PLEASE ANYONE THAT IS AN EXPERT/GOOD AT THE GAME HELP ME OUT IF YOU CAN! - Long read -
Hello, I am new to smite. I just downloaded the game yesterday. I have already unlocked Anhur because he looked like a character that I would play with. I am a competitive player, I usually play on consoles but I seem kind of hooked on smite at the moment.
Being that I am a new player I do not know the terminology used in this game much. I have a 65% understanding of things right now as I am still new to the game. I know how to play the game fairly well but would like to learn all the terminology/tactics to out play opponents.
Here are the basic things I want to learn to get me started.
#1 - TERMINOLOGY - I need to learn all the terminology and what they mean. For example I need to know about the ROLES characters like what TANKS are for ASSASSINS, ect! I have just recently found out what GANK means. I still have no clue what AD means. I need to learn the basic terminology so I can talk with my team members/understand what they are saying. So I would first like to know EVERY SINGLE word possible that people will be saying in this game so I can understand them.
#2 - LANES - I need to learn about the purposes of lanes, what is the difference between MID LANE, LEFT LANE, RIGHT LANE, and what characters are ment for certain lanes. When I play conquest I really have no idea which lane to take depending on what character I am. To me it seems ranged people like RA like to play middle lane but I have no clue why these characters play that lane. I need to understand what lanes to go to and why those lanes are for that character.
#3 - Anhur - Right now Anhur is my main character until I find someone/unlock someone better that I like. I am looking to become competitive so I am trying to get good with Anhur. Things I would like to know is which lane is Anhur best in and why! Also which characters are Anhurs counters so I can spot this and play accordingly. It seems that I have a hard time with TANKS like sobek who was really annoying when they get to close, or people like ymir. Also as far as Anhur goes what is his role for the team/what should I be doing with Anhur to complete his role in conquest. Actually I will have to do more playing to see how I have trouble with. When its 1 on 1 I can most of the time hold my own I just assumed I am having trouble with players like sobek because everytime I get ganked sobek grips me up throws me back into his team mates.
I really need these questions answered by someone who plays smite alot or knows what they are talking about. I am looking to become competitive in the game. These are the things I need help with, if you can PLEASE answer my 3 questions as it will help me out BIG TIME!
okay thanks, what does AD mean though? I still have no glue what AD means lol, I just need to know what lane Anhur is best in, it seems I can go in almost any lane an do good 1v1 most players, I just hate getting jumped 1v1 I can hold off or push most of the time with anhur. I just played a match where I was pushing Wukong back to his towers pretty effectively. Like always one of his butt buddy team mates came to his rescue then I died lol.
AD=Basically auto attack dealing damage. AP is where (like a Mage) their abilities deal more damage, while people like Anhur is a ranged AD. Meaning their autoattacks are powerful, fast, and hard.

Amhur is also a god who can play any lane. I wouldn't recommend him in mid at high level play just because he will get out-laned by Ra or Ao Kuang or even Poseidon.
Ya Ra is harder for me to push back in mid lane I have trouble with him, most of the time I go to the side lanes, Its just that if I see that I have no ranged characters as my team mates I will go mid lane. Sometimes my team mates are stupid and the ones that should be going mid go to the left or right lanes so I will sometimes do my best to cover mid until I they come over to mid.
I can hold off on mid if there isn't a RA or a good mid god, once Ra gets a higher level then me he usually starts to give me alot of trouble. I usually hope my team mates are smart enough to know who should go middle but some games I'm forced to go middle because of dumb team mates. I guess I should use the chat more and tell them to go mid lol.
I suggest you to make an Anhur guide. It's been quite a while since anyone has. Just make a good one. Since you seem to type a lot. I don't see why you shouldn't.

Cool I will I was just trying to find out the best items for him to use. I read some of the guides and it seems that people like to stick to one build? I change my build depending on what gods are on the other team or which god I am facing in my lane.
Ya I will make one since I just been no lifing with him for 3 days lol. I didn't think I would get into smite this much but it seems I am wrong. I usually play on consoles its rare for me to play games on my laptop but smite has got me addicted. Oh and It will probably take me time to learn how to even make the guide XD I just clicked on the getting started guide to show you how to make a guide and it looks...confusing! I'll figure it out though.
