Introduction

Hello I'm CJMighty and this is my kukulkan build, if you want to play with my my user is CJMighty :D NOTE: This can be used in Conquest, Seige, Joust, and Arena.

Pros / Cons

Pros

High Magical Damage
Great lane clear
Decent Penetration

Cons
Very Squishy
Very slow at early game without boots to start

Items

Book of Thoth
I build this first so i can start stacking early, I always build this item on almost all mages.

Shoes of Focus
Next we need boots, i used to do Boots of Magi but since they added the 250 mana to them i decided it be best for Kukulkan to use them because of his passive.

Spear of the Magus
This is the next thing you need we are going for as much power as possible so this gives +40 and 15 penetration which is nice.

Bancroft's Talon
This is another item that is a must, as kuku you are bounded to take some damage. So with this the passive--For every 1% Damage taken you gain 1 additional damage. This adds up trust me.

Rod of Tahuti
Ok some people like to save this for last or build this to start, but if you just build it around second to last it will do wonderfully. This is just the greatest thing for a mage to have +125 magical damage is just a lot.

Soul Reaver
This is your last thing to be built it gives mana and +100 magical damage, plus it can make are Spirit of the Nine Winds or Whirlwind super deadly because of the passive were when gods are hit by your abilities they take 15% of their maximum health.

Skills

This is your basically if your opponent is running at low health pop this on them, and you have a good chance at getting them . This is the second skill you max out.
This is your getaway or if you want to rush up and pop your Whirlwind on them. Upgrade this last after Whirlwind and Zephyr
This is one of the skills that make Kukulkan so op. It does a ton of damage expectantly on assassins or mages.
One of thee most op Ults in the game. At full build this can do almost 2k damage. The only problem is that this is a hard ult to land. EXAMPLE:lOKI ULTS ME I POP MY ULT STRAIGHT AFTER STUN KILLS HIM INSTANTLY.

Summary

Thats my kuku comment below on your suggestions thank you!

That was worded wrong my bad. I meant that you can deal more damage with it than without it.

It helps with the early game and poking, allowing 1-basic-3(maybe).

About Soul Reaver, it's passive procs from any damaging ability with a 60 second CD.
So, no matter if it's a tick of Whirlwind or Spirit of the Nine Winds, the proc will have the same effect.

About Polynomicon, if you can use it's passive (for example, a basic attack right after Zephyr,
then this item is the best, damage-wise, among the lifesteal items.
If you can't / don't / forget to use it's passive, then Bancroft's Talon is better.

Poly procs is really strong with him, but rarely better than his one.
Kukulkan basic attack, at level 20, does 63 + 20% damage, with Poly, it becomes 63 + 80%.
Since Zephyr does 240 + 60%, your Polynomicon proc becomes better than Zephyr once you reach 885 power.
Which is very late game, and not with this build (841), unless you have Red buff / Fire Giant.

You do not seem to understand the point of "starter items". It is the VERY beginning of the game, the first items to buy with 1500 gold. You cant get Book of Thoth with 1500 gold. So put starter items, then get it on your first return to base if you can.

Soul Reaver only does extra damage ONCE, so a Whirlwind only helps one tick of damage, not the rest. Spirit of the Nine Winds is very strong anyway, so it really is overkill. The 60 seconds really makes it useless anyway, and the ult is REALLY hard to hit anyone with.

Have you seen my text on Polynomicon, besides have you ever tried it that way? His one slows them for an easy basic, easily applying more damage than the one alone. It is also a very good lifesteal item since it has the mana that bancraft's talon doesnt have. (You have a lot of magical power for the passive. 60% of 800 power is no joke.)

Try it before saying its not good.

Soul Reaver isnt as good as you think it is on kuku, since if you use Whirlwind the damage procs once for minimal damage and you dont get another chance for 60 secs. Also please dont put Book of Thoth as a starter since you clearly cant. Get an actual starter then get Book of Thoth later. Get lifesteal earlier, with Polynomicon, which gives your 1 a purpose and adds mana. Without lifesteal earlier, constant pokes can get you killed.

I found that i wanted to build stacks early thats why i start with that and Polynomicon isnt ever good on him like other mages EXAMPLE: Poseidon. Normally you wont finish someone with a basic attack your Whirlwind will or your Spirit of the Nine Winds. I also seen the benifit in that extra damage from Soul Reaver can help so much, even if it does only come up ever 60 seconds

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.
