Smite 2: Ares Build Guides - Closed Alpha 6

Ares, the Greek God of War, stands as one of the mightiest and most feared gods in Smite 2. As a guardian, Ares excels at locking down enemies, supporting his team with powerful crowd control, and turning the tide of battle with his high-impact abilities. Known for his aggressive playstyle and tanky resilience, Ares can dominate team fights and secure key objectives with his oppressive presence.

Lore Ares, driven by his insatiable lust for bloodshed and chaos, thrives in the heart of the battlefield. He is not a god who fights for justice or honor, but rather for the thrill of battle itself. As the embodiment of warfare, he relentlessly charges forward, mercilessly crushing any opposition. In Smite 2, his rage knows no bounds, making him a destructive force on the battleground.

Key Abilities

Shackles (1st Ability): Ares throws chains to bind his enemies, dealing damage over time and slowing them down. If a target is hit, Ares can chain them again, further hindering their movement and increasing his potential for disruption.

Call To Arms (2nd Ability): You and nearby allied gods gain Magical and Physical Protections and Basic Attack Damage. • Damaging enemy gods increases the duration and the effects of this buff.

Searing Flesh (3rd Ability): Ares releases a devastating cone of fire, dealing damage to all enemies in front of him. This ability is essential for applying pressure and pushing back foes during engagements.

No Escape (Ultimate): Ares’ iconic ultimate pulls all enemies caught in its radius toward him after a brief delay. This crowd-control ability can secure multiple kills in coordinated team fights, forcing enemies to use their escapes or suffer a devastating pull into his team.

With his combination of chain attacks, protection buffs, and unmatched crowd control, Ares is a formidable guardian who thrives on creating chaos and fear on the battlefield. His abilities reward a bold, fearless playstyle, making him an ideal pick for players who want to dominate through sheer power and aggression.
