Hi. I agree with what the others are saying.

I still think your start could use some work - that's a lot of potions. I usually go:
Guardian's Blessing
tier 1 of Gauntlet of Thebes (forgot the name)
x2 health potion
x2 multi potion
with either Magic Shell or Blink Rune for my first relic (depending which support I'm playing, and how aggressive I want to be).

Bancroft's Talon is a good item, but not a good item for support. If you're looking for lifesteal on a support, go with Pythagorem's Piece.

Thebes is built from Glowing Emerald and I think it's a fine start for support due to its HP5.

Kriega1 (143) | July 16, 2020 3:18pm
Not really. Also if you start glowing emerald you can only get 2 health pots with HoG.

boogiebass (46) | July 16, 2020 12:57pm
I haven't tried it yet.
I was told T1 gauntlet is an acceptable start.
Is T1 boots better?

No mention of Stone of Binding at all? I find it a pretty effective item and I've seen it mentioned in most guides. With Cthulhu's CC it gets applied almost all the time on whoever you hit.

What do you think about that?

QGodOfDeathQ | July 16, 2020 4:49am

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.
