[@wolfibear6449]

Would love to win 👹

[@daSoup]

Dude your contribution to the Smite community is damn near unmatched. Thank you for all of the hard work you put in, it doesn't go unrecognized.

[@kimjong85]

ok this is EBic

[@thewhitemonkey64]

Yo thank you for running this wonderful channel. I always miss out on the league but I love the highlights you do a ton.

[@LizardWizard403]

Nice!

[@vietiplatsch2]

No Aegies + Beads was so entertaining to watch. Love to see someone getting properly blown up from time to time lmao

[@MrRomanrin]

i hate seeing (or being the one) BLOWING UP :/ hahaha

[@huckeo2177]

This bug made for some of the most entertaining SPL matches in recent history.

[@howardli9360]

The 2 weeks or so without beads/aegis combo has honestly made the SPL so exciting to watch

[@walternelson9950]

Would love if this was a permanent change it was so wonderful to watch. BigMan getting that max range Vulcan ult on Barra and Ven was just incredible

[@alexquinones8747]

I will never forget, one of those two was full hp, it was a literal one shot

[@cybzer0560]

"A NUCLEAR BOMB DROPPED ON THE MAP"

[@0riginalFIR3]

Make it a permanent change across the whole game…or just get rid of aegis…fuck aegis

[@TheMocutMiester]

That's how it should be. But people almost always have aegis for it (or it misses cause that shit is hard to land max range)

[@LiteGreenish]

The cams after the dragons won of everyone giving Screammmmm crap after almost throwing the game was priceless

[@neho2b]

Love the time and effort you put behind your videos, the breakdowns of competitive smite games are very enjoyable :)

[@BettySmite]

drop me a DM on twitter for a code! @dan__edits

[@witheredwhiterose8815]

All these sets were absolutely wild. Some of the most entertaining Smite in awhile

[@BettySmite]

[@snowbloom5572]

Tyr never fails to turn a great set into an amazing set, always a joy to watch

[@emmisysquire9684]

Watching bolts dominate early and then fumble late just hurts man, reminds me of S6 SSG

[@williamwallace090]

I have watched SPL for 6 years and this is the most entertaining set of games but for individual games there are just better moments for me. Mouse looping behind fire is pure gold and ares ultimate through Janus portal are my top two favourite SPL moments. There have been more hype moments for sure and bigger and better plays but the feeling I got watching those just my personal favourites. These sets without beads aegis mainly make me want to see bigger balance changes. AMC getting the major buff to his ult that catapulted him to a top pick awhile ago was something I was okay with. I'm okay with Hi-Rez picking items or gods or strategies and trying something new that is probably too strong as long as it's different it'll be fun imo. Great games and great video

[@bernardouziel6751]

I honestly hadn't realized how much aegis affects picks and bans until I saw vulcan every single day for weeks

[@matthewroberts5891]

I really think this will just stay as is. It should anyway bc it's so much more exciting to watch and it helps the casters a lot too

[@sydgooding148]

You always have the best ratio of context/explanation to gameplay for your videos

[@LilyFlask]

comment saying anything i want? hmm okay well i feel like i gotta thank you for the tribute to john finch video. when i first heard of his death i was in complete disbelief but once i saw your video it really helped me come to terms with what happened. and seeing older clips of him from before i was that into the spl really put me in that bittersweet mood, terribly sad to see him gone but somewhat glad to know that everything hes done as a personality for smite will live on within the smite community. so, much love for that one betty.

[@soupistasty5]

The Law & Order, 'Dun, Dun!' is too good - as a marker for each new game in this montage series you put together. I love it! 18:11

[@Vanaris.]

don't really need the battle pass since I bought it and I have the nuclear baron skin, but very sweet of you to give to your community

[@TessaTestarossa]

Thanks for the recap, this was undoubtedly the wildest weekend of Smite I've had had the pleasure to watch. Incredible stuff.

[@horsejoke118]

I kinda want them to make it to where you CAN'T buy both!! It's been really fun to watch.

[@CatWithScissors]

Thanks as always Betty, love seeing these. I thought the bug was fun to watch but I’d find it infuriating if beads/aegis were removed like some people were claiming.

[@Z.Salty.M]

i love the part where betty said “its bettying time” and betty’d all over them

[@Hatmaster]

As someone who hasn't had a ton of time to keep up with spl this was an amazing video, thanks!

[@BettySmite]

Thanks king ❤️

[@dylanbrandt6471]

This weekend gave us so much Betty content and I couldn’t be happier! Another great video

[@Puzpoke]

you make some of the best SPL content in the community. I know they take awhile to edit and make but you the goat

[@commanderwheatman6942]

Seeing the pros adapt to this SPICY change its been entertaining to watch

[@sakuraxona]

I hoped Aphrodite and Chang'a wouldve got played since theyre "if beads and aegis" was a person.

[@Rojuul]

Coming up on my 10 year anniversary of playing this game and you are one of the people keeping it fresh :)

[@PlatLoki]

great vid ! thx for telling us about what’s happening and smite and keeping it alive 🎉❤

[@ans-dq9xh]

love ur content , im a french who struggle to find old footages ..... so this channel is gold for me

[@jaxoncrouch9408]

your videos are literally always the best, i try to watch pro league as much as i can but i always miss the best stuff. im so glad i got to see that nuke dropped by bmt thanks a bunch and keep it up.

[@torch0037]

No Beads + Aegis is always an interesting thought and it vastly increases the impact of big ults which I feel is a double edged sword. On one hand it looks super hype, on the other the game balance would need to change a good bit to make it less overbearing. I can go either way personally. P.S. Make more videos Betty! We all want to see them!!!

[@kalvinsapmaz2869]

Game 2 2 players had beads and aegis correct me as I don’t know. Could you bye beads and aegis as long as you didn’t do the glitch what’s going on there idk.

[@ans-dq9xh]

nah it will be only about diving if no beads aegis were here

[@death-by-ego]

Ill be honest. I watched yesterday's set and thought, "Man.. i wish that bug wasnt fixed. This would of been better with it." As far as I concerned, it should become a permanent rule in the pro league. I did laugh a bit when I saw Susano get priority in a no aegis world, because I remember "he isnt designed to 100-0 people"

[@jmanwild87]

I'd honestly be happier if they made this a feature because before this bug if you were a squishy mage or hunter, you just almost always went the both of them. limiting you to one or the other does make for more interesting relic choices

[@XxXChisxXx]

I love how interesting the no beads+aegis games were but in some sets it shows the issues with balance at the pro level.

[@deadersurvival4716]

How do you figure? Effectively, what we saw was just a massive nerf to the "snowball" that most MOBAs are.

[@zaviaaaaa]

this makes me want to hear from the players what felt different in the games not having beads aegis

[@Denis-xl8jx]

I haven't consistently watched SPL, but this season was pretty fun. It was nice to see some not-so-played gods get a chance. Would have loved to see Ra played too

[@bloodyrevenant3841]

We just need to have like one day a week of SPL without beads+aegis combo. I want more insane games like these

[@IBB98]

Every time I play Tyr, he feels terrible. But then you see Deathwalker and Aquarius just do amazing things and I wish I was better at him lol. Great vid as usual Betty.

[@weenyz]

Either all in one video or three separate videos, still love tuning in to new content from you!

[@andrewc.4471]

These games were insane. Thank you sweet prince for the perfectly curated content as always.

[@conorbowen3360]

This probably sounds weird, but you just seem like a very kind and friendly person, and I appreciate that

[@josiahebersole740]

I'd love to see you cover the recent Bolts vs Titans set where *someone* blew a 20k gold lead lol. Keep up the content!

[@Z.Salty.M]

Thank you betty for always making it easy to stay up to date!

[@paincy8645]

love your vids. I agree this is a wake call that beads and aegis are worn out relics

[@natethegnat1659]

Loved the susano/vulcan/Poseidon meta

[@michaelwoodward4686]

holy, that last game was insane. Aquarius played sooooo well.

[@kimjong85]

Supercut while I sit and work all day? LOVE a good distraction hahaha

[@lukaspecson6095]

The absolute mess of a meta that was no beads + aegis allowed was fun to watch for sure But im more excited for the SPL purity run where you are not allowed to buy any relics

[@Voumblevee]

An aegis ban at the start of the season would be nice. Having this happen when teams are trying to qualify for the qualifying tournament is ridiculous.

[@avishabat5167]

I am happy the community has you, you are so good for smite's eSports scene...

[@MrPrestigeOne]

Been loving the videos recently, keep up the great work!

[@colinarban5143]

This was some of the most entertaining smite I've ever watched

[@thederpytable776]

The back and forth from game 1 was insane. Edge of my seat

[@williamw6709]

Love your content. I play smite sporadically, but your videos always remind me "hey, remember that game you love?"

[@Razinik44]

Only Smite creator I've got notifs on for - you're the best!

[@leapedparrot]

PLEASE CONTINUE THIS CONTENT

[@natethegnat1659]

I love your content! Keep it up!

[@thegreenroman8746]

God watching the valks almost throw that insane game that Aqua gave them was so fucking gut wrenching

[@veryfilthycasual390]

Always love to get these notifications, I never keep track of esports but this makes me think i should

[@CornRaked]

Always love a Betty video, keep up the work

[@jeffbezos2960]

I feel like this is actually a good change that makes them not just auto buys for the Midlane and adc it's also way more entertaining to watch

[@axelnick1]

Thanks for your uploads, I love them

[@tylerprime6741]

No beads + aegis was not only so much fun to watch it was so much fun to play. Felt like it allowed for a little more relic creativity

[@boyxgamer]

Man the smite casting group is on another level but I love Dolsons "no yes no yes no yes no" moment so fuckin much

[@Polyester-sylvester]

I love that in the live chat I was like OMG this looks like fun, maybe combining beads and aegis wouldn't be a bad thing just to get immediately made fun of, now a week later everyone like wow it was so entertaining to watch lmfao

[@Pierseus]

you can call it a throw because it was, but you cant deny that bigmantingz still played that titan defense BEAUTIFULLY

[@lukaskolanda6796]

Love your compilations, especially the ones from older sets, keep it up!

[@bbagginsmcswaggins]

End of season 9 smite has been some of the most wild I've ever seen (started watching at s7 worlds). Pretty fuckin' nuts to see

[@Zealous0ne]

Thanks for the content as always man, much appreciated

[@tillhaenni]

That is the most entertaining Smite since... well a long time. i love it

[@L3W15RS]

I couldn’t believe they let this happen for the spl, it was pretty ridiculous they couldn’t resolve it for their pro league.

[@Chysil]

I actually think they should change aegis. Basically same effects except that the max it can prevent is 1000 dmg. If it prevents 1000 dmg and breaks you get a 3 second 35% mitigation buff or something. These massive ults have been too much fun to watch

[@maxdeth2333]

I think Smite team should legitimately consider no beads+aegis as a feature, just from how much positive feedback people are giving to this. At the very least, I've been enjoying it a lot

[@chaoslord301]

Betty is out here watching these games pretending to be Oprah. -YOU NEED A VIDEO -YOU NEED A VIDEO -YOU ALSO NEED A VIDEO

[@BettySmite]

drop me a DM on twitter for a code! @dan__edits

[@UPRUnimeme]

Best smite content on the youtubes, lessgo

[@edgimosanimations3116]

What if they made a game mode of regular conquest BUT no aegis and no aegis? Imagine every game being just absolutely insane and chaotic all the time, endless cc chains, and horrible team comps of absolutely mentally breaking times. It’d be fun tho hella

[@cooperwaters1442]

Love the vids keep up the great content. You really the only reason I know of smites history. I only started playing smite near the end of season 7.

[@Phosty]

Watched all of your vids, love them, S+ tier content not found elsewhere. Have my sub

[@theclimbto1]

It's such an easy fix. We already have Magi's Cloak... so get rid of Beads. Then, get rid of Aegis, and apply it as a Passive to another Item. Like the Automatic Beads on Magi's Cloak. It will proc on what would be Lethal Damage, ignoring all the damage, and will drop all DOTs and Debuffs off. So it's even better, it's Aegis AND a cleanse! The trade off is you don't control actively when it procs... it procs when you would die. Now there is no Beads. There is no Aegis. And NOW we have variety in Relic Choices. Do you go aggressive and Blink+Horrific? Maybe a Shell and Sprint? Maybe a Meditation and Shell, and now the ADC is setting up the Duo Lane Gank providing HP, Mana and Effective HP for the Support and Jungle. Get rid of BOTH, and make the one that isn't already a Passive on an Item... a Passive on an Item. Watch how the game instantly is so much better. And watch how the meta scrambles to find the best combination of Relics for Carries. These items suck because they allow you to play poorly, position poorly, do things you wouldn't do if you didn't know you had the CONTROL of just going Beads and Aegis to get out of it. They promote poor play by merely existing. The main problem with that is the control part. These are still super powerful as Passives on Items, where the trade off is you don't get the control. You wouldn't Aegis if Khepri had ulted you, so now you survive and you STILL have Aegis to go right back in. Now... that passive Procs and you've lost both. Sure, you're still alive due to Khepri Save, but both are on CD now and you have to play smarter. It's much harder to abuse as Passive on Item. And it would be great to see more Relic Combinations in the Game. I mean why have all these cool Relics, if we're never going to use them because the combination of Beads/Aegis is required on Carries?

[@Ryan-bs6kn]

You are the James Alcott of Smite an actual legend.

[@lead_downpour8854]

Lol, almost threw the whole game for a triple double, what an entertainer.

[@austinwehunt2379]

The predecessor meta is about to start.

[@ceandrejefferies5505]

Yeah these past few weeks have been absolutely insane. Pandcat playing Nu wa was hilarious becuase without Aegis you can't block her ult and late game it chunks. I'd be so heated 😂😂

[@nerocladius4319]

14:08 peak casting lmao

[@justinosometimesaugusto]

I was literally just thinking about what would happen with no beads

[@Brux1425]

I have to agree with everyone else it was honestly the most engaging and fun couple weeks i've seen in spl since like season 2.

[@Mattronymic]

So sad this iteration of the dragons didn’t win the chip. They were seemingly so much better than everyone else for a good part of the season leading up to worlds

[@Sam-bb9dd]

I'm commenting for the giveaway :) but regardless of the giveaway, I effing love the content. I'm in my first year of college studying chemistry, and I've been so busy that I actually haven't touched the game in two months. I miss it so much and I cant wait for winter break to hop back on. Thank you for keeping me updated while I'm away :)

[@TheOfficialLackOfSkills]

Variety with the master bait on his supp and jungle lol

[@zeerob9516]

They should keep this in, these matches were absolutely wild

[@guapo1372]

Good video as always, Betty!

[@Musikrs2]

They are just to good on reaction times for those two relics to be used would be exciting to make a week of spl banning relics like a gentlemens side out

[@thercn_]

Susano is so fun to watch was so happy to see

[@markymarc3380]

I love when Trelli looks perma-stoned 😂

[@coreyfritz660]

It was honestly refreshing to see one-shot ults feel threatening in an SPL match, the lack of aegis on carries made these matches super fun to watch.

[@leonvergara9737]

Thanks Betty for holding smite alive

[@bobbyboy4237]

Dang I didn't know about this bug. Thanks for letting people know

[@MonochromeFairy]

Mickey is coming for you, had a mickey add

[@briancorraleshodinka3929]

Betty always providing with good content, oh yeah

[@petargacesa2237]

man the scarabs are so interesting to watch
