Zeus, God of the Ranged Trolls

NOTE: don't follow abilities i usually just use auto level and it works very well


This build I have found to be great for middle and lane

Mediation - CLUTCH helps so much for when your trying to get that last few hits on an enemy .... and with this and a health potion.... it can save you back trips so its also great for lane pushing

Boots - many don't choose boots as Zeus due to his shield but i find it easier to escape/gank with them so i get the Mage boots if you find yourself getting killed alot you might want to take the tank boots for armor/cc reduction.. but due to shield i don't finish boots till later in game

Warlocks sash - great hp/mana good for taunting the **** outta your enemies while with staining mana.

Fatalis - for Zeus this is probably one of the best items you can get. the movement speed is nice for ganks and the attack speed makes charge applications ALOT faster which is great for dealing damage.

Doom Orb - Stacks are amazing for team fights

Polynomicon - proc is great damage late game and you might want to buy this before doom orb
but i get orb first so stacks can build

Wall - great for detonate due to reduced enemy magic resistance.... comes in handy end game when your op already

Abilities.

Chain Lightning - Its kinda bad until later in the game when it bounces between a lot of enemies good for applying charges late game and killing creeps early game

Aegis Shield - Great for reflect and movement speed use to get away or to chase down enemies

Detonate - Your most important and strongest ability.. try to wait until you have 3 charge applied to use this to maximize your damage.. with the build above [fatalis] cool downs are reduced by 20% which makes applying charges and detonating alot faster.. also the range is incredible so its easy to get kills on those "lucky ones that got away" from a safe distance

Lightning storm- Amazing for applying charges// try to save for team fight wait till enemies get hit a few times to build charges then detonate to rape entire teams at once!!

Great laning partners for ultsmite
1. Hades.. his ult + yours... they can't get away and they feel thee full force of your wrath + it pulls them all to hades so u can wipe out an entire team in one shot

2. cupid.. his ultimate stun/slow is amazing for your ult and detonate for obvious reasons + his ult does alot of damage on top of yours!

3. Ymir.. if hes good, he will slow/wall your enemies so they can;t escape ur ult and as many know his ult end game hits like a mac truck!



Edit: Odin's ult is also great for lane due to the enemies unable to escape his circle

Team work is KEY make sure you coordinate your ult with your team mates such as the ones listed in the great lane partner chapter

Jungling is not something i recommend unless your mid.. you can often get easy kills/assists when the enemy in your lane teleports back to base

Pros:
Amazing range on Detonate
Fun to Play
Massive Damage output
Great for mid/lane
OP as hell late game
easy snipes kills on people trying to get away

Cons:
Kinda squishy without shield
Charges don't last very long on enemies
If in a lane, your partner must be decent or u will probably get screwed over
