Well, at least Bacchus has some kind of cc immune now with his burp. That's a start... he still needs more work to actually be good. The increase wine gain on his first 2 levels seems so meh to me. But maybe it isn't. It is an increase of 10% on the 1st level which is pretty big. Or maybe I'm over thinking it? No change on mana cost though so maybe its not that great.

This was a huge buff to Bacchus.

I can easily hit smashed with level 1 chug now that only 3 uses fills the meter to 75%, which early game makes a huge difference.
Thanks to Ferrum for making the sig pic! He's beast af people.

I'm just glad they nerfed Bellona. I wanted to do testing for my guide, but I felt like such a **** whenever I chose her because I knew it meant hell for the other team.

I am the most foul, cruel and bad tempered rodent you've ever set eyes upon!.. Oh, her? Yes, well... she's with me.

Feel free to PM me with any questions or comments. I can offer feedback on gameplay and BBcoding tips, as well as moderation help if needed.

She's still a very strong pick in multiple roles, however.

More lies.

"Puts Bacchus in line with other Guardians." Pure BS.

You could say that he's much better compared to where he was before...only that's not really true, considering how that's only one of his many weaknesses addressed - and it wasn't even helped that much.

Here's what Smite players don't get. Stuff like the above isn't "a step in the right direction." It's more like "you move your left foot forward by half an inch while leaning back as much as possible," just like that previous change with Freya's banish. "A step in the right direction" would be doing more than what is essentially a token gesture - how many duo lane gods have knockups, anyway?

^ also. Now he will really be good, when he can counter those picks+the insane burst damage he can do with his ult. Makes him scary early game against picks like those.

Sub - Mana costs for Chug has been reduced earlier and now it gives you more Drunk-O-Meter percentage. So you can have 14% mitigation in the early game. Not bad if you ask me. When I was playing Bacchus the worst thing for me was that so many gods could cancel my Belch just with a knock-up. I must agree- it is still easily canceled by for example Mighty Yawn, but yes, this is a step into the right direction.
Couple that with good damage, knock-up on his 2 that is by far one of the best objective steal abilities except ults, and bacchus becomes pretty strong. Not first pick/first ban but still, pretty strong if you ask me.

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.
