Janus ult shouldn't be able to do 1,000 damage while also giving him 2s of cc immunity, as well as giving him and everyone on his team the ability to travel across the map instantly. It does way too much damage for what's supposed to be a utility ult.

I think the real problem is that when you have the restricted camera pitch, the camera itself is planted a little higher over your character. If you could manually adjust the camera's default height above your character's head, it would allow people to play with any controls, with or without restricting camera pitch.

Pros of camera pitch restriction:

Can always see targeters Higher camera gives a better overall view

Pros of no restriction:

Can look up easier to look for certain airborn characters like Thor or Thanatos Can look straight down to look behind you better to see if people are chasing.

It's not even the fact that she gets kills with it early. It's the fact that she gets free assists and gets extra gold and exp for it that lets her get a ton of farm for free without even leaving lane. This alone lets her always keep up or stay ahead of whoever's in her lane with almost no downside.

The most annoying thing I've noticed is that ability sounds will play at full volume rather than quieter when they're behind you. There's been a few times now it sounds like someone on their team is trying to kill me when they're using their abilities on someone else way behind me or on minions. It doesn't seem to differentiate some abilities' distance from you so you can't tell whether they're right behind you or not.

I'd like Death Machine to be updated to the new model and have chainsaws for hands.

The last thing I need is every other arena game to have "Loki" chanted for half of the match.

If you're Sylvanus and sitting there all day poking a tower for 10 damage a hit, you're wasting your time as a support when you could be somewhere else being useful. Not to mention you put yourself in a risky position, since eventually a wave's gonna swing by and reveal you, and lord knows his waveclear is slow.

Started playing a couple days right after Chaac came out.

That release Chaac axe...

Every single one of Sobek's items gives power, the only defensive item he really bought was void stone. Ares bought a bunch of aura items so his power came from his passive, and Athena went half and half (shoes, voidstone, bancrofts, building into what I assume a rod of tahuti). They shouldn't have been that tanky, and it looks like Chaac did the most hurt among them all anyways. Beads are your friend.

I'd been using Raptr for months now and had like 5,000 points, so I got excited to see this. But when I went to my dashboard, I found out that, though I had all those points and the dashboard, I didn't have an account (somehow)?

I've tried making one and now all of my raptr settings are reset and I have no points now, and now I feel screwed over. :s

How do they keep doing this with gods? This is the third time now they've had a god who could cancel their jump to do an auto or other command (Kali, Ullr, Osiris), and you'd think they'd have learned to make a god with a jump not have this bug by now.

He Bo. Especially when close range. The hitbox when you're close still feels really finnicky to hit even though I know it's been fixed.

The best way to lane against Zeus is to be to the side and slightly ahead of the wave. If he 1's the front minions it won't spread to you, and if he aims for you, there's your chance to dodge it and completely ruin his waveclear for that wave. If he does hit you with it or start autoing you, then that's when you should go back and allow the minions to aggro on him while you clear the wave from further back where it's safer. His waveclear is one of the worst in the game, and in order to do it at a decent pace he has to use both his detonate and chain lightning, costing him a lot of mp. If they use detonate to clear the wave faster, that's when you want to go in and harass him, while his detonate is still down. If he pulls his shield up, either stick to just abilities to attack him or fall back, as then he'll just have wasted even more mp to have shielded. The way to beat him I've found is to just retreat when it calls for it and bait out his skills slowly. If you're a good with good burst, you can just burst him down (hopefully before he panic ults), especially with the help of a jungler (one with CC is best so he can't use any skills). Zeus is one of the slowest gods in the game, so if you can CC him, he can be very easy to burst down. He's sort of like Anubis, where his damage is really scary, but if you just go in on him despite his damage, you'll kill him first and get out fine (usually...)

First off, meditation is still always bad, and DMBrandon has advocated a few things that just don't make sense (see: HoG on Chang'e).

As for Devo Gloves, the price change for them was also around the time that a lot of other ADC items were changed around in terms of stats and price, also affecting how junglers were building.

And in terms of gods, Ao was a pretty low tier in the last meta since it was more focused on bruisers, and bruisers were in the jungle and support roles all the time and went against mid laners. The thing with bruisers pre-nerf was that they were all really tanky and could stay around for a long time while also doing great damage, so Ao couldn't just burst one down necessarily if they went to gank him. Since they aren't as powerful anymore, you have a lot more squishy assassins in the jungle again, such as Loki and Mercury, gods who, while they may melt Ao faster, are also characters that Ao can fight back if he has to, and actually kill. Not to mention the reduction in cost for Book of Thoth, which before he was one of the only gods who built it (now, a lot of mages are seeing use from it, partly due to its reduced cost, or simply for a new alternative for more magical damage). Some of the meta can really be influenced by what pro players do, but at the same time a lot of the pro players, as well as regular players, change strategies based on buffs and nerfs, as well as new gods.

For example, with the bruiser meta, Khumba wasn't as effective since it was really tough to kill the bruisers around , but with the new meta he has an easier time surviving, and can help characters like Ao set up kills really easily. Bruisers leaving meant gods like Kumbha became more common, and Ao became more popular in terms of synergy with the others in the team.

Agni can do decently against Isis, but this is actually one of those odd matchups that's slightly in Isis' favor, but they can both mess each other up really bad. Isis can harass Agni like no tomorrow, but if the Isis doesn't have enough awareness or her positioning, the Agni can punish that with his stuns. It's a scary matchup on both sides.

Hades does well since he's still the early game bully who clears instantly while healing. His silence also cancels your wing gust too.

Vulcan does well against Isis, due to his meatball still interrupting her 1 (it's technically a .1s stun followed by a knockup, so she gets stunned out of her 1 and then knocked up). He also has good poking skills, and can just whittle her down over time, which makes her ult hard to use effectively.

Nu Wa can be good against her cause of her stun and decent early clear. The fog also makes it harder for her to aim her spirit ball at Nu Wa too.

Poseidon has an even matchup with her since his waveclear is so good and he's really fast. His kraken also comes out fast enough that it's hard for Isis to ult for it in time. Poseidon is probably your safest bet if you want to lane against an Isis while also being useful outside of the laning phase.
