Horus Build

General

Notes For this build, I am mainly focusing on the main 3 items of the build.
Gauntlet of thebes, almost always good for any support.
Gladiator Shield, allows Horus to build full defense, and still have an offensive threat.
Caduceus shield, even split defense and slight power bonus. Defense adds to the glad shield. And a bonus to his healing. Just a really good item for Horus

Recap and Explanation

This is a very rough guide. Mainly just because I wanted to update the previous Horus Guide that I made. Most of the gameplay and basic ideas are the same. But, the boots being removed and glad shield rework changed how some things work.

This is basically an introductive framework on how to build Horus. Nobody should claim that there is only one way to build any god in this game. If you aren't paying attention to what the opponent is playing, or what they are building, its a good chance that you will lose majority of the higher level games.

Hope this small guide helps anyone decide to play one of my favorite gods.

Thanks for reading.

Hello.

What this build for? Is that conquest support or for other modes? Because i see no any starting item. If you wanna build something instead of default start item you probably do not wanna die in any chance to not lose farming and play very safe. But then why you build Mystical Mail? Horus gona risk with that item, while he would preffer to stat backline, especially with Gauntlet of Thebes, that needs time to get defence. With that start pick i see very big defence falling at begining and safety requirements, so instead of leveling 1-2 for locking down they will max 3, where caduceus shield would very strong with prioritized Protector's Surge.

At the other hand, if you build Mystical Mail for aggression that Horus can provide as solo-like support, then you def do not needs Gauntlet of Thebes overall because it needs time to get online and all this time Horus will needs CDR, which Breastplate of Valor good in.

Currently this build looks very late game, and Horus will not be able to do something until he gets Gladiator's Shield

I do not want to say this build is wrong. Items are very good with Horus: caduceus shield is Horus core item, Mystical Mail fits very good with Genji's Guard in team fights, where Horus will get bunch magical damage, that will reduce his Long cooldowns. Gauntlet of Thebes gives him a chunk of defence later, Gladiator's Shield is increasing his ability damage based at this massive defence pool. Only Mantle of Discord are the only strange here, since it is supposed to be item for squishy.

I have a questions only to order of items and which situation this build will work for and at what stages of match.
