Chronos, The TimeKeeper, it's an Hyper-carry god, and have one of the strongests late-games in Smite.
Pros:
Hight mobility.
Hight single target damage, good burst.
Many buffs with Accelerate.
Great Split Push.
Cons:
Super Squishy, specially in early game.
Easy to counter it's Rewind with burst damage as(
Loki/
Poseidon).
No inmunity to cc or slow (Unless ult or items).
No Dash/Jump.
Wheell of Time(Passive): This passive is so usefull, it can give you 4 different buffs when you activate Accelerate:
Sect.I: This will heal you a bit over time for 7 seconds. usefull to keep the sustain in Solo.
Sect.II: This section will let you to spam as much habilities as you want without using any mana.
Sect. III: Maybe this section can seem like the best one, but if you want to do damage as chronos i will recomment to use the Auto-Attacks, and use section IV, anyways it can be usefull to take down out of range enemies with Time Rift.
Section IV: IMO this is the most broken over the others, as it gives you +35% of your total AP on Auto-Attaks Damage. This is way more than the Telkhines Ring passive, cause it gives you 40 of pure damage, not percentage.
Tume Rift: this is the main damage skill of Chronos, it's a pretty tiny area so it's not really easy to hit, but you combine Stop Time to stun them and make it easier.
Accelerate: This skill will activate your passive and give you Movement and Attack Speed, use it intelligently since it is the only "scape" you have.
Time Stop: This skill will slow and then stun your enemies, it seems cool but this can became a problem, since if the enemie evade the slow wont get stunned. This means that an item as Winged Blade can counter this, as a fact Loki's 
Vanish can do this aswell, but only if he uses it at time.
Rewind: Chronos don't have a real ult may you think. Well thank god, if not he would be completely OP! Anyway, this ult can save you, but keep in mind that animation lasts like 2-3 sec. Also it will reload all your Cooldowns.
Starter Explanation:
As you can see i use the "Main" mage starter for mid, but not for solo, this is because you will need the Shoes of Magi mobility ASAP in a longer and less accessible lane as solo than mid.
Core Items:
Shoes of the Magi: Since this shoes got their penetration back I prefer this ones over 
Shoes of Focus because 2 cd items as Chronos Pendant and Breastplate of Valor will give you the top of CD.
Warlock's Sash: This item will let you to survive more as an Hyper-Carry, maybe letting you hold a Loki burst for example.
Chronos' Pendant: This item will give you cooldows and this is always a good choice, since you can chase, poke and disengage more.
Demonic Grip: This item will give you enought penetration for killing almost everyone since your Base attack-speed with Accelerate it's really high.
Defensive:
Breastplate of Valor: I recommend you to get this item if the enemy got a loki, kali or any other carry over the adc, specially if you got a loki in the solo lane, it can be a real pain for you!
Bulwark of Hope: I don't really like to get this item, but it can be crucial if the enemy team got 3 or more magical damage gods.
Offensive:
Obsidian Shard: This item can give you more penetration, pick it only if you see that them got too much protections.
Telkhines Ring: This item will give you damage and attack speed, which is good, and it's passive can help you in the late carry.
Book of Thoth: Stacking this item and Warlock Shash would mean that you have a ton of damage.
This is the weakest stage of the game for Chronos, you won't be weak anyway, and most of times you will get ahead in push and poke over the enemy on early game, but the fact that you don't have any scape will make you a great candy for the enemy jungler.
You will do in this stage so much damage yet, but it will be mostly Skill Damage with your Time Rift Spam. You can try to rotate mid as a solo laner if it's in problems but take care in jungle about a gank. I will recomment getting 
Ward or 
Sentry Ward and Split Push.
You have an ADC playstile, so keep back of the frontline and try to land auto's and skills while keeping you safe, if you see that them wasted so much CC ults (For example) or Burst damage skills you can go in and try to crush them, if something goes bad trust in your ult.
Then you will have 2 options, going back to the fight with your CD back or going away, that's your choice.
Try to be tricky and Split Push a lot, that will be annoying for the enemy team.
Chronos is not an easy god, but it is so strong. Don't worry if you die a lot in the initial games, it needs some time to get on this god and work good with it, practice is the only way!
If you have any question/suggestion tell me in comments!
Bless.

Yep, this can work pretty well, the fact is that i like to be agressive, so i prefer hp to keep me alive, specially vs carry's or "instakillers" like
IMO Doom orb can work really well specially versus squishy gods, letting you to poke them so hard with your skill combo in early game. Which can grant a good snowball with chronos. :)
