Popping Off! Ares Jungle Gameplay (SMITE Conquest)

[@MastYT]

A lot of you guys probably won't even notice but there was a minor issue with my mic, I have absolutely no clue why and it should be fixed in the next vid

Mast: Aura items are bad Also Mast: So were going to build Mystical Mail and Void Stone next

[@nothanks6784]

He's just saying the passive doesn't make it worth it to build abnormal aura items like pythagorean just for 30 power

[@RenReclaimed]

Pythag is a GREAT item for Ares. It gives him more lifesteal than Bancrofts and almost equal power for several hundred gold less. If you get it first item, you get an ungodly power spike right at around level 5-6 where Ares is strongest.

[@h7oda793]

@@nothanks6784 Oh it makes it worth

[@nothanks6784]

@@RenReclaimed it's still only 70 power as an early item. The lifesteal is only more in high health scenarios and the cdr is nice, but bancrofts is a better power spike especially given the passive.

[@RenReclaimed]

@@nothanks6784 Yes, it is only seventy power as an early item but Ares abilities do not scale well, as Mast mentions in his video, what you benefit from is helping your own sustain as well as your teammates while you are passing through and splitting a wave.

[@luckxxterra2132]

Ares passive is bad when you look at him as a jungler but as a support 30 free power for building like your supposed to as a support = busted when he can chain and flame any squishy for 100% their hp because he has 120 or so power purely from aura items

[@jesse1273]

Yep. As an Ares main Void stone is the only aura item i ever build for Damage Ares, but when I'm support I have at least 4 aura items normally.

[@jakeg4858]

in SPL they're building auras on him in jungle too. Screamm would go jade emperors then contagion

[@hashiramasenju3246]

I mean in a good comp for it pythags is nuts on jungle ares

[@kaijyuu_ka-ju48]

Yes but now think about a jungler that can build 2 full protection items and still get 30 power out of them... Doesnt sound so bad to me. I just tried it and out played a thanatos that builded full damage...

I love love how I can go looking for a specific video and can tell your videos by the 3 items you state on the thumbnail. Makes it so easy to find a video I want at a glance not having to read who it is below each thumbnail.

[@Iplaybro1]

8:04 That sounded so genuine. Like you were so happy!

[@TuffLP]

God damn 25:29 was beautiful. Zhong probably did most of the dmg, but that sword sliced through Ne Zha like butter.

The more i watch your videos the more i love you. Especially in a community as toxic as smite. You are super chill and i love your positive vibes :) Keep up your amazing work, love you ❤

Lmao 8:00 that “I’m nutty” made me laugh so hard

[@jloreti9]

Mast, as ares jungle it’s really hard to gank early game solo lane. Warriors blessing is insanely resilient to tick damage. It’s not from the tier 1 blackthorn. Also, I believe pythags is 120 power on ares for like 2300 gold. Very strong early game maybe 3rd item if you rush spear

[@ramonju-dixo3658]

Joey Loreti ye warrior blessing it s the perfect counter to ares

[@MastYT]

yeah warriors is definitely nuts vs ares

[@UltimateTf2Fan]

Ares support is amazing just because of his passive. A lot of my friends get confused at me buying pythags but forget that supports job is also to buff his teammates and debuff their enemies. My build has 6 passive stacks and is extremely tanky at 4k hp and a ton of protections. Being able to stay alive for a long period of time, be just as tanky as any other support, and STILL be able to be a threat to squishies and anyone at low hp is extremely valuable. Went 15k, 1 death, and 18 assists as support ares and won even with both my solo and mid feeding.

[@jack-o-lantern3382]

What’s your build brother?

[@Theebottomdogg]

Probably the thing I love about your videos the most is that your Gamertag is “call me mast” The first character I ever created on world of Warcraft was a dwarf hunter named call me master lol (no spaces obviously) but that’s where I started spending more time on video games then I did outside lol even though I gamed before wow that’s where I started.

[@Songbirdofourgeneration]

I miss the ares chain a lot. Maybe it’s the delay, but it never seems to go where I aim it

[@randomgeneratedname6035]

"I'm nutty" loved that part

[@freeelement612]

You took the role of the god of war quite good. you went to battles time and time again and you came victorious. Ares would be proud of ya xD

[@h7oda793]

"Ares passive is bad" it is 30 power free on items that people buy anyway

[@nawk278]

It's a fine passive, but Ares' scaling isn't too great, so he doesn't get much use out of the magical power.

[@starvalkyrie]

@@nawk278 the scaling on his abilities is a red herring. Look to the autos and and the poly proc

[@mrterrbl8184]

I'm addicted to your videos. If you posted 5 a day, I'd watch them all.

[@aristidesseijo523]

How do you guys know about these buffs and nerfs? Where is all this information at? I’ve always wonder.

[@vulgarkiwi4223]

In the patch notes like every other game?

[@matiastello8714]

pytagorem piece 100 power for a really cheap item

[@grambottle033]

Hey Mast, at 26:12, why go for Obsidian over Spear of Deso? Obsidian's % pen coupled with Magus is a bit nerfed, is it not? (or has the internal math on that changed?) I figure Deso's flat pen works better both with your Magus and the fact that Ares doesn't scale super well, plus the CDR and passive is always welcome. Was it an econ decision? Or am I missing something else?

[@xCheeseHead95x]

Congratulations on the KFC sponsorship Mast! So proud of you lil buddy!

[@Ambroisegerber]

You should’ve gone Pythagorem’s Piece instead of Poly, works way better with ares :) Nice vid tho

[@lordsathen]

No xd

[@pyranna2003]

No way, that poly proc on Ne Zha near the end alone made poly worth it.

[@GeminiOrion9]

Or a Shaman's Ring bc DoTs and movement speed

[@LG67-z4s]

Good work, Mast. It isn’t easy giving quality commentary while playing the game. I’m way too ADHD to have that talent lol

[@Ro-fw3lc]

The chain is like hit scan imo,the moment the targeter lights red,shoot and watch them accordingly

[@TheStanDudley]

An item I’ve been loving on ares is pridwin, so nice to get cool down and I think should be last item mandatory

[@JackRipperiscoming]

BTW the reason why people say go aura items you get basically +50 power each item along with being tanky

[@tb7306]

4:48 100% absolutly relatable 😂 same with me, i suck at ares chains, they have a weird delay and i dont get familiar with it 😅

[@zachdavis7592]

I aspire to be that Nike at 26 minutes. When I pull off great tank plays like that as a tank I feel like such a badass!! I'm in awe!!

[@TheYodason]

Can confirm, am Ares main, was angry... great video as always Mast 😂

[@wellsdavidj]

Mystical mail messes up my blinks too often so I skip out on it.

[@Azecap]

The reason Serqet was so tanky early is that Warrior's Blessing is such a potent counter to Ares in the earlygame! everything being ticks means that warrior's negates soooo much dmg :o

[@leeham6230]

Read the passive on "Warrior's Blessing" and you will see why you weren't damaging Serqet in those early ganks. Warrior's Blessing is a great item to have against tic damage, and back in the day, when Mark of the Vanguard was a thing, I used to get Mark of the Vanguard in mid if I was up against Anubis. Cut the ult damage by ~33%. I wish the old starter items would come back; they added so much variety to the early game.

[@chaddoucet3265]

Shamans Ring/Pythags is really nice for ares jungle

[@zarnarclight6493]

I main Ares, as a jungle, yes, his Passive is trash, as a bruiser support, god like (no pun intended) building. I start with Tank boots then directly into gauntlet of Thebes, evolved give aura so great protections and +30 power for free, then Sovereignty and Heartward, throws protections to your ADC on top of your 2 then give you 60 power, then Runic Shield and Jade Emperors Crown, kills some of their power making you more tanky and makes it harder to kill your allies. finally if you have the gold switch boots for speed potion and pestilence or go full hate with Mythic Mail, resulting in ridiculous damage and insane protections and protection throwing

[@beasthayabusa1999]

I’m an ares main can confirm chains take forever to fly out

[@earthhuman192]

No, it means you can't aim 😬

[@beasthayabusa1999]

Franky Split didn’t say I couldn’t hit them they just have a long travel time nice try tho 😁

[@larrybyrd6596]

im so glad my fav god is buffed

[@TheJerry94]

What would you trade boots for?

[@UmiCore_]

didnt ares passive double the arua effect at one time?

[@MastYT]

i don't remember but that'd be a way better passive IMO

[@UmiCore_]

I tried looking at the patch notes and I didn’t see any indication that he even had that. But I think Ares himself should only get a 50% increase to aruas because 100% would just be over the top.

[@chiweweman2010]

Auras are amazing on ares it just gives free damage for being tanky. Even when jungling its hard to deal with a tanky jungler that still hurts. Also pythags piece gives 100 power on ares. Ares passive is awesome.

@@melikepeeps3001 alright, thank you for the intel.

[@Darkkai3]

Fourteen minutes in, Mast has been carrying around two wards for nearly ten minutes...

[@moonjune29]

The reason you did so little damage to Serqet at the start is because of Warrior's Blessing. Your damage at that point wasn't high anyways plus the Blessing gives health, protections (it was evolved already) and reduced every tick of Ares's chain + flames by 3, it might not seem much but it adds up to a point where you deal almost half the damage. Edit:Also, yeah, more health from Shillelagh.

[@Zaitekno]

u underestimate the lvld up ares 2. could have saved ur life MAYBE at around 21:52 rite after ne zha ult

[@davidkamps9879]

Hey mast, try ares chains on instant cast. Makes them feel like hunter autos, a bit easier to hit.

[@abec666]

Can you use the new item and throw like 6 chains in a row after ULT???

[@Jorge-wg9tq]

Yes

[@hisen3.146]

Even when Mast intentionally gives them a chance by walking into Janus ult at a decent range they still can't kill him.

[@shiggydiggyjones9953]

They should make Ares 2 count toward his passive.. it wouldnt change too much but it would help

[@thedude6810]

Best Ares item is gem of iso, prove me wrong Mast :D

I'm not sure why you said the scaling on ares' shackle is bad. It's 525 base dmg with 75% magical power scaling PER shackle. That's 225% if you hit all 3 chains with a 1 second gap between each shot.
