Unruly Magic

1 X
Discordia sends an orb of unruly magic to a location that damages any enemies it hits along the way. At that location it will break down into 6 minor projectiles that fire out in all directions, damaging any enemies hit and bouncing off of walls.

Ability Type: Projectile
Orb Damage: 85 / 135 / 185 / 235 / 285 (+75% of your Magical Power)
Minor Damage: 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 (+10% of your Magical Power)
Range: 55
Cost: 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70
Cooldown: 12s
Strife

Strife

2 A
Discordia creates an area of Strife that damages all enemies hit. If 2 or more enemy gods are hit at the same time they will be afflicted by Madness for 1s, forcing them to attack each other for additional damage. The same is true for minions. If only a single target of one type is hit then it becomes Rooted for 1s instead.

Ability Type: AoE
Damage: 80 / 120 / 160 / 200 / 240 (+60% of your Magical Power)
Madness Damage Per Hit: 10 / 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 (+10% of your Magical Power)
Range: 60
Cost: 60 / 65 / 70 / 75 / 80
Cooldown: 13s

Erratic Behavior

3 B
Discordia leaps a short distance and then creates an area of confusion where she lands that persists for 5s. While inside the area she becomes stealthed, gains bonus movement speed, and her 1st and 2nd ability cooldowns are reduced by an additional amount of time every .5s she remains in the area. Attacking from the area will briefly reveal her.

Ability Type: Leap, Deployable
Movement Speed Buff: 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40%
1 & 2 Cooldown Decrease Per Tick: 0.5 / 0.75 / 1 / 1.25 / 1.5s
Ultimate Cooldown Decrease Per Tick: 0.5s
Range/Radius: 40/15
Cost: 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70
Cooldown: 13s
Golden Apple of Discord
5 9 13 17 20

Golden Apple of Discord

4 Y
Discordia throws her Golden Apple of Discord that damages and passes through minions and bounces off of walls. If the Apple hits an enemy god it will damage them and force them to hold the Apple. Gods holding the apple will become intolerable, causing them to be Crippled, Intoxicated while they constantly boast. At the end of the duration, the Apple will detonate, dealing damage and spreading the effects to nearby gods.

Ability Type: Projectile
Initial Damage: 125 / 150 / 175 / 200 / 225 (+50% of your Magical Power)
Detonate Damage: 200 / 250 / 300 / 350 / 400 (+60% of your Magical Power)
1st Target Duration: 2s and AoE
Spread Targets Duration: 3s and Single Target
Range: 190
Cost: 100
Cooldown: 90s

Build Explanation

Boots:
I value 10 pen more than 10% cdr early game.
Core Power:
Discordia doesn't have a long distance dash or leap like agni or thoth. Therefore, she needs health to stay longer in fights. While her leap is incredibly useful to dodge certain ult and abilities, its a 1 time use and can still leave you vulnerable after leaping. That's why I use warlock's staff.
Pen Items:
Spear of deso is a must buy, pen and cdr is very good on discordia. When you need anti heal, go divine and spear of deso. If enemies are running triple tank or their tanks are carrying the game, get obshard instead of soul gem if following build 1. You usually wont neeed obshard if you go the antiheal build.
Last few items:
I think chronos pendant is necessary on Discordia. Good power and CDR.

I enjoy soul gem because low cooldowns allow you to spam that proc.

However, you can go book of dead if you are getting dove on very hard by enemy jungler.

Soul reaver is very good and synergizes well with soul gem passive as well. If you have soul reaver ready, your 2,1 combo on a squishy will 100% guarantee their death if they have no relics.

Tips and Tricks

-learn to dodge with you leap
[*] you have a leap, which mean you have immunity frames. Learn to use this at the right time to avoid abilities (ex. ymir ult, discordia ult, etc.)
[*] learn to dodge basics and weave around enemies within your circle. You can get some pretty hilarious plays with this.
[*] you leap is very short, it can go over most playermade walls, but no actual walls
[*] late game, you will be using the dash 80% of the time to continue spamming your abilities.


-your 2, 1 combo is devastating late game if you can get multiple people grouped up. Early game, don't be afraid to your combo on 1 person. It still does a good amount of damage.

-when clearing minions, drop your 1 so that it lands on the archers. This makes the archers take damage from 3 small stars, and at least 1 small star will hit the front minions.

-your 2 has a delay, learn the timing

-you don't have good obj secure, but you have a decent steal. For example, if the enemy team is grouped and attacking the gold fury and they don't know you are there. Your 2 can cc them long enough to drop your 1 to steal the gf and deal a big chunk of damage.

-You are an average early game god. Good mid-game, and very good late game.

-Your ultimate is hard to use. Here are some tips:
[*] your ult is best used at close range because it is the easiest to hit. most of the time, you will want to combo off of a teammate's cc to hit your ult.
[*] try not to use your ult to snipe people. If you have to though, here are some important tips:
- you won't hit the ult if they are paying attention to you (aka make sure their back is turned)
- make sure their dash is down. You cannot predict and properly use your ult if they still have their dash.
[*] Use ult at the proper time. This just comes with experience. My biggest mistake when starting discordia was that I would use my ult too late in the fight. Your ult is very good at disrupting the middle of a fight. Not the greatest at ending or starting a fight.
[*] your ult has a short moment of cc immunity like sol's ult. It's very hard to get the timing right, but it's there.
[*] INCREDIBLY USEFUL TIP - use walls to your advantage. When defending phoenix, drop a ward in front of phoenix and hide behind a wall. You can use your combo safely and can kill the squishies very easily by doing this. Very similar to thoth phoenix defense playstyle.

Summary

-you can use bancroft instead of book of thoth if you enjoy health sustain better
-CDR is important on discordia
-shamans ring is better in arena or other game modes. not my favorite for conquest

Hey RedDanger,

Nice quick writeup and the build seems solid overall. I've still never used Soul Gem but I really have to try it out.

You list various situational items, but in addition to your writeup of the anti-tank use of Obsidian Shard, another alternative that would fit nicely in both builds would be Ethereal Staff, as a possible replacement for Soul Reaver. Just a bit of writeup on that would be nice.

On tips/tricks, you talk about the leap not being able to go over actual walls, but it can in fact...not ALL walls, but some walls, or at least some areas of some walls where it gets thinner.

Solid overall tips for the various abilities and gameplay. +1

hey thanks for the tips man! soul gem is really fun item and its stats and passive are amazing for only 2300 gold. Definitely worth trying on discordia and other low cd mages.

Sure, I'll do a write-up on estaff soon and explain my other situational items. Sorry for the bad formatting.

And about the walls, can you tell me which walls in conquest I can jump over? Not saying you're wrong, I just want to learn about it (also don't want to spread false info). I've only jumped over joust and arena walls, as well as cut corners on conquest.

Oh **** you're right, lol, my bad, yeah, there are only a couple of minor obstacles near the FG and GF that she can go through, other than that, it's just cutting corners.
