Why

Build based around achieving the highest amount of shield health possible and either protecting it with block stacks against physical or with damage reduction against magical. Magis can be funny with Hide of the Urchin because you get two bubbles. Bloodforge can be a tough sell since you're building full protections so can be switched as needed. High health and protections to maximize shield health are a must followed by CDR for ult and barrier uptime. CCR and speed are just nice things to have. GLHF.

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.
