RIP Guardians being played What-so-ever
RIP Heartseeker meta, welcome back Hastened Fatalis meta.
RIP Anyone buying Wards

I don't know how to feel. Good that they are finally doing something about the current meta, or be sad they essentially just made a huge meta shift and could possible break the game again.

I finally saw the patch notes, and I'm loving Ravana. He seems like a good addition for the warrior class.

I think Bastet would've become a S+/SS Tier for jungle, but with the cat nerf...

She shall stay at A+ tier.

So I was right.

"It touches all!" Touched Heartseeker and nothing else.

So, they cloned LoL's system for their version of Heartseeker and Doom Orb. What the **** else is new?

They have no ****ing clue how game design works.

Riot said it best: "With each item, there are a broad group of champions that can ‘tap into' that item, with some being more effective than others. When that group becomes too broad, you end up trying to either balance the item for both ends of the spectrum (and make it mediocre for everyone), or you narrow it down to a very specific group (and risk tying that group's balance directly to the item)."

Or in other words, with the CC spam in this game, GotM is too good. By weakening it, they just made CC harder to deal with, and made the item that much more ****ty.

Oh, they made HoG single target, just like LoL, and finally implemented a flat damage version, JUST LIKE LOL. They changed the GF to scale, JUST LIKE LOL.

This is just pathetic. They promised to touch "everything," but they revealed that all they know about the game are the stuff that Reddit screams about.

Reddit: Remove heartseeker! FFS!

HiRez: Our keen insight as developers told us that Heartseeker had to go. Since we promised to touch everything, this means that we think that it is just Heartseeker that is the problem, and it clearly is the only problem in the game.

Oh, and wards! Let's nerf them, because when it doubt, remove or weaken counterplay!

Let's not make Sentry Wards cheaper, or have some way of revealing stealth in the game, oh no. Let's just make the game more fun for all the wombo combo assassins and less fun for those being snowballed on.

Edit: Ward revealed for 1 sec before stealthing? JUST LIKE LOL.

Firstly, thank god they fixed Ra-bot, that thing not leveling up has been there for like 2 patches now jebus.

Also lol RIP Eye of Providence, no one will miss you you piece of ****. Wards will still be placed though, if not more than before. They're too valuable to give up even with reduced radii.

Lots of item changes though, I can see Achilles' Spear getting more viability with the jungle camp changes, as well as just seeing less from Hand of the Gods. Hastened Fatalis will become much more popular due to its changes as well as Greater Sprint's. Qin's Sais are now much more viable and Shoes of the Magi will once again become more standardized. Magi's blessing will still be rather standard, but I believe the old pairing of magi's blessing + Greater Sprint will fall prey to Hastened Fatalis + Greater Purification. Heartseeker and Doom Orb look like snowballing items right now, but I feel they may just fall out of the meta entirely due to unreliability.

Overall I'm not sure where this leaves us, the jungle has been changed dramatically, Hunters may begin buying Hastened Fatalis, Greater Sprint will be seen less often (but still often) and we may *finally* not see more than one HoG per team.

As for the cats, c'mon it's not that big a nerf. They're still stupid hard to kill, even more so without hog >_<

Hastened Fatalis will never be used because Hunters have range.

Their range of engagement means that in most situations, mobility won't be too useful. The only thing ADCs care about are escapes or chase tools, and all HF does is let you chase better. If you're playing properly with a coordinated team, the increase in chasing and conditional repositioning doesn't offset the loss of DPS and/or utility.

Besides, it would only work as a last item.

Boots > Lifesteal > Pen > Crits > Crits. Same old boring problem.

They should go to Dawngate's system, where boots didn't exist. MORE FREEDOM ANOTHER ****ING ITEM SLOT FTW

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
