Sorry for not responding to this thread sooner, I was busy. If you don't mind I'm just going to reopen the Osiris discussion quite briefly.

He has no quick six-creep clear, his poke is somewhat short-range ( Sickle Strike, obviously Spirit Flail is effective poke, but it's generally used for clear), and once someone dashes out of the tether, only someone with amazing reflexes would be able to Lord of the Afterlife and still land the stun.

Mages can buy Sprint at the start of the game.

Tyr DEFINITELY doesn't lose all kill potential if the enemy buys Greater Purification - far from it. He does lose if the enemy gets Magi's Blessing.

I must admit, I like the build, and Frostbound Hammer is good right now, but I see him as a counter to hunters without dashes and a small number of assassins/warriors. B tier is balanced tier, not niche tier, and Osiris is not currently balanced.

Trivia: Osiris is the least played god in Conquest. Even Nox is seeing more play in casuals. He's also 8th least played in League.

I was comparing Tyr to Osiris when you said that Osiris loses all kill potential if someone gets sprint, he doesn't.

Osiris is considered a lane bully. He can simultaneously poke and clear with Spirit Flail, it's wide enough. The AoE autos help with inital clear. Apollo doesn't have the best clear but he is one of the most popular solos atm.

Maybe he isn't great right now, but in this meta when everyone is playing hunters in the solo lane, Osiris will be doing better. I can guess the next tier list that is done on the juice website will have Osiris going up on the list. Due to his recent play in the SPL by Divios, CycloneSpin, and enQu, I feel he's going to see a lot more play in the near future.

Moving Janus to S

Just the thread's moderator breaking the rules and posting a one-liner, carry on

Also, Greenevers: As a moderator, do you have the ability to approve this as official?

EDIT: SMITEFire Official, not OFFICIAL official. :/

The thread? No, no one can make people suddenly think this is the official tier list.

Only reputation does that. MOBAfire enjoys being the semi-official tier list, but this one probably won't as long as 80% of the votes aren't in platinum yet.

Ok, this might have just been the all knock-up comp or Qvofred's sheer skill, but after watching Trig vs Nox Game 2, I think Awilix is a warranted A or A-. Feather Step is so good.

A-. Awilix under-performs a lot of gods in the current meta

Also, why isn't Eset in S also ? She is da beast in mid.

Eset has no strong escapes and can be countered heavily by certain counterpicks, she's not as versatile as S ranked gods should be.
