standard

Notes This is the standard Guan Yu build, I would mostly buy Transcendence instead of Gladiator's Shield because I like having that extra mana sustain and damage, also, you will cap defenses with this build, and with Taolu Assault passive you will be over capped, so mix it up with offensive items if possible

Caduceus

Notes Last item could be Oni Hunter's Garb insted of Spirit Robe but usually spirit robe it's gonna do better with it's passive
This build mostly works if they have low antiheal and low physical damage
Transcendece can be mixed up on this build too, but you will need to replace Genji's Guard and buy Amulet of the Stronghold or Oni Hunter's Garb instead of Spirit Robe

alternatives

Notes Tainted Breastplate replacing sundering axe, mostly when you need that extra antiheal in lane phase and lategame teamfights, remember that you need to hit the god to apply the effect it's not like Pestilence or Contagion more of a Brawler's Beat Stick

Sigil Of The Old Guard Can be stacked pretty fast with Guan Yu, combine it with Spirit Robe and you will be a lot tankier with it's passive

Midgardian Maik Really useful against basic attack gods like Bakasura/ Vamana and adc's, it's being used a lot on this meta in order to counter full attack speed builds

Spectral Armor Perfect item against junglers with crits, like Mercury/ Serqet and adc's

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.
