Builds are updated for Patch 7.3, "Grim Omens".

(143) |

Why would a support build mystical mail or is this to counter stealth gods?

After playing some match in arena for learn him and try different item i can say in my opinion that he is really garbage.Really low damage even with almost full damage build,eternal cooldown,really bad ulti.Only good thing is his 3rd ablity that heal a lot.He is so realiant on cooldown..that 30% is like a must to have for do something.i have even tryed an attack speed build with quin and exe but really is bad

(13) |

A few considerations that should be made:

1. Like most warriors, is better built with defense/bruiser items. He shouldn't be built full damage (unless you're playing with him in jungle, but I really don't recommend it since his kit isn't designed to this role).
2. Gods and items are balanced around Conquest, so if you had a bad experience with him in Arena doesn't mean he's a bad god.
3. He's ability based, so I'd avoid aa items.
4. Don't talk bad things about my birb boi >:(

(143) |

I don't think you're meant to build him damage focused.

I am seeing (and experiencing) some good things as full damage as well.

Gladiators Shield (solo) or Blackthorn (jungle)
Warrior Tabi (solo) or Talaria Boots (jungle)
Crusher
Jotunn's Wrath
Hydra's Lament
Bloodforge

With his kit already giving him some CCR and Protections. Jungle would be the best route for something like this build, but depending on matchup could work in solo.

EDIT: I know this puts him over the CDR cap with red pot - Might replace Jotunn's Wrath with Spirt Robe...

(13) |

I am against building full damage on Solo, but in jungle this might work. I mean, if your survive through Horus' terrible early game and clear.

(143) |

Red pot doesen't give cdr, only purple pot does.

Wow, sorry yes your right - of course. But blue buff still would put over cap... But late game probably not happening a bunch

Jotunns + hydras is still only 30% cdr.

Yeah, I Typed... Not runeforged... Blackthorn

Glad and Blackthorn both give 10%

(143) |

Glad Shield gets sold lategame.

(81) |

You generally sell glad late for another item, so that's 10% CDR removed right there.

(143) |

Unless you're King Arthur, where you have an argument for keeping it.

(81) |

Yes, but we're talking about Horus and not Arthur. :P

(143) |

Yes, but you also said "generally", so I felt like inserting my own side-note.

(81) |

"Generally" as in most cases; since Arthur isn't a "most case", he's an exception.

(2) |

I love how this is the only guide for Horus as of currently, but there are millions of guides on set.

(13) |

As a general rule, people enjoy playing with dps/damage classes more than with tank/support ones. Taking this into consideration, its no surprise that Set is getting more attention and builds than Horus.

However, if we took their kits and usefulness into consideration instead of their classes, I think that the situation would be the opposite.

(143) |

Maybe because people haven't realised what ******** his ult is. Nothing like the equivalent of a whole team combat blinking in on you.

(35) |

After tinkering around with the god a bit, I'm fairly certain that he can get good function out of .

His 1 allows him to knock up an enemy and hit them with an enhanced attack, and his 2 stuns an enemy before hitting them with a more powerful cleave attack.

(400) |

Now the question becomes, is an appropriate item for him? He's not a god that's going to look to deal a lot of damage...his abilities don't have good scaling, and even his base damage is a bit on the low side.

His strength is in sustain (passive mini-heal, protection buff, ult shield), CC ( knockup, stun, knockback), and mobility ( dash, dash (leap?), sorta teleportish thing).

I'd expect protections, health, and CDR to be the main targets for his kit. Early glad shield, obviously Blackthorn, etc., just like Vini has it. I think the item options are all solid to start on the solo side.

On the support side, I'm not as sure about the late Gauntlet of Thebes, though I do like the earlier position in the 1st example...also not sure about the Blackthorn in that situation, but I get the concept. Also don't really like in both examples, as I would opt for myself.

But overall a solid general set of items.

I'm not so sure about this. To me he feels very much like a bruiser. Granted, I've only played one game as him.

However, when I imagine myself playing him as Solo, I see myself being able to dive backlines and apply pressure, relying on his excellent mobility to get out if collapsed upon. In this scenario, I feel an item like could be effective for burst damage with his 2-1 combo, saving his 3 for escape.

(13) |

After I played with him a bit, I considered both and Shield of Regrowth as item options for him. However, I feel they're both niche options and he's best served building other items. I'm not saying that these items don't work, they definetly do, but I think some other options complement his kit better.

Bran, for the first build I chose straight after boots so we can have some early CDR, since has guardian-like cooldowns (18 to 14, 16 and 16 seconds respectively to his 1, 2 and 3) but doesn't have access to CDR shoes like guardians do. And if you check how physical supports are being built in the SPL, you'll see that Fenrir, Ne Zha and Guan Yu all use Blackthorn very well. I think can go a similar path.

In the second example, I'd usually build Thebes 4th item, but I prioritized due to the 10% CDR, since it's the first CDR item we're seeing in the build.

And I chose over in the first build because we're not stacking mitigations with .

IF getting Blackthorn 2nd, perhaps might be the better boots option? Because it at least provides some measure of protections, since Blackthorn has health but no prots. But otherwise that explanation makes sense.

I would say that stacking mitigations isn't needed to be effective. Getting Oni doesn't mean you need Spirit, and vice versa, to be functional. When you have pretty high prots, 20 extra prots from Mantle won't make that much difference, and any mitigation will be helpful. You also get the CCR, which, in the CDR build, you don't have any in the rest of your items, so that's helpful too. But to each their own.

(13) |

Bran, I changed the items around a bit. Let me know what you think.

(400) |

Yo Vini,

Still like over in the main Solo build, but of course, preference.

One other thing...skill leveling...in Solo, you're getting 3rd. I'd likely expect a 2nd point into at level 3 for better wave clear. Except for some situational times when your jungler comes in for a gank, and you can then fly to him and unload your abilities, I'd say get that only 3rd standard for a Support role.

In Support, I might say getting Sov 5th is a bit late. Not that it can't be helpful at all stages of a match, but often you're getting it earlier when the static HP5 is more impactful on a lower health pool, along with still being in a laning phase where you want prots against the minions as well. When you're building it this late, I think it opens you up to other options where you might just skip Sov overall. And if you're talking "cooldown focused," you might even consider after Thebes (especially against a 3 phys / 2 mag comp)...opening you up also to changing out Genji for a different item like Pest, or Oni, or even more dual protections.

And again in the Supp role, don't like Mantle as much. I know most item options are situational at that point, so you're just putting in an example item, so that's okay.

And finally...think 2nd is still probably a good idea in Support. Depending on situation, Protector's could be fine 2nd, but usually you won't need to fly to your teammate and relocate quickly, the heal is minor, and the protections are also pretty minor. Fracture allows you to be more aggressive.

Yes, it might. My primary reason behind is the extra MP5, but Blackthorn will already cover it. Greaves also synergizes with his passive.

I agree, but if not stacking I'd only get if against a CC-heavy team.
And I have to say I haven't paid attention to the CCR in the builds I listed. My mistake :p

(81) |

Spirit robe is superior to mantle for front-liners because its passive is up quicker. :P

(143) |

You also don't need to be a certain health threshold, which in combination with the stun means mantle is great for Anti-burst rather than just general damage tanking (though it gives a good amount of protections of both types).

(13) |

Now I know how Pris felt during the discussion LOL.

(143) |

Care to elaborate on that?

(13) |

Sure.

When one person questioned the choice of Bancroft's and suggested Soul Gem, Pris was still trying to defend his item choice. However, when other people started to present their reasons to choose SG over Bancroft's, he had to back off and evaluate if SG was indeed the best choice for the buid. In the end, he swapped the items around.

Something similar is happening here.

(143) |

Oh, I thought you were hinting that we were being some kind of nitpicking prudes.

(13) |

Of course not.

(81) |

Then you admit we're right? ;)

(13) |

Bran and Kriega? Yes.

You? Never. I don't want you to get a big head.

(81) |

Too late.

(143) |

Wait what did Gulf say

(13) |

(143) |

How can I understand the joke if I don't understand the context you based it on? Hence why I asked "what did Gulf say?"

(13) |

But the context is right here!

We're always mocking each other, so the joke is that I'll never admit that Guls is right. That's it.

(46) |

Yes?

Talaria also makes his ult more effective, since Move Speed allows him to get further on it.

(13) |

I did some tests in Jungle Practice, and while MS does affect his ult, I considered the difference between Tabi and Talaria to be minimal.

I even did a full MS build for tests and the travel distance only increases a few units. I need to test this on a Conquest map.

(400) |

This is a great point.

(46) |

What about his ult?

(46) |

Oh nvm its a knockback, not a knockup

(72) |

O negócio nem lançou e o maluco já tem um guia kkkkkk gado d+

(13) |

This is still a work in progress, since the god will launch tomorrow and I still haven't played with him, but I want to drop a build so people will have some sort of reference tomorrow when the patch goes live. With time, I expect to turn this into a full guide, let's see what happens next :)

As always, feedback is appreciated.

I have been playing him a bit and really have enjoyed maxing his heal first, seems to give a bit of fight prio in early/early-mid game. Thoughts on that vs his 1?

EDIT: As support

(13) |

You mean choosing his 3 as the first ability? It is a possibility, but I chose his 1 first so I can help with the clear and CC enemies if needed to. Plus, his 1 is the only ability that decreases cooldown as you level it up.

No, I feel going 1-2-3 wins lane. I mean skill level-up prio: 3>1>2>Ult for support.

I am also playing around with doing 1-2-3-3-4-3-1-1-1-1-3-3-2-2-2-2-4-4-4-4. Seems to give nice early sustain/dueling with a more effective CD in mid-game then a full prio of the heal.

(72) |

I guess that if you ADC can easily clear the wave, then you can update the 3rd skill, but if he don't, then go with his 1st skill.
