This build will seem to be the worst pile you will ever see. But i was screwing around and i found this build to be extremely fun and actually quite good. I start out with maxing out my 2 so that it can be used with the attack speed items and polynomicon or telkines ring. Poseidon's 2 is the bulk of this build. I will say this now, his 1 isn't used much except for when you want to get a little more poke or clear, so i level it up once early on then i don't touch it until the end.
Poseidon's whirlpool and Craken are amazing to gank with. the Craken is a surprise that wont be expected, so initiate with that if you can. Usually it will be such a surprise that things like aegis and escapes wont go off in time. After that you can rush in with your 2 and also use your whirlpool to deal the damage, slow and cripple.
Now the whirlpool is one of the best things. If your ultimate is down you can just initiate with that and then go in with your 2 active and they wont be able to get away as easily with the slow and cripple.
Poseidon's jungle camp clear are also very good with the whirlpool and the 2. Once you begin to get things like polynomicon, demonic grip and gem of binding you will witness the easy melting. Rod of tahuti is a great late game ramp to his overall damage. Fatalis is great for the movement speed to chase (adds on to his passive). Of course there is gem of binding so that the enemy has a much harder time to get away and it gives a nice amount of damage as well. Obsidian shard is mainly for when you need to deal extra damage to those more tanky characters. The breastplate of valor is great when there is a lo of counter jungling and other jungle affairs. And of course, mana and cool down reduction are a wonderful thing too.

I hope that all who try this build will have as much fun as possible, and also have some good games with it. Post some replies below about whether or not you like this build or it is fun!
