It's not about third person, although that did help drag me in originally, it's because the gameplay is much faster paced. Same with HotS.
Dota 2 is a little slow in the beginning but gets more and more intense as the game progresses. and the teamfights can be quite fun, provided nobody snowballed.
Every time I try LoL it just feels, I don't know, slow and boring compared to other MOBAs. Everyone just towerhugs until someone stumbles over and the other team snowballs and wins.
Your bae ain't got nothing on my bae. I was never any good with Than. Normally held even on k/d. Loki is perfect for little hit and runs, which is more my style. If you can time it right, you can chain together kills rather easily.
***** , a Zeus and Odin ult-combo in an arena can kick peoples teeth in. Also just generally that combo in team fights. Don't know if that combo is still viable. I stopped playing Smite a while ago.
My first pentakill back in the days was Zeus. It was out of pure luck, and a dumbass opponent team, that got caught in my ult in the jungle. Thank you Rod of Tahuti
I once had a Zeus on Zeus battle, where we both had a miniscule amount of HP, and three charges.
I like to think that he had a microsecond left on his cooldown, before Thor swooped in and kicked his **** . It wasn't a KS btw. I was playing with one of my friends, and I had used my 3 recently, so I was kinda doomed unless he secured the kill.
Like pretty much every ult in the game. Especially every single damn mage. A Nemesis can **** you up. A Vulcan can **** up your whole team from across the lane. A Janus can do it from across the map.
**sarcasticone used "*roll picture*"** **sarcasticone rolled image**I hate facing janus with nox, mobility game too real. too true, she can be a walking tank if you get the right actives and time her abilities right
Which is why I mostly play pure damage mages. Or used to. For some reason the launcher's been ****** for months and won't let me play.
Still, you don't need mobility when you can kill anything before it gets to you. Just pick Scylla or Goobis, farm like a ************ and build so much damage you're not even a glass cannon anymore. You're a glass orbital death ray.
Scylla is the first mage I really liked to play.
The fact that you can casually walk into a teamfight and ult people again and again, dealing killing blows that break the 1000 damage barrier.
Still haven't had anything higher than a triple with anyone yet, which is surprising considering I could reliably hit my ult and played a decent Scylla.
Also, you won't believe me, but a couple of months before the 2014 Odyssey, I actually suggested a Red Riding Hood skin for her on the god & skin concepts forum.
Yeah, she's the one who carried me to level 30, because of what an amazing scrub stomper she is. Only god to date which I've gotten up to mastery X. I prefer Anubis and Vulcan now, though. They're a bit more fun, because Goobis has no escapes, so you have to think a lot more about positioning and a proper Vulcan ult can make half the enemy team and some people on your team ragequit. It's great. He's the one I got my first quadra and the "Deal more than 1500 damage with a single ability" achievement. Would have been a penta if they didn't have a Kabrakan.
My only diamond is Cupid. I'm only mastery VI with Scylla at the moment, because a friend of mine used to main Hades so 90% of the time I was playing Cupid to combo his ult.
When I'm not playing Cupid though, my go-to gods tend to be Zhong Qui, Hel, and Scylla.
Just avoid her 1 at all costs when in a 1on1. It heals just about as much as it damages, so it's practically a 500 hp swing in her favor, not counting scaling.
Her 3 is dangerous enough with the amount it heals and deals; don't let her do both in 1 ability.
Swell with 5.5k worshipers and owning all her skins. seriously, I can't play enough of her. Child's Play skin was the sole reason I ever spent money on this game
no one picks her in ranked and I still **** on every poseidon I go up against. Ive gotten a triple kill with my ult and stole gold fury at the same time.
Lol, no way. I love the lock down my nox gives. I'd rather have complete control of an opponent than pure damage as nox. besides nox hits like a truck if you get her combo off.
Yeah, I usually go for damage, because I get matched with idiots and have to compensate for their underleveled asses in a teamfight. Which sucks, because I'm small, squishy and the enemy assassin is likely going to try and murder me horribly. I spend half the time just dodging all the **** being thrown at me.
Oh I feels bad for you. I play with my friends or people I feel comfortable playing online with, it's a given I can focus on my role. I play solo q by myself also, so I understand you lol. Which is why I buy wards, oh my lord the ward usage is too real. I hate playing with randoms. Apolo is the most retardedly op carry I've ever seen. Jesus , but tbf it's been a few months since I've played smite but the memories are there.
than is great for lane sustain. his 1 is a massive heal and his passive gives you even more heals on top of that. while loki is great for getting picks on low/squish heros, than is amazing for taking down even the tankiest of characters. while his 1 takes off 10% of current(max? i cant remember) health ontop of the 380 straight damage, and isnt too hard to hit with enough practice.
his 2 is probably the best thing in his arsenal though. up to 30% movement speed (60% if someone is below insta threshhold) and an assload of penetration. not to mention his basic is AOE on the third swing.
then again i have a huge hatred against loki because i play a lot of assault.
He was the first god I ever played with, in the game.
I can understand your hate for him, because of assault. So freaking easy to get to the back lines, and cause havoc, especially when you know what you are doing.
While not exactly a stealthy assassin, ne zha is probably my all time favourite.
with one of the highest DPS's available for a physical character, a ranged stun/pull and an amazing 2, hes definitely my top 5.
He is good, but you realllyyy have to know what you are doing with him. He is one of those characters that is the MVP or the ********* of the match (Most of the time it's the latter). He isn't my favorite.
He is definitely one of the most annoying gods to play against with loki. Soaks up damage, and has so many ways for him to wiggle out of ambushes. I normally try to avoid him, when I can.
let give you a tip then
his transformations have a really bad turning radius if he is chasing you with tiger or bull make sharp turns and hes very likely to miss you
I think the newest god was Scylla when I started playing, so it's not like I'm new or anything.
I main hunters and mages. By all rights, I should have at least a quadra.
true, to be honest though, most people who get them either get them in assault, arena, or that new game mode. Getting anything higher than a triple in conquest is pretty difficult.
Yeah, I guess. You're not gonna get ganked by more than 3 at a time in lane, and if you do you won't live.
The only time in conquest when you'll see the whole team is in a teamfight or an objective contesting.
I play arena and assault a lot, but I've not even touched clash yet since everyone I know said it was beyond trash.
I thought that at first too, but clash isn't terrible. If you're playing by yourself, then it kinda sucks, but at least they did that instead of the 3 way hunter thing.
