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.
SMITEFire is the place to find the perfect build guide to take your game to the next level. Learn how to play a new god, or fine tune your favorite SMITE gods’s build and strategy.

Normally, when I play support, I do it with Ymir, sobek, geb or fafnir ... would it be good for them? Or will it only be good for some specific picks / situations?
It's also viable on mages, and people like DMBrandon emphasize its effectiveness...the spectrum of stats is actually very nice for the price, but people just see the high power from
So, when is it viable? When you're not a front-liner Guardian, but rather a reactive guardian that stays in the midst of his team, like
As a more offensive support item, it should really only be built when your team has a significant lead and you don't need the defense. This can help you and your team capitalize on your advantage and finish out the game. I wouldn't really consider it a standard item that you see built often by any means.
As far as which gods can make use of it, I feel that most guardians can do well with this item (as long as they have a significant lead, as mentioned). For example, Geb's passive is very defensive so he might not need to build as much defense to stay healthy and therefore may be able to fit Pythags into his build.
That being said, almost every guardian makes use of the cooldown, mana, power and lifesteal. But the real value comes from how much benefit your teammates get out of the item with the aura. Positioning is an important thing to consider when building aura items, so you want to make sure that if you choose to build it, you will be near your teammates who can make the most use of the aura (your adc, mage, jungler, etc.). So if your team decides to split push, or is spread out defending, you might want to consider a different item.
This is just my opinion. Would be interested to hear others' thoughts.
Well, now I see that it is a too situational item in the supports. I think that because of the statistics that it provides individually (not counting the excellent aura) it can come quite well for a guardian in the solo lane (solobek <3).
Greetings.
This item is great
