Why are you picking up the 3 2nd and not his 2? I mean personally I get my 2 first in conquest and then my 1 to help with lane clear because you're able to get more stack potentiall with his 2 for his passive than with his 1 AND it can help push enemies back if they're being aggressive. Just curious why u grab the 3 in that order

Big Damage (37) | August 9, 2020 7:25am
Overall it's situational it can be either or but I find myself picking the 3 at level 2 because it has more damage output considering it does 2 hits for a total of 120 base plus 60% scaling (if you have any power that is, which is unlikely). You get just as much passive stack potential with higher damage and mobility in a trade off for the CC you get. I would get the 2 into a comp where they don't have much low level peel, like an Ares plus Artemis or something along those lines.

Kriega1 (143) | August 9, 2020 7:37am
3 may be more direct damage but you're not counting the extra damage you're allowing your adc to get off with the root on the 2.

Kriega1 (143) | August 9, 2020 5:58am
You should definitely be starting the 1 at level 1, not the 2. Helps for wave clear and for reducing the enemy adc's clear, and 1 is 14 sec cooldown at lvl 1 while the 2 is 18 sec cooldown. I'd also get the 2 at level 2.

I don't see the point of Breastplate, just get Pridwen instead, especially since you already get Sov just before it.

Big Damage (37) | April 30, 2020 5:33pm
Yeah I mean I don't really like Breastplate of Valor as an item but it's just there to balance the prots and give 20% CDR, if the team were askew towards magical I suppose it would be more worthwhile to pick up, thanks.

Devampi (105) | May 1, 2020 10:25am
if you grab pridwen, you can grab some damage mitigation and ccr in the form of Spirit Robe.

Also I am kinda missing Relic Dagger and think it's a "less selfish" option as cdr pickup then Genji's Guard

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.
