Introduction

This build is my second build, early game you want to get tons of farm so you may want someone to help you get blue buff. In the earlier parts of the game you will be a higher level than the other team, making your base skill damage higher allowing you to secure kills (or ks.) You will also have high defense so they will be unable to do too much damage to you.

Mage Build:
During the early game you want to play very passively unless you see opportunity. The chance to get fed with Athena is too good to pass. However if your not careful you may end up feeding.

Items

When using the items in this build you may notice that the items passives gives said item the ability to block an attack. Combining this ability with your passive ensures they have to hit you at least 4 time physically and 2 times magically before they can do any damage(not including bulwark of hope.)

Mage:
Your items as a Mage gives you decent defense and some health(Ethereal Staff.) Athena has a lot of health already and with an item like ethereal staff your power will go up a lot.

Skills

Although I did not tell you specifically which skills to level up this is the order it should go: prioritize your 3 and your ultimate, than go for your 1 and next your 2. You should first place your 3 doing the initial damage than use your 2 too draw them back in for the detonate. Your two can also be used to pull an annoying enemy off of your teammate. Also keep in mind when they are confounded they are automatically basic attacking you.

Mage Build:
Practically the same thing except your much more squishy so you may not want to pull enemies off of your teammates unless absolutely necessary.

Pros / Cons

Pros
Your untouchable with about 3k health
You can initiate and join team fights really well(especially with your ultimate)

Cons
No damage whatsoever even with rod

Mage
Pros
You do tons of damage
You have an escape,as well as an initiate, also a pull
Global Ultimate

Cons
Your kinda sorta squishy

Team Work

Your ultimate does a crazy amount of damage so it is best to use it in team fights. When ulting your teammate must be aware of how to effectively use your ultimate otherwise it is useless. Your ultimate can also save an ally who is in danger of dying and maybe kill the enemy pursuer. In team fights you should initiate but as a general rule only do so when your passive is maxed out.

Mage:
Play it like Guan Yu or any other melee mage. Play carefully and ony attack once they have focused your tank. you can use your ultimate on your tank when they ult(or initiate the enemy.

Summary

In conclusion you are a great tank and you are very hard to damage please comment any suggestions and as for abilities... go with your gut.

In conclusion you are a great mage and produce very good damage please comment any suggestion and as for abilities... go with your gut.
