THIS IS SPARTA!!!!! Bellona Solo For Dummies (in the works)

Death's Toll

You absolutely NEED this starter item. Seeing as your Bludgeon is going to be leveled first, it helps with your mana and health sustain. The reason you need it, however, is because it procs on every instance of an enemy hit with a basic attack. Meaning that if you hit 3 enemies with one basic attack, Death's Toll's passive will apply, 3 times. This is different from hunters like Izanami and Rama, who, while hitting multiple enemies, damage in a line, therefore proccing only once.

Warrior Tabi vs Ninja Tabi

These are your boots. Warrior Tabi gives 20 more power than Ninja Tabi, but Ninja Tabi gives attack speed and mana. It all depends on how you want to build. Say you like more of the damage items, opt for Ninja Tabi, as some of them give attack speed, and you'll want to hit more basic attacks to get the full effect of those items. On the other hand, Warrior Tabi will benefit you more in a tankier build, as you need power to help your abilities scale, and most of the tanky items don't give power to work with. In the end, it all comes to personal preference.

Breastplate of Valor vs Genji's Guard

Breastplate of Valor gives 65 physical protections, 300 mana, 10 MP5 (Mana regenerated every 5 seconds), and 20% cooldown reduction. This is great against physical opponents, as they will hurt you less. Also, Mana and MP5 make a great combo so that while you are waiting for your abilities to come back, you are regenerating mana at a faster rate then before. It is also an added benefit that towers, phoenixes, titans, and minions will all hit you for less because they all deal physical damage.

Genji's Guard gives 70 magical protections, 20 MP5, and 10% cooldown reduction. Also, if you were to be hit by a magical ability, all of your cooldowns will be lowered by 2 seconds, and this happens every 30 seconds. While it does lack mana, it makes up for in usability. Seeing as you will pick this item against a magical opponent, their attacks will make your attacks come quicker.

Comparing them, Genji's Guard gives more protections, even if of a different kind, but Breastplate of Valor gives mana. What sets the two apart is the passive of Genji's Guard making their cooldown reduction almost alike.

Now, why is cooldown so important? It is to help your clear. It also helps your boxing, so that you do not have to rely on your basic attacks so much.

	This is a huge magical defense item. 60 magical protections, 200 health, and 20% CC reduction. Additionally, if you are below 30% of your maximum health, a shield will generate, with health equal to 150+10x, where x is your level. At level 20, your shield health will 350. This shield lasts for 20 seconds, and can appear every 60 seconds. This will be in your build to help your survivabilty. Not only becuase of the passive, protections, and health, but the CC reduction makes all forms of CC last 20% less than they would, meaning you take less CC=less damage.
	This is also another big defense. This gives 35 protections of both kinds and 250 health and mana. Also, every kill or assist you earn adds 3 more protections of both kinds, maxing at 10 stacks. There are only 6 items in the game that give protections of both kinds, with 1 being exclusive to magical damage dealers ( Stone of Binding), and 1 being exclusive to physical damage dealers ( Shifter's Shield). This is a prime example of those type of items, with the other one being Mantle of Discord. Having this in your build rewards with tankiness for being involved in fights.
	This one is for the presence. 40 physical protections and 300 health. Its aura deals 40 magical damage to those around you every second. Note: Penetration and protections do factor into this damage. This item has an up-and-downside. Upside, sticking close to enemies will put even more damage on them, and can even kill people. Downside, if there are any mesmerizes in your team (Mesmerize=Stun that is interrupted by any instances of damage), this item will negate that. Kumbhakarna is famous for his 3 second mesmerize, which is a potential stun, but having this near him will negate such a huge CC.
	This is another rare item, one that gives protections and power. 40 power, with 20 protections of both kinds. When above 50% health, you gain 20 power. When below half health, you get 20 more protections of both kinds. This item is good when you have a good balance of protections, but you want more power. You can get this item to get both. It is also good when going in, you have more power, and when disengaging, you have more protections.

======	These two are less power, and more boxing. Ichaival steals 10 physical power from an opponent you hit with a basic attack and gives it to you, maxing at 3 stacks, and Silverbranch Bow does the same thing, but against magical enemies and reduces theirs by 15. It is obvious why it is for boxing. Note: You can still gain power from hitting magical enemies with Ichaival and the same for Silverbranch Bow. This is because it gives power, then reduces theirs, so if they don't have that power type, you still gain power.
	This should be your main damage item. 40 power, 10 penetration, 150 mana, and 20% cooldown reduction. The cooldown reduction helps your clear, penetration ups your damage, and the mana is to compensate for the amount of abilities you will be using.
	This item is one of the premier boxing items. 25 power and 300 health. Also, hitting enemies with basic attacks will reduce their movement speed and their attack by 30% and 15% respectively, for 1.25 seconds. After the duration, new basic attacks will start the effect again, and so on. The health helps your survivability while boxing and the passive makes your basic attacks easier to hit, and their damage output slowed.
	Big daddy ADC damage. 40 power and 15 attack speed. Every basic attack against a god will deal an additional 4% percent of their health as damage. What this spells is that potentially, you are actually removing 5-6% of their health with every basic attack. Note: This is true damage, and ignores protections. This is what helps your damage immensely. Not only are you dealing damage, you are literally taking out chunks of their health. Against beefier targets, this can mean 100+ damage just from the passive.
	Can't forget Grand Pappy Pen. 30 power, and 33% penetration against EVERYTHING. Nuff said.

	Fast as f***boi! 300 health, 20% CC reduction, and 10% movement speed and attack speed. Also, when slowed, it is negated and you move 20% faster for 4 seconds, every 30 seconds. This can help your escape, so that when an enemy is chasing you and attempts to slow your escape, you instead run for your life.
	This is for the sustain. 400 health, 10 HP5, and 10% Cooldown reduction. Every kill or assist you get on an enemy god or objective, such as Gold Fury, Fire Giant, and any structure, will regenerate 3% of your health and mana every second over the next 5s. New instances will refresh only the duration, meaning that if you have 1 second left, it will go back up to 5, regenerating 12% of your health and mana this time. This is good when engaing in a fight and quickly leaving. During your exiting, if you were to get an assist, the effect will proc, giving you a bit of strength left in you to still fight. Never surrender!
	This is for the teamfight. 40 power and 200 health. If an enemy were to be any under CC, they take 10% extra damage from you. This helps your teamfight numbers because CC is EVERYWHERE. This season is full of it, and with it, comes lots o' confirmable damage.
	Hiya! A whopping 50 physical power, 100 health, and 10% movement speed. This has a bit of both worlds, because every enemy near you gives you 5 physical and magical protections, capping at 5, which is the exact size of a whole team. This means that standing in the middle of everyone will make you harder to kill, while you dish out more damage. Truly a sword for Bellona.

	Antiheal. AntiHeal. ANTIHEAL! You don't know how rage inducing it is to see an enemy team with f***ing Sylvanus support, Ra mid, Chang'e solo, Cupid ADC, and your teammates are just dumbfounded at how much they can heal, like, "Wow, I hit him with my whole kit and he's still full health!", like there aren't items in this game that reduce the effectiveness of these abilities, yet not A SINGLE TEAMMATE has picked up A SINGLE ITEM OF THIS KIND, like OMG, QUIT F***ING COMPLAINING ABOUT CHANG'E'S ******* 500 HEAL EVERY 10 SECONDS WITH Rod of Asclepius LIKE YOU CAN'T DO S*** ABOUT IT! JUST MAKES YOU WANT TO THROW YOUR PC ACROSS THE F***ING NEIGHBORHOOD AND SCREAM AT YOUR PARENTS AT WHY THEY ARE ALIVE!!!! OMG F***ING INCOMPETENT A** TEAMMATES Regardless, Pestilence provides 80 magical protections and 200 health. Everyone in a radius of 55 units has their healing from abilites, items(lifesteal and such), and regeneration(HP5 and such), halved. While the item protects against magical enemies, its aura is universal, so it is very potent when enemies try to heal in combat.
	They try to kill you, end up killing themselves. 80 physical protections, 200 mana, and 20 MP5. All basic attacks that hit you are reflected back to the owner for 25% of the original damage, as physical damage. Great for boxing, as basic attack matches are very common in the solo lane, and this item can actually kill. Note: Penetration does play into its damage. The less protections they have, the more effective this item's passive.
	Did someone say, even more boxing? 200 health, 15% attack speed, and 10% movement. It has an aura that reduces the attack speed of anyone within 55 units by 20%. Also, when you basic an enemy, it reduces their healing by 15%, stacking up to 3, for 5 seconds. This not only gives you an edge, pumping out more consistent damage then your opponents, but it also reduces the healing of any you hit, meaning they will regenerate less health when you guys aren't fighting.
