Create a guide on how to play Ymir in SMITE 2!

Ymir is one of the best choices to play support in smite 2 (for me, of course). He has impressive CC, explosive damage and amazing battlefield control.

Passive (Frostbite): all of his skills that hit an enemy combine Frostbite. It's basically a debuff that increases the damage of Ymir's basic attacks and reduces the damage of enemies hit. I always like to follow the use of the Skill with a basic attack, to increase the damage.

Skill 1 (Ice Wall): an ice wall is summoned that blocks movement and displaces enemies when cast and can be destroyed when you reactivate the Skill. If you use it on Ymir's feet, he is pushed forward and it works almost like a dash. You can use it either to block the passage and protect yourself or to trap enemies, just make sure you position it well according to your purpose.

Skill 2 (Glacial Strike): Ymir creates a line of ice spikes that deal magic damage and slow down enemies. I like to use it to clear waves of minions and even freeze them.

Skill 3 (Frost Breath): Ymir releases an icy breath that deals damage and stuns enemies. Excellent for starting fights and stopping that enemy who is your priority target. Preventing escapes is also a great application. The combination of this Skill with Ice Wall is excellent, as you can trap stunned enemies.

Ultimate (Shards of Ice): Ymir freezes the air around him and slows down enemies while channeling. After channeling, it explodes and deals mass damage. Very useful for dealing area damage in team fights and securing kills. For this I always try to position myself in the center of the fight, to ensure maximum benefit.

The build may vary a little depending on your role, but they all prioritize reducing cooldowns, defenses and magical power, always thinking about maximizing your CC and your survival on the field. Items such as Heroism, Blink Rune, Prophetic Cloak, Genji's Guard, Talisman of Purification and Circe's Hexstone are very useful for the build.

Always know how to position yourself, using Ice Wall with the right positioning will help you a lot. As support, try to control the route, place plenty of sentries and stay close to your rearguard so you can always protect when necessary. Ymir is an excellent choice, perhaps with a slight weakness in his mobility but nothing that hinders him too much, after all balance is everything.

This is the last one I had done from last week, it's time to do the new ones 💪💪

Ymir, the first living being in Norse mythology

As I always do, I'm going to tell you a little bit about the vision of this god in real life. He was the first living being in Norse mythology, created from the union of heat and cold, generating drops of ice, which became the giant Ymir. From his body the whole world was created, so here we have a question of genesis.

Moving on to the god we know in our game, I think Ymir is an incredible support! Even though people use him in the jungle and on the ground, what makes him so versatile? Simple, he has great damage and zone blocking, which allows him to guarantee safety or an engage, making him an incredible god to master.

Skills

Passive - Frostbite: All your skills that affect enemies will apply Frostbite, whereby your basic attacks deal 100% more damage and those affected by Frostbite deal 10% less damage, lasting 6s.

Skill 1 - Ice wall: Creates a wall that displaces enemies and applies Frostbite, just reactivate to destroy it. If you use it at your feet, it will allow you to move.

Skill 2 - Glacial strike: You will hit the ground and release ice spikes in a straight line, dealing damage and slowing down enemies. It also applies frostbite.

Skill 3 - Frost Breath: Unleashes a blast of ice in a forward cone, dealing damage and stunning enemies. Again, applying frostbite.

Ultimate - Shards of Ice: Will channel an ability around you, slowing you down and causing damage at the end, applying frostbite to enemies (For those who play lol, this is nunu's ultimate).

Play style:

You've already realized that he's a god who abuses slowness, can “close” a path and has great direct damage potential, so you first need to decide where you'll play him, as I said before, I like the idea of him support, but it's up to you.

Abuse your barrier, both to close jungle paths and to close opponents' escape paths, it's an extremely stolen skill, abuse it.

Your glacial strike has great potential for clearing waves, keep that in mind.

Your ultimate can and will change entire teamfights, be aware of positioning and casting.

Build SUPPORT:

I always follow Frgotenpower's builds.

This Ymir build is good for support, you have a lot of actives to help your team, and good defence items to fight longer.

This build is fun for jungle in normal conquest and low ranked matches, you can 1 shot any god (not tank) with 1 basic attack when your passive is active.

• Play around your teammates and help them, you have a lot of cc abilities, block any damage you can from your team to give them time to deal damage and kill enemies.

• As a jungle Ymir, you are strong early, you can kill any enemy early, so take this advantage to farm kills and level up very fast.
