OH GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE

(Note this is a joke build, but I find it fun to play as on casual.)

Summary

This is actually a pretty effective build for Chronos or Poseidon. I chose these items because of Poseidon's passive Changing Tides and his move Trident. When I got a full build, sprinted, full passive and Trident maxed, I got to a move speed for 872. Here are the reasons why I picked each item.

Boots of Celerity - The fastest boots in the game. Often used by tanks to initiate, but some Chronos players use them. Anyway, I picked them because they are the basis of anyone who wants crazy move speed. Not to mention: CHEEAAAPP

Gem of Isolation: Is it that you're going so fast the world is in slooooooooow motion?? JK. This is a basic item for Poseidon to keep them in your whirlpool. Nuff said.

Polynomicon: This build focuses on a facepunchy speedy Poseidon. He needs some damage since this build is focused on speed.

Fatalis: Mega attack speed + move speed. More water for more gods mouths, and more "MOVING FAST AND NOT BEING AFRAID OF ANYTHING"

Demonic Grip: Activate Trident, Get to point blank, apply 3 stacks, go to town with Fatalis. More attack speed and pen which this build lacks.

Winged Wand: OOOH NO! That stupid Artemis caught you with her pig! You were able to escape, but its too bad because she suppressed your insolence all over your face. You are now slowed and screwed over... THEN A LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS! YOU ARE MOVING FASTER OH JESUS YOU ESCAPED GOOD JOB! cheap.

Pros / Cons

Pros


-Moves fast
-Doesn't afraid of anything
-Hard to get hit
-AMAZING ESCAPE
-High dmg with auto attacks
-RELEEAASE THE KRAAKEEEEENNN
-Can handle himself in 2v1 or even up to 4v1, 5v1 if pro juke, althought might not be getting pentas

cons


-If you get stunned, your up ####s creek.
-Huge mana consumption early. Reccomended starting with boots and gem of iso for extra manas.
- Low power until Fatalis
- outpushed a lot early.

Skills

Changing Tides = Passive


This passive is very hard to master. You build tide meter with regular attacks, the extra projectiles from Trident charge this extremely fast. At full tide, abilities do around 20% more da-muj. Also makes you surf like the freaking wind.

Tidal Surge = 1


Main nuke. Pushes enemy back and does a good amount of damage. This is good while running around the enemy very fast, when the knockback hits, you can activate Trident and unload for a while.

Trident


Steroid that makes you run real fast. It makes your basic attacks do crazy damage and build crazy amounts of damage, if your at point blank especially.

Whirlpool


Spam this ability when you can. With gem of isolation, they will get stuck in it, move behind them, push them towards tower with Tidal Surge, activate Trident and unload with minions.

Release the Kraken


All of Poseidon's damage. Position them in the center, does ####ton of damage, knocks up (chain with Tidal Surge)

Conclusion

This is my best guide as of now. Remember this is more of a joke build, but I honestly think its extremely effective in casual, your teammates in Ranked may get a little ticked off but not much. You may prove them wrong. People call me pro at Poseidon when I use this build, even know I suck major ****-a-doodle-doo as Poseidon, which is actually my worst god.

I make builds for fast poseidon, But just attack speed dont liked much this build becouse the low dmg on skills even maybe basic attacks if you're not with your Demonic grip where they will have a hig base health.


I couldn't comprehend this. I ran out of breath at the word "basic". Tried to read it again with some pauses like punctuation was used. Oh lord. I didn't understand a single word.

That was my exact build on Chronos in an arena match before.

I didn't die.

Gotta go fast
