Is this a troll build or something? No boots and silverbranch? Ichaival isn't a very good item atm either

Either a troll build or a noob build

Either way it's a bad build and not recommended.

Troll build = intentional. I don't know that this is intentionally bad, but it's not a build I would ever consider. Boots = essential. Silverbranch is awful.

Ichaival on the other hand is plenty strong. It's just about where you fit it in, and in what kind of build. The stats on it are very strong, but it's just more niche due to the passive. I think it's a good item when facing multiple basic attackers.

Also I don't know if the skill leveling is intentional, but it's incorrect. If this person intends to point-skip, there's just no reason to do so. So level 8 should be his 2, and level 9 his 1 if that's their preference in leveling.

If you have beads, maybe anubis can be less of a threat, you can avoid the damage and kill it fast enough so he doesn't get the ability back up.

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.
