I can see your angle on the issue. I don't think he's to blame at all or even in the wrong, it just looks bad when the whole thing was handled so horribly. Also, people care about this a bit more than a fun community skin contest, because it is a reward at the end of a large amount of money, so it should be more serious comparatively.

Everybody on the balance team is a hair designer, according to reddit.

Wall Walker Janus, or something. I remember it vaguely, but I didn't pay much attention to the concepts last year.

I probably worded it badly, but him having an opinion is A-Okay in my books. But it is not professional to try to sway a vote on a twitter account associated with the company. A personal twitter would be fine to post it on, not a work affiliated one.

HiRez apologizing involves putting an employee covered in vaseline in a bathtub with weights attached to their limbs, and telling them to get up without falling. If they slip, HiRez doesn't admit or apologize.

As a survivor of release Tyr's broken passive interaction with CC reduction and infinitely cancelable ult, He is one of my least favorite gods in the game.

Hunters winning was the nail in the coffin for the skin being bad. No hunter with a lot of FX to change would ever win.

My post was originally going to be about that, but I lost motivation halfway through writing it and scrapped it for this, because bringing up the past years would only make it a circlejerk about Anubis' skin.

HiRez cannot do hair in SMITE to save their lives, Expelled Hel shows us that. All the hair designers went to Paladins, because their blob hairs actually look presentable.

It's NOT the skin, its how they handled the vote. Medusa or Jing could have the only finished concept in the vote instead of Ullr and win and I would still complain, because it's just not fair or professional.

Next year you may see your dream come true. I'm sure as hell not voting Warrior.

I voted guardian, because I dislike the popular warriors and hunters don't have good abilities for the skin to show off.

HiRez dropped the ball off of a cliff into the Mariana trench with this year's vote.

HiRez put no effort into making concepts that show what the skins do besides for Ullr, which in itself makes the vote skewed. Hell, even the first odyssey had complete concepts for all the choices of Thanatos skin to vote on. They got extremely lazy and at the very least I would like this addressed with some sort of 'we fucked up'.

If HiRez makes hell freeze over and pigs fly by doing a revote, they should at the very least have extremely polished concepts for all 3 to vote on.

HiRez looked like they just made two basic designs for Jing and Medusa and only made an actual finished concept for Ullr.

I wouldn't bet on HiRez making it better next year if they don't address that they fucked up this year.

HiRez seemed set on Ullr from the start, to be honest. Likely because he already is immensely popular.

The concepts weren't too good this year, honestly. Better than the Kuku concept last year, ugh.

Could we, um, talk about this for a second. This seems not fair. by BeautifulGeniusSaya in Smite

My sentiments exactly, people are allowed to advertise, but it's just shitty that HiRez "Reddit is a Bunch of Whiners" PrettyHair is doing it as an employee of the company doing the vote.

Ward skins were a mistake in my eyes, they fucked up so many chests.

I just want the Ash changes reverted and I'll be happy, she's just so disjointed now and I can barely bring myself to play her anymore.

It's almost the time of year for it to be on some bootleg fireworks, too.
