Main:

Supports: , ,
Mids: ,, ,
Solos (aside from ): , , , , ,
Junglers: , , ,
ADCs: , ,

However, take this with a grain of salt since I play all the gods relatively evenly (except for my top 5, which are the first listed in each role).

Preferred roles are as ordered: Solo, Mid, Support, Jungle, ADC
However as it says in my signature, this is only a mild preference. I'm willing to play anything.

Lol actually it's for a variety of reasons.
1) You're reliant on having a good support, and playing solo queue in casuals most of the time, having a good support is not as common an occurrence as I'd like. (This is partially why I play so much solo).
2) You're strongest late game, but stereotypical casual games will never allow you to reach that point since teams surrender quite often.
3) You're heavily reliant on autos and skillshots, which is normally not a problem. However, since I don't have access to an ethernet cable, I've gone through periods of time where I've had enough lag for smite to be playable, but still enough to be missing these very precise shots. I'd say roughly 1/3rd of the time I've been playing has been with this lag, and playing ADC is by far the worst out of all the roles when you have to deal with it.
4) Playstyle. I played a lot more ADC in S1 when the mana buff was still there. I really learned how to utilize it to its full advantage and outpush my opponents most of the time giving me the upper hand. However, I haven't played ADC as much in S2 and this was partially due to the very different playstyle that came with the purple buff. I'd still say I'm not as confident with S2's ADC meta as S1's.
5) ADC is popular. It's commonly one of the first roles called in casuals, and is one of the more common favorites overall. Since it was never my favorite role, I'd usually rather let someone else play ADC that likes it more.
6) ADC building is boring since it's almost always the same. As someone who's clearly a fan of item building, playing ADC feels very restrictive.

HOWEVER, as I said before that doesn't mean I dislike ADC. If I'm forced into playing it I won't be unhappy, it's just that given a choice I would choose the other roles before it.

I know, I'm just so bad at smite. Every time I play my team lets me know with such lovely comments as "get gud scrub" and "lern 2 play n00b", but it never helps. *proceeds to miss with 's ultimate*

I just got out of a game with an odin that was on drugs. He kept running into their fountain and when he died he called them all hackers and threatened to report them.

So don't worry, Zilby, sometimes I miss 's ult.
