Kukulkan Build

Starter Build

Notes gives you enough mana sustain for the early game and the extra damage allows you to insta push the first waves easily.

a necesary relic for as we dont have any ability that makes us CC inmune.

Conduit Gem

Gem

Health Potion

Full build

Notes because it gives you extra damage to destroy after every single combo.

, this item will increase totally our amount of mana and because of his passive we will keep getting more inteligence for the rest of the game.

great item that gives an amazing amount of intelligence that together with his passive to restart cooldowns after getting kills or assist will let you use multiple abilities in a short time during teamfights.

, core item for every mage build, his passive increases a lot your damage, it gives base mana aswell.

great item that will allow to be able to scape easily from difficult situations, making your gameplay much easier.

, core item for every mage build, this item gives us enough penetration to be able to kill tanks.

because as is constantly spamming abilities we manage to decrease enemy protections easily.

Introduction

Hi, my name is Ragna and I started playing Smite 1 on PC in 2021. I started playing in little community tournaments and after a lot of training and work I manage to play professional tournaments on Atlanta as the Smite Content Cup in 2024.

Now, in Smite 2 I have reached Deity every single split and I have competed in tournaments like Smite Vegas Qualifiers (ending in 5th position of EU) and right now Smite Prime, so Im always getting updated about the best metas on the game.

Apart from that I have a Twitch channel Ragna_smite where we play Smite 2 every single day and we do coaching for the subs to help them to improve on Smite 2, answering questions, talking about the game, etc.

Hope you find this guide as a good starting point for the midlane and helps you improve your Kukulkan skills and knowledge.

Here are my socials:

Abilities

Kukulkan' Abilities

Passive -

As you need to build items that give you base mana, as we talked before on the build section, converts mana from items into inteligence.

So before buying some item with think about his passive.

Ability 1 -

Use this ability as your poke ability, it has a very little cooldown that added to his area and slow makes it the best ability to damage your enemies.

Before using any of the other two damage abilities whirldwind or use it to slow your enemies so it easier for you to hit your skills.

Ability 2 -

This is your main and only scape ability.

If you use it away from Whirlwind it only gives you movement speed.
If you use it inside Whirlwind if gives you movement speed, a dash and slows the enemies you hit.

As I have said in all my previous guides, use it offensively only if you know you could survive, if not only use it inside your tornado to dash away.

Ability 3 -

You need this ability to convert into a dash so, as I said previously, use it safety to push or deal damage if you know that no one could engage you.

On a dangerous situation in which in any moment enemy jungler can gank you, just use to deal damage and wait for a countergank to use your third ability.

Ultimate -

Hard ability to hit without any hard CC ability.

Use it specially to secure fire giant or gold fury, as a predict with you see some teammate close enough to hit a good stun or even after you hit some slow as or on the dash form.

Example Combos

In case you're in a safe spot: ->

On a 1v1: -> -> ->

To engage: -> -> ->

How to play Kukulkan

Gameplay Start / Early Game

Push first wave.
Go to your solo camps with your jungler, kill it and after that do the same with red (jungler takes the first red).
Go back to lane push another wave after that group up with your jungler and fight for neutral buffs.
From here onwards, we get more into Kukulkan playstyle. At this point of the game, we don't have much damage, so we have to make sure to be efficient on our farm, looking always for backcamps to do, maybe invade some enemy camps and neutral camps(the most important ones).
Kukulkan has a very bad early game but a great poke with Zephyr. Moreover, as we are stacking Book of Thoth our early damage is going to be very low, wait for a teammate play to be proactive meanwhile focus on farming as much as you can to reach midgame earlier than the rest of the lobby.
Remember, use carefully Slipstream we don't wanna die on the early game and because of that not being able to use Kukulkan's midgame power.

Mid Game:

For a midlaner we get into midgame when we have 3 items from our build, at this point we have enough damage to kill a carry (jungler, mage, hunter), anyways you will have very high cooldowns, so think carefully where you using your abilities as you may end up withouth abilities and scaped in the middle of a teamfight.
We keep focusing on farm even though we have a good kill potential at this point (remember kills are important but dont waste too much time looking for kills, if not you will fall behind in farm).
Be talking/calling constantly to your jungle/support for plays on the midlane you have crazy poke that together with some of the picks we talked at the begining of this guide could end on very easy wins just because of a midlane stomp.
Try to be always thinking about rotating (obviously while you farm) so you make teamfights easier to win because of superiority situations

Late Game:

At late game, as Kukulkan you can zone easily on a teamfight with Whirlwind splitting teams on teamfights as if they go through the tornado they will receive a lot of damage giving your team a crazy positive teamfight.
Teamfights on narrow places are the Kukulkan speciality as on these kind of situations his ultimate Spirit Of The Nine Winds dominates that combined with the previous point creates crazy damage points.
Important things you should always be thinking about to be able to poke for free:
- Where is the enemy jungler and support, as these two roles are the main ones that could pick yourself alone ending on a bad situation or forcing you to go back to base.
- Gods with jumps will insta-jump after you use Whirlwind so unless you know they have their jump on cooldown, dont insta-use it because they will dodge the ability easily. Use Zephyr to force the jump and on the second one is when you use your tornado.
- On a defensive play, use your tornado to support your teammates if some enemy jungler, solo laner, etc its fighting melee to them, like that he will have time to scape or even kill that enemy with a good combo.
To sum up, always be behind walls to use Spirit Of The Nine Winds so enemy teams dont have time to react and juke the ability.
At fire giant moment, you have to zone as much as you can with your abilities so your teammates can get a free fire.
If the enemies are the ones pulling the fire gigant, look for potential damage or even to steal it with Spirit Of The Nine Winds, remember dont use Slipstream to hit fire giant, probably you wont steal it, but for sure you will die.
At phoenixes, you have to play it similar as fire gigant situations, if you are the one sieging look to zone the enemy carries so your carries are free to take the objective, and if the enemies are the ones sieging just wait for them to go into phoenix pit and there look for a good stun, so they have to back or even create a good teamfight for your team.
If aim is one of your best qualities make sure you will have a crazy gameplay with Kukulkan.

How to ward as a midlaner

Early/Mid Game

Here you can see the best spots to ward as a Midlaner.

These wards will help you to be safe during the first instances of the game, giving you the information about if your getting ganked from the solo or duo side.

Very Passive Situation

These wards will help you recover if you come from a bad spot i which maybe you are getting ganked a lot or invaded

Late Game

These wards are use to help your team on teamfight situations or fire gigant pulls, there are a lot of possibilities take those ones who you consider that suits the best to your game situation.

Siege / Defense Phoenix

For this situation there are only two main spots to have a ward, as you can see them rotating from one lane to the others, maybe you could even put one at lane to see if minions are approaching the phoenix but it isn't that important as knowing which lane they are going to siege.

As with that information you could be able to be on the right position before your enemies giving you a great advantage for the teamfight.

Regardless of the role, wards are the most important consumable you can buy, so don't forget to buy two wards after each back!
