Alrighty, another patch, another post.

Official patch notes here: https://www.smitegame.com/new-in-smite-divine-light-4-12-patch-notes/

Not all that much going on here. I'm personally not playing the Trials RPG Wannabe, so just going to go into the rest.

Firstly...holy Beamy Chibi. OMG. I can't WAIT to hear people spamming his ****. I'm partially excited and partially horrified.
Athena passive power scaling...whoopty. Couldn't be any less exciting. Whatever. She can use it, sure.
Artemis base health / leveling buff...okay, she's super squishy and no escape, so that's at least a bit helpful. Just an FYI though...that's a total of 60 extra health at level 20.
Art's other buff (oops, missed that, thanks Bernardo) is her poke, partial wave-clear assistance ability Suppress The Insolent. 20 mana cost reduction across the board. This is actually nice. She needs it early game to help her otherwise horrid wave-clear...doesn't increase her early game damage, which is good since she's very specifically a late-game god, but it does help her stay in-lane longer at least with mana consumption in mind.
Kumbhakarna Mighty Yawn mana cost reduction. 20 mana less across the board. That's okay, but damn if I still hate playing against him. WAAAAY too much CC in his kit.
He Bo somewhat quality of life (vision) adjustment. Another whatever. Didn't change actual mechanics.
Tyr Power Cleave mana cost reduction as it's leveled. Since I think it's the first ability to be maxed (due to health sustain function), that's somewhat functional...but if we're talking Conquest in Solo, he's also usually going to get the mana buff, right? So...helpful, but of somewhat questionable impact.

From everything we see (not regarding newer gods), it seems that, in many ways, the game and gods are more balanced than ever, overall. We see some meta shifts here and there, but the things that people shift away from still seem to be effective. A lot of it is just current trending influence and the fickle nature of the masses. Of course, I'm only really talking about Conquest. Other modes can still be somewhat broken.

Have we every played against each other, Bran? I love spaming that yawn, especially when I've been downed and my team comes over to kill my would-be attackers.

The global cd is cut in half?!?!
Not like his burst was fast enough already...

Quoted:

The time from when Water Cannon is cast to when He Bo can cast another Ability has been cut in half

I actually think that can a pretty big impact.
Water hands -> fountain -> bracer -> water hands -> aaahhhaa in like 2 seconds.
Or just water hands - bracers -> water hands in 1 second.

And the tyr buff, plz no I dont want more tyr players in my games :(
