Teaser for upcoming sale(s?): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmeYImS2PJ4 Previous years it was discounts on gems and skins. Not sure what they plan this year since there was a big gem sale during Dreamhack. Chest sales? Last year, they gave out 10 gems for first wins of the day. I didn't get much done yesterday because of how tryhard and toxic the games were that I were in (get first blooded, immediately rage quit). I'm really starting to hate the free gems on first wins and I wish there was another way. But I'm sure if there was something like "10 gems for just playing each mode" people would be loving AFKing in base. edit- Glad I'm not the only person that feels this way: https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/4q6kcr/discussion_gem_events_should_not_be_based_on_wins/ cyclonic fucked around with this message at 13:42 on Jun 28, 2016 |

VELOUR SPACESUIT posted:In just silhouette I was assuming it was an Ao Kuang skin, but is it time for the Erlang Shen reveal? (The jewel on his headpiece will be his "third eye" I guess?) I was thinking Lu Bu because of how Chinese writing talks about how he's a demon and all that. Though I guess he wasn't really exonerated to godhood. But just that design definitely reminded me of how they generally make him look in other games. Edit: But I guess Erlang Shen makes sense due to data mining.

I was thinking about "God when was the last time we had an actual warrior that's supposed to build damage and attack speed." So it's kinda cool. He doesn't seem THAT powerful, but the dog is a nice damage buff.

That is not a Guan buff. His potency came from his consistent high healing and now not only does his passive take 50% longer to stack, it can be burned on other abilities. e: and partial stacks can't be used Ben Nerevarine fucked around with this message at 23:26 on Jun 29, 2016 |

Curse needed nerfed, and Hel makes me leery because she was highly effective in joust but worthless everywhere else. They overnerfed her way back, but they should have made her self heal stronger instead of her team heal if they wanted to make her conquest viable again. I'm a little unhappy about the golden bow vanishing act when they could have just reverted it to the season 2 version. I had some fun gimmick builds that just won't exist without golden bow, and I've been using those builds since season 1 with varying success. On the other hand, the current golden bow and hunter meta is unfun and turns the duo lane into a question of which duo has better CC so I completely understand just blowing up golden bow. The new god is going to take some time to look at and get tuned. A shield+dash, a massive heal in his ult, a root... he is going to be decently hard to pin down and kill once he gets going. The Guan change is hilarious and unneeded, and destroys the way a lot of late solo players used him as a machine gun healer in the middle of fights. Now he will just be a consistent drizzle of healing in and out of fights. I'm laughing pretty hard at how divided the community seems to already be over how this either turns him into a monster or utterly destroys him.

One of those fairly uncommon changes that is clearly imbalanced right there on paper, like that one brief time Nox had 90% scaling on her 3. Not to mention giving Odin a new passive is unnecessary/superfluous/never asked for by anyone. That one really is a baffling addition. On the other hand, I really want to make the argument that most of these changes are for the better--that Arachne change in particular is downright elegant--but all my gaming time has been almost 100% Overwatch since it came out.

The datamined new Odin passive was still powerful, but way more reasonable and tbh useful; burst hp and mp heal every ten autoattacks. This is bizarre.

I don't think Guan was a complete buff. 30 stacks is going to be harder to get, and if you use the wrong ability it's pretty much gone. HE also doesn't get any bonus healing on anything other than max stacks. So it makes it a bit of a choice now.

Guan Yu's heal was a problem because of all the CDR he's got in his kit. Heal an ally -2s all cooldowns Dash through an enemy -2s all cooldowns Genji's - take magical damage -2s all cooldowns Spectral - use a relic -3s all cooldowns It doesn't matter that his passive is "harder" to stack, he's got more ways to utilize it now and a new item that lets him overcap CDR even more than he already does. He has more potential now, and I am ashamed to have him diamond edit: I can agree that this might be a nerf to his heal, but the rest of his kit got a buff. coca bojangles fucked around with this message at 14:15 on Jun 30, 2016 |
