Introduction

Personally, I think that Guan can be one of the most damaging characters in the game, and I usually play him as a high damage dealer. So after a while of playing Guan with this amazing build, I decided to post it on here. I think that everyone should love this build. Just to point this out, I usually get around 15 kills a game with this build. I guarantee that if you love damaging Guan, you will love this build.

Item choice

I went with the items that I did because they all contribute something to the build. First off I went with the spear of the Magus, this is a great item because it is cheap and provides awesome power and penetration. Next, of course, are the boots of the magi, giving mana, power, and speed. After that i went with the obsidian shard, because by now, people are starting to get afraid of you and getting tanky items. So to counter that not only does it provide great penetration, it gives you lots of magic power. Next up I have Chronos Pendant, which gives nice CDR, and a little bit of power. Then, comes the Gem of Isolation, this gives awesome magic power and, the big thing, a slow on all of you attacks and abilities. The final item is the Rod of Tahuti, which gives just massive amounts of magic power.

Pros/Cons

Pros:
High damage
Slow
Penetrates
CDR
etc.

Cons:
The only real con I can think of is that you will not be very tanky.

Pros/Cons

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
