New in SMITE - The Destroyer
New God Release: Shiva, The Destroyer
Passive - Samsara
Shiva cycles between the states of Bliss and Destruction by dealing damage to enemy gods with attacks and abilities. Each state provides benefits to himself and allies or hindrances to enemies. On switching between states Shiva’s non-ultimate ability cooldowns are reduced by 2s.
Emblazoned Sweep
Shiva’s trident is emblazoned with the fire of Agni as he spins it around dealing damage, pulling in enemies and leaving behind a firewall at the edge. Bliss – Allies gain a Movement Speed buff on passing the firewall. Destruction – Enemies suffer a Protection Reduction debuff on passing the firewall.
Damaru's Tempo
Shiva hits the butt of his trident down into the ground, shaking the damaru drum and causing energy to dissipate and damage enemies. Depending on the selection, enemies in the chosen segment are knocked up as well. Bliss – Allies gain an Attack Speed buff if the energy passes through them. Destruction – Enemies suffer an Attack Speed debuff if the energy passes through them.
Pillar of Dawn
Shiva dashes into a pillar of fire where he meditates for a short duration, taking reduced damage and CC Immune, before being able to dash out again. Each dash deals damage to enemies and as he meditates the pillar emits an aura. Bliss – Allies in the aura gain a block stack while Shiva gains up to 3 after leaving. Destruction – Enemies in the aura suffer constant damage.
Shiva Tandava
Shiva performs his Tandava, channeling for the next 6 with CC Immunity and 20% damage mitigation. Every 1.5s he performs a step that can be preselected. Step one – Ally Healing and Mana restore. Step two – 50% Damage and Healing and also amplification of next step radius and effects. Step three – Damage and Shield reduction to Enemies.

New in SMITE - Season 9
SMITE Season 9 is here!
New Game-mode & Map: Slash
[previewyoutube="OwKsOO7FSl0;full"]
SMITE’s first totally NEW and permanent game mode in years is finally launching! Slash takes elements from both the Siege and Clash modes and merges them together into an entirely new mode! The map features traditional tower, phoenix, and Titan objectives and a jungle sized in between those of Siege and Clash. The open center area and 5v5 team sizes from Clash ensure frequent fighting and rotations, and new Juggernaut camps that can be cleared to Spawn your own Juggernaut that push lanes and be teleported too like Siege. Order players will play from the Maya side, featuring an all new art set for this classic pantheon. Chaos players will play from the Egyptian side. We are very excited to introduce this new casual objective focused map in SMITE Season 9!
New Conquest Map
[previewyoutube="kCn3VW7r1G8;full"]
A new Season is upon us and thus the Conquest map must change accordingly. This new map features a series of major changes. This includes a major new gameplay feature that is being introduced – The Obelisks. These create a new objective cycle that overlaps on top of other map objectives. This cycle creates a big shift in the jungle that teams can use to get big advantages, and it also provides a unique reward to the team that fully charges their Obelisk each cycle. And most importantly, you do NOT need to deliver anything to the Obelisks to charge them, just pick up the Offerings anywhere on the map! There are also changes to the environmental art, and plenty of balance changes, get ready for the Dharmic Era Conquest Map!
