Introduction

Hello Smite players ! I enjoy playing Hades so tried different builds to reach his full potential and here I am and I hope you will like it.
I think all the guides have the story about Hades so I don't want to bore you with all that stuff.

How to play Hades

Hades is a very strong god that can kill you in a few seconds if you don't pay attention.
I will explain you step by step how to win with Hades.
.So the first step to win and the most important one is to farm.
Why ? Simple if you farm you will get gold and experience.If you get gold and experience you will increase your level and buy more items if you have a high level and a lot of gold you can't lose no matter how hard the enemy tries.
It's very important how you have to use Hades skills.If the enemy is not in your range of skills you will hit the minions just with hits no more no less because you don't want to enter in minions use all of your skills and then the enemy will destroy you.Ok so you will use hits until he gets close to the mininos and then you will enter with your 1 and then 3 if the enemy has a dash like Apollo or Neith you will enter with 1 and then you will use the 2 to fear him/her blocking his/her dash and then just use your 3 to heal from minions and damaging him after that he may use her/his dash or atack you.If he/she will use the dash you will wait for your cooldown on 1 to be up then strike him/her immediately and then use your ultimate to finish him.If the next wave of minions are on the lane you will clear them with your combo 1 and 3 and then go for a buff preferably red is it is up.He/Her will get beads or combat blink and your ult will become useless if you don't get cooldown reduction.But let's think about this if he gets a part from beads he/she will spend 300 gold on it but your ult will be up faster then beads so he/she will have to get full beads that means another 600 gold so he spend 900 gold to buy beads in stead buying items.But as you know the beads are up every 90 seconds after they are used and if you go full cooldown reduction your ult will be up every 52 seconds after it is used so guess who spent money for nothing the enemy.If you buy beads witch is a must on Hades you can use them to force your skills to return faster and that is a good strategy on hades to catch someone.If you do same as I wrote up you will get a free win but sometimes you will get anger that the enemy is better then you or he/she is very lucky but don't worry if you keep your calm you can't lose.If you want to be a pro diamond practice him play a lot of games with him.

Counters

A very dangerous counter to Hades is. Yea that is right Neith is very dangerous against Hades if you don't pay attention a second can cost you the win.Why ? Simple if you have you 1 on cooldown and Neith don't miss her stun (1) on you you will be more then that , and don't forget that beads are up every 90 seconds after they are used !
How to win against Neith ?
-Never get close to the circles that she puts them with her 3 if you stay near and she will use her 1 on it it will explode and do a lot of damage to you and stun you so you don't want that to happen you can fool her by getting near to the circles and then get back and she will think that you have the intention to atack her and she will use the stun by the fear of Hades.Never use ult if she dosen't use her jump or you will lose it.Play agressive and make her use her 3 and then just dive if she is near tower with your 1 and ult for the kill.Or you can't do a great combo by 1 and 3 and if she will not use jump just fear her and ult and after she uses jump dive her again for the kill.
Next is. Yea that is right Agni is a very dangerous counter to Hades and you don't want to mess with him because he just full counter you.And in my opinion you should ban agni when you're playing leagues joust because you can't do pretty much against him.
Another very dangerous counter to Hades is.Yes Bakasura will "eat" you but if you use the "Hades vs Bakasura" build he won't stand a chance against you.

Very Important

This guild was created for Hades solo laners in conquest or leagues joust so I don't guarantee 100% that this will work at any mode.
Thank you very much for following my guild and if you didn't know this is my first guid so I hope I didn't suck so hard.Any advice will be very helpful.Hope that you like my guid and sorry if I have grammatical mistakes english is not my native language.

The builds you mentioned are great. This guide can be useful but I think it has 2 major problems.
1. The guide doesn't look good. I mean you don't really use bb-coding. When someone reads your guide he/she only sees words and numbers. Your guides will be much greater if you use it. Search it in Google.
2. The guide has only 4 parts. You don't really explain the items and skills you buy/level up.
I hope you will update the guide and add some cool coding :)

(I didn't use bb-coding in this comment to show you how bad does it look)
