Can we applaud this Janus for being on top of plays what a good mid for a change

[@caziiah]

^ back to back solid mids, its so rare nowadays

[@fear804]

Something I would love to see at the beginning of the vids is some visual or something of what the completed build is/would be. There are definitely some game that I would like to see the last item or two just because. Love the vids, been watching for years!

[@MaouVallkur]

But then it would spoil if they F6 🤷‍♂️

[@jofferybezos292]

If you need to watch a video on how to build characters in smite you shouldn't play ranked.

[@HauntingGround4ever]

@@jofferybezos292 They didn't say they play ranked and, in any case, looking for someone more expert than you on what you should be building makes you intelligent, humble and actually willing to win games, instead of rushing forward, head down, like a mad horse, like some people that play ranked and think they're pro or something. Some people really need to acknowledge their place and lower their hybris, man.

[@TexasKing100]

i think lance feels unbelievably broken in solo due to his high base damage. you can literlly have only glad shield, be top damage, and never die, especially if u abuse the shield on the 3 and level that 2nd

[@Gundam-Fury]

9:49 4/0/4 Death not found!! Been waitin for it to happen

[@KommonCents_]

There's a bug with Lance and Nox. If she goes into Lance and he gets on his horse, Nox will stay inside Lance till he dismounts. Can literally go afk in a horse for 5min and get carried across the map lol

[@Happythings354]

Yea, many more bugs.. they just need to delete this god from the game. So boring, so not fun, so not smite.

[@MinimumOverdrive1]

That is not a bug. His horse is considered a channeled ability and she can stay in channeled abilities indefinitely. She can sit in a lot of gods who have channeled ults for long times.

[@axel9473]

@@Happythings354 The god is a lot of fun, just overtuned as most new gods tend to be.

[@KommonCents_]

@@MinimumOverdrive1 I agree but nothing is like this. And horse is a normal ability and if he sat in game in horse for an hour, she would be inside him for an hour. I call it a bug because that's basically her being immune while being transported across map. Nasty jungle ganking combo lol.

[@iainchurchill]

There is no couterplay, when you're cc immune in your 3 and hit like a truck

[@Junieisgay]

"No counterplay" He gets dismounted by stuns or losing the health shield. Just hit him with a single mage ability late game and he will be dismounted 90% of the time.

[@justinostrem1521]

@@Junieisgay I get what you're saying, but with the only hard cc that works being stuns, it makes counter play more difficult than it should be imo. Him being able to just ride through hun batz ult, erlang ult/Athena taunt, or something like ares/da ji ult is just dumb

[@lil_blue2984]

@@justinostrem1521 I won't lie, after playing a decent amount I think the 3 feels pretty bad. It stops being too great outside of just travel especially against super bursty or dot dmg. The cc immunity imo is fine otherwise he would never get to use it. It's hard enough to get to use in combat. Otherwise he's busted for sure

[@Happythings354]

@@Junieisgay how come ymirs freeze doenst do anything? Or neith ult? No dmg no stun no dismount, nothing. Stupid god, they shouldve never made smite look like final fantasy

I think Lancelot has been so fun. I think they should lower some of his scaling but his kit is just so fun to play with

[@arniepage1662]

His scaling needs to be like 40% lower than what is it now in all abilities

[@itspBeezy]

He's mad fun for sure but yo the cc immune horse has gotta go... Watched him get ulted by ares and just keep riding

[@dmgzsniper]

@@itspBeezy you mean his ult? at litterly 6:40 you watched the horse get frozen and make sense for his ult to be cc immune most ults like his ie. Danza, jing Wai, Merc high mobility ults tend to be cc immune

thank you for some much needed nostalgia mast! been watching you since years and your videos never fail to entertain and remind me of the good old days playing smite with my friends

I love your videos man I just sit down with a cup of coffee in the morning and chill and watch you murk the other team also great commentary I love your jungler gameplay especially mercury and now lancelot :)) keep it coming!!

[@Konakuza]

That Janus was slapping with some great portals

[@brreakfastYT]

Dang, I thought this was gonna be the match I was in with you. I played like garbage cuz I got stuck with solo (Mast stole jungle from me) but having Mast carry me was pretty surreal tbh.

[@brewstin]

Day 17 of telling Mast that I adore his videos and they brighten my day. I love Lancelot. I play him, I go "this god is dumb as hell lol". I see someone else play him, I go "this god is dumb as hell lol". I lay awake at night unable to sleep while thinking about him, and my mind is full of "this god is dumb as hell lol". Been a while since I felt this way about a god release-... oh wait no, Shiva release existed. Nevermind.

[@daphnegrass9579]

Damn, I fucking loved both teams. That Janus, Hades, Jorm.

[@swiftfire8513]

Since the update I haven't really been able to play much because the lag is so bad for me atm for some random reason. It's worse than I've ever seen, but at least I can watch you play Lancelot and learn how to play him for the future

[@sebastianpusch3885]

Same for me. Never had really bad issues but after this patch it's just a lag fest. Tried to play smite night but had to stop because it was just not possible.

[@zachdaikawa4872]

Bumbas gives some ridiculous cooldown too with that, I did a bumbas build in solo and it was quite amazing.

[@bl1nski]

@27:00 the words you're looking for are diminishing returns

[@SuperRandom22]

Because of all the content creators I 100% thought Lancelot was a warrior, but now knowing he is an assassin and hearing Mast say he feels better in the Jungle, my mind just sat here thinking like "well duh, that is what he was made for." I don't understand why everyone thought the assassin was meant to be played as a warrior, if that was true they would have just made him a warrior. I mean sure they made mistakes in the past with Hades and Ravana, but their kits were also just not meant for their roles, but his is very jungle like. He has movement buffs and dashes. Everyone also said hes just Achilles 2, but hes actually more like Awilix since he has his mount, which can be thrown (like her two abilities), a high damage mobility skill (like her feather step), and an ult that basically gives him a mini buff of being able to use mount abilities twice in a row and automatically getting full shield.

[@user-on6xs4qc9r]

Honestly didn’t think you’d make this one a vid just cuz it was such a stomp. But I’m the AMC. Love the content.

[@BlankName88]

I played a match in arena as baron. Me, a daji, and atlas were on a lancelot. He survived my and daji's ult, killed atlas then got away. Overtuned af.

[@riyadhussain2027]

Love the vids man, ever considered an A-Z?

[@thedeathleaper2009]

The word/ phrase you were looking for in part 2 is “diminishing returns”

[@brianyang1643]

He runs kind of like a hybrid of Susano and awilix. Very fun character to play and great content as always Mast sensei

[@cafpow2282]

the Ult + 3 ... the thing is, that you can use an ability to dismount afterwards. so if you ult, it automatically 3s (kinda) after the ult, which kinda makes sense. (i mean you still can cancel and dismount after ulting and then, the 3 shouldn't be on CD i guess?) i kinda get what they where trying to do but it seems kinda funky to me, i don't know. just see it that way: the ult automatically casts a 3 after it's finished it's charge. (cause you're on the horse). And that kinda makes sense.

[@gavinkanlong4244]

hey mast what changed in ur mind from this video to the last lancelot vid where you max the 2 instead of the 3 first?

[@Candygrid]

Been having people instant DC before game starts. Don't know if it's the server issue but it did happen 3 times in a row

[@wolfy2082]

26:59, It's still exponential just that its a downward kind of exponential

[@thomasjones7927]

It's called "Diminishing Returns."

[@HauntingGround4ever]

To think that some people have THE NERV to say he's not op at the moment. I haven't had a single game with him in it where he didn't perform extremely well. With his mobility it's as hard to hit as a Vulcan but he sticks to you instead of running away like the latter. His dmg numbers are crazy no matter how you build him and his horse makes him tank so much dmg. He's objectively op. I'm not surprised because he's the new god and everything (Yu Huang is the excpetion that confirms the rule in this case) but a few nerfs are needed asap.

[@L3jin]

12:00 the explanation alone, annoyed me. Smh Hi Rez.... also, the hell happened to Lancelot at 14:45???? Lmao

[@Legitzimo.]

diminishing returns was the word looking for in game 2

[@xbeast1997x]

People just don't know how to clear red or buffs wit hades in general. Treat it like you're securing an objective, get it low til it starts its attack THEN blow it tf up. Don't blow it up to get it into the dangerous stage then sit slowly wittling that shit down while it QUICKLY wittles you down lol

[@sterile_coffeegc3801]

Servers have been painful on occasion aswell

[@Dante-mw2ez]

My best match with Lancelot was in arena where I had 89-90k damage, and about 28 kills

[@TheGreatDanish]

He definitely felt kinda awkward on my first go with him, but once you get used to him, he's really fucking good. But, like you said, its just because of his buck wild numbies. A few number nerfs and he'll be in a good place, probably.

[@Radiance_Buer]

Already bringing down the nerfs thank god I'm tired of seeing him on all my games lol

[@insolidusyt]

As a casual in NA servers playing from Japan, the servers are definitely worse this patch. Pings are higher and frame drops are more frequent.

[@gunnarbond8417]

[@pixelbomb97]

"What's the opposite of exponential? Like it gets worse as you get more of it?" Dude, you're talking about diminishing returns, y'know the thing you are always complaining about.

[@quinnedmondson3717]

The opposite of an exponential curve is a logarithmic curve, sort of like how diminishing return works altho I don't think that is a true log curve in smite

[@zackghost_1]

Lancelot def needs to be nerf but I feel like it’s gonna make his late game really bad because I was playing freya which literally can’t run from Lancelot but late game I didn’t need to cause I would dumpster his ass and the entire game I was just making sure I wasn’t anywhere near him until I got to that point

[@plokminge]

I think his numbers are bloated af, but once he gets the cthulu treatment. He'll be more irrelevant, but still playable. Probably speculate to A tier.

Went 19 and 0 in my first game as him. 7 and 0 in my second. He desperately needs a nerf.

[@ZeroiusProduction]

Yes, their servers have been absolutely garbage the last couple of days, played a game of Slash for the lels and we "dived" them at their first tower, we all stopped, went back and it just automatically teleported me right back to their tower and it got me killed, multiple times, idk what the fuck hi rez is doing, but having decent servers aint one of them

[@dartmusica413]

is Smite dying? it keeps saying need more time to get a match during matchmaking

[@zolo-p3p]

If you are in a party of four trying to find a match in. 5v5 gamemode its gonna need to find a solo for your team same with if you are queuing duo for joust.

[@justsatan6747]

I've felt the same way about him. There are loads of people who have far more time on him but he fits my playstyle neatly. I think he's fine solely because he's super squishy and to get him off his horse, all you need to do is hit him with a sundering spear lmao
