Hey guys, I'm Miguel and I'm a decend player at Smite, I guess. This is my first guide, so please don't be too rough. Comment on what I have failed so I can improve in the future :)
Get Reinforced Boots tier 1 and Meditation when you spawn. You can also buy the tier 2, with a mana pot or two. Depends on your play style.
With the new passive : Blessing of The Nile (Gives Sobek +10 magical and physical protection and +15 physical power) you should get Frostbound Hammer. With constant slow it's very good with the new passive, while adding Health and Physical Power.
After that, buy Breastplate of Valor. Gives some nice mana and Physical Protection.
Get also Gauntlet of Thebes, In total gives almost 1K Health and 25 HP5, if I'm not mistaken.
Get Girdle of Might, as you can do more damage when auto attacking Gods.
For more Physical Protection, Midgardian Mail.
For more Health and Mana, and a little Magical Power Warlock's Sash
In early game always try to have the passive with 3 stacks, and if they are pushing hard, use your Charge Prey to charge them into towers. Push towers if you got the chance, jungle blue, movement and health to be in lane more often. Get back when in low health/mana or alot of gold to buy your items.
Tank towers, push towers. That's your goal. Aid in fights, protect the carries, focus the squishy. You should be pretty Tanky by now. Tank ultimates to protect your teammates and all that things. If a Team Fight occurs try to toss the squishy guys behind so your team can nuke him down.
You should be getting the last item by now. Buy the abilities and pots you think you need, depending on their Team Build. Focus phoenixes and tank them if needed. If all phoenixes are destroyed and you got to the minotaur use all your skills. Do max damage on him before you're pushed back.
Well this was my first guide :) I hope you enjoyed it. Please don't be rough. I tried my best... Give critics on what to improve so I can make a better guide for all of you ^^ Cya Later!

And I think that Creeping curse might be better option to Sobek than expencive Frostbound hammer. Curse has the passive that slows enemies around Sobek by 10 % and when activated it gives 30 % slow (which is more than FBH). But I haven't played Sobek after the new buff so I don't know if the hammer would be a good boost for Sobek to make more CC. Maybe curse and hammer would be pain in the *** for the enemies.
Before patch I used to buy Gem of Isolation after I have bought enough tanky items. It's an expencive item too but it slows enemies from further range which I find it useful for skill oriented Sobek. With tail whip and throw you just push enemies away from you and you are not able to hit enemies for a short time with auto attacks.
The biggest reason to choose Breastplate of Valor is it's CD reduction. It's in most cases a good item to have. Rarely we have only magical gods in the other team.
Meditation... it's hard to say if it's good for Sobek or not. If you are laning with someone who aren't very able to push creeps, it might be a good choise because Sobek skills use much mana in early game. But in the late game Sobek usually gets enough mana from items and regens it well with ult.
But all in all nice guide for a first one. I can see some color there also and I know some people just can't read guides with out them ;)
