Bacchus

Obviously, Much like Ymir, Hades, Etc. When you think about Bacchus, you generally think about Tanks.. Thats not the issue when it comes to me..
See, I am a legendary Bacchus, With him played more than any other God on the battlegrounds, When I join Ranked games and go for Magical Damage Bacchus, Which is most of the times, I mostly get yelled at.

Which is what I consider to be the best feeling ever because they yell early game, Late game is another story because in team fights, you can hear them VHH'ing you xD..
I mostly play magical damage on Bacchus but that does not mean I don't tank him out some, Sovereignty would never hurt.
When I support, I tend to enforce the following rule upon myself;
Always ALWAYS start the game by feeding your adc…
And what that means is basically when you and your adc take jungle buffs and are ready to go to lane, Always start out by body slamming if possible, Then chugging and burping:Stunning the enemy, and the best way to prepare for that is to always take it upon yourself never to have the drunk meter below 30%, Therefore stunning the enemy,all of that is just a little to drain them of their health as your adc (ex: Rama) starts shooting them off, Easily granting him the kill as you already are buying the soul reaver, after come sov, Its always good to have a tanky tank, yet a feisty and damaging tank, and when I play bacchus , I start killing mid game and onwards due to my tanginess and magical abilities, So I hurt and eventually wind up with a good 6 kills, maybe 8 and sometimes 12…. You never know, Always remember, Keep your ultimate up and ready each time you participate in a fight, either team fights or 1v1s, Because your ultimate can be the thin line between grabbing the kill or commencing a perfect escape.

Hope this helps, Its my first guide, I tried to put something up to break bachhus' usual Meta that I mostly encounter, And people undermine his strength as he is a big, essential factor to all fights. Any questions please feel free to post them, Ill reply as soon as I can, Also, Any down votes just let me know what you think is wrong so that this post can be updated every now and then..

Abilities

Always start with Chug, And ALWAYS chug… No one likes a dry mouthed Bacchus…
Then the 3rd ability for stunning
Then the body slam for knock ups that can be very useful for team fights…
Ultimate is what you need to concentrate on and never enter a battle with it on cool down.. if you enter a lot of fights you can always get cool down reduction for late game..

I think you are on a good track but this guide seems kinda incomplete. For example what would you spend your skills on after LVL 5? Please respond, I'm new to Bacchus and can't find a complete and reliable guide.

May I ask as to Why ?


It seemed to be the best build working for me concerning bacchus damage, And I am certain I am Very good at playing Bacchus damage and my Masteries with him are high enough for me to say he is wonderful with this build, Did you try it and fail ? > If you do, then you are very bad at damage tanks, So, Don't damage tanks just play tanky tanks.

Also, Always start Leveling Chug (1) because no one likes cotton mouth bacchus, Chug gives you more damage and if you are tipsy on the drunk-o-meter and use your (3) you can stun enemies for I believe a second, Which is more than enough for your arc (For Example : Neith) gets her stun on them and does amazing damage with the help of your ult,
For skill order I go
13214331422341234114 (If I can remember correctly..)
Basically, best advice would be: Focus on chugging a lot and burping (Stunning the enemies) your adc will love you, Specially when they run you can body slam them and knock them up which gives most adcs the ability to successfully ult them.

I agree, If you are a new bacchus player you should stick to tanking at first, get to know his triggers, his buttons, his abilities, Then fully excavating him in every possible way, This guide was meant to show some Players who main Bacchus that they can play him and cause damage getting a lot of kills, but Bacchus was meant to be a tank, I just broke the Meta and I gotta say, Its beautiful to have a tank who also wrecks..

If you're a new Bacchus player, this really isn't the guide for you. This build is based on damage, which is not necessarily Bacchus's strong suit, so I would find a tank build and look at that. As for skill order, I personally level it like this:
