Great format! Super helpful, easy to understand and parse the information. Cant wait to see the rest of the series on other roles! I know it's a bit more work, but would love to hear your thoughts/builds on some of the heroes not in your top 5 and why. Would have loved to hear about gadget and fey more in this one specifically. Otherwise it was great!
My man. This is why you are the greatest of all time. Detailed breakdown of what to pick and why you picked it, and what things to swap out depending and why.
Any mid laner not in this top 5 is countered by them... the top 2 have stuns n burst so keep that in mind when playing against these two everyone else has high burst n mobility.
W video keep taking advantage cuz ur the only one really dropping vids right now good quality vids atleast that being said u should make a video of all the bad matchups for each character and what counters them/ how u should play against a counter
subbed. thank you for the video been looking for some builds i miss paragon og days i played that and it got me hooked on smite for the longest time. keep up the good work
Love the format, could u also add matchups? especially for offlane where it really matters in the 1v1, maybe how the matchup goes pre 6 and post 6. might make it a longer vid but its hard to find this info
Great video look forward to more. Unfortunately midlane is pretty copy and paste for most of their builds. Would love alt builds if they're relevant enough like when you did the Rev. Mage build. Since burst makes got a buff mage rev might look strong.
It's copy paste cuz the items themselves got buffed so why not use them if they are strong if you try to go different you just get stat checked even if you're playing a mirror match.
For murdock I like putting vanquisher on 3rd if I'm ahead for the snipes and he does SO MUCH damage I'm like 3 shotting people. Then I do either demo and imperator 4th and 5th and usually equinox 6th.
For Argus - why Noxia over Megacosm? Been going rod/core -> leggings -> scepter/cosm -> cosm/scepter -> caustica/overseer -> ocrown and that’s felt really strong but maybe I should swap for noxia
With Argus I thought that the tainted scepter passive reset on each particle shredder round so you only get value on the first shot and each individual shot isn’t a ton of damage? Am I wrong here or do you just still think it’s worth regardless?
Can someone elaborate why you would finish your first item after the second? Don’t we want to finish building the first item before moving on to the next?
Azure core is soo good on belica since it does stack with her passive and with the low CDs on belica combustion feels lack luster. Megacosim is a better option
what no fey, a travesty I tell you!!!! Or maybe not, she's bit of a dodo without her alt. Has soulbinder been nerfed? it looks like it doesn't give 8 dmg anymore. I've been using timewarp instead early for mana sustain. Great video as always.
Hey Pinzo, I got into predecessor fairly recently and I watch every youtube vod you post. I enjoy the content and the way you break down your step by step approach to the game. I was wondering if you could do a vod review of my gameplay. I am particularly interested in wave management and when to join my team in fights. I feel like I get a little lost or I am not doing enough to help my team win the game. The game I have is 6d9772bd-024c-46e8-b9bf-cb8980307d7c I am the Grux Offlane. I am aware that I had quite a few mechanical misplays, and towards the end of the game I had given up hope. If you could talk about the early to mid game that is where I want to focus. - Wave Management and Rotations.
Why are you recommending combusion over megacosm? Is it just for the clear, or the pen as well? Just wondering cause mega procs on every ability hit and combusion is once every about 10 seconds
tbh disappointed no fey mention. there's no way fey isnt top 5 this patch and has been top since full release. maybe replace her with iggy/gideon/howi. top 3 midlaners feel like fey/argus/belica and every other mid slightly worse.
fey is a good lane bully & ganker before crests come online, but she isn’t as impactful as these 5. in team fights due to cleanse, it just completely nullifies her team fight (her ult)
my gideon build is completely different alot more aggressive and hits like a truck, i dont struggle with tanks or anything really im only in trouble if i get jumped by 2-3+ 1 v1 is nothing
(Full Explanation) - (Final Build)
5. Iggy and Scorch 1:11 - 3:29
4. Howitzer 3:55 - 6:55
3. Gideon 7:21 - 9:44
2. Argus 10:15 - 12:31
1. LT. Belica 12:57 - 16:07
I like this format, it's very helpful. Omeda is great, but they don't elaborate why items or characters are used in certain situations.
Love this format, would absolutely love this for every lane. Especially Offlane and Jungle, i feel builds are very ambiguous and flexible
it is a very good format. I cant wait to see the top 5 hero and build guilde: Jungle

To answer your question I dig the format. Love to see guides from you, keep sharing your wisdom.
My man. This is why you are the greatest of all time. Detailed breakdown of what to pick and why you picked it, and what things to swap out depending and why.
Now this is the video guide i’ve been waiting for! Ty Pinzo
Could u also say which midlaner is a counter to who next time?
Like matchups where u don't go down?
Any mid laner not in this top 5 is countered by them... the top 2 have stuns n burst so keep that in mind when playing against these two everyone else has high burst n mobility.
Great video dude! I really like this kind of videos for mobas especially with omeda’s long waiting periods.
W video keep taking advantage cuz ur the only one really dropping vids right now good quality vids atleast that being said u should make a video of all the bad matchups for each character and what counters them/ how u should play against a counter
This is the video I’ve been waiting on pinzo thanks for this very informative!!
Polo Flexing 🎉
subbed. thank you for the video been looking for some builds i miss paragon og days i played that and it got me hooked on smite for the longest time. keep up the good work
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for ❤
Love the format, could u also add matchups? especially for offlane where it really matters in the 1v1, maybe how the matchup goes pre 6 and post 6. might make it a longer vid but its hard to find this info
Fey is still my favorite and imo, the best midlander.
dang i just wrote a comment like yesterday asking for this, thank you so much!
I typically only play midlane and main iggy and morigesh, but I’ve been learning fey and she’s my favorite by far
Fey is bae.
Awesome. Pls do a wave management guide
Great video look forward to more. Unfortunately midlane is pretty copy and paste for most of their builds. Would love alt builds if they're relevant enough like when you did the Rev. Mage build. Since burst makes got a buff mage rev might look strong.
It's copy paste cuz the items themselves got buffed so why not use them if they are strong if you try to go different you just get stat checked even if you're playing a mirror match.
@pete i understand that.
Finaly this content thx pinzinho
For murdock I like putting vanquisher on 3rd if I'm ahead for the snipes and he does SO MUCH damage I'm like 3 shotting people. Then I do either demo and imperator 4th and 5th and usually equinox 6th.
Thanks for the great video
Big argus fan. How good do you think he is as a support? Also how would you build him as a supp?
Please do a build guide for Jungle next 😁
I personaly enjoy time flux band on midlaners that don't have escapes unless facing heavy cc
For Argus - why Noxia over Megacosm? Been going rod/core -> leggings -> scepter/cosm -> cosm/scepter -> caustica/overseer -> ocrown and that’s felt really strong but maybe I should swap for noxia
Surprised fey didn’t make the list
Can u do this with Supports? I Like to Play Argus on Support
Interesting. Should you not build more health items on Iggy? I always thought it was safer to have some tankiness
How would you build for countess?
Awh I was hoping for an updated Fey build
With Argus I thought that the tainted scepter passive reset on each particle shredder round so you only get value on the first shot and each individual shot isn’t a ton of damage? Am I wrong here or do you just still think it’s worth regardless?
You get the burst still regardless and it effectively adds up to the same amount of damage even if it's not at full stacks
Can someone elaborate why you would finish your first item after the second? Don’t we want to finish building the first item before moving on to the next?
Azure core is soo good on belica since it does stack with her passive and with the low CDs on belica combustion feels lack luster. Megacosim is a better option
you forgot about shinbi midlane
what no fey, a travesty I tell you!!!! Or maybe not, she's bit of a dodo without her alt. Has soulbinder been nerfed? it looks like it doesn't give 8 dmg anymore. I've been using timewarp instead early for mana sustain. Great video as always.
How does The Fey not beat Iggy and Scorch to this list? Clearly undervalued as a burst mage...

I personally go stasis only on howi or when against morigesh, otherwise I view soulbearer as a better crest
Hey pinzo you forgot to do the timestamps like you mentioned in the video
The Fey? Where's the love? Surely she must be too 5.
Grim mid is excellent against morgesh, completely counters her ult
Why are you recommending combusion over megacosm? Is it just for the clear, or the pen as well? Just wondering cause mega procs on every ability hit and combusion is once every about 10 seconds
Megacosm is good for killing tanks, not so good for killing minions
Damn Morigesh got shafted , she’s definitely my in my top 5 mid laners
do offlane next
Fuck yes
Big agree. Gideon absolutely needs Combustion to meet the mana and wave clear of other midlaners. A must build first item on him
No goers in the comments section?!
Rip fey :(
Here’s your kiss for the day Pinzo, *MWAH!*
If you be a real master iggy you can defeat anyone in mid but its not easy master him👍🏻
You don’t think the fey top 5 ?
tbh disappointed no fey mention. there's no way fey isnt top 5 this patch and has been top since full release. maybe replace her with iggy/gideon/howi. top 3 midlaners feel like fey/argus/belica and every other mid slightly worse.
Agreed I’ve felt like fey has consistently been one of the best mids for a couple patches now
fey is a good lane bully & ganker before crests come online, but she isn’t as impactful as these 5. in team fights due to cleanse, it just completely nullifies her team fight (her ult)
@@timezinfinityX the same argument can be made against any midlaner
I would take Fey over Gideon but im silver player so what do i know🤣
a good countess is better than gideon i promise
where the time stamps dog
If jungler be done for this Tryna find a good Khaimera build. Just started playing since paragon, so I forgot everything hoping khaimera is top 5
Ive got a good Khai SK3LLY02
If anyone has advice for Argus vs Murdock in mid, I’d appreciate it
At my wits end in solo que vs the cheating c- suckers
Do offlane next😔
my gideon build is completely different alot more aggressive and hits like a truck, i dont struggle with tanks or anything really im only in trouble if i get jumped by 2-3+ 1 v1 is nothing
And what is your build
SK3LLY02 Build?
First
