Hieroglyphic Assault

1 X
Thoth conjures three Hieroglyphs around him, ignoring the Basic Attack Movement penalty. His next 3 Basic Attacks pass through Enemies and apply Ability Damage instead. Additionally, these Basic Attacks deal an additional 25% damage to jungle minions. If these attacks pass through the Glyph of Pain, their range is increased by 30. Hitting an enemy with this ability increases the damage they take from each subsequent shot by 10% and reduces the cooldown by 0.5s (this can only occur once per shot).

Ability Type: Line, Damage
Damage Per Shot: 45 / 65 / 85 / 105 / 125 (+25% of your Magical Power)
Glyphs Spawned: 3
Range: 55/85
Cost: 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70

Thoth dashes in the direction he is currently traveling. After dashing, for 5s Thoth's next basic attack is enhanced.

This projectile roots the first Enemy god hit while slowing all other enemies, and also deals Ability Damage.

If either the Dash or Attack passes through the Glyph of Pain, their respective range is increased by 30.

Ability Type: Dash, Root, Damage
Damage: 70 / 110 / 150 / 190 / 230 (+60% of your Magical Power)
Root and Slow Duration: 1.5s
Slow: 30%

Glyph of Pain

3 B
From his book, Thoth conjures forth a Hieroglyph in front of him. Thoth's ability projectile passing through the glyph receive increased damage, and a range increase of 30. This damage does not trigger item effects.

Thoth and allies' Basic Attack projectiles also receive a lesser damage bonus, but no range increase.

Ability Type: Area, Buff, Damage
Ability Bonus Damage: 10 / 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 (+5% of your Magical Power)
Basic Attack Damage: 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50 (+5% of your Magical Power)

Final Judgement

4 Y
Thoth begins summoning pages from his book, up to a maximum of four. When all four have been summoned, he sends them forward damaging all Enemies in their path.

Thoth may activate this ability again to fire the ability early, doing a reduced amount of damage based on the number of glyphs currently summoned. Alternately he may cancel this ability at a cost of 30 Mana.

Ability Type: Line, Damage
Damage: 420 / 480 / 540 / 600 / 660 (+120% of your Magical Power)
Range: 100/130
Cost: 100
Cooldown: 90s

Chapter Title

Due to Thoth's level 1 being awful, you will have to rely on your jungler somewhat for waveclear, and take care not to attract damage from minions to avoid yourself getting first blooded. Play Thoth safely from a distance using his glyph wall and abilities for long ranged safe poke damage, during teamfights evaluate whether its safe to use your escape stun to set up kills for teammates or to save them.

I also believe Soul Stone applies to Thoth's Glyph wall, making it a decent starter on him, though Sands of Time (Maybe even Bumbas too) can massively help with early sustain.

On a final note, due to Thoth's passive giving him Flat penetration, which at max stacks reaches a total amount of 20, make sure any Magical Penetration you have from items does not go over 30, as you will overcap your Magical Penetration (Cap is 50), his passive also means Thoth is not as reliant on flat pen items as much as other Mages, and you can use his passive along with penetration items to cap the penetration limit, this means in some cases you can get Spear of The Magus instead of Obsidian Shard (though I would only recommend this with very high cooldown reduction to apply the passive from Magus often).

I hope you find one of these builds useful.
