Pretty sure Geb will for sure be added because they're adding Nut. Plus in the patch notes show they already showed the renders for the cross-gen skins for Yemoja, Arthur, Sol, Ymir, Fenrir, and Anubis so i'd say those are confirmed.
For Hunters, you forgot Jing Wei, she has a cross-gen skin from the Legacy Pass! Though like you said, perhaps not on launch, but she's also on the easier-for-newcomers side so maybe?
Ya know I never really put any thought into whether Jing was beginner friendly or not. Her passive is 100% and her playstyle is very safe, but her kit has a bit more depth than you'd expect and isn't too damage focused until a few crit items in. Idk, food for thought I suppose.
Honestly, including super problematic gods like Yemoja and possibly The Morrigan early is probably a good idea, since it gives the devs more time to iron out any issues that they might cause before the game is in full swing.
@DallinHipps Yemoja's Omi system fundamentally breaks the game, and she's been a top 3 Guardian for years since her release. The Morrigan is the buggiest god in the game by far, to the point where she was literally unplayable on release because she would almost always fall out of the map, add an extra player to the game, or cause some other game-breaking bug.
Even if my favorite Gods aren't on the roster anytime soon, I hope that at least some interesting and fun changes get made to one's I don't like. I could take that and be content for a good while.
I can't wait to see Cthulhu in smite 2 It's gonna look amazing with his Ult and the new graphics All of his moves in general look really cool I do hope he comes out soon even if its not for release
One thing to note is that so far, no healer god has been confirmed. I do wonder if this means that they have special plans for healers as a whole and thus push them a bit to the back.
@@jackkemp176 No it wasn't. People just kept complaining because they couldn't get any kills. Healing is a main function of the support role. Ever since the rework, I can't really heal anyone.
Interesting point about magical ADCs in particular is that with the new Strength/Intelligence power split, it's possible they might be reclassified as Int-focused Hunters.
I do think there is a non-zero chance that Smite 2 will be the opportunity they use to rework out of Smite 1's class system and to give more classes formal names. Now that Magical and Physical power aren't linked to classes they might go with a League of Legends style route and have characters able to have two roles so you can understand their feel, or they could make their own system (perhaps the classes will be closer to Blaster (burst backline), Vanguard/Calvary (Diving/Ganking), Controller (CC oriented), etc)
Im so excited to see how some of these mage abilities look in the new engine. especially excited for merlin's effects. also i like that they are starting with a smaller roster and slowly adding people back. will make it a bit easier for new players to only have to learn about a new god every two weeks instead of jumping into a game with over 100. that is something i know that puts off some of my friends from trying the game.
I think thats a solid guess of character, though I do think we will get more then just 1 Hindu god added. Genesha seems very likely since hes very reconizable, Rama because he is a super simple hunter and rama snipes are as iconic as ra snipes, and agni because hes an OG god. So if I mostly agreed with your list I would replace Chiron with Genesha, Hachiman with Rama, and Janus with Agni. I do hope arachne does get a rework coming to smite 2. they could go super hard into her spider nature with UR5 that they couldnt do in smite1. Let her climb on walls, physically build webs or have webs grow over time as the children on them work on it after she places it which would fill up the jungle with webs, and bring back her old 3 to be a jumping spider leap into a feeding thing, would be fun and cool. Hell make that an improved ult where she leaps up onto the ceiling like she does since thats very spider like, and when she leaps down, not only does she make the web ground, but the target she lands on is stunned as she bites and claws them. I would not mind waiting for arachne to be one of the last gods released before the full launch if they upgrade her to be more unique and spider like
Have you considered making a video about gods who might get a minor rework in Smite 2? For example I find it very thematic, if Hou Yi and Chang'e would get a minimal reference in their kit to each other like Horus and Set.
9:32 This aged poorly 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I agree with your pics for the most part, but I do have some things: Janus will proabbly not be in the first roster, as I think they may want to put a more well known god there like Poseidon or Hades. Jing Wei got a skin so she may be in the roster actually. For assassins, I think Mercury being well known will also make it, but whether he gets rebranded into Hermes, that will be another question.
9 minutes and 56 seconds into the official Keynote, Susano is on the screen of someone working on Smite 2, alongside Karthur and a few gods that are too hard to see in the back, and a few of the already in roster.
I heard you say Rama with the hunters but considering the amount of shit from the past i think hi-rez will not use the Hindu Gods anymore, i mean they did not continue the Hindu list in the last few seasons so i think we will not have Rama anymore honestly
In the keynote they show a screen of someone working on the game and you can see models for susano, the morrigan, zeus, and ho yi. So i think that means they are confirmed
I stopped playing smite shortly after the Cthulhu release. This has me interested in this game even though it infuriates me sometimes. Edit: I hope we get Cerberus back I need my boy
I'm a beginner smite player who ended up picking up skadi, wukong, and Nezha as they're some of my favorite mythological/fictional characters. I hope to see at least one of my main picks to make it in!
I hope I don't have to wait too long for Heimdallr, I get that he's probably not the most popular hunter but I think that he's really unique and fun to play as well as having a really well designed kit that can express a player's skill really well. Also, for Guardians i think Maui is more likely than Kuzenbo.
I can appreciate that it will take a lot of time to have all the gods remade essentially in the new game, but I feel like 2/month is going to take so longgg to get all our favorite gods added.Starting with 50 (with 5 being brand new) and collectively adding only 24 old gods per year X.X
I know it can be a little confusing for those who are already used to it, and I agree that for the video to be clear, symmetry was a good idea. But I have strong reason to believe that the current class structure of smite will change. We have Ao kuang and Mamam Brigitte practically in the wrong class and warriors and guardians working in each other's lanes. I would like to see a clearer definition of the characters in Smite 2, something that better indicates the character's functionality and capabilities. (Considering that there are no more magical and physical damage, the separation by range will be the only one that makes sense, but something like "Fighter" or "Protector" in the case of tanks makes much more sense)
i assumed (by the way they talk about her) hecate would be a hunter, but it did occur to me that she's probably a mage adc, and it would be pretty stupid for the godess of magic not to be a mage. or is that nut I'm thinking of
If you watch the announcement of smite 2 you can see susano on their computer as if they was working on him so I feel like he’s always gonna be a playable pretty soon
Personally I have to believe that every Pantheon will be represented in the new game. Meaning that Cthulhu has to be a 100% and either Chern or Baba will be an addition. And i truely believe that one of the mages will be The Morrigan, alowing new players to play her early on with a smaller roster will boost their understanding of every god and continue to boost their knowledge as more are released plus her ult might be the most unique in the game and she fills the role of a semi assassin mage.
My 10k worshipper tyr and 9k mercury are the 2 I really hope makes it in release or early on. So much fun to play either constantly aggressive tank, or one shot monster with crit. those 2 gos will always be my favorites. Cant wait either way
Apollo would be a better pic than Artemis. Considering his like extreme popularity in the earlier of smite era and the fact that you know him barracuda look exactly the same no I am more partial to AMC or X ball. Also Zeus is more likely to be one of the Mages as they've already shown that they're working on his kit as is which was part of the dev trailer or Dev talk thing
I’m hoping that with smite 2 being built from the ground up they bring smite 1 gods back as their reverted state like Nox, erlang, pers, etc! That would be amazing
@@WendyWhaleiams everyone knew how to dodge her flowers, the explosion was kinda nice yes, but the burst damage from her current 2 is just stronger. overall she is just a lot more controllable. the only thing i´d change about her kit is make her 1 go through walls
You forgot about my assassin boy Fenrir with his massive tons of bonus damage with his Runes. I love playing Bellona, Mulan, Sun Wukong, and even Surtr(although I played him once), but i also feel like you should have added a few others, like Tyr the friendly God of War, or the Shiva. You should've mentioned my girl Tiamat with her massive tons of Magical damage and the minions she can summon ranging from serpents, minotaurs, and torrents of wind. Heck, even Hel and Merlin. Not to mention Tia was mentioned in the lore with a special bond with Nut. As for Hunters, you forgot about Ishtar, Martichoras, and my boy Cernunnos, the God of Animals. And finally, as for Guardians, you forgot about Sobek, Atlas, and my boys, Jörmungandr and Ganesha. Speaking of Geb, he should definitely be involved since his girlfriend is.
idk if you’ve touched on this but are there any gods you think they should use this as a chance to revamp? either majorly or smaller like a move or passive? i’d really like to see old persephone passive reimplemented
Really hope King Arthur gets a nice rework, man is strugglig badly, a god shouldnt need to rely 100% on items to be viable, but sadly arthur is stuck like that.
I really hope they'd add The Morrigan into the 50 god roster first. She's not popular yeah but ever since her release, she's been a super buggy god because of her ultimate. Adding her very early would squash those bugs and allows the devs to fix even more bugs from newer god releases. Additionally, she's one of the hardest characters to master in the game so having a god roster with diverse skill levels is always good.
@@FrostBeam009yeah her 1 and her 3, but her ult is basically usless as just holding a does more damage and at a faster pace and her 2 barely has any use past 20 minutes except for wave clear as the downtime to cast it could be time spend spamming autos
I wonder if they will do something special for god mastery. Not necessarily carry over but something to show you put in the work and hours for said gods?
If you look at keynote closely, in 11:38 u will see closed beta gods, there was both gods that we have seen in keynote gameplay (Anubis, Odin, Kukulkan, Ymir) , and some new gods (Ra, Sobek, Arthemida, Arachna, Hades). So, as i understand, all of gods in this panel will be in SMITE 2 at launch. But, i may be wrong. Good video tho!
I know that they traditionally just pick gods to be in the game but at this point we have a lot of examples of more fairy tale or just generally mythological figures being in smite so with that said these are my hopes for new smite characters. Warrior: Petrocules, Assasin: Kitsune, Guardian: New cosmic horror, Hunter: ROBIN HOOD!
Forgive me, Zeus shilling incoming LOL (I cut this comment down a ton, I was about to shill on another level 😂) I know Zeus was your last mage.... I will say, I will be very disappointed if he is not available at launch. He is way too Iconic in actual Greek mythology. If you have heard of any of his 700 children then you have heard of him.
New gods in my guesses might be the following: Kronus, The God Devouring Titan. I want that Tahm Kench like Gameplay kit of his Sekmeth, the Goddess of Famine Anansi, the Spider God of west African myth (new pantheon plss) Hanuman, the Monkey God from hindu myth Fujin the Japanese god of wind (unlikely because it might get claimed my MK universe) Circe of greek (good for mage role but i think hecate took that place already. We can still hope) Enkidu from Babylonian myth so that Gilgamesh can reunite with his man wife. Perseus, Slayer of Monsters for the demigod type That's it. Plus points if i predicted at least one of them
@@shiningamaterasu2579MK can’t object anyways lmfao. You can’t claim a Japanese myth as your property simply because you made a character inspired by it.
I main Chang'e and I'm just praying they're thinking 'well Chang'e is easy, maybe new players will enjoy her.' But honestly, she needs an update/rework imo, and she has for years. It's crazy to me how they changed a slippery, high mobility, low cooldown, short range battle mage into a feast or famine, blink in and 1 shot or don't mage. I just always feel icky locking her in because... why would you???
I really hope chang’e and sol make it in I’m just afraid with the changes to items that some characters that I play won’t be good when they separate auto attack and ability damage with mages
Needs longer in development if over half the roster is missing. Gameplay will get stale quick when majority of gods are afk and all new content which will basically be slight changes to some gods kits. At best is not worth them releasing 1/4 of the roster to prioritise 5 new gods then have them try to work on both new and old gods at the same time which will impact other areas of development cause there spending more resources trying to get to square 1. To sum it they need to let it cook longer, would rather enjoy Year 11 and have a more complete sequel than rush out an inferior product just cause they want to start earning money asap and they know that in this day and age you can release incomplete games and take 1-2 years to get it to the stage if should have been at launch. Speaking of Launch it need to bring new and returning players and retain them cause spitting the already small playerbase into another game with 4-6 separate regions which then splits again for “new” game modes. So 2 games, 12 game modes and 8 regions in total. We’re going to be stretched thin so if launch sucks cause over 50% of the roster is missing and most future content is content/gods we have already played for years will not retain players and will most likely cause both Smite and Smite 2 to die. Because Smite is dead in my server already aka impossible to find games then if by miracle you find one then you have dogshit matchmaking and both are just going to get worse without a more populated playerbase due to a massive split in playerbase. Players will easily choose Smite over Smite 2 until they finish Smite 2 cause content and gameplay is way more important than graphics and staying on Smite means I don’t even have to worrying about losing skins either. If I knew they were going to release a quarter of the full game I wish they didn’t announce it cause this in my opinion will do more harm than good
Something I’m wondering is if they’ll move gods to different classes, because of the change of power types. It’s annoyed me for a while that Ao Kwang is a mage despite being an assassin that does magic damage, Maman adding to that annoyance, and I’ve assumed that’s had to do with separation of magic and physical. Sol and Olorun are sort of annoying for the same reason, but they thematically work as Mages.
I’d get rid of rat and ravana and say that Bastet/awilix/Susano are probably more likely. Yemoja is confirmed, she has a cross gen skin. And I’m hoping that Demeter is the new guardian and that instead of her being put into the year 11 lineup they just wait and flesh her out for the new game.
(Just my opinion) I'd miss Hou yi and Apollo. Tbh, I didnt thought I'd see Apollo on this list he isnt that popular sadly. But Hou yi? I would love to see him. Come on hirez give me at least one of ma bois ♥ I still have hope. xD
Yemoja is a balancing nightmare do to her design. Stat wise she is garbage. However no mana with a passive regen of her resource. Combined with no cooldown for abilites and the way her abilities work. She is just unbalanced by concept. Yes she has high ban/pick and win rates... But it is not cause of her stats it is because of her design. Rework her from the ground up.
Im so ready for this. Im basically edging every time I see something about smite 2. Fuuuuuckkkkkk. Fuck my skins, give me smite 2. Keep my gems. Just gice me smite 2. Thanks.
I am in the mind that most of my favourite gods, the likes of Tiamat and MLF will not be there at launch, and likely won't be there for some time. But damn, am I confident that when they do arrive, they'll be even more enjoyable than their Smite 1 counterpart. I am content on waiting, but man, this switch to Smite 2 will be painful at first, but will bare more fruit than Smite 1 eventually. Also regarding the Magical adc thing, Sol already has a crossgen skin. So it's likely she'll be there.
The thing that leaves a bad taste in my mouth is the new legacy pack that you buy in Smite 1 HAS TO be bought with cash. You can use in-game gems that you bought. #MoneyGrab I don't trust SMITE at all now
I really hope Ziz comes at some point, but I kinda don't want him to be a guardian it feels like they make most monsters guardians, just because they're monsters. Personally I'd want him to be either an assassin or a warrior
they confirmed skins for gods like aphrodite and others in a pic when talking about new/carry over skins... so my guess theyll be part of launch that were included in that image.
I Think atlas is a good shout for a guardian over kuzenbo or sylvanus, I think Atlas has much more pop culture appeal, so i can see him being there for recognition of players giving the game a shot, hes also easy to play as so more likely people will have fun and stay around
I hope Cupid and hades get a remodel. I hate seeing Cupid looking so out of place. And hades needs to look good like his brothers. And imo I would like for fenrir to get a remodel too. Fenrir looks more like a dog man in a game full of gods and it don’t sit right with me. Hell bake kujira looks better than him. I hope they make him look like an actual huge wolf
I know they already confirmed Fenrir getting a cross skin…. But man it would have been funny if hirez pulled the same thing with Fenrir that they did in smite 1 where people kept thinking he was the next god to be released lol
Jormungar is my main so if they adding Hel too. They already got Fenrir so why not his brother and sister. Can't wait for rework for my snake boy Jormungar and his lines.
Yemoja, Fenrir, Jing Wei and Sol already have confirmed Cross-Gen skins, so there's an additional 4 to the 18 in this video.
WOOO I was hoping for yemoja
Fenrir is the ONLY character I must have, perfect
@@t10ehI completely agree
Unpopular opinion but I wish we got daji on launch
FENRIR TIIIIME!
Fenrir has been my main since May 2013 😢. We’ve been together since the very beginning. I can’t imagine Smite without Fenrir
Pretty sure Geb will for sure be added because they're adding Nut. Plus in the patch notes show they already showed the renders for the cross-gen skins for Yemoja, Arthur, Sol, Ymir, Fenrir, and Anubis so i'd say those are confirmed.
Oh damn bringing Yemoja early on is a BALLSY move. I like it!
Bes Nut Geb? ROTMG???
Imagine Yemojas ultimate with unreal 5 😍

I didn't know she had a cross-gen. Most likely there at launch then given she's an easy fan-favorite.
Ya know I never really put any thought into whether Jing was beginner friendly or not. Her passive is 100% and her playstyle is very safe, but her kit has a bit more depth than you'd expect and isn't too damage focused until a few crit items in. Idk, food for thought I suppose.

I’m hoping that with smite 2 being built from the ground up they bring smite 1 gods back as their reverted state like Nox, erlang, pers, etc! That would be amazing
I will be obsessed if Persephone gets her old kit back
as a 44 star persephone i can say it would be terrible if they revert her
@@persephone9084 44 stars is crazy!
@@persephone9084 but why do you think that the revert would be so bad?
@@WendyWhaleiams everyone knew how to dodge her flowers, the explosion was kinda nice yes, but the burst damage from her current 2 is just stronger. overall she is just a lot more controllable. the only thing i´d change about her kit is make her 1 go through walls
You forgot about my assassin boy Fenrir with his massive tons of bonus damage with his Runes.
I love playing Bellona, Mulan, Sun Wukong, and even Surtr(although I played him once), but i also feel like you should have added a few others, like Tyr the friendly God of War, or the Shiva.
You should've mentioned my girl Tiamat with her massive tons of Magical damage and the minions she can summon ranging from serpents, minotaurs, and torrents of wind. Heck, even Hel and Merlin. Not to mention Tia was mentioned in the lore with a special bond with Nut.
As for Hunters, you forgot about Ishtar, Martichoras, and my boy Cernunnos, the God of Animals.
And finally, as for Guardians, you forgot about Sobek, Atlas, and my boys, Jörmungandr and Ganesha. Speaking of Geb, he should definitely be involved since his girlfriend is.
Crit Ymir is coming back
idk if you’ve touched on this but are there any gods you think they should use this as a chance to revamp? either majorly or smaller like a move or passive? i’d really like to see old persephone passive reimplemented
Why y’all keep trying to change Freya? Someone explain it to me. Also I’d like to see THE MIGHTY GOD SCYLLA!!
I doubt Jorm will make the initial roster, though I really hope he does. I want my big snek boi, lol.
Really hope King Arthur gets a nice rework, man is strugglig badly, a god shouldnt need to rely 100% on items to be viable, but sadly arthur is stuck like that.
I really hope they'd add The Morrigan into the 50 god roster first. She's not popular yeah but ever since her release, she's been a super buggy god because of her ultimate. Adding her very early would squash those bugs and allows the devs to fix even more bugs from newer god releases. Additionally, she's one of the hardest characters to master in the game so having a god roster with diverse skill levels is always good.
Havent played smite in ages, am so hyped for this but hope they will release Cliodhna asap
Charybdis better be in there and reworked or I will riot she has been done so dirty she literally has 2 abilities and that’s it
What? She has some fine abilities
Same with freya. Kit is boring as hell
She needs a rework so bad, wonkiest kit by far with no synergy at all
@@FrostBeam009 I'd tweak the ult
@@FrostBeam009yeah her 1 and her 3, but her ult is basically usless as just holding a does more damage and at a faster pace and her 2 barely has any use past 20 minutes except for wave clear as the downtime to cast it could be time spend spamming autos
I wonder if they will do something special for god mastery. Not necessarily carry over but something to show you put in the work and hours for said gods?
It's confirmed there will be a badge system of some sort to honor your mastery with said god.
@@themightyruler1319 Nice to hear they are respecting the time we put into it!
If you look at keynote closely, in 11:38 u will see closed beta gods, there was both gods that we have seen in keynote gameplay (Anubis, Odin, Kukulkan, Ymir) , and some new gods (Ra, Sobek, Arthemida, Arachna, Hades). So, as i understand, all of gods in this panel will be in SMITE 2 at launch. But, i may be wrong. Good video tho!
I know that they traditionally just pick gods to be in the game but at this point we have a lot of examples of more fairy tale or just generally mythological figures being in smite so with that said these are my hopes for new smite characters. Warrior: Petrocules, Assasin: Kitsune, Guardian: New cosmic horror, Hunter: ROBIN HOOD!
Probably should link the music you used considering they're also youtubers.

Forgive me, Zeus shilling incoming LOL
(I cut this comment down a ton, I was about to shill on another level 😂)
I know Zeus was your last mage.... I will say, I will be very disappointed if he is not available at launch. He is way too Iconic in actual Greek mythology. If you have heard of any of his 700 children then you have heard of him.
New gods in my guesses might be the following:
Kronus, The God Devouring Titan. I want that Tahm Kench like Gameplay kit of his
Sekmeth, the Goddess of Famine
Anansi, the Spider God of west African myth (new pantheon plss)
Hanuman, the Monkey God from hindu myth
Fujin the Japanese god of wind (unlikely because it might get claimed my MK universe)
Circe of greek (good for mage role but i think hecate took that place already. We can still hope)
Enkidu from Babylonian myth so that Gilgamesh can reunite with his man wife.
Perseus, Slayer of Monsters for the demigod type
That's it. Plus points if i predicted at least one of them
to solve the issue with Fujin, Just use the other name the god goes as Fūten or Ryobu.
MK and the neatherrealm team cant object if they do that
@@shiningamaterasu2579MK can’t object anyways lmfao. You can’t claim a Japanese myth as your property simply because you made a character inspired by it.
I main Chang'e and I'm just praying they're thinking 'well Chang'e is easy, maybe new players will enjoy her.' But honestly, she needs an update/rework imo, and she has for years. It's crazy to me how they changed a slippery, high mobility, low cooldown, short range battle mage into a feast or famine, blink in and 1 shot or don't mage. I just always feel icky locking her in because... why would you???
Why isn’t Scylla considered
I hope so too
0:41 My Colchis Goddess HECATE
I really hope chang’e and sol make it in
I’m just afraid with the changes to items that some characters that I play won’t be good when they separate auto attack and ability damage with mages
I just realized they're not gonna have any mages I would say I'm best as 😢
Needs longer in development if over half the roster is missing. Gameplay will get stale quick when majority of gods are afk and all new content which will basically be slight changes to some gods kits. At best is not worth them releasing 1/4 of the roster to prioritise 5 new gods then have them try to work on both new and old gods at the same time which will impact other areas of development cause there spending more resources trying to get to square 1. To sum it they need to let it cook longer, would rather enjoy Year 11 and have a more complete sequel than rush out an inferior product just cause they want to start earning money asap and they know that in this day and age you can release incomplete games and take 1-2 years to get it to the stage if should have been at launch. Speaking of Launch it need to bring new and returning players and retain them cause spitting the already small playerbase into another game with 4-6 separate regions which then splits again for “new” game modes. So 2 games, 12 game modes and 8 regions in total. We’re going to be stretched thin so if launch sucks cause over 50% of the roster is missing and most future content is content/gods we have already played for years will not retain players and will most likely cause both Smite and Smite 2 to die. Because Smite is dead in my server already aka impossible to find games then if by miracle you find one then you have dogshit matchmaking and both are just going to get worse without a more populated playerbase due to a massive split in playerbase. Players will easily choose Smite over Smite 2 until they finish Smite 2 cause content and gameplay is way more important than graphics and staying on Smite means I don’t even have to worrying about losing skins either. If I knew they were going to release a quarter of the full game I wish they didn’t announce it cause this in my opinion will do more harm than good
no hard difficult guardian for higher level of gameplay?
no Terra, or Artio?
also, sad but Yemoja was half confirmed through Lecacy / CrossGen Skins
Something I’m wondering is if they’ll move gods to different classes, because of the change of power types. It’s annoyed me for a while that Ao Kwang is a mage despite being an assassin that does magic damage, Maman adding to that annoyance, and I’ve assumed that’s had to do with separation of magic and physical. Sol and Olorun are sort of annoying for the same reason, but they thematically work as Mages.
I’d get rid of rat and ravana and say that Bastet/awilix/Susano are probably more likely.
Yemoja is confirmed, she has a cross gen skin.
And I’m hoping that Demeter is the new guardian and that instead of her being put into the year 11 lineup they just wait and flesh her out for the new game.
(Just my opinion) I'd miss Hou yi and Apollo. Tbh, I didnt thought I'd see Apollo on this list he isnt that popular sadly. But Hou yi? I would love to see him. Come on hirez give me at least one of ma bois ♥ I still have hope. xD
Yemoja is a balancing nightmare do to her design. Stat wise she is garbage. However no mana with a passive regen of her resource. Combined with no cooldown for abilites and the way her abilities work. She is just unbalanced by concept. Yes she has high ban/pick and win rates... But it is not cause of her stats it is because of her design. Rework her from the ground up.
Im so ready for this. Im basically edging every time I see something about smite 2. Fuuuuuckkkkkk. Fuck my skins, give me smite 2. Keep my gems. Just gice me smite 2. Thanks.
I am in the mind that most of my favourite gods, the likes of Tiamat and MLF will not be there at launch, and likely won't be there for some time.
But damn, am I confident that when they do arrive, they'll be even more enjoyable than their Smite 1 counterpart.
I am content on waiting, but man, this switch to Smite 2 will be painful at first, but will bare more fruit than Smite 1 eventually.
Also regarding the Magical adc thing, Sol already has a crossgen skin.
So it's likely she'll be there.
Full stop.
What's that background music? Is that maplestory??
The thing that leaves a bad taste in my mouth is the new legacy pack that you buy in Smite 1 HAS TO be bought with cash. You can use in-game gems that you bought.
#MoneyGrab
I don't trust SMITE at all now
I really hope Ziz comes at some point, but I kinda don't want him to be a guardian it feels like they make most monsters guardians, just because they're monsters. Personally I'd want him to be either an assassin or a warrior
If they really wanted to make an explosive showing in the beginning. I would bring in horus, maui, and Ganesh. Make this thang fast paced.
I think Scylla will be in Smite 2 upon release. Smite doesn’t feel right without Scylla. She is extremely popular and her kit is very basic.
If they plan on shutting down smite's servers for smite 2, I better get a free god pass, otherwise I'm switching to DOTA lol.
they confirmed skins for gods like aphrodite and others in a pic when talking about new/carry over skins... so my guess theyll be part of launch that were included in that image.
I think Ganesha might be one of the Guardians. Very unique and probably the most recognizable Hindu god.
I Think atlas is a good shout for a guardian over kuzenbo or sylvanus, I think Atlas has much more pop culture appeal, so i can see him being there for recognition of players giving the game a shot, hes also easy to play as so more likely people will have fun and stay around
I WANT THANATOS
I hope Cupid and hades get a remodel. I hate seeing Cupid looking so out of place. And hades needs to look good like his brothers. And imo I would like for fenrir to get a remodel too. Fenrir looks more like a dog man in a game full of gods and it don’t sit right with me. Hell bake kujira looks better than him. I hope they make him look like an actual huge wolf
I know they already confirmed Fenrir getting a cross skin…. But man it would have been funny if hirez pulled the same thing with Fenrir that they did in smite 1 where people kept thinking he was the next god to be released lol
Jormungar is my main so if they adding Hel too. They already got Fenrir so why not his brother and sister. Can't wait for rework for my snake boy Jormungar and his lines.
My boi Merc gotta speed his way in
Hopefully with a better kit
Really funny how people compare smite 2 with overwatch 2. Really funny
As a Khepri main, I'm happy with your predictions, but the tought of Nox arriving early makes me want to rant on Twitter.
Oh that makes me happy. Seeing Thana and Susano have high chances to be added on release!! Nice
I'm pretty sure Zeus will make it into the alpha
No Egyptian assassin doesn’t seem right. I would replace ravana with Bastet.
A god brought over every TWO WEEKS?! Holy cow, that's way faster than I expected them to.
No assassins from the past 3/4 years in your prediction ? I don't think it's unlikely, but it would be very disappointing
