Replace Ichaival with Qin's Sais late game.
Your relic options: Purification Beads into Aegis Amulet or
Purification Beads into Blink Rune
Rarely are you going Aegis Amulet or Blink Rune first.
Tap each threat level to view Artemis’s threats
Better clear + better 1v1 in lane. He is going to try to bully you in lane. She has a better late-game though, which is why you pick her.
His ultimate counters Artemis' ultimate and traps if necessary.
You aren't playing to win lane against Anhur, you are playing to farm and not get solo'd so you can be productive late-game.

Arachne is a very snowball-esque character. You can slow immune her webs and ultimate for self peel, she can ult your ult though. Arachne falls off late game so as long as you are warding properly you will be okay. Do not try to 1v1 her at any point in the game.

She has a lot of burst! Good thing you have an aegis. Artemis can also ult her ult instead of burning beads.

He is very painful, like all junglers. If you don't panic you are able to stop his Brutalize by placing a trap under your feet - it will root and cripple him. He is very scary early game but falls off late, the opposite of Artemis!

She has much better clear and kill potential than you do early. Accept that you will have negative pressure in lane... You can slow immune her Spectral Projection and ult her ult.
She can avoid your ultimate just by dashing if she does it in time... which isn't hard to do because Tusky is not the smartest.

Kali is not that much of an issue early game, as long as she is not getting fed. Late game however, you really need to mind your positioning. You will likely be her target 90% of the game because of Artemis' immobility and you need to accept that she will play around duo.
Ward, play safe, and when it comes to late game position properly so you aren't getting ran down.

Like Anhur, Medusa likes to jump in early and use her entire kit.
She has a lot of early damage and clear, something Artemis lacks. Her Acid Spray is nearly impossible to avoid in lane and her Petrify does a lot of damage even if you aren't looking at her.
Medusa can DEFINITELY solo Artemis, especially early on. She will likely dash on you and then full combo as soon as she hits 5, or if she hits 2 before you and you are out of position.
You are able to slow immune her ultimate though and as the game goes on you will find she becomes easier to deal with, as long as you didn't feed early.
Mind your positioning and ward so she can't catch you slipping with her ultimate.

He is just very good, he can run Artemis down due to her lack of mobility. You can Vengeful Assault his slow, and sometimes Sets build Frostbound Hammer so it will help against that as well.
Set also has a slow immune so your Suppress The Insolent won't be very effective in stopping him, especially when he's ulting you because he is almost always in his Sandstorm.
Mind your positioning, ward, etc. typical scary jungler for the immobile hunter.

The Morrigan is very scary for Artemis, early and late game. Late-game she has a combo that will explode poor Artemis if you are not positioning correctly. Early game... she has a combo that will expl-
A fun interaction though: If you Artemis ult a Morrigan and she uses her ultimate she will be hit by Tusky twice because he registers her as 2 different gods.

Hard to deal with early on because 1. he has more buttons than you and 2. he's going to be jumping in and axing you any chance he gets.
I hate Ullr's a lot... but I won't be biased. He's basically going to try to solo you in lane on cooldown. If he jumps in, use her ultimate immediately and if he doesn't beads then trap him and try to kill him. If her ultimate is down I would just safe farm and avoid him.
Remember! Artemis is a LATE GAME god. The challenge with her is getting to late-game. Know your matchups and limits and do not actively try to solo early game gods. If you are getting bullied you can always ask your babysitter, the support, to come and make the mean Ullr stop freezing waves.

Cupid only has 2 damaging abilities, and one of those is his ultimate. Unfortunately for him, Artemis can slow immune his ultimate without using her beads or ultimate. ( Vengeful Assault)
Since you can use an ability that is on a 16-14 second cooldown to avoid Cupid's ultimate damage and mez, you are able to save Artemis' beads and ultimate for his other damaging ability/CC, Lovestruck.
Basically, Cupid is not a threat and Artemis is able to easily farm to late-game without being all that worried in lane.

Rama can ult the CC from Artemis' ultimate, but she can trap him once he lands.
Rama has better early clear than Artemis, but neither are early-game gods. Both are just trying to make it to late-game.
Outside of his ultimate, Rama truly has nothing but his basic attacks. If you get solo'd that's on you for missing autos.
Additionally, Rama's Astral Strike can slow up to 30%, but Artemis is able to cleanse this slow with her Vengeful Assault.

You can play off of each other in certain circumstances (though her abilities are much longer range than yours). You can use Artemis ult to help her hit I'm a Monster more easily.
Her Sic 'Em and Crush proc Artemis passive.

I love Khepri. While hes pulling an enemy, you can easily trap them. Hes also just very good at clearing and pressuring in lane.
Late game Artemis is an all-in, dive-type god. Khepri can let her do that and just rez her if she falls or gets dove on.

PROS Really good team fighting ultimate. Good CC in her kit if you use the root properly. Late game MENACE. |
CONS Bad early clear. Low pressure in lane early game, out cleared by nearly every other ADC in the early game. Very low mobility - easy to dive and gank. You have to be mindful of positioning. Her strength lies in her late-game; if you feed and never make it to late game, you should play an early game hunter. |

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.
SMITEFire is the place to find the perfect build guide to take your game to the next level. Learn how to play a new god, or fine tune your favorite SMITE gods’s build and strategy.

Lastly, a note to combos, because Calydonian Boar has 100% scaling, I would consider popping Vengeful Assault before ulting and get that Silverbranch Bow power. You're trading off less auto damage for a couple seconds for a stronger boar, which I think has better potential since it hits more targets.
Good guide though!
EDIT: After reading my comment over, I felt like I had a slight condescending tone, which was not my intent. My only itent was to provide a suggestion.
Btw I didn't think of your reply as condescending at all but I appreciate the clarification LOL
