Ymir Blue Bruiser

I have seen a lot of people build Ymir full tank. And there is nothing wrong with that. He has great utility and can work very well as a support purely for that reason.
But full tank builds without even the 40% cdr just suck in my opinion. This because then you don't even increase your utility to the max. You are just a fat tanky *** frost giant.

BUT:
Ymir is also one of the Guardians who is really capable of dealing some serios damage and that is what this Build is showing.

NOW:
As you can tell by looking at the Items, THIS IS NOT A MAGE YMIR BUILD. Infact it is meant for support but also for solo if you so choose. Basically Blue pain is a bunch of blue Items, which make you tanky and deal a lot of damage at the same time. So basically BRUISER YMIR.

Finally:
This build is mathematically thought through quite well and provides you with the maximum ammount of tankyness and damage at the same time.
this makes you especially strong in 1v1 since your total power is: "Damage times tankyness", so by increasing both vales equally istead of only going for one you get the most overall power for your god!
(tho you would obviously only build one protection type if you were to fight an actual ranked duel)

What makes this build so good:
-True damage against Mages because of the flat penetration. About 10% more against Tanks, 20% against warriors and at least 25% more dmg against ALL Assassines and Hunters.
-Extremly high Sustain because of Stone of Gaia, especially early game.
-Maximun defense at every level throughout the game while maintaining high damage.
-40%cdr
-A very good amount of mana for maximum spell casting with full cdr.
-A very good balance between damage and defense for maximun total power.
-It's Blue

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.
