Explanation

Here's a theoretical support build for Guan Yu that I created in a wish to have fun playing this God. And you know what ? It does work well ! The idea is that as soon as you get Runeforged Hammer, any slowed ennemy will take a huge amount of damage from all sources. So let's say you team up with a Ah puch or a Poseidon with Gem of isolation, maybe even a Nemesis or whatever, you go in there, and you just have to be there so that your ennemies take 15% more damage. So you want to max your 2 (slow) and your 3 first, put only 2 or 3 points in your 1 during that time and you rely on Gauntlet of Thebes to carry on and heal more. Guan Yu is very mana hungry so you'll get a Jotunn's Wrath later on. You also want Meditation as your first relic for this reason. You get Weakening Curse as your second relic for obvious reason ; get 'em all slowed and they take 15% more damage. The build doesn't cost a lot so you will complete it during mid to late game. At this point, you have max cooldown. You also get a lot of mobility with Shield of Regrowth (you just use your 1 and you get a little sprint boost), your ult and your dash to escape combat easily. Be sure to idealize your passive also. At max stacks your ult will stun and slow. More heal also for your 1 and 60% slow for your 2 instead of 30% which can be very powerful.
