Chapter Title

Simular to my "Ymir Blue Bruiser" build, this takes a step in a different direction, than what people usually buy on Mages like Poseidon.
For all of you who like a have a fresh take on how you can play Mages and like Lifesteal and Crwod control, well. I got the right thing for you!
The ONLY thing this build doesn't excel in is raw damage, even tho even that isn't the case anymore come lategame.
But it has more sustain, more crowd control, more tankyness and Utility.
This build will make you come out on top in many fighting scenarios, where others build would have left you long dead. It obviously requiers a slightly different playstyle, but if you play it a few times and get the hang of it you can really do some surprising stuff with it! ;)
So feel free to try it and have some fun.

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.
