Chapter Title

Hello. This is my Amaterasu guide. Amaterasu is an amazing Warrior with good CC, damage, and a useful aura. She can deal massive damage, tank, and act as utility all at the same time. Discover how to become a god at Amaterasu, the Sun Goddess!

Items

Warrior Tabi:This is the absolute best pair of Yeezy's in the game. It gives you a whopping 40 Physical Power, which boosts early game damage and is sometimes the only damage a solo laner gets. Nothing else needs to be said.
Reinforced Greaves:This item is the tankier alternative to the Warrior Tabi for solo laners. It provides 10 Physical Power, 100 Health, 20% CC Reduction, and a maximum of 18 Protections. This is an amazing tank alternative to help sop up damage for your teammates.
Breastplate of Valor:Debatably the best Physical Protections item, it offers 65 Protections, 300 Mana, 10 MP5, and 20% CDR. This is the item to get first if the opposing solo is physical.
Genji's Guard:This item is similar to the Breastplate of Valor and offers 150 Health, 70 Protections, 40 MP5, and 10% CDR. A good first item against magical solo. (Note: You should always get both Genji's Guard and Breastplate of Valor. Just get the corresponding one to the enemy solo first.)
Sovereignty:A basic support item that provides decent Physical Protections, HP, and HP5. Good aura to keep your allies healthy.
Heartward Amulet:Same as Sovereignty, but magical. gives very good magical protection, HP, and MP5. Also has the same useful aura, but with magical protections and MP5.
Jotun's Wrath:Standard jungling item that offers good Power, Penetration, Mana, and 20% CDR. Doesn't have to be first, but should always be in build.
Crusher:A very powerful item in the meta since Season 5. Good Penetration, Power, and AA Speed. Also deals a little extra damage when you use abilities. With a full combo and a full build, you can do up to 200 extra damage with Crusher's passive.
(Note: For jungling, you should get the tier 1 item when you first exit fountain, but during first back, build Warrior Tabi, and then start building on your tier 1 item. for AA build, build katana instead of mace.)

Pros / Cons

Pros:
High CC
High Area Damage
Good Teamfights due to aura
High mobility
High sustain with one
Can get 35 free power from fully upgraded one
Cons
Wrong stance at the wrong time could is a large disadvantage
Dash blocked by enemies
