I love your videos so muchhhh I've been playing smite and am on level 56 but some characters I just suck as and after watching your videos become great at least with them thank you so much!!!!
Every day while I start my shift, I check to see if there’s a new Shenmoki guide to listen to. You seriously deserve to be one of the biggest names in smite with these awesome videos :)
I’m commenting so people know how to build zhong kui another way lol I mean I love you shenmoki but I’ve played him a number of time with my build and end the game with top stats every time. I build tainted steel, prophetic cloak (eventually evolved), charon’s coin, chronos pendant, spear of desolation, and last ethereal staff. Relics (depends on who you’re up against, but I use beads and aegis or horrific emblem for hunters/assassins). I always end the game with top mitigated and top damage. Most of the time top kills too. I mean it works for my play style I like to be in the fights and up close and personal so that build allows me to rank and do a ton of damage. I haven’t tried it out in conquest but so far I’ve won every game mode other than conquest with that build. Hope you guys enjoy the input and build and your videos helped me a ton @shenmoki so I’m very appreciative of your channel.
Yeah Zhong uses Tainted Steel really well, and he works great with Prophetic Cloak especially considering how easily he can stack it with his first ability's poke. I'd probably go something like Magus over Chronos Pendant just for more percent pen
An excellent guide as always shenmoki. And one that I am expecially happy to see because I requested a zhong kui video in a comment on your Cerberus video. 100% agree to build zhong hybrid btw like a magical brawler. I love stone of binding on this guy. Keep up the good work you deserve more subs.👍
He definitely is my favorite mage very definitely has some terrible matches but he is my most played mage and in those hard match up It just feels impossible to do anything.
Yeah sometimes you get put in situations on him where you either need your teammates to make a good play for you or the enemy to mess up, and that moment never comes
@@Shenmoki can you try out my build on conquest? I always have top stats end game but I haven’t tried conquest. I build tainted steel, prophetic cloak, charons coin, chronos pendant, spear of desolation, and ethereal staff. I haven’t lost a game with him with that build. Seriously, I feel like he does so much damage that I don’t need to build him full power. Plus my play style is usually up close and personal I like to be in their face. So building a bit tanky allows me to stay in fights and destroy with his damage.
Zhong is a bit underAted , but he does have bad matchups for sure . The thing is , he will do a lot of damage even in bad matchups once he has both relics , but he is reliant on his team mates playing smart , following up and finishing the enemies off . Once he gets alternate timeline , and his full build late game , zhong will erase people from existence and definitely can end a game himself .
Don’t get me wrong we play totally different games, I play assault pretty much strictly so it’s less of a want to play hybrid half the time as much as of must lol
Yeah they're not bad at all. But a good one right now is Sands of Time > Bancroft's Talon (upgrade this into the Claw Glyph ASAP) > Spear of Magus > Typhon's Fang > Soul Reaver > Rod of tahuti. That build gives you excessive lifesteal for survivability, great damage with Spear and Rod, and good tank damage with Typhon's and Soul Reaver. Warlock's Staff is a safe build too. Sands of time > Warlock's Staff > Spear of Desolation > Divine Ruin > Ethereal Staff > Obsidian Shard This one relies more on being ACTUALLY tanky rather than relying on lifesteal to survive fights, so use this one if they have excessive hard cc (which would stop your damage) or built in antiheal (to stop the lifesteal)

thank you for watching brother!
Looool, I literally looked up for Zhong Kui guides earlier today and couldnt find any, nice timing
hey man I've just discovered your channel and I'm impressed by the quality of your content. Keep up with the good work my dude.

Great guide! I’d love to see a Nike and Guan Yu guide.
Thanks! I have a Guan guide already, but i'll add Nike to the list!
Needed this guide
Needed this comment
He’s the one mage you can truly build hybrid on
It's been a while since i've tried him hybrid, i gotta do it again sometime!
Don’t get me wrong we play totally different games, I play assault pretty much strictly so it’s less of a want to play hybrid half the time as much as of must lol
Are the builds used in this video still good to use?
Yeah they're not bad at all. But a good one right now is Sands of Time > Bancroft's Talon (upgrade this into the Claw Glyph ASAP) > Spear of Magus > Typhon's Fang > Soul Reaver > Rod of tahuti.
That build gives you excessive lifesteal for survivability, great damage with Spear and Rod, and good tank damage with Typhon's and Soul Reaver.
Warlock's Staff is a safe build too. Sands of time > Warlock's Staff > Spear of Desolation > Divine Ruin > Ethereal Staff > Obsidian Shard
This one relies more on being ACTUALLY tanky rather than relying on lifesteal to survive fights, so use this one if they have excessive hard cc (which would stop your damage) or built in antiheal (to stop the lifesteal)
@@Shenmoki Literally I needed this because every build I was finding was confusing me
I love you
i love you more
As someone with a masters border on zong don’t listen to his build choice. Its garbage
This is from 6 months ago :3
