Before We Get Technical...

This guide is for the pros only. Triple stacking requires good knowledge of the game and mechanics. If you're not good at the game, press back and look at the ****tier builds and try and win some games. Ain't gonna happen.

If you meet the criteria of being a good player (perhaps nearly as good as me) I shall teach you the secrets of becoming the best Rama player around.

The Items

Now it's time to look deeper into the items I have chosen for this masterpiece.

The 3 stacking items are
Heartseeker
Devourer's Gauntlet
Transcendence

Obviously you're getting lots of damage and lifesteal from these items. Remember, you must never leave your lane. Getting those stacks are too important. Even on low health you can squeeze a few more stacks out of the wave. Ignore your team and continue your job. You are the ADC and you will carry the team forward.

Next item is Ninja Tabi. We need boots, if you don't think so then stop reading and leave.

Now next items are the bad boys, Rage and Deathbringer. Probably the most OP items in the game, combine them and you will become an unstoppable force. At this point if you haven't gotten a pentakill yet after building this then you need to work on your skills and decide perhaps if Smite is truly the game for you.

The Actives

i can't stress this enough. Combat Blink is the way forward. It catches them **********ers off guard and is an easy kill. Next is sprint for going in between their towers looking for a good 3 v 1. Any good ADC player should be up to the task. The other actives are more towards the inexperienced players who don't know how to simply dodge abilities. Purification Beads and Greater Aegis should ONLY be bought if your truly a **** player.

Sorry to say but a definite downvote from me, hopefully you can take some of this advice and make something worthwhile.


Completely agree.
Also, why Combat Blink??? Really, as Rama? You have a dash AND an ult that can reach extremely far! You don't need Combat Blink to catch people!

Seriously? Not only do you demean the other guides but you insult every player insisting that we can only be "nearly as good as you"? Wow , you really seem like one of those people that everyone hates to have in their games, constantly bm'ing them. Please, learn some proper respect ...




EDIT: I forgot to mention the part where you stated that if we haven't gotten a pentakill with your build smite isn't the game for us.

Uh, NEWS FLASH, pentas aren't easy to get. Especially when you say that we have to stay in lane all game ignoring our team... Plus, its not the build that gets you a penta, its more about luck the way you want us to use this build. Plus there's almost NO attack speed and without that you can pump out as much damage as you want but it will still take longer to kill gods...

Um... wow there is so much wrong here. You have no penetration or attack speed. Do you know how much penetration matters? Please read this article and do some actual research before promoting builds that make no sense and saying

Just... what.

Aside from that, here are a few key problems:

-Triple stacking yields a high power stat, with FG and a power potion, you will overcap your physical power stat rendering your additional high power from items less useful.

-Triple stacking will lead you to get bullied to death in the laning phase. You will be severely lacking in power compared to your opponent and will unlikely be able to catch up since they will probably get a large enough lead early game to take down your Titan before late game anyway.

-While high power yields more damage on a single basic attack hit, just one 30% attack speed item will more or less let you do 30% more damage in a given amount of time and build Rage's passive, rather than a power item which will not increase your base power by over 30% given that you have a build of 6 power items.

-Getting boots fourth not only destroys any potential to be helpful to your team and rotate a bit after clearing lane, but also ruins any chances of returning to lane fast enough to be an effective player or escaping enemy attacks.

- Combat Blink over Greater Purification... you've got to be kidding me. How do you expect to survive?

This is the most blatantly untrue fact I've heard in a long time. You can't simply dodge every ability, there is such a thing as a GUARANTEED HIT. Think of an Ares that blinks and hits you with No Escape, or a Ymir that blinks and hits you with his freeze, or even a Bacchus that ults you (you can't dodge out of that ult, its radius is huge), or an Athena who charges you and hits you with her 2, ANYTHING REALLY.

And if you think you're still too pro for Purification Beads, try looking at some actual pros like Titan's Ataraxia and tell me how often you see them use Combat Blink.

Overall, this guide lacks a strong build, demeans players who know how to build properly by declaring yourself 'too pro' and that anyone who builds normally is basically a '**** player' and lacks any bbcoding, sections dedicated to anything but items or really anything of value.

Hi! I've been theorycrafting ADC builds for the summer as well. This build seems...top heavy. You don't need to spend this much gold and time stacking for this reward. Transcendence is powerful, but to take full advantage of this build, you'll need to be in lane until late into the game. Also, starting with Heartseeker will make your build much riskier than starting with Devourer's Gauntlet. The Executioner? Asi? Hastened Fatalis? You have no attack speed, something that ADCs desperately need to do their auto attack damage.

Also, blah blah blah, you need BBcoding, your guide doesn't look great visually, etc etc. Just look at the BBcoding guide on the Craft Guide menu and touch this up. If this build has worked for you, I'd be glad to see its stats in Leagues, but I don't see it being ideal going forward. Good start though :)
