Situational Item

Notes Obsidian Shard - If you're facing a protection heavy composition swap out Soul Reaver and purchase Obsidian Shard. This item ignores a % of the target's protections.

Rod of Tahuti - can be used instead of Shaman's Ring. It's passive works well with Zeus Detonate Charge if the enemy is below 50% health.

Divine Ruin - Replace Gem of Isolation with this to counter enemy gods that have healing in their kit or lifesteal builds.

Winged Blade - can help with some more survivability. Giving you more health, movement speed & CCR.

Introduction

Hi everyone,
I'm new to the game and only really play joust. I love playing Zeus and play really well with him (most of the time lol).
So here is the build i use for Zeus in joust and i have had a lot of success with it.


CONCLUSION

This is by no means the best build but it works for me.
any feedback or criticism is welcome to improve the build or the guide it self. sorry i don't know how to code the item for easier reading.

Pros / Cons

PROS:
High damage

CONS:
Very slow

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.
