Hey I've been playing Smite since September 2012 and I am really enjoying the game and it's assets, the only thing is that sometimes the Community outright sucks. But nonetheless there are some pearls to find.
For me I am from Germany 20 years old and studying too. So I'm packed but I still find enough time to play the game.
I play the whole variety of the roles since I didn't find a clan yet where I have a static role, but I am having fun with all of the roles and I feel like I can play all of them too. Mainly I play support, or solo lane tho.
