Beginning

Stay ranged and if there isn't an Ao Kuang[/color] (or whomever) who isn't willingly blowing his Ability on creeps or just derping use your Solar Beam (if There is a Loki use your Solar Blessing after he Bombs) on the creeps and keep your Divine Light ready for any transgression, generally you want to aim for casters face at any time if it isn't hard to or it'll interrupt your better path don't do it. Seriously, don't! But, always look for it.

Head back to base and get level 3 boots before Level 5, if you feel a kill. As, always don't.
After the level 5 engagement you should have level 1 of your Rod of Tahuti adding a tiny bit of MP5. If you're not getting fed or there isn't any action happening and you're not getting assists I sometimes get Sprint after level 2 Rod, upto you.

Middle

Harassment time

At this stage of the game though, try not to miss many Solar Beam's[/color]. It's the only real damage and if it blazes on two or more foes it is likely team fights will be in your favor. It is also up to the player to use your Solar Blessing offensively for slow after you get Gem or for the healing.

Ra checklist:
(1.Melee damage.
(2.Blinding right after certain God's ultimate attacks or Melee can cripple damage.
(3.Try to keep movement stacks without to many abilities being wasted.
(4.Try to position yourself (when you have a massive advantage)so enemies can't retreat.
(5.Try not to body block your allies.





Keep in your head your cooldown cycles, this is easy with the number of the corresponding key. Remember them as (1,2,3) in your head, we'll move into mid late quickly with even more tricks for your opponents to deal with :)

My item choice

Why?I usually rush Rod because this way his Ult really does the dmg it needs to. THe heals actually help and his Beam when it hits twice can effectively almost eliminate someone and make them go heal.

Gem of Isolation: It simply changes everything, having an AOE mass slow ability that heals your team and damaging your foes is an Ult almost in itself the way his Solar Blessing works. This catches aggressors and makes them poles less annoying. I get kills from just popping a slow on a Melee or a damaged Mage nonstop.

Obsidian Shard: You can get this before gem if you feel like you just want to shred some people early. But, I get kills from Gem and quickly pick this up after I get Gem making my build better.

Chronos' Pendant: Ra spamming abilities and having the MP5 to stay in combat nonstop is OP as hell,


More coming soon including pics and updates. I plan on adding small chapters on tips on how to play when you get caught in the weeds
