from what I understand of the stream this is going to change:

Conquest map changes:
- No outside jungle
- 4 jungle buffs per side (health & shield removed)
- 2 neutral jungle camps per side (no buffs)
- reduced line of sight in the lanes (obstacles in corners, allows more ganking)
Comment: Allow more players to be active in map, allows more roaming, reduced dedicated jungler. Changed towards more traditional MOBA map, keeping action more in game and less outside fighting.
Health & Shield removed to make less lane control

God ability changes:
- New [FOCUS] attribute added ( Like CC Reduction )
- Focus has a range of 0 to 100
- Focus will scale the utility of an ability
Examples:
- - - Strength of buffs and heals
- - - Strength of debuff like speed and protection
- - - Durations like stun or fear
- Focus does NOT impact damage directly
- Most gods will now start with lower utility by default
Comment: Leads to more role diversity, help fighting against CC, tanks weaker if focus used more, abilities are NOT affected by focus only spells!

Match of the Day:
Every day smite has a new fun mode to play!
Examples:
- - - All cupid vs cupid on arena map
- - - Magic users vs Tanks on joust map
- - - Melee gods only on conquest map
Players must own the gods that are in the match of the day mode to play it!
Comment: Fun modes, like Arachnophobia(All 10 players are Arachne on Arena) Every day is a new mode with new settings and it include first win of the day bonus!!

God changes:
Some gods have been nerfed/buffed!
- Most significant changes:
- - - Cupid back to physical!
- - - Freya has additional lifesteal at start, one spells gives lifesteal the other magical lifesteal.
- - - Bacchus has reduced damage but gets a little bit more tanky.
- - - Thor's rift no longer deals damage but still stuns.

Anhur:
Passive - Enemy physical pwer reduced by 10%, increasing with focus up to 20%
Shifting Sands:
- Slow enemies up to 10%, increasing with focus up to 20%
- Increase Anhur's Basic damage by up to 10%, increasing with focus up to 20%
Impale:
- Gods are stunned for 1s when impaled, increasing with focus up to 2s
Disperse:
- Enemies are knocked back less, increasing with focus.
Comment: Basically you need to get focus to get more stuns and slows and such on your spells from now on, FOR ALL GODS!

Item changes:
All items in the game have been changed and re-balanced
- All items are much more specific to their categories
- - - Physical, Magic, Defense, Aura ( Items are focus more on their thing)
- - - Starter items have been changed and cost 750 gold (NO tier 3, small items for starter)
Example of changes:
- Qins blades (rank 3):
- - - 25% addition attack speed
- - - No health
- - - 15+ Physical pwer
- - - No chance on hit to deal damage instead it's on ALL hits and deal 2.5% of enemy max health + Armor pen works.
Comment: 10 new items added, items are not giving stats that are not in their category, physical will give physical and not health and so on...

Other changes:
- Base movement speed changes.
- New art set, new home & god screens.
- Less matching time.
- Deserter 30min penalty minimum
- Match making more fair and allows 4, 5 man teams.

Sorry, but can I have a link to these patch notes. I'm not questioning the legitimacy of the notes, I would just like to have them so I can post the link in the Editor's Forums. (We basically have a thread in the forums where we post the patch notes to help us update them)

-,- I remember spending a good 30 minutes updating all of Cupid's new ability information on the database. I'm kinda frustrated now that I have to revert back to what it was before T.T

I'm a little surprised to see the Cupid rollback. I'm not a cupid player but... what happened? The change to magical didn't work?

I see, it's a shame they didn't give it a little more time to see if people got used to it.
