How to use

This build is made for dealing high damage to enemies, the whirlpool will tend to do around 110 damage a tick to non tanks and around 60 to tanks so using it against tanks isn’t effective unless ur goal is to slow them. This comes in handy during team fights if u can whirlpool the enemies and summon the kraken then hit them with the tidal wave it is typically an overkill for the average god and for those tankier gods if u need to finish them off then using your second ability is the best way to do so. Another use of the whirlpool if u need to kill a tanks is to slow the then tidal wave and get close enough to hit them with the triple trident, the trident is they way to take down tanks in this build dealing 300+ damage if u land all three tridants if u go for the spear instead of lifesteal then make sure to hit the tanks with the whirlpool this will lower their defense toward u allowing for increases damage.

"the whirlpool will tend to do around 110 damage a tick to non tanks and around 60 to tanks so using it against tanks isn’t effective unless ur goal is to slow them." - That's because you build Gem of Iso and Soul Gem right in the middle of the build, and you also get obsidian last. Your build also has no pen unti last item which is very bad. Not to mention you get your last mana item as a boots replacement in a book of thoth build.

Here's better suggestions:

Build 1: Book of Thoth, Shoes of Focus, Spear of the Magus, Soul Reaver, Gem of Isolation, Obsidian Shard.

Build 2: Shoes of the Magi, Chronos' Pendant, Spear of the Magus, Soul Reaver, Soul Gem, Rod of Tahuti.

Alternative items: Shaman's Ring, the magical attack speed rings (can't just slap them into the build, need to build around them), Spear of Desolation, Book of the Dead, Winged Blade, Magi's Cloak, Mantle of Discord, Dynasty Plate Helm/ Celestial Legion Helm, Void Stone.
