Main Build

Notes So, you started off with bancroft's talon but you should saved up enough to buy shoes of focus on your first return to the fountain because you'll need mana and cooldown. Then after the boots finish your bancrofts talon. Depending if you're still running out of mana get dooms orb first but I like to go hastened ring then doom orb. Soul reaver and rod of tahuiti for power. You'll be super powerful and really fast! Really good for assisting lanes mid game and if you need to help in team fights late game you'll be zooming all over the map! The chronos pendant is if you sell your boots after then get the speed potion!

Abilities

Start off with your first ability! Try to get minions and the enemy God in this whirlpool if you can! If you hit the enemy God and the minions come after you that's perfect because then the minions line up to you and you use your first ability to clear them! Use your second ability to escape since it increases speed or use it to chasing. Poseidon is fast so use this ability when assisting other lanes as well to get to there lane and back to yours as quick as possible.
---PERFECT COMBO(make sure all abilities are all cooldown): Use second ability when ready to attack -> Get enemy God in middle whirlpool-> Use ultimate when enemy God is in whirlpool and make sure you put them in your center of your ult too(maximum damage), and finally as they're in the air use your first ability to finish them off!

Passive

Make sure to continuously keep using basic attacks so your tide is built up because it give you so much extra power! This is what the ring was for so you have a little bit more attack speed so your tide increases faster and you can constantly use it. Don't be wasting abilities if your tide isn't up unless you have to!
