.
When Refresher belongs in the build
- A specific ability is central to your initiation, damage, rescue, or escape pattern.
- The extra cast, charge, or duration produces more value than a flat-stat purchase at the same price.
- You can reliably survive long enough to use the improved cadence more than once.
- Your important ability is limited by positioning or target access rather than cooldown or duration.
- The affected cast does not scale meaningfully with the item's stated benefit.
- A direct damage or defensive breakpoint is more urgent than another ability cycle.
Timing, movement, and hero fit
Across the current all-ranks sample, Refresher is purchased at about 34:22, or 83% through the average recorded match. That places it in the later portion of the observed build path. Compare that timing with the next objective and the defensive answers already visible in the lobby.
Refresher is being purchased less often in the 7d change window (-10.5 points), while its observed win rate moved +0.3 points. The high confidence label reflects 90,879 purchases. These are descriptive results: build cost, game state, and hero selection can all move item win rate without the item causing the outcome.
Dynamo, Lash, Seven currently produce the largest reliable Refresher samples, accounting for 42,722 recorded purchases among the three leaders. Treat that as evidence of common fit, then compare each hero's adjusted result and complete build path before copying the purchase.
