Introduction to Guan Yu Uleash Destruction upon your Foes

Hello everyone BeastsFury here this Guan Yu guide the military mastermind build has given me a lot of success wining lets see if i can share this wisdom so that you can win matches getting your dive tower kills i hope this helps you.

Item build Order

I first off get 2 tier of boots of the Magi and 3 Mana potions this helps me stay in the lane early on now you need to make a choice both work well do you want to get the Orb of Destruction early on to get those stacks be warned stacks are lost upon death or get Orb of gem of isolation. lately i have been going Gem of Isolation due to the newest patch's and securing early kills due to its great synergy with Guan yu's Warriors will the slow stacks then follow up with taolu assault.

Core item build order
my core build as follows Boots of the magi tier 2 and 2 mana potions doom orb then warlocks sash followed by meditation IF NEEDED of not get the polynomicon, Gem of desolation rod if tahuti and to finish off your build a Chronos pendent.

Skills

The Skill order is 3 Taolus Assault 2 Warriors Will 1 Tranquil Gift then 3 then 4 Tactician's Advantage then 3 again 2,3,4,3,2,2,4,2,1,1,4,1,1,4 this is the build that i created hope this helps.

Summary

In all Guan Yu played dps is a force to be reckoned with has great he can be played 3 ways Tank support or dps if you are interested all make his other builds

Ranked Play

With ranked play pretty much the same but be more cautious do not go for kills before level 3 not much else that i haven't covered good luck and have fun my rating is 1480 not the best but decent.

Pros / Cons

Great heal
nice slow
great passive
excellent ultimate

Cons his cool down on his abilities is a bit slow in my taste that's the only con i can find.

Creeping / Jungling

Always try and get these 3 buffs Blue, Red, and the Fire giant buff.

Note Guan you can kill towers at level 9 with the green and yellow buff and you need a health potion to do this i do it sometimes if the team agree;s on it.

Team Work

Stick with your teammate durr lol heal then up in group fights always be one of the first to attack or gank with your ultimate. if you are above 70% health and your enemy god is below 25% you can easily tower dive kill and dash out with your 2.
