Cupid Build

Attack Speed Starter

Notes Bumba's Golden Dagger is the best starter right now for an attack speed based build because it will provide you with high jungle camp clear and sustain.

Axe will evolve into Bragi's Harp.

Purification Beads will save you during early game giving CC immunity during 2 seconds.

Attack Speed Full Build

Notes Bumba's Spear it is a really good starter because provides you with good sustain when killing objectives or jungle camps, penetration, power and one of the most important things for an ADC, couldown reduction.

Bragi's Harp provides you with strength, intelligence and attack speed, really compact item for ADC's.

Qin's Sais you should always buy this item if you don't know exactly what do build next because of its passive, it is really strong for killing supports and solo laners (tanky gods).

The Executioner incorporating this item in an attack speed based build it is crucial because it will give you attack speed, strength and penetration to burn objectives and tanky gods.

Titan's Bane provides you with with great amount of strength and penetration being a very cheap item.

Odysseus' Bow is pretty cool for farming damage and dealing high amount of damage during team fights in late game. The only problem that it has is that it doesn't provide of any power stat so you will have less DPS.

Dominance provides you with the essential stats that a hunter needs: attack speed, power, mana sustain and an incredible penetration percentage on basic attacks.

This build is meant for competitive because your enemies are supposed to be in communication and playing smart so you will be in most of the cases only hitting tanks or junglers that are trying to kill you. Most of them will have more than 200 hundred physical and magical protections and more than 3500 HP so you will need to have bought penetration items for being able to kill them as quick as possible.

Alternative Relics

Notes Phantom Shell should be bought if their set up doesn't have gods with much CC's and they have walls in their kits like Ymir or Cabrakan.

Aegis of Acceleration it is a really good option because it has low CD. You should always buy it in the games where the enemy gods don't have much CC's or in the case they have many burst skills.

Introduction

Hey, this guide is brought to you by TottiGR! I started playing Smite on PC in February 2014. I have been playing competitive since 2016 and I have been a professional Smite player between March 2020 to July 2023. I have played in different teams like JustF6, Gilded Gladiators or Tartarus Titans this last year in the Smite Pro League (You can always check the SmiteVod Youtube Channel where there's my proffesional games recorded). I have peaked 3500 MMR GrandMaster/Masters in Ranked Conquest on PC plataform every season since 2017 (SEASON 4). I also made Smite Masters (LAN) 4 times in 2022 so I really think I have the knowledge in guiding about the ADC role in SMITEGAME. I hope you find this guide as a useful learning resource for playing Cupid as an ADC.
