I'm pretty new to Horus Support, but I hope this guide can help people that are learning new gods or trying to develop their skills :)

Notes

As Horus, you have the opportunity to play aggressive for the first few levels. If your ADC is confident enough and plays aggressively, I usually get 3 healing potions and chalice of healing (3) so then I still can heal over the poke from minions. I highly recommend this if the enemy team has an Aphrodite support, or any god that is useless from levels 1 - 4.

Notes

I almost always build Thebes, it's a very powerful item to have on if you're wanting to be tanky. However, if you find yourself behind in levels to the enemy's support, building Sovereignty then Heartward Amulet is better, because Thebes already takes time to evolve, and you have no protections until it has evolved. This alternative option will give you both magical and physical protections straight away; and if you wanted to, you could always buy Thebes when you sell your blessing alternatively.

Late game, building Brawler's Beat Stick or Titan's Bane is also a good option if you're wanting to do a little extra damage. Remember that you're still a tank, so only build one or the other, especially if you already have Blackthorn Hammer in your build.

Notes

When I play, I level Horus Ultimate last, because his other abilities are both much easier to use and more useful in unranked and Silver/Gold ranked games. His Ultimate is also almost always useless. Poor Horus. This is just a rough idea of how I would personally level Horus' abilities.
