Olorun, Ruler of the Heavens, is Smite's newest and most broken auto based mage from the Yoruba pantheon. Like his predecessors, it will probably take the balancing team several months to figure out how to correctly balance him.

Olorun's Passive is Touch of Fate. This allows Olorun to gain 5% extra scaling on his basic attacks, which is something that the god reveal failed to mention. The description also fails to mention if this applies before 150 power or after 150 power. Upon further testing, using Ao Kuang as a base line, it is applied before 150 power. Upon Reaching 150 power from magical items, Olorun gains 15% crit chance for his basic attacks. This crit chance increases at a rate of 1% additional crit chance per every 10 power, maxing out at 70% crit chance or 700 power.

Olorun's 1st ability is Focused Light. Olorun Charges an Orb of Pure Energy for up to 2 seconds before firing it in front of him. The longer it charges, the further it goes, stopping on the first enemy god hit. This Ability can also critically hit. It is important to note that this is Olorun's lane clear, charging this ability gives no damage boost, so as soon as you can hit the last minion in the wave or you can hit your target, fire it. The god reveal also fails to mention that this can provide stacks for his 2nd ability when the 2nd ability is active.

Olorun's 2nd ability is Overflowing Divinity. Olorun power's up and gains attack speed, every successful basic attack provides his "Inner Sun" with energy. During this buff or for up to 4 seconds after, Olorun can activate this ability again to conjure his "Inner Sun" to damage enemies in an area. This buff provides Olorun with a 40% attack speed increase.

Olorun's 3rd ability is Concecration. Olorun Expends the light within himself, knocking back, damaging, and slowing enemies for 2 seconds. Allies in the area, including Olorun, are bathed in light and gain a heal over time. For every ally healed, Olorun gains extra protections for 5 seconds.

Olorun's Ultimate is Sanctified Fields. Olorun brings forth Olodumare and Olofi, who travel outwards, creating a large area of divine energy that distorts the flow of time within. All enemies caught within are negatively effected by the time dilation, moving slower in general, Olorun is himself is benefited in a similar way, moving faster in general. THis Area lasts for 5 seconds.

Notes

Leveling Olorun doesn't much differ from one game to the next, the only big thing you may consider is grabbing consecration instead of Overflowing Divinity at level 2. One will provide you with better clear, the other will provide you with a much need escape in mid when the jungler shows up in the next 15 to 30 seconds.

If you are playing Olorun ADC, you may be better off getting the 2nd rank of focused light at level 3 and then consecration at level 4.

It is beneficial to level the ult when ever you can, this lowers the ridiculously long cooldown to a more reasonable level.

In most situations, Olorun players will engage by activating overflowing divinity. In most cases, you will want to allow this to stack halfway before triggering it, since most players will be able to get out of it before it finishes. The only time where it would be beneficial to fully stack this is when you plan to use Sanctified Field. If you want to stack Overflowing Divinity faster, the best way to do so is by using Focused Light on a wave while Overflowing Divinity is active. Using Overflowing Divinity with Sanctified Field will give an even greater attack speed boost than either will alone. The full combo being to use Sanctified Field once Overflowing Divinity is fully stacked or almost fully stacked, use it, confirm the hit with focused light, activate overflowing divinity a second time, and then use basic attacks to finish them off.

Notes

Defeating Olorun early game is easy. You simply need to stand in front of the wave for the first couple times to stop him from clearing. Once more people figure it out, doing early game starts, like Bancroft's talon, will cease to make sense. Since Olorun is likely to lose the early game anyway, I recommend building into Book of Thoth, this will also be important later since it is the only way you will be able to max out his passive. Since Olorun is likely to have his 1 blocked anyway, it is far more beneficial to get hunter's blessing than mage's blessing. In most situations, beads will be your first relic unless going up against someone like Poseidon where you will need aegis.

Notes

This is the only way to get Olorun above 700 power, fully stacking his passive, without potions. Olorun does not need much attack speed since both Overflowing Divinity and Sanctified Field boost his attack speed well above 2.1 autos per second. Typhoon's Fang is duel purpose, allowing Olorun to keep up with hunters as well as playing off of Book of Thoth to give that extra boost of power. With Elixir of speed, I would recommend either Hastened Ring, or Telkhines Ring. By this point in the game, it is a little late to start stacking Shaman's Ring.
