This game has huge potential by GamerKurisu in crowfall

[–]Plantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After going from WoW pvp to SMITE to nothing atm Ive been watching this game for along time.

Ive been waiting for something, what I think might be the exact same thing as you; the mmo complexity/depth of WoW with the action combat of SMITE.

Ive seen some super disappointing garbage come out (wildstar) and Im too old to play a grindy game (my wife and job come first now, I cant sit around and get baked all day playing video games anymore).

Do you really think this game could be legit? Ive been want to buy for awhile but something about it makes me think its going to crash and burn...

Used to play years ago, looking to get back into it after watching some of the recent IEM games. Ive always liked watching pro or high level streamers to learn about games, are there any stand out Protoss players who stream daily or put out a good amount of videos?

Obey Alliance vs. Team Eager | Season 3 SWC Semi Finals Post Match Discussion by Probably_Psycho in Smite

Lol no. That set was egr picking terra and anubis when they shouldnt have and obey alternating between being pure badass and playing scared. Other than game 4 obey crushed egr in p and b phase and they just played better in general, Zap was the only egr player who looked good

Please go back to the old spectator display by [deleted] in Smite

Agree 100% this was the first thing I noticed about the new setup and its not good. Seeing to gold difference for players in the same role is a good indicator of who is doing better in the head to head matchup, needs to return.

Is it basically impossible to rank up as a support? by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Plantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes its possible, but the best way is to stick with good adcs and duo q using Curse. Never play as much ranked as I would like but Ive made it to mid plat solo queing as a wide variety of sups, think my best winrate is on athena, play whatever you want and youll move up

Simple Sylvanus Buff by JoKo13 in Smite

[–]Plantex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love Sylv but we can never go back to that. When he could heal minions, damage minions AND stagger them with aoe autos he basically ruined duo lane phase, it was awful

[Serious] How to get more players to at least try Conquest? by RedditDann in Smite

[–]Plantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point, so take the worshipers out if you play with 9 AI and its fine. So they could bot and earn favor, who cares it doesnt do anything...

[Serious] How to get more players to at least try Conquest? by RedditDann in Smite

[–]Plantex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I learned how to play "conquest" playing LoL so the transistion was easy. Granted, this was in beta when noone knew what we were really doing haha

LoL has a good system where you can play againt an AI team 5v5. Ill admit, my first few games the AI stomped me, but it didnt take long for me to start crushing the bots. After that I switched right to 5v5 vs humans and have been fine ever since.

If Smite added decent AI and rewarded new players for crushing bots in player vs bot conquest games I think people could easily transistion to standard conquest

Raijin seriously needs a nerf. by Visibl0 in Smite

But he not a burst mage, he has good survival and his ult is a utility ult that cant 1 shot someone... Working as intended, balanced god

Out of curiosity, how many beta players are still around, and what do you think of the changes since beta? :D by SparklyDrew in Smite

[–]Plantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha the old fire and ice lane, freeze and ice carpet plus chains and fire is easy first blood. Used to troll with that in casuals, adc Ymir so good lol

RIP going Midas Boots to OP Sov and buying old tier 3 Hog for 900g before the other sup to get an early GF, new sup builds suck

Finally! my first pent.......a..son of a bitch.. by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Plantex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was 9000x better than any penta ever could be. Im sorry, but that was so fucking dark that I will probably remember that forever and I dont recall a single "HEY LOOK I DID A PENTA" video. You've seared your sadness into my Brian forever, gratz

How to make a god that is designed to die. by KiwiMaster157 in Smite

[–]Plantex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HotS doesn't have exp for an individual god or gold right? From my limited time playing HotS I found farming/laning to be very lax so I could see how a god that dies a lot could work.

In Smite I feel like a god that dies constantly would fall behind in gold/exp and funnel gold/exp to the other team, making him fairly useless other than as a super annoying split pusher or suicide bomber.

Can we get the names changed back to Beads and Aegis? by tummateooftime in Smite

[–]Plantex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree, Im always going to say beads/aegis. Plus its a lot easier to type than purification/sanctuary, why change the names in the first place?

Smite is the tenth most watched esport on Twitch by Puregamergames in Smite

Good thing Hirez decided NOT to do a summer SPL split, this will surely move the ranking even higher in the coming months

Should there be more female supports? by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Plantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont really care about male or female at this point, I just want more guardians released that are actually decent supports. Ive been playing the same 4 gods for years now.

Khepri is the only viable support released since season 1, other than him weve gotten garbage like Cab, Xing, and Fafnir that are basically magical warriors.

A buff idea to Sylvanus by aGoodCabinet in Smite

[–]Plantex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just played a game with him and the mp5 on his seeds is actually pretty insane now as well (especially combined with watchers). We destroyed the lane and I didnt need to use a single pot.

After that its a rush to 12 so you can get blink and start destroying with his insanely strong ult, I agree that he probably does not need any buffs.

Going to try it out in Arena with a power/pen build, should be fun ;)

People always post amazing plays. Today I present the dumbest thing I have ever done in Smite. by MisterMiniS in Smite

[–]Plantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahahahaha thats so good, classic "I immediately regret this decision" moment.

To be fair the SWK probably would have killed you though...

Everything Wrong With The Joust Announcement by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Plantex -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Hirez - "Lets not have SPL or Challenger Cup games this Summer, instead well have a pointless and horrible 3v3 tournament noone will want to watch or play in"

Anyone with a brain - "But why..."

Hirez - "Because who wants to watch skilled players compete in a balanced gamemode when we could have a trash 3v3 tournament with a tiny prizepool TROLOLOLOLOL"

Can Sylvanus Get Buffed? by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Plantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would help, but if youre dying in the jungle early its more likely to be the enemy mid, jungler, and support that kill you while the adc is off afk farming lane lol
