Smite God: Geb

Tap Mouse over an item or ability icon for detailed info

Geb Build

Notes This build will dominate every God in the game. You may struggle a bit against auto attackers because it's ability based but you'll be able to spam abilities nonstop and do tons of damage on top of almost maxed defense an a ton of hp. Easily distract the enemy team while your teammates take the fg or 1v5 with no issue and escape while dealing tons of damage and letting your team clean up. I usually average about 5 0 15 with this build

Bumba's Hammer

Contagion

Shogun's Kusari

Gauntlet of Thebes

Hide of the Urchin

Pridwen

Chalice of Healing

Chalice of the Oracle

Cloak of Ascetic

Fortifying Shell

Op Geb

This biild is basically unstoppable (except against auto attack gods you can struggle Abita but what God doesnt)

A few things don't make sense.
1) Why the starter? seems like a better choice for a tank/support.
2) Why ? It's supposed to be a situational item.
3) Why would you struggle against all auto attack gods? Isn't crit mostly meta on hunters? Your passive gives you lots of protection against crits.
4) No mention of as a possible relic choice for initiation?

I'm sure there are many many more things to point out, but I'll let Bran or Kriega handle that.

Because this is a very specific build. I said op. It's op. You need antihero regardless it's not situational. Bumbas goes specifically with this build. You heal constantly and can spam abilities. An I don't personally struggle against any God really just whe I first started auto attack gods like kali sucked to fight. Now they're no issue. Just takes a few matches to get used to the build. Also blink doesn't allow sustain. You're there to support your team not invade. You have your roll every 3 seconds anyways so no need for blink

I have to disagree with your points.

1) Antiheal from defensive items is situational. Tell me why you would need it if an enemy composition doesn't have any major healing?
For example, the enemy hunter and mage only have lifesteal items as their source of healing, and both of them are being dominated by your hunter and mage.
Also, enemy healing from lifesteal items becomes more relevant in the later stages of the game, when they have some damage online. Yet you're building anti heal as your second item.

2) You healing 120 health from isn't going to be anything significant to any late game enemy mages/hunters. Even if you're in the middle of a fight and getting the passive off, you're only healing 480 at most (before any enemy anti heal kicks in)

3) Blink may not allow sustain, but the amount of initiation potential it gives you, as the Geb support, makes it worthy of consideration. If the enemy team is grouped up, and you blink into the middle of their formation, they won't have time to react to your initiation. But if they see you rolling towards them, they're going to spread out or crowd control you.

"You're there to support your team not invade" Yet you're focusing on a build that brawls with an enemy (and not very well) instead of helping setting up initiation/peel.
If you're there to support your team, get .

Also I don't use any other starter on get. They're pointless when you're already almost maxed defense and have 2 support auras and one antiheal aura

This build isn't suggested, with some questionable item choices and build order. I'm not saying it can't work on a game-to-game basis situationally, and I'm guessing you have some good success with this, but I don't think it's optimal and you could be doing even better with a more optimized build.

If you just listed items, and didn't specifically put them in the order they are meant to be purchased, then some of my comments may not apply, though you should always present a build in correct purchase order for clarity.

The entire list of items are all support/tank items, so Bumba's is very confusing to choose. It should just be one of the standard passive supp starter/upgrades. I disagree they'd be pointless...it's not even about the base stats on the Embrace or Compassion upgrades, as the passive effects are also very helpful for teammates.

Sure, I can absolutely see how having the Hammer CDR effect would be really fun, but if we're talking Conquest (which I assume we are), you're hurting your early farm and sustain while in lane, AND requiring yourself to get a basic attack in after ability use just to get that added CDR effect.
Anti-heal is fine, but in most cases it's not doing all that much for you early-game, unless you're in lower ranks and maybe facing someone doing an Aphro support. I would not suggest Contagion early, though the counter-argument would be that it's cheap and provides physical prots. But as you have Thebes in your build, it really should be built first to help with early stacking while you're still mostly in lanes, and prepare you for both types of damage as you start rotating more to mid.

Typically, Pestilence is the preferred anti-heal tank item, and it would be that that I would recommend, but later in the build.
I have no problem with Shogun's or Prid, just to be clear. In almost every game those are solid choices.
Hide of the Urchin is taking the slot of another item you could use for countering or utility. Sure, it's got good protections and health, but you could get situationally better utility out of an item like Spirit Robe as you don't have any other items that provide anti-CC, and the other stats are good. Remember, being tanky and able to take more damage is only one of the features you should have when playing a traditional support. You also want to provide other utility for your teammates, and Urchin doesn't do that. You already have Thebes, I don't think you need Urchin.
Besides Pestilence, there are other items you might consider situationally. The other aura items Sovereignty / Heartward Amulet (and its glyphs) can be somewhat helpful for teammates, and Sov would solve your health sustain if you pick it up fairly early. In place of Urchin, you might consider Manticore's Spikes which provides some similar stats and situational offense for your team...and you can easily trigger the passive.
I don't suggest a Chalice of Healing. You're probably feeling like you have to get that, because you're lacking lane sustain due to your choice of starter. So you're choosing a starter (ARE you choosing a starter???) that doesn't really help early game, and then having to get another item to make up for part of what it lacks, which is not a great strat. Just get the traditional starter, grab some early potions, and you're mostly good. Probably don't recommend Med Cloak either. Shell is a solid relic.
In your notes, you talk about dominating every god in the game, but maybe struggle a bit against auto attackers. That tells me you might not understand your purpose. Dominate is confusing because you're a Supp, and while Geb's passive helps against crits, late-game basics are always going to hurt (as long as the ADC knows how to build decently). Your purpose as Geb is to watch for and protect teammates, negate CC on them, and disrupt the field w/ your abilities.
I checked your history due to your claim of averaging 5-0-15. Your last 5 games have gone 1-2-6, 2-3-8, 2-1-6, 7-2-13, and 2-4-1. Going further back, not counting the early game surrender, there's 2-7-4, 1-2-18, 3-4-15, 0-0-4, and 3-2-2. Now don't get me wrong...those are not bad scores for a support. But it's also a far cry from your claim. If anything, you're hopefully not stealing early game kills from your ADC, and trying to sacrifice yourself in situations where doing so would save teammates. Dying as a Supp isn't necessarily a bad thing. The other thing I notice here is that you honestly seem to shy away from starters. Why?? They are there for a specific purpose and there's a reason most people (including pros) build them. I really suggest using them.
