After having done a lot more pvp in modes outside of Arena I can tell you...

 

I suck haha. It seems I perform the best when in Arena maybe because it's open and team fights. I guess there's no need to beat myself up completely, I won a few good Jousts too. I like Arena and Joust. Really hate Assault and that saddens me. It's definitely no ARAM. The trouble in general I am experiencing in this game is that everything dies SO FAST. I get that it's intentionally a fast-paced MOBA, and that's kinda the point. This game has a knack for punishing your mistakes. I've seen people blow up at level 3 with one wrong move. I think I'll stick to my mages and guardians, I do the best on those.

 

I'm going to continue to play, of course. It's really cool to have a MOBA for my livingroom. Don't always like being isolated in the office.

I am fucking salty as anything about this. One time can I get a team that doesn't suck a billion dicks?

Scylla is pretty baller. I would perform better on her if it was keyboard & mouse. I fucking always jump the gun on controller and ult-slam off target. Old button mashin' habbits.

 

 

I wonder how Viking Invasion is, I really have not been into video games much lately. I do love the concept of "reimagining" as Norse gods. That Kali skin with red hair is pretty badass.

I already finished the Viking Invasion quests. It was fun, but felt really short-lived. Pretty worth it though if you have money to spare for the entry fee.  Aside from the two Chaac skins and the two Kali skins, you also get two chests that give a random skin for a Norse god; I got EpSolon Sol and Wrath of Valhalla Thor. And the Ymir announcer you get is hilarious. People dying all around me and the announcer's just all "can you... not"

 

As far as Scylla goes, I love her so much. She and Nu Wa are the only mages I'm any good with currently, and since it seems to be a double XP/favor/worshiper weekend, I'm abusing her a lot. Though as you can see, Scylla alone cannot hypercarry. Or maybe I just didn't go in hard enough, I don't know.

 

I got a pentakill with Anhur. My party fucking blew up because not five minutes beforehand one of the guys was all "Hey Cat stop sucking, get a fucking penta you shit"

 

So I did. And then we almost lost because there were four of us in the party and we were all just stopped dead laughing and just generally freaking the fuck out over it.

Nox and Chang'e are my bitches. I like the concepts they did for both of them, too. They both have play styles I like. Nox, great at CC, hurts, has a long range nuke for sniping teleports. Chang'e is EZ aoe support with evasion. I've out played a few Artemis' by breaking their traps.

 

I hate people who leave their headsets on though. I don't need to hear your terrible singing, or food crunch noises. I'm use to PC gaming where you genuinely hot key.

I haven't used Nox, but I did like Chang'e. I just don't really like supports in Smite, I don't know why. Like, I'm fine with guardians but the support mages feel a little underwhelming.

 

I also really don't like hybrids. I want to get good with Hel (I had a guy using her supporting me a few days ago and holy fuck he was good) but I don't like the whole switching between damage or heals. I feel the same way about Ullr, too. He's a hunter, but his ult switches him to a melee attacker. So if you want to use that you need to build slightly tanky, which means you won't be the glass cannon hunters excel at being.

 

Basically you can play him as a hunter or warrior, but he's terrible at both. It makes me sad.

I don't like those, either. It's not like LoL.

I have not watched pro games, but from I can see support is only good when you have another around. Like Change would need a Guan Yu or Ra on the team to help out. I've seen some shitty comps win because they had two healers. One healer doesn't do much.
