All of it helps and let me improve future builds and guides.
I'm only going to comment on the support ideas, and not the "memein" one.
As support, I'm thinking you're going back to the days when Hades was a Guardian and trying to recreate that function to a degree. So with this build, you're getting your lifesteal up really high with some key items to provide utility...increased lifesteal from
When being the main tank, while people DO sometimes go with both Thebes and Prophetic, I don't know that it's optimal for Hades and I think they're built too late...I would want them earlier. But I guess if you're healing a bunch you might be able to kill before they kill you. That definitely requires good teamwork with whoever you're supporting (ADC early in Conq, whichever teammates in any other mode).
Now, besides that concern of build order, I also have major concerns about the lifesteal. Not only does Hades usually mean enemies will build anti-heal to counter his standard build and his healing from the 3, but now you're building a bunch of extra items that provide healing effect...4 in total. Anti-heal is going to drop the effectiveness of all of them, making you pretty easy to counter. You and/or teammates get hit with enemies that have Divine and BBS, and you're healing almost nothing...not to mention Ankhs, other god abilities, etc. On top of that, as Supp, you're probably going to need to play in the midst of a teamfight, and that also means there's more likelihood you'll encounter tanks w/
As such, I honestly would not want to go with this build. It invests too heavily into the healing/lifesteal aspect which can be countered pretty strongly with 1 or 2 enemy items, and I'd want some prots earlier. At this point though, I don't know that I'd want to use him as support. I personally have fun w/ Baron and Nox supps, and Hel, Eset and Ix Chel can be fun too, and I'd choose them before I'd go for Hades.
do keep in mind this is just a theory so its not meant for real play at all but I will keep looking into ways to make it work. thank you for letting me know.
