SmiteFire Blogs

So I'm finally back playing smite for the first time in for ever and actually having fun with it.

Nice to see that a lot of the ppl from way back is here still.

Will probably stream from time to time and upload some videos of my adventures from silver to where ever I end up before I get tired of Smite again.

But think I will be playing for a while, not as much as before for aure. Got other games to play as well!

Who knows I might even update my old Ne Zha guide or just take it out back and put it out of it's misery..

Also who wants to 1v1?

Cheers
Marki

Hey everyone,

DV-8 and I had been talking about doing this for quite a while, so as a first run, we've done an unscripted video review of the recent 7.6 (Bonus Balance) and 7.7 (Mid-Season) patch notes, along with commentary with our thoughts. We need some practice...or at least I do.

A lot of rambling ensues, and Draisaitl & Stuke99 join as we're reviewing to help us ramble even more and especially talk about the new meta item, Stone of Gaia. (Gulf even makes a very brief showing before leaving like he's got Bumba's Mask) I'm sure Prism is going to be upset about not being included.

Gods it's been forever! I've missed you all! I'm finally back to Smite after far too long away!

My last update was basically about how I had to take a break so I could focus on my mom while she fought Lymphoma. She beat cancer and is doing amazing! My gaming remained elsewhere for a while though, and while I played a match or two here and there I wasn't playing enough to justify writing guides. In all actuality, I tend to write guides when I can't find something I'm looking for.

I just started getting back into Smite again and am addicted once more. Lo and behold, the specific type of guide I was hoping to find doesn't exist. YET. So looks like I have some work to do ❤️ This is gonna be a big one, but I look forward to sharing it with you all. It'll take some time, but here's hoping it helps others as much as I think it'll help me too :)

I missed you guys and I'm so happy to be back!

UPDATE: Whew I knew things had changed but I didn't realize how much! I'll be slower on this pr…

Another guide in the works, another teaser.

Guess which god it's going to be for. Here's the title's reference:

I hadn't played with anyone here for awhile. Off and on Bran has tried to get me to play with him but i'd either be afk or running with an old buddy of mine from when i was in the military. It was fun, although my apologies that i couldn't communicate with any of you at all. I was having to play on my xbox for once. I have gotten more comfortable playing on console but it takes a bit for me to get going after playing on the pc for long periods of time.

The first match I was Sobek and Bran was Achilles. I had a god awful ult to start it and made some pretty bad misses/mistakes and ended up 1/7/14. I'm just glad that no one else but Bran was in to see it. lol.

The second match I was Vulcan, Bran was cupid, Stuke was Sobek and Vini was Guan Yu. We were actually winning for most of the match if i recall correctly but we just slowly lost momentum and the other team go tit. I did alright at 4/2/10 but I missed too many opportunities again. I had some pretty bad ult placements.

Hi all it's been a while.

I thought to give you a small update on how things are going. Let's start with the guide. it's progressing decently, however atm I did hit a "writing block" so the part I am writing now I am kinda stuck on how I want to word it. it's also going to be long as the doc is only on 14 Gdoc pages and I guess it's only 1/6th of the full doc. Also my time did drop a bit cause of work.

So now how have I been enjoying smite? still pretty good and I have fallen in love with the control scheme once again. Also one of my friends joined so no more solo queueing. Now the thing I want to talk about are smite game modes and what I think of them.

Well let's start with Arena:
Honestly my least played mode. my only reason to play it is if there are 15-20 mins left and we (duo queue+) still want to get a game in. For me this mode frequently include the "new" people that after playing for weeks/months still have no to little clue what they are doing. Several regulars can testify…
