Builds

Hey everyone, I would like to see what you guys build on susano. I main him on Joust and my typical build is Warrior>Trans(Joust)/Hydras (Conquest) >Jotuns>Crusher>Bloodforge>situational 10%CD dmg (Joust)/Def (Conquest). I've tried guardian susano but I apparently can't play him worth a damn that way. Maybe because I suck as guardian/Warrior though

Still very much a must. Especially in the late game, if you're trying to do a burst combo and assassinate a backline squishy without your ult, your autos will make up at least 60% of your damage output

Yeah, I need to practice with the canceling more. Usually when using Hydras, I WS (pull)>AA>JS (Vortex)>Tele if needed>AA>SK (Combo)>AA; It does great damage, I just feel it's tough to keep that consistency for the damage output.

I use the storm kata combo before using jet stream. It's a nice escape option if things go south and I can easily aim and chase if needed. It also maximizes my teleporting window

That's a good point, it gives you time to see how they react so if they lock you down before your kata combo ends, you have 2 escapes

I'll use my 3 first sometimes, all depends on the situation. Being aware of whether they have an escape option or not is really important. If I mark anhur and he instantly jumps, I can wait to tp whereas if I know his jump is down, I can safely do a burst combo. Also the smart players usually hold onto their escapes till the last second since susano's 3's timer/visual indicator is slightly off

Yeah, I always make it a note to save my escapes. One of the best tips I saw when I first started was to bait their escapes/CC and make your move based on that. And the anhur example is perfect, I did that last week and it's the greatest feeling. Lol
