It's funny - as mediocre as Geb's scaling is, he not only feels stronger as a character but seems to have a much better lategame than in Smite 1. I know this is going to be a loooong comment, but a couple other things. -Aladdin's ult: it not only heals him, but also heals you for a certain amount - plus, it resets his non0ultimate cooldowns and halves yours, and both of you get CDR. The amount of CDR/how much healing Aladdin gets increases with each rank, while yours decreases with every rank. It apparently also has a special interaction specifically for if there are two Aladdins and one of them casts Into the Lamp while the other is still going. It's a half-second to enter/leave the lamp and the interaction does get canceled if you take damage, but it's very quick like you said. It's funny to me that the ultimate ability description in the god view reads rather like a legal document. -I very much agree, that there are a few readability issues with the current UI (stat readouts about every player character included) that can be worked on. It's a beta though, and there's been a huge amount of work put into Smite 2 already so hopefully they'll add all of that within good time. -30:00 Such a great idea. I know that people also like her run-down type kit now too though, but perhaps they could have current Arachne kit as is with a few small changes, and then have her aspect be the wall-running and OG Arachne kit? I know aspects up to this point have only changed a couple features of the kit, but having some gods where aspects not only change how the god plays but changes the entire kit would be cool. Either way, interested to see what they do with some of the gods - as an Anubis main I'm curious to see what they cook up with his aspect, whenever that might come out. Thanks for the video Hat! edit: clarification on what cooldowns are reset.
I do hope they include some older kit ideas with the aspects system *cough* Persephone *cough* there’s so much potential, especially with the gods that haven’t been ported get
Tip for fighting aladdin: you can pre-beads his ult, but only before it hits you. If it hit you, you cannot beads it anymore. Also you can escape it early by pressing space on the lamp that appears in the middle. And you should definitely do that, because he gets protections, like 70 cooldownrate and a ton of hp while in the ult.
Book of Thoth, Transcendence, Poly and Hydras is insane on athena. Your autos benefit from both hydras and poly and the amount of Mana in the build benefitting both trans and thoth is crazy. Slap a deathbringer and the true damage from bumbas on top and you can oneshot squishy gods.
could someone dumb down the intelligence vs strength we have now? i played during smite 2's initial launch then stopped and have been completely out of the loop in terms of how to build
Sure. Strength is physical power from smite 1 and intelligence is magic power. Power is no longer exclusively built on physicals and magical gods. quite a few gods exclusively scale one way still so pay attention to your favorite gods scaling on abilities. Plenty now have hybrid scaling and can build either strength or intelligence or both at the same time. Doesn’t matter the items you build. your god is still either physical or magical and therefore building physical defense against a neith who has Rod of Tahuti is still the play.
Do keep in mind that most items that deal extra damage also deal a fixed type of damage, such as Qin's blade doing physical damage, or polynomicon dealing magical damage, which is worth considering in certain situations like going against a Neith that has poly, soul reaver and Sun gleam bow. So you might want to build a defensive item that gives both prots.

Way smoother than smite one and each god has an ascension pass for more unlocks for that God skins/emotes as you earn worshippers. Also aspects basically make a god play differently making one god into 2
Unfortunately not, Founders pack for Smite 2 is the new god pack. If you don't get it as @ashce10 said you will get a god token for every level up to level 50 you can use to unlock gods. If you do get founders pack, instead you earn diamonds for every level up to level 50 which makes it a huge value. Will also double your legacy gems you get from every gem you have spent in Smite 1.
Man, I love your full gameplay videos, really teaches me a lot about playing duel.
44:56 "I'm not stuck in here with you, you're stuck in here with me!"
A real “I’m not locked in here with you, you’re locked in here with me” moment lol
Aladdin’s ult looks like an absolute nightmare for squishies.
An immovable object vs another immovable object???
Rocky Balboa vs Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson

I'm willing to bet that Geb won.
there's a good chance
You and Sam/Trelli should get some early smite 2 content together. It would be fun to see some high level duels as you guys figure things out
My current favorite Aspect god is Aspect Strength Bacchus, max the 1, build bluestone and just meat smack some gods

You did pretty well against Aladdin for not having defense 😅
YES
Still no set but we getting there
Alladin is magical. He's like ao.

Smite 2? How long did I sleep? And why is this just like smite?

Yah hat Bumbas is busted cuz you can take camps insanely fast
If I link my account do I get all my gods
If you buy the god pack in 2. Otherwise, you get a god token that's valid for old gods (I'm assuming that means S1 gods) every level to 50.
@ wow that’s kinda lame
