SMITE - God Reveal - Yu Huang, The Jade Emperor

[@not_ian5543]

Weirdly enough, he feels like an old school character. But in the best way.

[@channelrandom2225]

Same from design to skills he gives me vibes of he was at base launch

[@islamardjoune1042]

To be honest its better than making futuristic champions like league of legende

He deserves more animations in his skills, more green and water effects, but very cool god, top design 👏

Finally Chinese pantheon has their leader. Like Norse has Odin and Greek has Zeus. i was wondering where was the Jade Emperor all this time? Lol and he's finally added to Smite.

[@sparky3574]

So some Pantheons have their own leaders. I’m trying to figure out which leads them, since there so many groups with powerful individuals. It’s a challenge to see which one is in charge.

[@LordTerrantos]

Hindu also has Shiva now so two Pantheons have their Leaders now.

[@novarunner34]

Japan had Amaterasu for a while now so they have their leader too

[@SaiyanGamer95]

Nu Wa can be considered their leader. Or one of their leaders.

[@littleq4320]

I thought that Izanagi is the leader of the Japanese pantheon.

[@1998topornik]

His kit is suprisingly simple. I expected something akin to merlin or tiamat.

don't be fooled..his 4 will be a nightmare..for the enemies and for you as well :))

Passive that builds as you fight and adds effects to abilities First ability does damage, and reduces protection, in a weird shape Second ability, does damage in a line and builds passive Third ability is a leap with a twist, Ult is a line with a knock back Feels like the kind of god you'd have made a year or two ago. And i like that

[@kevinnorwood8782]

Interesting that this trailer talks about a "Demon King" that Yu Huang defeated, because based on what I read in the lore scroll of the first chapter of the Divine Light event, it sounds like that Demon King is trying to find a way to come back. Mulan, Sun Wukong, and Zhong Kui just fought a huge amount of demons in that scroll, and one of them mentioned the Demon King before it was killed. So it sounds like he wants Round Two with Yu Huang.

[@kevinnorwood8782]

[@stefanciocan1605]

I tried it just now...it's definitely an interesting mage. His 3 is damn useful though.. Every time I used Thana ulti on him Yu Huang used 3 and got away... His 2 is a bit ...jumpy. You need to aim really well with it against an enemy, just like 4. His 2 is definitely the most important ability ( you will want to max it out first for wave clear ) and his 1 makes a good combo with 2 and 4 ...his 3 is a debatable.. I couldn't use it that much for combat because I got ganked a lot by enemies..soo.. yeah. This is Yu Huang.

[@Killybillee]

yeah he doesn't feel overpowered at all, it's a good balanced god with a nice kit. I like it.

[@boxhead1993]

Unpopular opinion: not every god needs a cinematic reveal. I miss the days where every god was given a specific (usually their most popular) story that establishes their lore and character and what role they played in their respective pantheon rather than just a vague explanation of who they are and how they tie into the Smite lore. Like, how do the dragons and the Phoenix fit into his lore? How did he become the emperor? How did he master the dao? Why did he have to at all? Not to say the trailers aren't visually appealing, but a character's lore was the biggest reason I fell in love with smite and why I stayed playing in the first place. It just kinda seems like the magic is lost

[@glippyglopgigoop5297]

It's still in the game and on their site my guy

[@nicholassookdeo9441]

[@djbanify]

Seems I am abit too late for the party, but here it goes. I am a chinese dude who prays in chinese temples and likes to study chinese myths. lets break down Yu Huang lores shall we. - So you gotta first understand, way back before the Song dynasty, there is no Yu Huang. It was being told by a Song emperor to strengthen his imperial position. The Song emperor claims a Heavenly Authority visit his dream and gave him the mandate of heaven. So what exactly inspires him? The idea of the king of god, Indra sakra from Buddhist hindu religion. Not much lore until the later chinese folk religion based his rule like the ones on earth. and so the myths spreads. - In chinese culture, dragon and phoenix are symbols of royalty, dragon for the emperor, phoenix for the empress( it also use to describe the perfect couple and the pinnacle of male and female adulthood). So not much lore to based on these 2 Regal creatures. - Since Yu Huang is the Emperor of the 3 realms ( heaven, earth and underworld) he must that all powerful dude who knows the way. So that explains his Dao stacking abilities - The fact he defeats powerful demon, he is a prince who chose cultivation, that was all just folklore - Hirez better be launching a birthday skin for Yu Huang on the 8th day of chinese new year cuz that is his birthday

[@adam234ization]

At last jade emperor. Odin,Zeus,Shiva Ra and Jade emperor would be a nice lineup

[@B0LTz]

I glad the Chineses now has their King in this Game

[@ProPex580]

I needed a bit more l o r e . Most of it just talks about what he's known for and how he's ready to fight, but I felt like there's so much to talk about him that they could have added bit more info.

[@zurinarctus1329]

Yu Huang is also Indra of everything in the Kāmaloka (World of Desire). Humans like me or you can become this person if we do good things after many karmic cycles, and there is an infinite amount of Yu Huangs in the multiverses (based on Buddhist/Hinduist cosmology). China has adopted these Buddhist views for thousands of years. It is in the Sanjiao systems, where Buddhism is on top. Today, Buddhists are easily overwhelming and more powerful than traditional folk worships.

[@nicholassookdeo9441]

Hmmmm interesting. I wish they added buddhist deities. I guess they would add guan yin/avalokiteshvara since they are the most popular.
