The title is a little vague so to clarify, this item mainly serves as a way to allow spirit focused support builds to build economy in the mid game to transition into a late game tempo carry. At the moment, you can really only play support heroes like Dynamo or Kelvin as tempo carries instead of more farm greedy heroes. It could be an interesting experiment to see how to design something that both lets less efficient farmers shore up this deficit while not being an insta-buy for actual farm heavy heroes.
The downside of this item forces heroes like Haze or Seven to consider the current game state and see if they want to sacrifice guaranteed souls for faster farm timers. It also forces them to interact with the enemy team if they want to greed for bigger item purchases in the mid to late game transition.
This is more of a thought experiment than a fleshed out item concept honestly. Would be fun to hear everyone else's thoughts.
