Intro

This build/guide focuses on arena play.

  • Remember, while playing Bacchus, you needn't focus on kills. Keep track of teammates. Make sure everyone stays alive. If you have to waste a little mana for saving another player, that's all okay.
  • Chug, and chug often. Bacchus needs to keep his Drunk o' Meter up!
  • Mana is an issue. Bacchus' skills take a ton of mana. This build insures that you can last well thru a team fight.

Our Items

Reinforced Grieves


For arena, I typically start out with Grieves. This allows for a great early protection boost, and some nice HP5 (:

Hide of Leviathan


This here lets us build up mana. As any Bacchus player knows, this god is the biggest mana hog. In the game. The next few items'll get that problem out of the way.

Magi's Blessing


Builds up Bacchus' health, and adds a little counter CC.

Breastplate of Valor


Our final build up for mana. This should be enough to sustain all of those gulps.

Bulwark of Hope


A nice health boost, plus some magical protection. Especially good in the typical arena team fight.

Mystical Mark


More health and some physical prot. Mainly balances out the build.

Meditation


A mana heal. Again, this assists the mana-hog situation. Use when low on mana or mana pots.

Sprint


Use to assist or flee.

Heath Potion

It's a health potion, you know what to do. (:

Mana Potion

Use before Meditation. And often.

Skills

Chug


Key Bind: 1

Bacchus takes a drink from his jug, giving him additional buffs. Bacchus celebrates when he kills an enemy god, giving him 10% on his meter.

Ability: Buff
Affects: Self
Drunk-O-Meter: 22 / 28 / 34 / 40 / 46 %
Protections: 15 / 20 / 25 / 30 / 35
Duration: 6s
Cost: 50 / 80 / 110 / 140 / 170
Cooldown: 10s

Uses

Make sure his Drunk o' Meter is at at least Tipsy! Anything below is basically useless. Watch out, late game this a a mana killer.

Belly Flop


Key Bind: 2

Bacchus jumps into the air and, not so gracefully, comes slamming to the ground belly first, knocking all enemies into the air and dealing damage. If he is Tipsy, all enemies are also slowed after they land.

Ability: Ground Target
Affects: Enemy
Damage: Magical
Radius: 15
Damage: 90 / 130 / 170 / 210 / 250 (+70% of your magical power)
Slow: 20%
Slow Duration: 2s
Cost: 70 / 75 / 80 / 85 / 90
Cooldown: 16s

Uses

This is a quick jump/hop that is extremely useful for chasing. Or fleeing, if needed.

Belch of the Gods


Key Bind: 3

Bacchus lets out an obnoxiously loud belch, doing every .5s for 2s. If he is Tipsy, enemies are stunned for 1s and their healing is debuffed.

Ability: Cone
Affects: Enemy
Damage: Magical
Damage per Tick: 20 / 35 / 50 / 65 / 80 (+15% of your magical power)
Stun: 1s
Healing Debuff: 25% Healing
Debuff Duration: 3s
Cost: 70 / 75 / 80 / 85 / 90
Cooldown: 14s

Uses

This comes in handy during chases. There's no speed debuff (other than passive attack debuff) during use, and, if you're tipsy, there's a stun!

Intoxicate


Key Bind: 4

Bacchus smashes his jug of wine on the ground, intoxicating all nearby enemies and doing damage. If he is Smashed, Bacchus also gains a physical power buff because of his anger over his lost wine!

Ability: Area
Affects: Enemy
Damage: Magical
Radius: 30
Damage: 250 / 325 / 400 / 475 / 550 (+70% of your magical power)
Intoxication Debuff Duration: 8s
Magical Power Buff: 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 / 60
Buff Duration: 5s
Cost: 95
Cooldown: 90s

Uses

This is an amazing CC skill. Use in a team fight to either initiate or complete to get a kill or two.

Summary

So far, we've got a nice quick mana and health build up plus a great Magical and Physical protection. Bacchus' skill set is great for CC, and his items protect against it.

You're ready to roll!

i do not agree with your choice on Mystical Mark.

its an item specially made for killing minions in concuest and to add to ares damage.

its not great late game. it does not add anything in arena.

there are a number of better choices for hp and protections with better passives late game.

also ccr doesn't stack so keep that in mind in your build.
