So Bellona hammer for SWC 2017 trophy?

 

[RedSparrows]

I see Bellona is still carrying all her teams.

Not much as changed since I stopped playing.

Hah, she's not quite so broken.

I, however, refuse to play her. I hated her so much when she was imba that I just cannot abide playing as her now

 

[Indignate]

She is literally the second funnest character in the game doe.

Neith being the first

 

[Disxo]

Athena being the first

FTFY

 

[ThirtyFour]

We all know it's Mercury.

 

[Indignate]

You guys can stop, it's old Nu Wa.

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

She is literally the second funnest character in the game doe.

She's got one of the most boring movesets in the game.

 

[Disxo]

She's got one of the most boring movesets in the game.

Nothing beats Ra's lazors, so boring mainly because its an easy god.

 

[XenoRaven]

OK, fuck balance changes, fuck maps, I want to know what's happening with server stability and punishing quitters. Three days in a row I have had multiple matches with people leaving. This is ruining the game for me. I can't go one day without people quitting.

We just dropped our new cinematic on YT, called 'To Hell & Back': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mVYnfJS73U

That was a pretty cool trailer, though I would've liked it more if it was "To Hel & Back" and depicted Bellona's struggle to get past enemy team members to kill the squishy mage (i.e. Hel).

 

[patchday]

Didnt know PC version supported a controller out of the box. Feels really good to play a MOBA with one. Still going through training missions. seems like fun.

 

[drotahorror]

Just freakin rekt in the motd with my boy Zeus.

Some info about the upcoming Season 3 changes:

A little bit on Amaterasu: http://team-dignitas.net/articles/blogs/Smite/8678/amaterasu-the-sun-goddess-smite-gets-kawaii

And some on the new Joust map: http://team-dignitas.net/articles/blogs/Smite/8680/major-joust-changes-in-smite

Also ranked 3v3 is coming.

Edit: Video on Amaterasu: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaTU1806vWI

That Sobek skin is nice.

Raijin and Skadi confirmed to be coming down the line: http://i.imgur.com/WhDYUWr.jpg

 

[drotahorror]

Consider me hype.

Maybe a few of us can get together and do some ranked 3v3.

I should rejoin the gaf smite clan (I left to join back up with a buddy who returned). Who can I contact again?

It was Rygar but I seem to recall it switching to XT Vengeance for some reason.

 

[Disxo]

Isurus looking good with that team,
No Ot for the swc?

 

[Disxo]

Omg Amateratsuuuu

 

[CommandThrower]

That Sobek skin is nice.

Wow, good golly. Is that Street Shark Sobek? Or...Ninja Turtles Mutagen Sobek?

Either way, I like it very much.


It's also nice to see Amaterasu starting the Japanese Pantheon. Now that it's here, I must have Bishamonten.

 

[ThirtyFour]

Either way, I like it very much.

It's Japanese themed so it's called Kaiju Sobek.

 

[ThirtyFour]

Missed this earlier but Amaterasu's skill are shown here: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2016/01/07/amaterasu-new-smite-character/

Her ult is old Guan Yu's apparently.

 

[Spiritreaver]

New Joust map looks incredible. I might actually play that mode now with the changes. Every pantheon is represented by a map now right?

...when you include Domination (RIP)

Amaterasu's design is pretty damn good. I'm really glad they went for both a female and less sexualized character for the first Japanese god. She looks great so far.

 

[dejan]

Man, Epsilon came out to play.

Two codes (both expired, so don't ask) have been given away during the first match, so it might be a good idea to keep Smite running in the background (if you are watching the SWC).

 

[dejan]

Speaking of which:

Code: HANDBALL for a SWC Chest

 

[CeeSaw]

Speaking of which:

Code: HANDBALL for a SWC Chest

Got 1 Gem haha.

 

[More Fun To Compute]

Seems like you redeem codes shown on stream to get chests that give things like boosters. Maybe with some nicer or less nice drops.

And the Chinese team have a Chronos mid with talon trinket. Yep, this seems like a normal pro smite game.

 

[ThirtyFour]

There's a list with what people have got from the SWC chests so far here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/3zwdxb/whats_in_swc_giveway_chests_thread/

 

[drotahorror]

Really hope I get a Derpules or Prizefighter.

There's only been 1 code per game right?

 

[XenoRaven]

I'm liking what I'm reading about the Joust changes. I'm still anticipating campers trying to steal there mini boss to troll people, but at least people will be forced to fight now.

 

[XenoRaven]

Did they make Derpules because fans criticized their inability to make an appropriately sized head for Herc?

Oops DP my bad

 

[Red Arremer]

Did they make Derpules because fans criticized their inability to make an appropriately sized head for Herc?

Yes.

 

[drotahorror]

Pretty much yeah.


When did they do the code "redcarpet"? I must have missed it. The first code I did was the first phoenix down in first game, and then the next one in the OMG game.

 

[Disxo]

Epsilon vs pain gaming is looking good.
Type PONPON5 btw

 

[drotahorror]

PONPON1
PONPON2
PONPON3
PONPON4
PONPON5

all of them work 5 chests.

Where did this code come from again? I had to afk a minute.

 

[Red Arremer]

Only got Favour and a booster lol. Also man those codes expire super fast. ponpon5 expired before I could put it in. Handball before I could launch up smite.

 

[XenoRaven]

Where can I go to see the full bracket + game times and stuff?

Where can I go to see the full bracket + game times and stuff?

https://swc.smitegame.com/#schedule

Wish someone would answer me.
I wonder if I'm just missing them on the stream or if some of these codes are popping up somewhere else. Like that PONPON one I never seen that pop up on stream at all.

The PonPon one came from twitter I think.

PonPon5 came from here: https://twitter.com/HirezChris

 

[Red Arremer]

I'm getting the codes from NeoGAF.

Spoiler

I have no idea where they are given out

 

[XenoRaven]

How do people feel about an SWC 2016 OT in Gaming?

 

[Red Arremer]

If you think there's enough interest to warrant a new thread, go for it.

[Disxo]
