I think you missunderstood something on Tiamat passive, the damage reduction is 25% + 6% of her AP, this scaling go up to 30% bonus DR, so when fully scalled, Tiamat passive gives 55% damage reduction

[@ryanlc0552]

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but that's incorrect, she gains 6% of her power on top of the 25% not until it reaches 30% mit, it does not go higher than 30%

[@ryanlc0552]

Worded slightly poorly so just so it's clear, passive is 25% mit + 6% of her power but it cannot go above 30% mit

[@soixev6330]

@@ryanlc0552 in the patch 8.4: Death Begets Life Decreased the Damage Mitigation from 60% to 30% + 5% of Tiamat’s Magical Power, Capping at a total 60% Mitigation at 600 Magical Power And in the patch 8.10: Death Begets Life Decreased % Mitigation Tiamat gets from this abilitie’s base value from 30% to 25%

My Top 5 Passives 1. If Bake is on the list then so should Vamana considering they both have similar passives except Vamana converts prots to ability power and attack speed, syncs very good with his ult too 2. Maman's passive spikes is the whole reason shes OP, surprised it didnt make the list 3. Surturs passive giving him insane prots and heals that can stacked 3x 4. Ao Kuang's passive giving him cooldown resets and heals whenever he deals damage or executes, similar to Thanatos 5. Achilles going armor or damage mode is very good and versatile

[@gawadroit5010]

achilles passive is usually the most broken passive in the game for sure. pair that with an execute and you get him being viable since his release and meta for most of the time since his release.

[@jameshalldorsson9695]

No maman passive was a mistake

[@troymerz4344]

Why?

[@colinryan4737]

It's garbage now. Not even worth an honorable mention tbh.

[@aidangoodwin7031]

They nerfed it pretty hard. It's definitely not bad by any means, but it's way worse than it was on release. I wouldn't mind seeing a very slight buff because I think Maman is a super fun God to play.

[@jameshalldorsson9695]

@@aidangoodwin7031 People say this but I went against a Maman last night that did 70K of damage with 24 kills in a 34 minute game, sure my team was kind of feeding their brains out, but nonetheless 70k is ridiculous. She's still good if played properly for sure, one of the strongest mages after they dropped the mage passive.

[@ShadowNite1105]

I'm surprised Cerb and Kuzen passives weren't here. Cerb can somewhat invalidate early game healing, as well as disrupt late game healing, as well as keeping him healthy mid fight since that's usually when you would use a heal And Kuzen straight up gets iirc 30 mitis just for doing his job, not to mention how it influences his kit to lean more into him being even more of a wall than most Guardians/Supports

[@Missingno14]

I started playing Cerb recently and it's crazy watching my health bar refuse to budge when I get hit by a Sundering Axe proc, because you get 80% of the damage dealt back as health from the enemy healing.

[@Platypusb1ll]

I would say Jorm's immunity to displacement in exchange for a slight slow and damage taken increase is up there if you are against a team with a lot of such CCs.

[@CG_allwaysblamegary]

well it depends on the ccs he completley counters kumbhakharna though but that damage taken increase sure can hurt alot

[@hartmann4710]

​@@CG_allwaysblamegaryhonestly? Thats a pretty old take His passives downsides used to be more crippling at a 20% slow and 15% dmg taken increase, but its now only 15% slow, 5% dmg taken Like, im pretty sure if you calculate things, a jorm taking 5% more dmg ends up as tanky, maybe a teeensy bit less tanky then tyr lol So if we view the passives as interchangeable, its a choice between a massive resistance vs most ccs or a near- immunity to slightly fewer ccs

[@CG_allwaysblamegary]

@@hartmann4710 yeah but no matter who you are taking 5% extra damage from a hunter magenor assasin is gona hurt a ton

[@hartmann4710]

@@CG_allwaysblamegary Ill gladly take 5% more dmg in exchange for ignoring death sentences like Ares, Da ji, Heim, Cerb, Ult, Maui, Silv, Herc, and Tyrs entire existence etc... Really. Think of just how many ults or whole ass kits straight dont work against jorm. A quick count had me find 21 gods that are heavily limited in how theyd usually want to play if matched vs jorm And i mean heavily limited. Stuff like herc, tyr and ares who miss out on half the reason you play them vs Jorm. Didnt count every itty bitty knockup There are cases where it is a detriment, Merc for example can use his dash to interrupt your roar and then crit your for 5% more dmg immediately since you dont get yeeted back But those are the niche cases. And we aint even considering his autos in his passive and how they disable shit like Kaldr, Odin and Cabra ult, khumba passive Jorm passives goated. Like hella goated

[@CG_allwaysblamegary]

@@hartmann4710 trust me i know but people will play around that counter and while hercules might not be able to use his combo anymore he can still defenetley hit the moves as your slowed and he will also do more dammage and congrats you countered heim ult now you take 5% more dammage and heim can also play around the passive with his 2s knockup giving him a free dammage increase

[@excursor4296]

The extra gold from Fafnir passive is great and the prots mean you don’t usually ever need to but a t2 item.

True, it's just the rest of his kit feels clunky.

[@XPhyXics]

@@nathaniels9141 Thats just an excuse for being bad. He's extremely easy to use in support for cc use his 1 use your 2 to to heal yourself or give yourself or teammates attack speed his 3 is a leap with huge range and very nice AOE when he goes into his ult everything has much bigger AOE including his basic attacks I don't understand how you think he's clunky your not meant to use your 3 for damage use it if your low save your 1 for if your teammates are pushing and use your 2 all the time if possible very simple god.

[@Cedricfilms]

I'm sorry but there is no way Jorm doesn't make the list let alone be an honorable mention. Knock ups are the strongest CC in the game and he's straight up immune from knock ups, banishes, pulls etc. Entire ults like Ares ult doesn't affect him etc. Other than that solid list. And that's not even covering his spray AOE autos which Fafnir has to ult to get

[@hartmann4710]

Agreed. But theres still this huge stigma that his passive is a detrimemt cause back in the day it used to increase dmg taken by 15% Now its only 5%, wich is honestly a fair trade for ignoring like 15% of the most game changing ults lol

[@pineapplekun8769]

​@@hartmann4710 never knew they lowered it, i thought it was still 15

Video on weakest passives and buff/rework ideas ?

[@plilerj]

Its entirely meta dependant, but in metas where 45 minute plus matches are common chronos gets a stupid amount of power for it

[@julianmcmurray7734]

Unrelated to the video but i absolutely love the pokemon music you always have in the vids.

[@m4ngell]

Cuchu's passive made him my favorite god

[@ObsidianLiger]

I believe Kali's passive used to RESET her to 90% hp if she wasn't at/above that, meaning antiheal did not affect it.

[@MechanisCaduceus]

When you brought up Anubis passive, I felt EXTREMELY vindicated. When I picked up the game in 2015, I read that passive and said "that's a lotta free stats... yes please!" XD

[@rabceesaint8981]

I like the list but I feel like Achilles is missing. His passive to over cap prots is simple but OP.

[@amirrbah167]

I have a question if in smite 2 you can build any item will oloruns passive need to change?

[@sunshineandrei2569]

Good point

[@scorpioperk1137]

I'm a fan of cerberus. "Our heals" which I will admit is weaker with the healing changes if no one runs lifesteal. And Xing Tians full HP5 build is HILARIOUS. I Spam laughed the entire enemy team in the middle of the map in Arena for a good 30 seconds before they even got close to killing me.

[@MutantmanKJF]

Still shocks me how many people dont know how to take advantage of yemo's passive. Build gengis chronos and cloak of ascetic its a combo that gives her so much omi regen her team cant die if they are grouped up. Also khepri passive much more annoying then you'd relize.

[@ThePokemonTrainerr]

You forget about spear of deso giving her almost 3 and a half bars of omi on a kill/assist

[@MutantmanKJF]

@@ThePokemonTrainerr Fae blessed hoops other 10% makes her shields nicer. But after watching the 50% thor video I want to try bauble on yemo since there isn't healing debuff.

[@omukssbm]

No mention of Hachi is crazy to me. He gets what feels like infinite MP5 right at the start of the game for free. Also no maman lol

[@ethanbosch6770]

Don't forget that xing tian's passive has been buffed where he can get unlimited hp5 now

[@bgt-zephyr]

Fafnir, Surtr's 1 and Jörm have very strong passives as well

[@IlIentente]

Indeed, Yem op. One game, I was juggling 4 ppl between two tides in my ult lol.

[@arbiter771]

How did you put Tyr passive on here but not Jorm lol? Complete immunity vs reduction to them

[@nameynamd9212]

2:50 Just realized this passive might be only okay in Smite 2 from giving extra crit damage/chance

[@HadeyanUtkan]

Honorable Mentions: Guardians: Ymir , Terra, Khepri, Charon, Fafnir, Ares, maybe Jorm too Warriors: Erlang Shen, Sun Wukong, Nike, Achilles, Surtr ADC: Danza, Neith, Rama, Heim, Skadi Mid: Poseidon, Baron, Eset Assassin: Maman, Ravana, Mercury (I'm shocked that Mercury not in the actual list), Awilix, Camazotz, Nemesis I mean Smite has so many strong and niche pasives/abilities, I can talk about'em all the time. But I wanna talk about 2 very overlooked passive 1st. Tsukiyom. I think Tsukiyomi has a design problem. His passive totally a passive that you would dream of for a basic/auto attack heavy assassin (such as Kali, Arachne, Bakasura, Ravana and such) but Tsukiyomi generally poking, get in and get our type of guy. Yes he also basic attacks with long range basic attacks and close regular attacks when it needed too but he is like Da Ji or Susano, he somehow use basics but not as much as gods like Erlang, Kali, Nemesis, Arachne, Bakasura, Ravana, Set.. That's why people overlook Tsukiyomi's passive cuz if you're not committed to it, you might not get the best benefit of it. But on paper it's super strong. But luckily I'm a supp main and when I need a physical support or assassin support for some dive comps. My pick generally would be Ne Zha or Fenrir (I ain't like Serqet supp as much as some people do) but lately I discovered nemesis and tsukuyomi supp for myself and I enjoyed a lot. And Tsuku's passive works as support cuz I can go frontline and basic attack people to proc my passive and it replenish at least a bit of my mana and hp bar. Very nice passive but definitely, not suited for rest of his kit and also, heal is not that big. But if you play bruiser jungler or solo or support then that passive become very nice. 2nd passive is again all about "support-main take" , "support mentality take" . It's Discordia. Yes when it comes to mage supports Eset, Aphro, Baron are like the holy trinity . And Nox the close fourth I assume (I don't like Nox supp btw, Eset can do almost anything Nox can and even do better IMO) but for last couple of years I cooked with some different supp mages. Like Tiamat, Hades, Anubis, Poseidon (movement build amazing) , Hel, Merlin, Ra, Hera but none of'em felt as good as Discordia. I think she is a very sleeper pick. I'm not saying she can replace Baron, Eset and Aphro, she ain't as pure of a support as these. And Ofc cant be better than any guardian and most of the warriors for the job. But if you wanna try something new and something strechy, way better than you expect. First of all her 2+1 combo amazing with War Flag + Stone Of Binding + Divine(or Ethereal at some points) + Gem of Iso you just mez'em, root'em, slow'em, shred prots of'em and nicely poke damage'em. Thx to her 3 you always have access to faster cooldown which is nice for supp. And her ult not an ideal supp ult for sure but it's not bad at all. You cripple and toxicated everyone that effected by. So it's kinda Bachus ult + Artio's 2 together in spreading motion. But since this video is about passive, let's come to that. As Mid Discordia you have to race with your ADC and Jungler (or solo lately) to have that passive on you. In late game her passive gives 35 Physical Power and 50 magical power so in late game it's just like you drank 2 bottle of power potion or you also have red buff. So it's not a big deal in late game. But in early game, from the get to, at level 1 her passive gives 6,5 physical power and 12 magical power. This is like you having 2 starter item instead of 1. For early game that's a great little boost. and good thing is, when you support you don't need to race for that passive, you can share and if you guys dominate early game in duo lane most likely you'll share that with your ADC which is ultimate peeling IMO. for example, at level 5 when you guys get your ults, Discordia's passive will give 12,5 physical power and/or 30 Magical Power. It's almost the equivalent of Ra's 3 tick of Ra's 3... So IMO she is a really great early snowball, early to mid game , landing phase support with her kit, her safety and her passive.

As a Tsukuyomi main who plays him in Solo Lane, his passive is really nice for sustain.

@@DystymiA__ Yeah for solo and supp that passive is really nice, I Agree, But for ability base assassin it's a bit confusing.

[@DystymiA__]

@@HadeyanUtkan Yeah. I don't really play jungle, and the few times I've used him there, his passive only really helped for early game clear, after that phase of the game (playing him in jungle, his 'main' role) is pretty much useless, tbh.

[@hunterhofmann-hitt1756]

Jing wei not being an honorable mention is criminal

[@joemonreal4494]

King Arthur's passive is a whole 2nd kit, 7.5% Mit, 15 HP5, and an effective 60% ultimate cooldown.

[@odespair8362]

Eset, team wide sustain and a spicy cooldown buff for herself.

[@philspence3073]

Scylla is probably the reason that class passives were removed. Mages got extra power and Scylla gets innate power and was busted during the class passive days

[@hernan6205]

I would have put change's passive, i think being hable to bit what ever you want with out returning to base is quite op and would shine a lot more if she just had a better kit or more healing so she doesnt return to base as often.

[@gawadroit5010]

in theory its great, in practice you still have to back to base almost as often to reset for hp/mana so it doesn't get used much. its not bad but its definitely not top tier

[@hernan6205]

@@gawadroit5010 It really depends on how good you are at chang'e, you can buy health and mana potions, and from mid to late unless you take lots of damage you never return to base. If she had even better healling the you would never go back. Also you could put the pasive in a better god, or imagine it on a solo/guardián that have more sustain.

Thana 15 is bit low for me. You actually get global vision + it enchanted your movement toward low hp gods. I don't see that much of diff between thanas and Kali's passives. Kali is much more situational, when Thana receives actual power to 1v5. No, I don't play much of Thana 😆

Legit you could make an argument for pushing tiamat higher Her ground stance's abilities are pretty crappy overall, with low scaling, horrific base dmg and mid to bad range, main reason it still feels so overbearing to deal with is the 4 being cc immune and filling up your scales by a lot The dying part also works fir either team, so your allies feeding is a "positive" for once lmao She also gains scales through the deaths of her minions And the aerial healing also procs off of enemy minions, meaning it activates 12 times per wave Oh, and her serpents trigger the big heal on death because of course they do
