Hey man, really like your build but as bran was saying there is too much lifesteal. I get doing bancrofts and typhons, understandably I still have that in my guide. But maybe replace magus with something else considering it gives lifesteal but also I feel a different item would be nice like staff of myd or maybe just replace power with a nice Mantle of discord.

SleepingMisery | October 22, 2021 6:16am
Then I guess you'd have max cooldown which some people disagree with, so if you wanna use Mantle or staff of myd I'd get rid of chronos pen and maybe replace it with warlocks which is my key item as of late in solo and mid.

SleepingMisery | October 22, 2021 6:30am
Whoops, you'd have 30% cooldown my fault. If been so used to building Mantle and myd with eachother.

You also might get messaged mid game if your playing solo full power with no defense. Because if your team is losing they'll most likely blame the fact that you guys lack a second tank

I haven't voted but that's too much lifesteal for Hades. Anti-heal is going to cut into part of the function of 4 of your items, not to mention your 3.

There are some other issues, such as Chalice of Mana especially for Solo. If Mid, no beads. Beads should be taken over Aegis in most situations.

would you say even 2 in only some situations or would you feel like depending on the two that plenty of builds would be valid with 2 lifesteal items on him?

Branmuffin17 (400) | October 22, 2021 2:16pm
Situationally, I'd say 2. I'm not sure how good Vampiric Shroud is since the nerf. As SleepingMisery said, Bancroft + Typhon is the old-school combo and can still be used. That said, you're not stuck on just these. You could go Shroud + Pythag's, Shroud and just Typhon's, Shroud and just Bancroft, or that old combo.

In solo lane, you really are going to want more prots though. I wouldn't suggest blending a build for both Mid and Solo, the mid one can be more squishy (though probably safer with a late Mantle), while the Solo one should consider more prots, and probably shouldn't bother with Magus.

Yes I do agree I’ve been looking over some of the other builds and comments and I completely agree; thank you for your time looking into my build. I’m not going to lie I got a little upset once I saw another hades build doing better then mine (lol) but I understand why that would be.

Out of 8,000 people you were the only person to dislike and you did it without any reason

People don't give feedback on dislikes..they just give their thumbs down and provide no constructive feedback. There are plenty who will reserve vote up/downs until after providing feedback(usually constructive) and give you a chance to make modifications based on that input or to allow you to explain your reasoning and if that reasoning is sound enough they will still vote you up. Unfortunately, the vast majority will just look at a guide and vote and be on their merry way.

Nearly 8 months later and yours is still the only dislike, without any reasoning on top of that. It is quite hilarious to look back on the stupidity of this comment

Ok who disliked and why?
I’d appreciate some context in order to learn and help others learn as well

Unfortunately, you'll probably never know. I think I can only recall one instance where a poster told me they were going to have to downvote a guide and gave me all the reasons. I like your willingness to try and find out though, since that did allow me find out why with my guide.

Please let me know what you think it’s my first time making a guide and it’s a build I quite often use if it’s similar to another I promise I wasn’t trying to steal it or take extra credit I just enjoy hades and hope everyone likes him too
