I've found that maxing chain lightning first works best, especially if 2 enemies are grouped together. Instead of having wave clearance and good farming at 14, you'll have it around level 7 or 8. Getting ahead in farm is neccesary with zeus.

I also prefer to build polynomicon right after i get level 2 boots. There is a brief period pf getting used to the new playstyle, but it allows you to take towers, buff camps, and ogres down with ease. It will also scare most people off if when engaging you, you pop your aegis shield and hit them with a basic attack doing 200 damage, over 600 by late game.

Zeus is perfect for clearing out stalemates. While the enemy team is hiding under their tower, if you aim your chain lighting well enough and combine it with your ult, you can clear out their entire team. I've gotten many a triple and quadras with this syrategy.

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.
