Seriously I thought this patch was gonna be good with the balance changes, at least more Gods who have been problematic for months being buffed or nerfed respectively.

I'm still glad about the balance changes they did do, I just felt they really could've done more.

Well at the very least the Osiris and Nu Wa changes show that they do listen to the community.

For every one time they listen to the community, they do twenty more things nobody asked for and make things worse overall.
Waiting on a good new MOBA, please.

Agreed with Sunfall. It's pretty much a 1 step forward, 2 steps back situation with them.

I'm actually kinda happy about it. Now artemis cant **** me over with an ability that looks like it belongs to a mage.

I'm incredibly pissed they nerfed Nu Wa. There was no need to reduce the scaling from 50% to 30% on her minion explosion. We have someone like Scylla who has 80% scaling on her 2 and does extreme damage but no let's nerf Nu Wa who relies on the damage from her 2-3 combo (which by the way she needs to use two abilities to do almost the same damage as one ability Scylla can throw out that has a very larger radius on the ground).

Check out my Nude Wa guide here!

They nerfed all the wrong things! Nu Wa can still instagib people with multiple detonations, while her actual ult was okay. Artemis was just mediocre at best, and she was nerfed, while Ullr still walks around.

Seriously, DucksRock, if you think Art's poke is bad, what do you think of Ullr's ridiculous ability burst?

Nu Wa could do over 1500 damage with her detonating minions. Yes, it needed a nerf.

I'm glad i'm not the only one feels disappointed on this. Why the heck did they nerfed her physical scaling? It's her only burst to survive most on sticky situations since she has no escape, sure, her Calydonian Boar is a big lifesaving ability but it will die less than 1 second in most teamfights. The nerfed over Suppress The Insolent is fine. But the physical scaling is kind of too much.

I see you point about this, because i fought Ullr with his support Sun Wukong... Sun Wukong's The Magic Cudgel poke is too much, it took down 10% of my health, and then Ullr uses his Bladed Arrow and then the arros that comes from the sky to finish me off. It's kinda unfair because on early game, i have nothing to do with this even my support Ymir is working hard to protect me.

And now that they nerfed Artemis, i can imagine how she might be useless most of the other ADCs out there, especially Xbalanque which can be aggressive most of the time for Artemis.

FINAL THOUGHTS: Maybe increase her physical scaling at least from 40% to 45% instead of 50%.

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.
