Chains 'n Flames Concept

Want to toast up a Ratatoskr? Look no further. With the Chains 'n Flames build you can ravage your enemies one on one or in team fights.

The key to obtaining any notable damage with Ares is in his passive. Ares gains 30 magic power for every Tier 3 aura item equipped. Giving him a very unique ability to utilize team building aura items while achieving respectable sustaining damage. Aura items also differ greatly in effect, giving you the unique position of being able to tweak items slightly to the properties of yours and the enemy team.

Movement. Due to Ares passive ability, Ares is one of the few gods who may benefit more from not purchasing movement speed boots then purchasing them. Instead try the movement speed aura item, to provide high additional magic damage. While running smite, and obtaining the movement speed buff when possible.

Enjoy and good luck.
