I love Assault. Now don't get me wrong. I now have some appreciation for every game mode.
- Arena: quick gameplay, sure it's unbalanced, but sometimes interesting comps work. It's also quick and a good warmup.
- Clash: it's sort of like an elongated Arena. Sure it's got 2 (really close) lanes and some objectives, but it's still mostly a teamfight.
- Joust: even though I suck at it, being in a 3-man is like an intimate version of a 5-man queue. Great for when you can't get a full team together.
- Siege: now that I understand the mode better, I'm down for it, at least when queuing a full group. I can build like I would for Conquest, with starting items and stacking items, and it's like always being in the Duo lane, with a sometimes weird comp. I like the warping option...convenient.
- Conquest: Even if we only have 3 or 4, queuing for this means that me and my teammates are the bulk of the team, minimizing toxicity to some degree. Now that I'm a bit more comfortable with some roles besides Support, it also helps a lot. Probably the least comfortable with Solo...I have to find a good god or two that works for me.
Funny enough, the gods I used to like most are the ones I now like least in the mode.


I also cringe when I roll




I'm a bit uncomfortable with the ADC role in Conquest (I prefer deferring the need to carry to people like Ducks or Bullfrog or Zilby or whomever), but oh man, in Assault, give me

I also like a lot of Assassins, and am learning to be patient with them (that's really key). I'm also cool with Mages, especially



And so what if we roll a horrible comp, and 4 of us reroll and STILL have an unbalanced team (#*)&#(^%!...this happens quite often). The game's going to be short, and there's little toxicity in comparison.
So thank you, Assault, for always being there when my friends aren't. You keep things interesting.
... it's just the 5 physical teams (in which case rerolling never changes character class) that can make Assault unplayable at times.
But when it's Assault, and I roll a Mage or Hunter or whatever, I feel I can be more selfish in keeping it, unless my god is the weakest of the mode and a reroll might improve our composition. So I definitely play a wider variety of gods in this mode than any other.
Last night was a good night...
Since I saw this post 2 days late, when I clicked on the link, I just saw you had a 5 losses streak during your last night.
If those are your good nights ...
And looking at that info now, I built full tank and did almost as much damage as skadi, thor and Thanatos...and we had 4 physical... And they hadn't wanted to reroll... And i didn't because I was only warrior/guard.
Look at the details of any of the other losses and you can often figure out these things too. A bit frustrating but oh well.
And I'm happy usually because I generally feel that I did well even in a loss. So yeah, bad streak, but you know what, still another pretty good night overall.
At least that Thor was building Urchin after Titan's Bane, but it was too late obviously.
Also, any reason why you don't complete your

I think the Tier 3 is well worth its gold.
As for completing
Check out my Hel Match. Same night, before the losing streak. We almost lost this one. The guy I queued with was tilting early and at one point pretty much said "wait, do you think we can win this one? Should I start trying?" To which I pretty much said, "dude, you should always try." He was pissed because the
In any case, 50k healing, lol. 25k damage. I died the least (actually the only one with positive K/D), had more kills than ***bha/Kali/Isis, and still had Kali asking me NOT to fight, just because I was the healer. Dude...if I don't fight, we don't win, and you don't get as many heals because I'm too far away.
This Guan killed me...the one on MY team. I should have requested a switch. We also had 4 phys (lopsided yet again). It was fun playing
When I have a
I would probably have told you to stay back and play safe too, like
So, basically, you played with my gf apparently ?
When someone doesn't want to trade with her a god she has rank X, she is pissed and she will tilt even before the game started.

One thing I was practicing that match was attack cancelling...hit hit 2, hit hit 3, hit hit etc. I want to practice that stuff more...and Estidien's guide makes me really want to play
Time for you to jump on SMITE and play some Assault with me =) (NO MORE ARENA LOL)

Since we want her to benefit more from her fast attacks (even if they are at 50%,
Also, if you were to use abilties, you should use your 3 (
Yeah I should probably come back to SMITE someday, but I was waiting for the
Anyway, it would only be on Friday or Saturday, not my fault if you decided to live on the other side of the world lol.
Either way, at least I know if I think about it, I can implement it...I usually don't bother too much thinking about that stuff.
Also, "other side of the world," people, is from Eastern Canada to Western US. All y'all other people in other countries don't count. Mwahahahaha.
And Bull, you don't have to use nice words like "strange." You can just say "you idiot." We're buds and it won't hurt my feelings...much.
He said "and I thought your Freya was scary" or something to that effect, and asked to friend and queue together. I never say no, and so he just kept throwing us into match after match. Was fun.
