Pay attention to two things, both at the 8:00 minute mark.

1: Watch as Geb (Squiddish) shields Ra, and the shield is nearly as big as Ra's MAX health.

2: Watch Geb be focused by Ra, another Geb, and Anubis, and not die for ****ing ever thanks to the shield.

14:37: Anubis eats a cupid ult and autoattacks and kills both Bacchus and Cupid literally without taking any health damage.

Geb, ruiner of hopes and dreams.

It definitely is too powerful for this game. I love the idea of the ability itself and even how powerful it is, but it definitely doesn't belong in this kind of game in its current state.

I was in an Assault match yesterday, and my friend ended up as Geb. We completely demolished the other team, considering we also had a Hel. My friend saved all of us so many times with that shield. Saved our Hel when she was almost dead to the point of being able to heal up herself and everyone else around. Used it on our Bacchus so that he tower dived and we ran in after to take out the enemies. Also used it on me as Anubis so that I could use my ult or 1 stationary without receiving too much damage.

It's a great skill, and I love the idea of it, but it definitely needs working on. I mean, Geb using his shield on himself + his passive is like trying to break a rock with a plastic spoon.

Geb needs a nerf. I, myself, like Geb, but that's the truth. But I'm pretty sure HiRez will only nerf it for a little.

7:12: Shield blocks a fully charged Ymir ult.

Broken. Just broken. Acts like a free Aegis Amulet, rank 3, for all it does.

It really is overpowered. I have seen people take no damage from ults by characters like Anubis, because of it. Also let us not forget the CC cleanse. It will get someone out of Ymir's freeze and block a whole Ao Kuang ult so whatever character it is gets away.

i honestly think the shield is the only problem with his kit because it takes so much skill and coordination to not be ****bloked by the damage reduction. Am I the only one?

The shield's values are high, and it scales very oddly as well. 0/100/200/300/400? I mean, it scales so hard, that by the time it's maxed, it easily makes up around 1 third of any squishies' health.

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.
