Items

To start you can get two mana pots instead of two health pots, two health is just my personal preference. Always get Shoes of the Magi first you need the mobility and damage to start. After you've got Shoes go straight into Bancrofts Talon for a huge power spike in early game, as well as some life steal. From here on out the build is kinda up to you, i always get Book of Thoth for mana and more power but you can also go tanky and get some defensive items. In my opinion zeus excels best built with full damage, if you follow my build to the end you'll end up with around 900 MP when it's finished.

Skills

To start the game most people pick zeus' 2 first for clear. I hate his 2 ability early it takes away all of your kill potential and honestly isn't very good at clearing until mid game. You can pick what ever you want but i would recommend going for his 1 or 3 first depending on if you can get an early kill or not. Definitely get his 3 first for an early kill and his 1 for lane clear.
