Hey everyone! So I'll be starting a How to Main a God series! I'll be doing giveaways with all of them based on the God guide I'm making. If you would to join in on any of them, please follow me on Twitter or Instagram to participate! Any support is so much appreciated and I really hope these guides can help you. If there is a specific god you would like me to look into, let me know in the comments! :)
JR Thomas I like it on some gods. Nike makes great use of it. I'm not sure on its value compared to bumbas mask. I think it works better to get one of the other blessings and then get bumbas.
I just started playing Smite, realized the Baron was a playable character and chose him as my main without even playing a match. Haha, turns out, he’s beastly xd
Great guide, really professionally done. Was grandmaster as support in 2014-2015. I just started playing again after a long break. On the tierlist of supports how good is he? Thanks in regards, i subbed.
Hey! Thanks for the sub & comment 😁 as a support, he may be mid-tier ish... but Emilzy has said once that he is a really strong support. Welcome back to Smite! 😆
The good thing about Baron is that even if you aren't doing really well with Baron, you still give your team Baron's Brew, so it still makes me feel like I'm helping out when I'm going 1 and 5
at 01:22 I thought I should clarifying that Vivid Gaze reduces Attack Speed by 30% when above 30 Hysteria, not movement speed. The phrasing was a little unclear there. It's a great ability to apply on Hunters and any other auto attack dependant gods at the beginning of a fight. With the new Glad Shield next patch we will be seeing more AA gods so that's worth keeping in mind aspiring Baron mains! Great guide Teeds, I defo agree with those recommended items, 100% agree that Cooldown Boots and Spear of the Magus are core for Baron. No matter what role or build you're doing with Baron you're gonna want those two items imo. Spear of Magus protection shred can be applied really easily with his 3 and 4. My preferred build is starting with Mages Blessing, Baron's Brew, and Uncommon Staff. After that I build into Cooldown boots, Warlock Staff, Chronos Pendant, Spear of the Magus (I'll build Magus first if the enemy team already have a lot of protections by this point). The rest of my build varies depending on how the match is going. If it's going well I'll go for more damage, if I'm getting dove a lot I'll pick up Mantle of Discord. If I'm getting involved in a lot of fights but other players are securing kills more often than me then I'll lean into the utility of Baron and go for Gem of Isolation and/or Rod of Asclepius. A few tips and suggestions of my own for aspiring Baron mains. If you're playing him as a support you may want to consider leaving your 4 at rank 1 until you max out your 1 and 2 as you should be focusing on providing more utility for your team than damage. Also in the early game the Baron is very mana hungry so that's worth being aware of. I'd like to see a Discordia video next if you're willing, I'd be really interested to see what your builds for her are :)
Thank you for sharing your tips & opinions! & also yes, 100 percent correct! Thank you for adding that at 1:22! I've honestly learnt a lot from making this video as this is my first guide so I'll be sure to be more precise with certain wording! Can't wait to fight against you again! ;)
Oh and absoloutely will be doing Discordia sooner than you think! Maybe not the next one because I think I might do Ares or Pele with correspondence to the skin giveaway/god release. I love Discordia so much hehe.
For combos, remember they are stunned for 2 seconds and of low enough, just line up your vivid gaze for the kill, no need to full combo for a low target. For build I found this to be good Start mages blessing into tier 1 bancrofts, but the full build will be bancrofts, pen boots, typhoons fang, chronos pendant, magus, and soul reaver As a baron ten, I’ve had lots of time to try combos and builds this seems to be best for me at least. Good luck to everyone starting out playing this god! Lots of fun and really strong.
Haha thanks Schwoz! Combos are always situational at the time of course, 3 & 2 (especially if myself or allies need heals), 3 & 1 are what I use mostly. As for builds, each to their own! Although I'll add why I didn't suggest a life-steal build for Baron: - Heavily countered by anti-heal - Baron already has a self-heal built into his two and I love the heal he gives so much which is why I go with rod in my standard build! - No mobility, I find low CD's really help Baron out here. - His ult is just SO game changing for team fights. - CDR boots over pen boots. Baron stacks Spear of the Magus SO well that pen boots kind of makes it over kill!
SuperTeeds you bring some amazing points, although with this build that I suggested, it brings many options in and out of fights. With double lifesteal, it brings lots of power and lets you heal out of fights on a jungle camp for example. And as for cooldown, chronos pendant honestly brings plenty with 20% and a spectacular passive. Penetration is also present from magus and the boots. But the build you offered in the video can work extremely well in certain situations against most gods.
DukeSloth i appreciate the feedback from both of you, means a lot to have you guys help me and other out people with this video and comments. Means a lot to hear this from someone I’ve looked up to in the smite community for a while
Since you're planning to do a guide for every god, it may be a good idea to say the current patch at the beginning of each video so people can be aware of what may have changed. And I would enjoy a Kali guide.
Good idea! I'll put down in the description box! Oh man, I was such a huge fan of the old Kali, haven't really touched the new one. But I'll get around to that soon, I really want to test her out more :)
SuperTeeds I'm a fan of Kali but I find fighting against your teammates for her full passive benefits to be frustrating. It's one thing to get outplayed by an opponent and die, it's another thing to die just because your teammate gets the last hit.
Just decided to pick up Baron (since apparently I got the illuminator skin at some point) and oh my God, my 1 recharged in like 2 seconds and half healthed almost every god I was up against
Im trying to relearn the game left it for a good while and all the items an everything are diff now do you plan on doing one for chernobog, hou yi, or possibly hachiman
Hey, you can, I'm just not a fan of that build on Baron as I love CDR & sustain on him! I looked at some pro's who do use that build and currently only PrettyPrime has used a book build!
Lol I already know this series is inspired off of Bricky's League of Legends "So you want to main" series, but hey, I dont mind this spiritual successor
He makes these kind of Videos for League of Legends. Personally I like his comedic side on his Videos better. But your Videos are great for people who just got started playing Smite.
Zetanoid Yeah I just watched a little bit of the start! I haven't really played League before. Is he the main guide guy for LoL? & thank you so much! :D
If you are talking aboutbthe enemy, a liitle bar would appear alonside his life bar, the targe has over 30 hysteria when you see a skull laughing with the godn
May want to change the name of this serious >.> there's another UA-camr who used to make "So you want to main" videos but for league of legends. His name is bricky.
Alex Mercier hey there! So i already found out from another user and I had no idea he existed. & actually found out that there were many UA-camrs using this name it's just ONLY his is popular. I won't be changing this as I got this idea from "So You Think You Can Dance" which is a show I used to watch all the time when I was very young :)
Alex Mercier haha thank you for letting me know! After I found out I did look into copyrights and stuff. Thankfully, titles do not fall into that category! :)
This series will be so helpful to beginner/intermediate players getting into the game!
Thanks Lollygagger! I'm so glad!
can confirm
Me lol

I’ve been looking for a series like this
Yes! Love this series idea!
JR Thomas I like it on some gods. Nike makes great use of it. I'm not sure on its value compared to bumbas mask. I think it works better to get one of the other blessings and then get bumbas.
The only reason I play him is for his swaggy voice.
He’s the ultimate swag daddy that can take me down to his grave any day 😉
@@sandman4111 any time I hear his voice I forget that im straight 🤦🏾♂️
KENOXIDE damn y’all rly getting gay bc a game
guilty as charged right here
@@osiris2568 bold of you to assume we were never gay in the first place
I just started playing Smite, realized the Baron was a playable character and chose him as my main without even playing a match. Haha, turns out, he’s beastly xd
Don't really play Smite much anymore, but my
You are so so so sweet
Great guide, really professionally done. Was grandmaster as support in 2014-2015. I just started playing again after a long break. On the tierlist of supports how good is he?
Thanks in regards, i subbed.
Hey! Thanks for the sub & comment 😁 as a support, he may be mid-tier ish... but Emilzy has said once that he is a really strong support. Welcome back to Smite! 😆
@@SuperTeeds Thanks, just won 2 casual support baron games. Hes pretty good.
I just want to say, thanks.
I sucked with Baron, but since I've started using your build, I've been doing A LOT better!
I am so glad!!! You're welcome

Sidorio Great comment, helped me out a lot
Sidorio Quick question, do you ever take off mages blessing? Or do you want to leave it on the whole game?
Jackson Englade hey Jackson! You'll want to replace Mage's blessing when you can afford your last item.
I’m new to the game and all of your tutorials help a lot. Thanks for the help and hope you come back.
Thank you Kang! I'm settling in a new place right now, will be back with more guides soon! Welcome to Smite :)
Nice guide, I've been looking to try Baron now that it seems he's finally balanced.
Some people think he's still not balanced but I honestly don't have a huge issue vsing against him. Have fun with Baron! :)
Another great guide for one of my fav mages. Thanks again, Buyee.

I enjoyed reading your opinions! ♥
have a lovely day!!!
Thanks for the good explaining for Baron maybe i get better now with him
I really loved this when I first started him. I actually started using shield of regrowth to give myself a little more mobility
Thanks for the info been really looking to main one god in particular and this really helped me out

Great video! Do you think you could make one for Agni later on?
Absolutely! :)
Good stuff, Teeds. :)
Thank you nawk! :)
This series is awesome are you doing them in any specific order?
I go by popular requests so if you have any lmk! It will add a point to the next god :)
Im trying to relearn the game left it for a good while and all the items an everything are diff now do you plan on doing one for chernobog, hou yi, or possibly hachiman
Nice guide I subbed after watching plz do Ao Kuang next
Subscribed. Thanks for useful info.
Welcome! :D
Awesome guide, great job Teeds.

Thank you so much! Oh yes... I am excited to do them eventually 😍
nice video and good idea about that series
Wow! Very, very well done!
Ahh, thank you!
Love ya teeds!
Love you Kayla!!! ♥♥♥
I thank you very much for making this! I had a pretty ok build myself for him imma try yours out tho
Hey! This build is old now. I will make an updated guide:D
best reviews. Super informative. ty
This video was very helpful keep up the good work I don't know if you don't want yet on this God but if you haven't can you do one on Knox
Nice video, very informative
Thank you Alexys! :)
Besides mid, what is your favorite lane to run/role?
After mid it would be jungle!
I'm not the best at it yet, but I do enjoy it very much haha! Although I find it so stressful...
What would be the best way to play baron as a support?
I wanna see a fenrir or susano guide next!
Will you be doing more of these?
Yup! Going to release one for every god :)
I found this very helpful. Can you do one on Freya? Please?
I have a lot coming up, Freya one will probably be a few more gods down! :)
Best escape move cast souls on your feet and heal as they chase you
I love baron, favorite mage next to zhong!!!! I like shamans on this guy and you can bait out relicks with his 3 2 combo with cdr just spam it
But the build path: book of thoth>cdr boots>book of the dead,is still very good. Isn't it also a good build path for Baron??
Hey, you can, I'm just not a fan of that build on Baron as I love CDR & sustain on him!
I looked at some pro's who do use that build and currently only PrettyPrime has used a book build!
What would you use as your relics
It depends of the role and the situation you are.
Wow awesome actually i see it now for first time lol but thank u very match because wanted to buy baron samedi
wanted to ask what about life steal items we know he can Steal some health .. double life steal wont work ? gem or bancroft ? good or bad idea
Is he Still usable and good this time around?
Yes, but he doesn't peform well as a support but he is pretty powerfull in mid and solo.
Hi! Could you please do one for Persephone? It'll be a big help
I'm in love with your voice
Thank you :D
Nice vid
Thank you :)
Ok so is hysteria a item or is it a passive around baron himself
I have a suggestion, a Hades guide, he seems intresting
Why you stopped this series? :/
Plz do Rama next :D
5:24 love how no body calls it war lock staff. It's really freaking funny
Let's go on a date. On smite. :D
These recommend builds are very similar to what I use for hades
Lol I already know this series is inspired off of Bricky's League of Legends "So you want to main" series, but hey, I dont mind this spiritual successor
Can you do a he bo video?
Thanks m8.
Can you do one for Amaterasu
I just realized I have been using him very wrong I’m used to play Zeus and ravena I been just using magical power and penetration build
Wait... How did I get here. I Thought this was a BrickyOrchid Video...
Didn't know who that was so I just UA-camd him haha.
I actually got this title idea from a show I used to watch: "So You Think You Can Dance" :P
He makes these kind of Videos for League of Legends. Personally I like his comedic side on his Videos better. But your Videos are great for people who just got started playing Smite.
Zetanoid Yeah I just watched a little bit of the start! I haven't really played League before. Is he the main guide guy for LoL? & thank you so much! :D
Zetanoid rest in pepperoni old bricky
I mainly play Baron cause I want to have some Friends on the Other Side.
Pov you came here from teeds roasting herself video
Do a So You Want to Main Loki plz
Reminds me of Dr.Facilier
Do Artemis next!
Can't wait to to do Art! ^_^
Hopefully Disney doesn't notice, or doesn't care. He literally says come to the other side.
Ta-Da
How do u know how much hysteria u have?
If you are talking aboutbthe enemy, a liitle bar would appear alonside his life bar, the targe has over 30 hysteria when you see a skull laughing with the godn
Princess and the frog?

Is it just me or since the newest update is he better
Do the zhonger donger plz

Thanks cuz its really annoying getting reported only because you dont know how to build.....
May want to change the name of this serious >.> there's another UA-camr who used to make
"So you want to main" videos but for league of legends. His name is bricky.
Alex Mercier hey there! So i already found out from another user and I had no idea he existed. & actually found out that there were many UA-camrs using this name it's just ONLY his is popular.

SuperTeeds okay cool! Figured I would mention it before anything crazy happened!
Alex Mercier haha thank you for letting me know! After I found out I did look into copyrights and stuff. Thankfully, titles do not fall into that category! :)
SuperTeeds good to know! Keep up the awesome work 👍👍👍
this stuff is so confusing....
I need you as my wifey gamer cute and awesome 😁
