+Marcus Peters you realize these are not actual players, as fafnir isnt out yet, these are creators playing showing how he works, so the can do whatever they want
+DarkGaming15 I know maybe they can bring Sigurd in the game as a god and say they are just sworn enemies, but I think a Mayan or Hindu god is needed asap we have enough Norse gods at this point.

Ao Kuang would win. Fafnir is super vulnerable when he comes out of dragon form. He can't move for like 1-2 seconds, enough time for Ao to blow him up.
He is overpowered. I went full magical power in a private match with him and he 1-2 hits people, he does 300+ dmg a tick with his poison with full magic, he could honestly just be a mage if he wanted. Inb4 people say it's impossible that I played him, there's Public Test Servers (PTS) where you can play patches before they come out.
7:42 almost half health > tanks ymir's fully charged ult + full duration of kukulkan's tornado and survives... wonder how much protections his passive give or what items he had at that point but that seems kinda crazy to me
He really isn't. He has low damage compared to other guardians and his only cc is his clear. Unlike Kumba or Ymir who both have an ability to clear and cc.
couldn't agree more. Also Kumbha deals a total of 1200 damage with his whole kit late game with full tank items on VERY low CD. Try it! If fafnir gets nerfed. So should all the retarded Meta Tanks right now *cough cough*athena*cough(
are you kidding me? is this a joke? he has two forms of CC disarm and stun - his disarm is suprisingly hard to hit and his stun is a skillshot that rewards you with one of the smallest stuns in the game - he has cooldowns that and literally a quarter of a minute and he does fairly average damage. Fafnir needs a buff - or other gods need a nerf
I can already see the nerfs, like they always do on Guardians: -Reduce the effects of the 2 -Increased cool downs on everything -Reduce the effect of cool downs -Decrease damage on everything Can't wait for him to become a useless as Xian Tian, or he will be nerfed on every update like Khepri. You know, it's not like there are gods like Loki and Scylla that can one shot most gods. No, let's just keep merging the class that barely has a gods in it, and can't do anything unless they have a team mate. It's not like we have gods that one shot like Loki or Scylla. Oh, wait......
First off. they have buffed Xian and he's ok now. Two: Kherpi is STILL top support after all the nerfs. Third: Loki is useless aside from casual pumbstomps and Scylla only works well if there's a team to set her up during the lane phase
Xing is cool again. I have no idea how people can still say Khepri is good. His early game is just awful now. I used to main him in S2, but when all the nerfs came around in S3, I just couldn't.
+Epic-Fran! I understand where you are coming from, but as someone who mains support, it's vey irritating to constantly have torero ink strategies and build because Guardians get nerfed into the ground, or are constantly changed. It gets ridiculous after a while.
Before you read this, I just want you to know that I am not a FNAF fan. But people like you keep calling 12-year olds autistic is just sad to me. Autism is a real problem in the real world, and it shouldn't be taken lightly. Please try to use other words. Thank you.
+Inconspicuous Username He has: a wave clearing stun, a buff that gives damage/as/healing, and a crippling gap closer plus the ulti which is just ridculous. I think you can call that broken. Hes supposed to be a guardian but he looks like a solo laner to me
Elias Max his clear is extremely bad in Solo lane. his heal is very minimal, and since you often see better healers int he solo lane, they can just stand by the melee minions, absorb the hammer and then he'll struggle against archers
Metalks I mean, it's meant to be a buff in the form of an ultimate. If that was his regular form, he'd be pretty big for a regular god and the damage on everything would have to be reduced.
+Jorge R (YoosRNaym) Lol, well obviously it's a buff and not just a stance switch. But my point is that I want to play as a dragon. Not a noodle like Kukulkan, or a single ult like Ao Kuang, but a full classic dragon. Could have done something akin to fenrir instead where the character is already a beast and becomes even more beastly as an ult. After all, if he can go back and forth between dwarf and dragon, why shouldn't characters like Scylla? But I guess it's well known they go pretty fast and loose with the lore.
As a sole Guardian player, it's good to see a character where I can effectively play better. With his stuns, buffs and nice damage, it's everything I could want. I don't normally buy characters when they come out because they are always 11,000 Favor but this will be an exception.
Horus the Embodiment of Pharaoh's. A important god in the Egyptian Mythos, Pharaoh's or the kings of egypt would assacioate themselves with Horus, son of Isis and Osiris. Many forms Horus takes but is mainly represented by a hawk or falcon, I would love to see this guy in smite, especially because of how many different ways he could look and how his kit would be would be interesting, he could be any class, mage, hunter, assasin, warrior, not so much a guardian. But I wish this god could he in the game considering it's been a while since a egyptian god came out, and I could really like to see him as a assasin or warrior. it would be cool
After playing him for a while, I find his heal is kind of weak. I think a way to balance it would be to make the self heal stronger if he casts it on himself, so there's a benefit to doing so when allies who may make better use of the attack speed buff.
it wasn't cursed gold, it was a ring that produced more gold that was cursed when it was taken away by Loki, also, he was killed, by the legendary hero Sigurd. Sometimes i just wonder if hi-rez really has a fear of Edda.
ahh so this is where smaug from the hobbit comes from lol tolkien is a pure genius man he must've really like the norse mythology and took fafnir as an inspiration for smaug
Is there a reason why you'd want to cancel your ult early? Increased mana costs when in ult or something? Or maybe your cooldowns reset again so you do dwarf rotation, dragon rotation, then back to dwarf for big burst combo? I don't see any benefit beyond that.
"there is no creature more greedy than a dwarf"
woah Lore Lady, that's racist
Dragon: hold my beer
Dragon dwarf : hold my beer
*Insert Cinemasins Ding Here*
Hold my dwarf
Dragon: bruh
I think the Guardians being so rare is what makes them always so special.
now i aint sayin he a gold digger...
What what!
But he ain't messing with some feeding nigga.
But he ain't messing with no æsir
Daaaaamn loki.
Back at it again with the tricks
Stop
ForsenCD
I love this being recommended to me in 2020, he’s only been out for 4 damn years at this point!
how do you think I feel
@@soup2504how do you think I feel
6:05 i know ne zha looks like a girl but that is most definetly jing wei
x'D poor Ne zha
did you peeped out how fast she respawned tho ?
I noticed that too. Ne Zha never grew wings as far as I know.
lolz it is jing wei
+Marcus Peters you realize these are not actual players, as fafnir isnt out yet, these are creators playing showing how he works, so the can do whatever they want
This has got to be the coolest ultimate in the game
It's kind of a let down, TBH...
+Tomoko Kuroki Wait, what?
+Tomoko Kuroki u can go to ur otome world
so many dragon gods
The combat tactics on this was amazing and perfectly explained I love it.
So a combination of Smaug and Thorin. Awesome ^^
so does that mean he dies in the first 5 mins of game 3
Smaug and Thorin were both actually based off Fafnir.
+Apex Konchu skillx
Smaug and Thorin are based ON Fafnir.
And Scrooge McDuck.
the part of the lore that isn't mentioned is that Fafnir is eventually killed by Sigurd and his mighty blade gram.
I was thinking about that too, except how would we be playing a dead dragon in game :P. They changed it so he wasnt dead
+DarkGaming15 I know maybe they can bring Sigurd in the game as a god and say they are just sworn enemies, but I think a Mayan or Hindu god is needed asap we have enough Norse gods at this point.
+DarkGaming15 bakasura is dead but we can play him
+TheDeadwwe Ravana is dead too if I remember correctly.
Osiris? isnt he dead?
I see potential for a Wario skin. XD
YES!!!!!
mario skin when he ult he become wario
Mario skin for vamana hahahahahaha that would be awesome.
No when he ult he become Yoshi or Bowser.
Because we all know Nintendo will love that.
i can see him being a super annoying support
If by "annoying" you mean "overpowered", yes - I can see that as well.
Played the PTS, he's underperforming .
Right? That leap! What is that?!
Well I'll a support I think he is well made
that is what we call "OP as balls"
maybe his ultmate can kill the gold fury ironically
e era se assim fosse seria broken xD
That's... not ironic.
+Ricardo Martins q?
it will be his passive greedy to get more gold kill the dragon not the ultmate :D
New favorite God, I love dragons
me too, old ao (kukul -.-) and new ao X, and now is time for the new main dragon :p
if only ao ult can move like thana.. fly like a real dragon !
Dragons are my favorite too....I don't think I can wait until they lower the price on him. Might buy him with my gems.
i have all the dragones másters X (Ao kuang kukulkan nuwa) i want This diamond too
try shyvana from lol .heuheuehuehe
He is Guardian hmmmm.
So I should play jung, solo and mid with him...
that's is precisely why we,support mains, hate other roles mains with a passion
xing tian cam solo
+Seraph Sephiroth can
He is EXACTLY my kind of god. This is the first god release I'm genuinely anticipating.
Still like him?
@@born-environment-0002HURRY BEFORE THEY TAKE OUR RICHES! THESE ALLIES MAY SEEM WORTHLESS BUT THEY WILL HELP BRING US GLORY!! I DON'T LIKE SURPRISES! WATCH OUT FOR THIEVES! EVERYONE YIELDS TO MY POWER!!!! NO NO I NEED MORE!!!!
This makes me so excited for future God releases if they already start doing stuff like this 10/10 Hi-Res
dragon motd?
ao kuang v fafnir instalock?
no cooldown on ults?
wait no cooldown at all? wouldnt Ao just juggle spam you to death? lol
steel16880 who cares two dragon god are fighting SPAM ALL THE ULTS
+MoonMoonFang and kuky
um yea no lol. wouldnt be fair if they had no cooldown on the ults dude lol
Ao Kuang would win. Fafnir is super vulnerable when he comes out of dragon form. He can't move for like 1-2 seconds, enough time for Ao to blow him up.
That ultimate looks like it lasts a shockingly long time. I'm curious to see the actual numbers for it and his passive.
Fafnir also has a thing for online games and trying to sell magical curses during conventions.
Looks ridiculously overpowered.
Wait till he actually comes out and all his abilities do like 30 damage
All the bots their attacking have no items, Which means they die really fast, not actually going to deal that much damage in game
Double nope.
He's actually pretty balanced.
He is overpowered. I went full magical power in a private match with him and he 1-2 hits people, he does 300+ dmg a tick with his poison with full magic, he could honestly just be a mage if he wanted.
Inb4 people say it's impossible that I played him, there's Public Test Servers (PTS) where you can play patches before they come out.
He looks like Smaug from The Hobbit.
Of course, the series was inspired from Norse Mythology.
Best. Mythology. Ever.
I may be 4 years late but nah Greek is where its at 😂
Can we have a Greek warrior please
Soon
who would it be though?
+Dilim Odinkaluu Achilles would be a cool warrior
or u know mayan wouldn't be bad either
+jesus perez Hera hopefully
7:42 almost half health > tanks ymir's fully charged ult + full duration of kukulkan's tornado and survives... wonder how much protections his passive give or what items he had at that point but that seems kinda crazy to me
Gib me gems, I'm greedier than Fapnir :^)
Found duke
taylor bolan Crap my cover is blown
A little german came out (gib) ;)
FlyingAlpaca Nah, that's just a meme'd version of "give". Google "gib me".
: ^ )
fafnir was one of bosses from old game called Spellforce, that game was made over 10years ago dem memories rip
Hi-Rez: "Give me an OP God" *makes Susano* "another one" *makes Fafnir*
i was kind of hoping Nidhogg would make it in first. But still, glad we finally have a more proper dragon themed character.
Is the God reveal lady Colleen Clinkenbeard? I've always wondered
they call her lorelady cuz it's easier and yes, yes it is her
He seems ridiculously OP...like, even more than normal new gods lately.
He really isn't. He has low damage compared to other guardians and his only cc is his clear. Unlike Kumba or Ymir who both have an ability to clear and cc.
fafnir the lord of glittering wetdreams
I was very happy to voice this Lord of Glittering Gold for you :-)
I didn't know they would release Smaug.
its Fafnir.. not smaug. you arent funny
Next god is gonna be a hobbit for sure! Kappa
+Dagan damn dude calm the butthurt Smaug was influenced by fafnir
This story of Fafnir is the origins Smug And in the story of Beowulf
This is the best tank!
I believe we might see a bank robber skin for this guy.
skin idea: Fafnir as a welsh rugby player and he transforms into the red dragon
This guy is a warrior. His damage output and his defense.
Vamana's ult feels so useless now.
How so? Vamana gets huge damage reduction, Fafnir only gets extra effects on his attacks not damage reduction.
atleast vamana gain heal and stuff .. stats boost rather than fafnir skill boost
Also Fafnir can also be silenced, stunned, etc, while in Dragon form
Siranoid i guess u cant understand simple english.. he meant to get the enemy fack off.. cuz vamana ult + fatalis + regen = attack on titan
Siranoid i guess u cant understand simple english.. he meant to get the enemy fack off.. cuz vamana ult + fatalis + regen = attack on titan
Swagni dashes past Fafnir and says "give me my money" lmao
When's the release date???
+Joshua Otaku time?
I cannot wait to play this god. It makes it even better that final fantasy XII got announced today as well I've never been more excited for a god
Another guardian perfect for the jungle
0:42 So Fafnir AND Nu Wa both have all of the infinity gems? What is this madness?!
It's kind of ironic that Fafnir is a guardian
Fafnir does guard his treasure trove
The greedy dwarf/ dragon that lives alone from thought of theifs is a support... well played.
oh does this remind me of the hobbit
Smaug was actually based on the original Norse lore of Fafnir, if I recall.
CarusioMystWolf that's actually kinda cool XD, makes you wanna know more about norse mythology
pennekamper1 XD
if THAT makes you want to know more about Norse mythology how about the fact that Loki gave birth to a horse
Android 19 ...loki is male right...?
“There is no creature more greedy than a dwarf”
Clearly she never met a zeus player
Whats that supposed to mean ._.
I swear if Fafnir gets a nerf, then Ymir and Area should get one too; they can dish out just as much damage.
ares and ymir don't be a debuff ROFL
Lol...area
I'm just saying. Both Ymir and Ares deal large amounts of damage for Guardians.
Well they A is literally right beside the S on the keyboard... not hard to hit the wrong key when typing fast, don't be a dickbag.
couldn't agree more.
Also Kumbha deals a total of 1200 damage with his whole kit late game with full tank items on VERY low CD. Try it!
If fafnir gets nerfed. So should all the retarded Meta Tanks right now *cough cough*athena*cough(
u guys did an amazing job on this god, Beautiful design!!
Fafnir is a Guardian
Find out more in the Next Episode of Dragon ball Z :D
I love how indepth you get with the actual build and layout advice. Thank you! Is this build linked anywhere so I can have it at a glance?
That passive will get reworked. Calling it now
Yeah, way too OP. We get little gold per second for a reason.
+fireryash yeah, also the protections with how much gold you have just feels so weird and useless until late game imo, that's just me though.
Imagine during MOTD where we get 100k. He'll always have max protection.
and you were wrong
He looks like a good god. Lots of things that will work for him and others on his team.
He's going to get nerfed so hard
agreed😂
He is balanced , in the video he does damage to gods without items
Nah. He actually seems to be one of the more balanced releases they've had.
Try playing him.
are you kidding me? is this a joke? he has two forms of CC disarm and stun - his disarm is suprisingly hard to hit and his stun is a skillshot that rewards you with one of the smallest stuns in the game - he has cooldowns that and literally a quarter of a minute and he does fairly average damage. Fafnir needs a buff - or other gods need a nerf
+Scary Spider yeah now that I've played him he needs a buff
yall are brilliant with this game love it #1 fan bro
Relase new fafnir skin pls
So if they have fafnir are they gonna add torhu or kanna
Most likely Locoa would be next.
Surprised their are so few dragon maid references.
Thank God that no happened
just waiting here for african gods
that would nice
Oh. oh dear. This... this is really embarrassing for you... I guess no one's told you. Egypt is in Africa.
+Juicy I mean sub Sahara
+BrokeAss Gaming you mean gods like : Yemaya, Oshun, Olorun, and Shango.
No
Since Fafnir is in the game. I suppose somewhere down the line they might introduce Sigurd.
I can already see the nerfs, like they always do on Guardians:
-Reduce the effects of the 2
-Increased cool downs on everything
-Reduce the effect of cool downs
-Decrease damage on everything
Can't wait for him to become a useless as Xian Tian, or he will be nerfed on every update like Khepri. You know, it's not like there are gods like Loki and Scylla that can one shot most gods. No, let's just keep merging the class that barely has a gods in it, and can't do anything unless they have a team mate. It's not like we have gods that one shot like Loki or Scylla. Oh, wait......
First off. they have buffed Xian and he's ok now.
Two: Kherpi is STILL top support after all the nerfs.
Third: Loki is useless aside from casual pumbstomps and Scylla only works well if there's a team to set her up during the lane phase
Scylla can do well in the laning phase with soul stone + red pot
Xing is cool again. I have no idea how people can still say Khepri is good. His early game is just awful now. I used to main him in S2, but when all the nerfs came around in S3, I just couldn't.
i doubt it. he is actually pretty balance
+Epic-Fran! I understand where you are coming from, but as someone who mains support, it's vey irritating to constantly have torero ink strategies and build because Guardians get nerfed into the ground, or are constantly changed. It gets ridiculous after a while.
The ending was weird twist. The dragon seemed at peace but all of a sudden the Fire Nation attacked and he gets super powerful and pissed
is this real? or not ... this is so broken
>Broken
>can tell this just by watching a video
Surely you jest?
He's actually not broken like you'd think people everyone playing on the PTS server say he's just
alright.
i think you should watch it again becuse he is broken ....just to remind you he is guardin and he dose that much damage
Those are against bots with no items, his damage isn't very good
this isnt broken at all
Faf's control is gonna be insane when built right. I might play Guardian now.
I've already got leaked info on his first skin:
FNAF-nir - Lord of Autism
yes
That actually sounds really cool
Before you read this, I just want you to know that I am not a FNAF fan. But people like you keep calling 12-year olds autistic is just sad to me. Autism is a real problem in the real world, and it shouldn't be taken lightly. Please try to use other words. Thank you.

as someone that now has a love for guardians....I'm excited for him.
WHY DAFUQ DOES TH-cam RECOMMEND ME THIS I DONT WATCH SMITE EVEN I DONT EVEN PLAY IT
Same here xDD
LOL SAME
Maybe because you watch others gameplays? That does it for me, but im happy, the recommendation made me play this game haha

start playing smite then
thanks for making this character, looks sweet!
Hirez pls nerf
6:07 This wasnt Ne Zha this was Jing Wei
Bah... dwarf looks boring... dragon looks cool. Would rather just play as that.
You don't really understand how this works or how he's played, do you?
+Jorge R (YoosRNaym) Well. There *is* the above video. And from what I read, I don't want to deal with a duration of 20/40 seconds.
Metalks I mean, it's meant to be a buff in the form of an ultimate. If that was his regular form, he'd be pretty big for a regular god and the damage on everything would have to be reduced.
well to bad. thats the whole point of his kit and even more so his ult
+Jorge R (YoosRNaym) Lol, well obviously it's a buff and not just a stance switch. But my point is that I want to play as a dragon. Not a noodle like Kukulkan, or a single ult like Ao Kuang, but a full classic dragon.

"Glittering gold" looks more like... sand and mud. =.=
The Devs said they were still working on the gold to make it more "Glittering"
They said that but it's a pile of mud in game right now. GG hi rez.
i dont get it
As a player who uses kukulkan as his main have a dragon dwarf seems like a good second
Horus the Embodiment of Pharaoh's. A important god in the Egyptian Mythos, Pharaoh's or the kings of egypt would assacioate themselves with Horus, son of Isis and Osiris. Many forms Horus takes but is mainly represented by a hawk or falcon, I would love to see this guy in smite, especially because of how many different ways he could look and how his kit would be would be interesting, he could be any class, mage, hunter, assasin, warrior, not so much a guardian.

Thorin transforms into Smaug? Hell yes, i'm maining this dude til the end of time :D
Only a few hours away from release! Cant wait to play him tonight! Looks very fun, probs my new #1 Support now! Good job Hi-Rez Team! :)
Oh he's Glittering alright.
Does Fafnir's dragon form fit in Janus' portal? Because if not I would have a problem.
Yo, they better add a Godzilla skin for this dude. Like, what an opportunity! Who wouldn't wanna see a Godzilla run in from the jungle to support you?
Sobek Kaiju skin?
So does the extra damage on coerce proc item effects (soul reaver, devine ruin, etc)?
If you ult and auto with fatalis do you still get the movement speed penalty? Because that sounds op
The pun though , " the dragons attacks are scaling with magical power"
that is some badass lore over there
After playing him for a while, I find his heal is kind of weak. I think a way to balance it would be to make the self heal stronger if he casts it on himself, so there's a benefit to doing so when allies who may make better use of the attack speed buff.
As a league player this god feels kinda like Shyvana, but with a different kit, so if he kinda plays like Shyvana, he should be really fun to play
it wasn't cursed gold, it was a ring that produced more gold that was cursed when it was taken away by Loki, also, he was killed, by the legendary hero Sigurd. Sometimes i just wonder if hi-rez really has a fear of Edda.
He's finally here !
ahh so this is where smaug from the hobbit comes from lol
tolkien is a pure genius man he must've really like the norse mythology and took fafnir as an inspiration for smaug
So when fafnir ults, he jumps into the sky. Does this count as a knockup and give awilix's ult the the extra grab, or is he completely invunerable?
i think this god will be the motivation i need to come back and play smite again.
Only Fafnir breaks the mold.
Is there a reason why you'd want to cancel your ult early? Increased mana costs when in ult or something? Or maybe your cooldowns reset again so you do dwarf rotation, dragon rotation, then back to dwarf for big burst combo? I don't see any benefit beyond that.
Besides Ares, this god actually sparked my interest. Can't wait to actually try him out.
Forget being a guardian he's going directly to solo with that kit.
Powerful carrys such as Kali, damn cyclonespin style
