Introduction

Hi everybody I'm commander123 and this is my first guide on Smitefire. I will be doing Apollo. As i was looking for a build for Apollo the other day i realized there aren't any very new ones for him so here goes nothing. I am fully open to feed back and would love some. Just for clarification if the item shows up twice that means buy up to the second level. This means if it shows up 3 times buy the third level

P.S. This build is still under construction so check in for updates offen

Summary

    1)Items
    2)Skills
    3)Lanning Phase
    4)Midgame
    5)Late game

Items

There are three different builds attached to this guide and I will go over each one

Critical Strike (Build 1)



This build is built around Critical strike items and attack speed for a lot of crits really fast.

Starting items


Tabi (level 2)
Healing Potion
Mana Potion

This is my usual start for all three styles of Apollo. A Lot of people go Death's Toll Tabi and Health Potions but i find that level 2 Tabi and both mana and Health pots work just fine and give a slight damage advantage and advances your build faster

First Back


Warrior Tabi
Asi (level 3)

The Warrior Tabi gives early Physical Penetration and a boost over any tanky gods early game. Asi is for survive ability and helps keep you in lane longer giving you more gold plus the passive is useful in when being gnaked.

Main Items


Rage
Deathbringer
Golden Bow

This is when we get to the Critical Strike chance. The Rage and Golden Bow boost critical strike chance along with either attack speed or movement speed. The Deathbringer gives crit chance damage and 25% increase on Crit damage which is very helpful to the build.

Secondary Items


Fatalis

This gives a boost to attack speed and movement speed which helps you get more crits out faster.

Active


Combat Blink
Salvation

These both add sustainability and mobility help survive


Sustain build



Starting Items


The start for this build is there same for the Crit build


First back


This is the same as the Crit build as well

Main items


Devourer's Gloves
Soul Eater
Bloodforge

This is the meat of the build. It when fully purchased allows you to sustane like crazy and split push and be just a general pain in the butt to the other team

Final Item


Fatalis

Once again for the movement and attack speed bonus.

Actives



same as crit strike build

All out damage



Starting items


Same as the other builds.

First time back


Warrior Tabi
Devourer's Gloves

This gives you a lot of early damage and sustane allowing you to control the lane.

Main items



Heartseeker
Titian's Bane
focused voidblade

This gives you a lot of power and damage which is the idea of this build

Final Items


Deathbrinnger
This finshed up the damage build

Actives


Fist of the Gods
Purification Beads

The Fist of the Gods stuns everybody and Beads prevent the stunning and CCing of Apollo

Lanning Phase



Apollo is a very mobile god and his lanning phase shows this. When lanning make sure to move around a lot only use your The Moves unless you need to escape or chase an enemy down. Yes,it is a good farming tool but it is more useful as a escape or a gap closer so keep it off cool down as much as possible. During the lanning phase the use of So Beautiful is good for poking and whittling down an enemy to make a move latter.

Mid game

Playing as Apollo you need to push your tower down soon then move on to roaming. Grab a movemendt buff if at all posible and go were needed wether it is pushing down a tower or helping gank keep moving around if you keep getting assists or kills you shouldnt need to farm at all but if you do split push to do the most damage to the enemy team.

Late Game

In the late game keep your ult off cool down as much as possible. Why, might you ask well if you keep you ult up as much as possible you can go off and split push while your team goes around the map and starts team fights. Once those start you can use you ult to fly a crossed the map and join the fights with extra damage and a knock up giving you team the upper hand

Salutations

Thank you for reading my very first guide. Once again I am very open to feed back and if you have any thoughts on how i can make this guide better please either comment or message me and i will do my best to address them

Thank you

There's really no need to find out-of-date guides and downvote them, just let them die.

I used the full damage build, and I really loved it. I was not a huge Apollo fan until I found this. When I first used this in a conquest map, I got my first penta kill not from a match of the day. Was so excited. Great builds!

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.
