People absolutely underestimate his squishiness, that is very true and rather unfortunate. He must be played with caution, and running into a fight without some planning or pre-determined plan will get you killed. Assassins are picky in that way, in that they require a considerable amount of thought to do well. This is my opinion, of course.

As for the build, the effectiveness of a build has a lot to do with the player's play style. Even if a build has a lot of movement speed, if the player treats Mercury like he is not an Assassin then they will die a horrible death.The same can apply with a heavy phsical-power build. I am convinced that builds and play styles go hand-in-hand; if one is bad, then the other part will feel that effect. I like to think that my build works well with a cautious but semi-aggressive play style, but builds are also malleable and should stay that way.


I've actually been using your build (or at least most of it) and so far its been working pretty well.

Really? Excellent, I'm glad that it works for you XD

It goes without saying, then, that you do relatively well with Mercury?

Pretty well, though at times I have the tendency to over-extend trying to get a kill.

My favorite thing to do is use his ultimate during a team fight and blast straight through the enemy team, disorienting everyone.

One thing I've noticed is that a lot of other Mercs don't seem to use their 1 all that often, which is weird because I use it a lot (during fights, during chases, wave clearing, a little harassment, etc.)

I find merc hilarious, but I'm pretty much **** as him :P. His 1 + Golden Bow is hilarious and amazing, and works perfectly for jungle.

His 1 is an amazing skill, and I love how versatile it is. I use it more than any other skill and I've gotten some **** for it.

Well, that's just silly. Also, I may or may not be really bad at hitting his 3, basic attacking because I expect the slight range increase compared to normally punching to be a bit more than it is, and being an idiot with his ulti because it's hilarious.

good enough. Yeah, his skills just have weird timing, although the one is similar enough to Ao where I can deal.

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
