I like your posts but I really have to ask: do we even play the same game?

People in lobbies I use chronos64 in are usually divided between hate and love.

I play late night PST so, honestly, we probably don't.

I've only seen people say they like it or say nothing about it at all. People seem split on the voice pack, though.

The quality of any given voicepack should be judged only on whether or not the VEW is an exuberant "Yes!" so I can spam VVY and VEW in that order.

By this logic the Zeus voice pack is the best in the game, which is almost accurate (Cupid)

Going by that logic, Artemis is OP when you can melt people with crits and raw damage on full build and level 20. I think HiRez said gods are balanced by pro players and Conquest, so of course it varies wildly in other modes.

I really don't need to see Bellona in my next league match to know she's anti everything, and can tower dive with impunity starting at level 5

Yeah but Derpules at least gets a pass for being a direct shot at the community for complaining about New Herc's tiny head.

What's your IGN name? What happened to that Google Doc list of all Goon Smite players? It was handy (I didn't see it on the op)

Those Bellona nerfs aren't going to do much... MAYBE the lifesteal nerf on the hammer, but even then... that's not a huge whack.

I get the fear she may suffer from Alistar syndrome in League where his kit is just so good the only way to "balance" it is to make him unplayable with the best kit in the game.

EDIT: I should note I'm referring to like S1/S2 Alistar... I have zero clue what happens in League nowadays.

Alistar is good, but not god tier support now. But yeah.. The problem with a front loaded kit is that it's loving front loaded to poo poo! It's the Irelia problem of "Hey let's just put some cool ideas together without really caring about what the kit looks like when it's finished.

Removing the move speed or protections entirely from the passive would help a lot, what they did helps some. The life steal nerf on her 3 helps some.

I think she's still going to be tower diving from 5 on, but these changes are a step in the right direction. I think she needs more significant changes, but I can understand them wanting to change things more gradually.

In other news, Bacchus may be playable in conquest now! :woop:

He's one of the weaker hunters but I think people are overreacting to his nerf. His clear is garbage now but he's still really good at dueling and has the threat of global presence with his ult. If they do more to knock Xbal down than a minor nerf to his base ASPD, and maybe a minor nerf to Art, we'll probably see Apollo come back.

"I came here to argue with you about a freaking television show!"
Ok these nerfs to Bellona are a start but a massive hit to what makes her so broken. Tower diving Bellona with the speed to leave and base back with 10 hp has been the most infuriating thing since original release Nemesis.

Who should I learn for each role? Supporting in low level games is pointless so I've just been calling mid and jamming Ra or Artemis and carrying. Whenever I try to support we just lose because our ADC is.... bad.

I started a smurf to help my friend around without him just getting soul crushed. At that level you can pretty much single-handedly carry the game. I was level 19 and ended up going 20-4-X with Thor.... and I'm not really that great with Thor.
