As Bran covered, I think they both can be viable on Skadi. Like he also said though, it depends on how you are building them.

I actually didn't intend for this to be a The Executioner vs Titan's Bane comparison. I actually think they both can exist together in the same build, as I covered here.

F Clash. F-itty F F.

That said, for Assault, I'd probably go Bloodforge, Ninja Tabi, The Executioner (unless I was the only physical god on my team, then probably TB unless the other team wasn't building protections at all, then maybe Brawler's or Crusher), Qin's Sais, situational, situational, with a tendency toward Shifter's Shield and Brawler's / Crusher.

Transcendence, Warrior Tabi, Asi (outside of arena), Brawler's Beat Stick or Jotunn's Wrath depending on whether or not the other team has a healer, and The Executioner as well I believe. I don't play much conquest anymore, so I'm more curious about modes like clash and assault. Thanks.


I personally like Titan's Bane on Skadi more than The Executioner. I feel she can do better with it because Kaldr also benefits from TB more since you don't have to hit basics to reduce the protections. I usually go Transcendence Warrior Tabi Asi Qin's Sais Titan's Bane situational. Either The Crusher or Shifter's Shield, but that's just my preference.

In regards to the discussion on if Executioner is core. I would say probably yes. It's cheap and powerful that can shred through most things. Granted if you do not necessarily need the additional attack speed, I would get Titan's instead. I feel Titan's would be more balanced in game, meaning you still do good damage to Gods, but also do good damage to Objectives. With Executioner, you do great damage to Gods, but less damage to Objectives or so I think. Correct me if I am wrong.

That was my fault. I'm constantly reading how inefficient the two are together, hence my question.

Those were my thoughts as well, Newbie. I can see Asi and Qin's giving her more attack speed and she really benefits from the power and mana from trans. I'll have to try that out the next time I play her. Thanks.

I would say in most team comps picking exe is better because other physical gods damage also gets amplified
