Introduction

Hi, I'm a SMITE Jungle main and I'm here to bring you my best Kali build I have to offer. I will be explaining the crazy items that aren't usually used on her and the pros and cons of this build. This is honestly a very great build for damage and I think you should give it a try.

Items

First off, is Golden Blade. I know this is becoming a more and more popular item with Kali but I need to make this clear !!SHE NEEDS THIS ITEM, NO EXCEPTIONS!! Her camp clear without this item is terrible so it really helps her keep up. Next is Hydra's Lament. This is simply because when you engage, you want to stun, AA, 2, AA, AA, AA, and so on. Hydra's give major bonus damage when you AA cancel because of it's passive. AA stands for Auto Attack/Basic Attack. The last item that may seem confusing with Kali is Toxic Blade. I sell boots for this item because both items give movement, and you need the Anti-Heals. You can get the speed potion after a while if the game goes on too long so you can go super fast.

Pros / Cons

Pros:

    1. High Burst Damage
    2. Can stay on enemies
    3. High Mobility
    4. Some cooldown reduction

Cons:
    1. No lifesteal

Team Work

I felt like I needed to include this one just because Kali can't run in and 1v5. PLAY WITH YOUR TEAM PLEASE. She has a very bad early game but has an exceptional late game. Playing with your team can and will work wonders.

End

Thanks for reading, I really appreciate it and I hope you enjoy. If you have any questions/comments, feel free to leave it in the discussion tab and I'll try to take a look at it. Have a great day!

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
