Introduction

Hi, it's me. I am new to smitefire and I am still getting used to how these things work. I am excited for you to read my guide and I hope you enjoy.😀

Introduction to Cupid

If you have never played Cupid, you are in for a treat. Cupid can be a really fun and easy god to play. Cupid can make or break a team fight and if played right can dominate games.

Pros and Cons

Pros
•Has decent early clear.
•heart bomb can also stun
•has self and team healing
•has a dash that has buffs
•has a very large cripple and stuns


Cons
•can be bullied early
•can fall behind if you clear wave incorrectly
•very squishy
•slow start

Abilities

For Cupid he is highly reliant early game on hitting his heart bomb. His heart bomb can poke people out of lane and does really good damage. Max this ability first. Once you have maxed your heart bomb put a point into your Fields of Love then proceed to level your healing. Level your dash last. His passive is very important. The stun it gives is essential to your late game because it will guarantee basic attack hits.

Build

For me, you can build Cupid two ways. Ability based or basic based. On the ability based you built to make your heart bomb and fields of love hit hard as well as have nice basic attack damage. You can also build him basic based. You build him with damage and attack speed. Use your heart bomb and passive to stun and shred people.

Early Game

The early game is where you need to be careful. Laning could be difficult if done incorrectly. Early game, if possible use your heart bomb on the back Archers to avoid there damage. Clear waves and buffs to farm efficiently. DO NOT DIE. A behind Cupid is about as useful as a dead Cupid.

Mid game

When you get to mid game you can start being a bit more confident. Your heart bomb will clear wave and will do really nice damage to the enemy carry. Plus your build will boost your basic attack damage and heart bomb damage. His ult is devastating in the mid game so use it wisely.

Late game

Late game Cupid's basics hit hard and so does his heart bomb. His ultimate also does a lot of damage but not enough to kill a whole team. His ult late game has the best potential of any Hunter to set others up for kills. For example, a Cupid ult when paired with a Zeus ult is devastating.

Outro

So that's my guide and I hope I didn't do too bad for my first time. I am new to this and did not know how to use many of the features that other guides use. Thanks for reading!
