Hi,
My name ingame and nickname is : Scenecorex
This is my first guide Im making.
I'v played alot of moba's and have enough experience, (LoL,GoME,SMITE etc)
I decided to make a guide of my favorite new character : Aphrodite The Goddes of Beauty!
This might not be a starting guide for NEW players, Although it will help out if you practise.
And..practise makes perfect!
So either you are New or Pro have fun reading this guide and use it well!
Aphrodite:
She is a mage / support character
Meaning she scales really well with AP on her and her Kit provides a HUGE support.
Dont underestimate this Beauty Queen though .. She might look like a support but she has crazy damage as well if enemy is not paying attention.
"Now walk into the lane like : Ey what up I got big boobs!"
Buy her Alt skin, Pop some tags and look for that dollar because SHE IS ****ING AWESOME!
-Loving Embrace- (PASSIVE)
Gaining Aphrodite's favor is a blessing in that 30% of all mana gained by Aphrodite is granted to her soul mate.
"Basiclly this passive gives your linked Ally 30% of your mana regen, wich is great for lane sustain and presence. It works well with blue buff, It also procs on your teammates since you gain MPS!"
-Kiss-
Aphrodite blows a kiss to an allied god, making them her soul mate and giving them both +4/8/12/16/20% movement speed. If the kiss hits an enemy god, they are stunned for 1s and Aphrodite's soul mate gets jealous, making them deal 4/8/12/16/20% increased damage for 8 seconds. Cost - 50/55/60/65/70. Cooldown - 16/15/14/13/12s.
"This is your Main skill wich you will pick up at the start of battle at Lv 1.
Use this on a Ally to Link yourself with him/her and gain a nice passive movement speed buff, If you are linked to an Ally and Land a Kiss skillshot on a enemy, they will get stunned for 1sec + giving your Linked Ally a huge damage boost up to 20% when maxed out!
This is also a great finisher / gank skill with your partner, if they run away > Kiss their *** and stun / finish em off, If ganking > start with kiss for damage boost and stun and guarantee a teamkill.
Note: In Teamfights this skill becomes abit harder to use, since you are going to unlink and link another ally wich has low HP for support, so learn how to use this skillshot! miss your Kiss and it goes on cooldown and that other ally with low HP will die, HIT the skillshot and you can Kiss another time to stun another enemy!"
-Back Off!-
Agitated by all the attention, Aphrodite commands enemies to get away from her, doing 90/160/230/300/370 (+60% of your magical power) magical damage around her and knocking them back. If Aphrodite has a soul mate, they get agitated instead, and the damage originates on them, dealing the same damage and slowing by 25% for 2s instead. Cost - 70/75/80/85/90. Cooldown - 12s.
"This skill seems to be a strange skill in her Kit as most players told me.
But its REALLY a strong and good range ability.
Never use this skill Unlinked only if forced to when laning partner goes for recall and you have to damage creeps.
Link your kiss to an Ally, let them engage, you can either open with this skill or wait until enemy is running away, you will be at safe distance and can detonate your ally dealing the same amount of skill damage + slow the enemy for 25%!
Not to mention using this guide and item set up makes this skill hit for 600-700 easy late game, good for clearing fast jungle camps"
-Love Birds-
Aphrodite calls forth a flock of beautiful doves that fly forward in the area in front of her. The doves circle around all enemies in the path, damaging enemies for 10/17/24/31/38 (+15% of your magical power) magical damage every .5s for 3s. Aphrodite and her soul mate are healed for 10/17/24/31/38 (+15% of your magical power) every .5s for 3s. Cost - 70/75/80/85/90. Cooldown - 16/15/14/13/12s.
"Oke.. This is what makes Aphrodite SO deadly and also an AMAZING Support.
Really only try to use this skill when linked to an ally to gain max benefits from it like all other skills she has.
Its a DOT attack that hits for ALOT of damage, you may not seem to be impressed by the number amount in skill discription but really.. with some AP you do 100+ damage a tick 0.5 sec for 3 sec long!
And yes you qeussed it.. you also HEAL for the same amount!
Its insane sustain for you and laning parnter, annoying to play against, good last hitter to finish of low HP enemey's, always heal up and engage while having 80-90% HP.
It even goes through jungle walls like other skills.
This attack also has GREAT range, it can target all creeps (full wave + archers in the back)
and still hit the enemy gods.
Just AMAZING skill!"
-Undying Love-
Aphrodite pledges undying love to herself and her Soul Mate. While this is active, her and her Soul Mate are invulnerable to all damage for .8/1.1/1.4/1.7/2s. All crowd control effects are also removed when activated. Cost - 100. Cooldown - 90/85/80/75/70s.
"Well well, we have a second Aegis Amulet here, but NOT only for you, also your ALLY!
This skill lets an Ally tower dive and save him those 1-2 tower Hits.
Dont dive to hard at lower level.. as its only 0.8 seconds and you will end up dead + a dead ally if to KILL greedy. Know your positions.
Note: This skill is really needed in Teamfights as it will turn the fight the other way around completly! Dont waste this ult, look for enemy Ults and trigger it on a low HP ally, Kiss them > shield them > spam birds to quik heal up. Its easy one of the best ult in game.
If you waste this skill your team might end up dead cuz you did not save your mage/carry to whipe out the enemy team in time..Train and practise, know your enemy gods!
Aphrodite is not really made for jungling.
But keep in mind that she should ALWAYS go Left lane because you will get blue buff there.
Blue Buff: Its AMAZING on her, it not only gives you MPS but ALSO your ally.
Wich means you both have high mana sustain AND lane presence all the time cuz you can heal with that mana you are making. Dont forget this buff!
Red Buff: "omfg red buff on Aphro!? haha what a troll team, noobs .."
Oke it sounds weird, its SO FREAKIN OP on her, you get MORE damage with your skills, you do MORE damage with your DOT birds, wich means you HEAL MORE with that skill, not to mention your second ability becomes a huge NUKE at range + slow. Its just crazy, get it Mid game and let your ally's know, always go with a partner Kissed, never solo its to risky.
Well I List my items here I took and why with detail discription:
-Boots of the Magi-
"More movement speed, we have a glass canon mage build > more AP more Mpen =
More damage + more HEAL"
-Chronos Pendant-
"This item should be build first after the Boots,
It gives you a good +50 AP wich helps with healing and damage
Also +25 MPS wich stacks with the blue buff AND gives you AND your ally cuz of passive more sustain and presence!
On top of all that it caps your CDR out at 25%! You dont need the CDR jungle buff anymore AND your set to go and heal the **** out of you ALLY.
GREAT Item for her"
-Bancroft's Talon-
"Again im being called noob and beginner? I laugh so hard and troll noobs with this item.
It gives you a whopping +100 AP, wich makes your DOT and Nuke really scary, BUT you heal ALOT more also.
Now combine that with the +12% lifesteal and your birds will tick damage each 0.5 second + lifesteal!? AND heal? wow yea nice, and if your life is low and you got hit by accident by some attack you gain even more AP! wich means? YES! MORE HEALING AND DAMAGE
ITS CRAZY trust me ^^"
-Rod of Tahuti-
"I dont think I need to explain what this Item does, Get it Mid to Late game.
Flat more AP and % AP = more damage and HEAL, crazy again."
-Gem of Isolation-
"Oeww this item can be nasty, Its fun to get + 250 HP AND + 250 mana (wich always helps)
But the +70 AP provide + One of the best passives in game, it stacks with your skills > SO nuke em = 25% slow + 25% slow from Iso, offcourse it has diminishing returns but they will NOT get away, and you can always land some birds on em, damage them , slow them, heal yourself AND your ally, whats not to love?"
Book Of Toth
More MP5 , stacks with passive, More AP = more damage/heal again.
The extra mana doesn't hurt either, great item on her since she benefits from every stat.
The passive will grow enormous late game since you will be having alot of Mana.
Well ..
Nothing much to say here, You are going left lane because there is the blue buff you want.
You can support a Tank, or either a DPS carry or Mage, whatever you prefer.
Depending on how much you played with Aphro will determine with what ally YOU feel most comfort with, take a friend with you on voicechat and rock that party!
My favorite partner for Aphro :
(I might be starting the new META here..*Ahem*)
Guan YU AP Carry!
Wtf Scenecorex you are really stupid and crazy?
NO! Double heal / armor shred / stuns cc , crazy burst from Pure AP guan!
The enemy team will get SO annoyed they either quit playing or Rage Quit or Surrender at 15-20 min , if they contuine to fall start ganking other lanes with your best buddy, he will kill all and you will help him NUKE and heal his *** to full+his heal scales INSANE with AP (for the whole team btw, so late game Guan carry is a burst AP / Healer like you)
-Girdle of Might-
Great for letting your Teammates kill that much faster, Also stacks with your Kiss/stun (+20% damage on enemy)
Its a good kill secure
-Aegis Amulet-
Really trust me you need it, saves your life over and over just when you need it and your ULT is on cooldown!
Pros
*GREAT Support/Healer
*High damage burst DPS (AP based)
*AOE spells , NUKE + Birds both Hit everything in target area
*Sexy God
*Makes Teamfight WIN if played right
Cons
*Sqeeshy
*Needs a Good laning partner
*Skillshots & Ult needs perfect timing, practise alot with her!
Oke well mabye the guide needs some little tweaks here and there depending on Item changes and effects, but this is it.
Hope its readable for english people, have fun & goodluck
Note: Normally in MOBA's a good player has no STATIC build, meaning you always build different items depending on the situation what the enemy builds.
But since we go glass canon and dont need resist/hp and stuff
We can just build this every single match with succes, your are depending on your lane partner early game anyway and you will never engage in Teamfights.
Play passive until you feel really comfort with Aphro, THEN start ganking and towerdiving.
AGAIN : Practise makes perfect!
I hope you guys liked this guide and I will make more in the future in return.
Go and own with the Goddes of Beauty herself : Aphrodite!

Still waiting for a link to those 10/0 matches bro?? You said in the support thread that you had matches like that all the time w/ Aphro. What a JOKE.
Win/Loose ratio will never be good doing randoms ofc. But, you should have at least something near 50%.
Bump
I am acting normal. I'm sorry you can sit there and condescend, make fun, but when someone calls you on your B.S. you have nothing.
You are lying, CDR is 35%, not 25% (you had no idea what you were talking about). You have never had a single 10/0 match, or anything even close to it. You're stats on bird tick are totally made up. You've been playing from beta? That's funny, the account you claim is your main was made on the 5th of this month. Restarting for a better ratio, maybe?
Act normal and read these guides, DONT think you can go making excuses or claim things or harres people.
Again its fine with me, now drop it, Go try this build > or SKIP it.
I am not lying, it clearly works.
You just dont know how to use it, read the guide again and again? Now just act like a grown up and either skip or use the guide like you wish.
OR
make your own guide if your so perfect?
I'v been playing from BETA start .. but its oke.. xD
Im testing and also know what im talking about, again I dont want you to be rude at this forums, you dont have to act childish or anything.
I wish you the best of luck.
The only thing I can tell you = IT WORKS GREAT
IF you know how to play her AND have a good laning parnter (thats what I prefer)
Come across Aphro with Guan Yu pure AP, your gonna irritate yourself to death.
But oke, Xill thinks he knows better.
Again there is no NEED to counter any statment or argue about it, if this guide is not for you then SKIP it!
