Build Strategy: Early Game: With an average of 4.5 minion kills per wave in the first 10 minutes, you should aim for about 80-100 last hits to secure your items. Mid Game: By the 15-minute mark, you should have around 3-4 core items, allowing for a 30% increase in your kill participation rate. Late Game: Poseidon can reach up to 1,500 magical damage per cast of a fully empowered ability, given optimal conditions and enemy magical protections.
Tips: Mana Management: Even without mana potions, your MP5 from items ensures you can sustain for roughly 2-3 ability rotations without needing to back. Positioning: Maintain a safe distance of 1,000 units from primary threats while still contributing, leveraging Poseidon's range. Tide Mechanic: Aim to stack Tide for a 10% movement speed increase and 5% ability damage boost per stack.
