Hello, this my first guide so suggestions would be appreciated
this build is mainly used as support, arena, or joust, or assault.
use the situational for solo laning
or use the situational items for counter building

pros

-lots of protections
-burning manny beads at the same time, allowing your teammates to use their ults
Cons
-mana hungry
-cc reduction/immunity will kill you
-basic attack damage is not great
-early game wave clear is slow

Each completed aura item that Ares owns grants him 30 additional Magical Power.

this ability is what gives Ares his power and makes him a threat in battle
the combination of auras also makes him incredible in team fights and simultaneously build defence and offence.
