Smite God
Nike

Nike is immune to CC for a short time while casting Sentinel of Zeus, isn't she? Da Ji caught me with Paolao and the chains broke when I used Sentinel of Zeus. Same for Baron. He couldn't push me for short period while I was casting this skill. If she is, why neither here and neither smite says something about?

I guess Sentinel of Zeus description is wrong. In fact now it is providing a Shield that is: 20/25/30/35/40% of Max Health and a 20% Slow, and both can be increased with Plan of Action in 20%.

I love Nike. Granted, I am not a strong player, but I find her to be fun to play...so I also think it is odd that not many people play her.

Alright.
Is she a bad God or somethjng? No ones playing her.
And when I play her I do amazing.
And she was being banned left and right. I assume that because of her basic attack chain

Everyone is going about Nike the wrong way. The build I have with her seems to work wonders for me which is: warrior tabi jotunns wrath transcendent or bloodforge AsI the health item (looks like a necklace it has 400 health mp(something) hp(something) the passive regenerates health. And the hide that gives cool down 60 physical and magical resistance passive that stuns enemies when health falls low. Thia build works wonders for me. I suggest maxing out ability 1 first then her rend then her 3rd last her ulti

Wrote the following in the official Smite forum, but thought general idea of theory-crafting would be functional here...

Function/Role: Firstly, she's basically just going to be used in Solo...she doesn't bring enough to the table CC-wise to be a Support, and doesn't have enough burst and/or CC to be a high-tier Jungler. Solo fits her quite well anyway...trade blows early, wait for team god and minion kills to boost the passive effect for a strong late-game for the entire team.

Style: To me, she's a blend of Odin (with her leap), Bellona (Disarm and AOE/wide area multi-hit clear) and Guan Yu (protection shredding & having to choose which ability will have additional effects via her Plan of Action). Her attack progression is 1/1/1.5, though it's nice that her first two swings have a wide cone (for wave clear and jungle camps). So she's basically ability-based, with any basic attacking stats as a secondary/minor focus.

However, just read that her Rend is easily stopped by hard CC...which means, in a counter situation against that, you might want to consider a basic attack build, which will help minion wave clear, camp clear, and give you different options to help your team.

Building )Ability-based): So, with not a lot of CC, I see her being built more as a standard ability-based bruiser, with some protections, definitely CDR, and maybe looking to get additional team function out of item passives.

Pen/protection reduction - you might want to consider her protection reduction ability, and shy away from Titan's Bane, as its % pen will be a bit less effective. Not a huge issue, but one to think about. I can see Brawler's Beat Stick being helpful for anti-heal and good flat pen, or perhaps Void Shield for the power/protection/enemy prot reduction. And of course Jotunn's Wrath, but I consider the 10 flat pen to be a minor perk of that item. With no Titan's, obviously focus would be on the more squishy enemies (like it should be anyway).

I can also see other team-based items being good, rather than just pure individual survival (so Pestilence or Heartward Amulett as opposed to Bulwark of Hope, for example).

One last thing to think about, but should only be a minor consideration...the more health she has, the higher her shield when she ults. So items with health are nice to have, but not crazy essential, since enemies that see her in her ult form might just choose not to focus her until it's down...basically it's easy to avoid.

Anyway, some proposed builds...

Defense first: Bluestone Pendant, Warrior Tabi, lane enemy counter-build protection item #1 (physical maybe Breastplate of Valor or Void Shield, magical maybe Genji's Guard, Runic Shield, or even Ancile?), Jotunn's Wrath, 2nd protection item (if you got phys first, consider Pest/Heartward or maybe Hide of the Urchin...something with health), Brawler's Beat Stick, Situational 6th item.

Aggressive start: Bluestone Pendant, Warrior Tabi, Jotunn's Wrath, Urchin or specific phys/mag counter item, etc.

Building (Basic attack-based): If you're facing a Tyr, Erlang or any other number of lane enemies with hard CC, the better bet might be to go basic-attack, and look to get as much out of your first two AOE basic attack swings as possible...and also enhance the damage of physical teammates by getting The Executioner, which will further enhance her protection shred when she uses Rend. In this situation, always use Plan of Action with Rend, and save the leap as an escape or initiation tool only, rather than as another source of damage.

Death's Toll, Ninja Tabi, lane enemy counter-build protection item #1 (physical maybe Witchblade vs another basic attacker, Runic Shield as general aggressive, magical maybe Runic Shield or Bulwark of Hope or Pestilence or Urchin), and then a choice (no specific order) of any of Frostbound Hammer, The Executioner, and any situational counter items.

I think this god is going to be SO much fun to play, but a nightmare to play against.

Idk, like Dm, I think Nike is somewhat balanced atm. While the Slow is ridiculous, think that it's from a ultiumate that does that, damage, and a shield. It's CC Imunnity duration is a ****ing joke, and her kit is somewhat lacking if she uses Plan of Action for the ult...

Expect nerf so in the future with this one.

Okay... I'm just going to throw this out there... That passive is Totally busted.

Edit: Her ult also appears Busted.
