Behold the Majesty
Hi guys! This is FerrumSlash, and this is my first guide ever on Xbalanque, the first-ever Mayan god on Smite!
Xbalanque (I'll refer to him as Xbal) is a really fun god to play. His skill-set is awesome and he really excels in hunting down kills.
Remember that guides are not the Holy Bible. You're always welcome to improvise and kick-*** with it. I'm actually just an average player trying to help out since i don't actualy see many people playing Xbal.
DISCLAIMER : I'm afraid i cannot input much about conquest, since i rarely play conquest. Will try to fix in the future.
Pros
Playing Xbalanque is really fun, but you should also be careful. He is not as punishing as Artemis but he should also be played with caution. One wrong move and placement and boom. Stunned. or silenced. or roflstomped.
To sum it up with a few words:
"Strike hard. Strike fast. Strike often".
Let me know how to improve this guide.I eagerly await feedback. If you decide to give the guide a downvote, do tell me the reason in the comment section. I will address the issue as soon as possible to make it better.
Thanks for reading my first guide on SmiteFire. FerrumSlash out.

Thanks for the feedback.
For the rising jaguar part, actually the timing is too difficult,because at the dash there is no cc immunity, just the leap which is also a pretty short window. The timing is not effective and i don't recommend newer players to try it out. I'd rather get pulled and scram using RJ than missing my RJ cc immunity timing then can't escape once i'm pulled. Still, it's worth mentioning. Thanks for pointing that out.
Thanks for replying!..Well, I find

Just two things to point out on contents:
- Use of

Bottom line: Build purely around your auto attacks. I don't like the choice of that many defensive items, aside from magi's blessing perhaps.
As for the skills, I'll have to disagree on this one.
If by saying "strong all-round" you meant strong throughout all the game phases, you are wrong my friend. True, Xbalanqe isn't as punishing and as risky as Artemis, but he still has a worse laning phase compared to her and the worst out of all the hunters. His clear is very, very rough and he is extremely mana hungry. His clear is too dangerous, as he has to position himself in the side of the wave to hit posion darts instead of being behind the wave. You could use
I suppose you've already understood, that there is a lack of laning explanation. There is also a lack in gameplay and team fights.
The guide itself looks nice - the BBCoding is good; not too obstructive but highlights what needs to be highlighted.
This guide isn't enough. The build isn't good, the skills are messed up, there is a severe lack of gameplay. A downvote by me.
I hope my review helped you and that you take my words into consideration. I suppose you know about TT's general guides to guidecrafting and BBCoding so I wont' link them. Farewell.
