WHY DID THEY BUFF ARES THIS HARD?!

[@hisen3.146]

Ares is gonna need a revert or a nerf after this. This is literally the best buff ANY character has ever gotten, even over Ravana and his seasons of failure to top tier. This is just downright busted and I'm quitting Smite until they fix this. +2 basic attack is gonna make him unstoppable. Even my mom can beat people with Ares now and I only have 2 dads.

[@ishyameru6232]

🤣🤣🤣

[@CFallescence]

Just have faith they'll rework more gods to the same degree

[@ferminator4545]

Alright relax

[@jamesonedwardsii4943]

The last 2 sentences legit made me spit my food out 😭😭😭

[@demifolk8940]

i gotta show appreciation for how ur covering the patch lmao. Most people are just reading it and moving on, but showing you reacting to it and then showing us gameplay is way better content.

[@steedashifta]

Bro I love how you give context at the start of the video with the updates, informative and your reaction is hilarious

[@cerealforserious]

There's clearly only one explanation for ares buffs patch after patch: they're about to put an expensive ass skin on him lmao

[@67fofo]

The real question is: why doesn't warflag count for the ares passive if it is technically an aura item?

[@GhealachAlt]

it's classed as a passive not aura

[@Ti_Nspire]

Auras privide a constant buff but talisman and war flag place condition specific buffs on the teammate

[@Hulivilivoo]

@@GhealachAlt mail of renewal is in aura items and it says passive 23:54

[@67fofo]

@@Ti_Nspire I'm almost sure that talisman gives you a stack

[@James-uz8yu]

​@@Hulivilivoomail of renewal is not a constant aura, it requires certain conditions to be procd. Only items that give a permanent non conditional aura are considered auras for Ares passive

[@caliburnus7179]

We need the King of Camelot to make a return after his buffs

[@im_flat]

Arthur definitely seems really damn good this patch. One of the more fun Solo Laners and actually takes a fair bit of skill to use his kit correctly.

[@Ysidoroh]

Holy shit that 1v3 around the 9 min mark was insane. Couldn't believe you lived that long.

[@Rald123]

Nothin' better than a long day at work and coming home and seeing a fineokay-approved quality video. Been loving this way of covering the patch via video content. Keep it up, homie!

[@ricardosaulo3395]

The mitigations on Cthulhu are crazy, and he had vamp shroud buffed lifestealing, that’s why he’s not dying there.

[@Chryspii]

Old Stone of Binding (1700 gold one) was also considered an aura… so I don’t know why more items with a bb opus aura-like passives aren’t.

[@burningbird7776]

Is it me, or does the landshark sobek shirt at the beginning go hard.... Does anyone know how I may accuire that tshirt

[@Wapfgaming]

Is war flag bugged or is it supposed to give gold even if there aren't allies nearby?

[@RhythmWalkerKS]

When’s the update?

[@Kreau]

Not my man Squid! Why FineO WHY?!

[@jja0518]

Ares, Fafnir and a hunter in joust :O

[@professorkhaos0266]

Just imagine the objective shred with ares/ama/freya surely wont get nerfed righttt?

[@dbskherodude]

P sure that cuth bug has been part of his ult since release the lil purple bit that isnt in english

[@XeenoSan]

are you saying the text is a bug? because if so it's not

[@ZachGarnes]

Wouldn’t shoguns be even more op then heartward?

[@TheJanissary90]

You know what Ares should rework into Warrior.

[@jamesonedwardsii4943]

Ares has always been good mainly to snowball but the problem with Ares has always been he just dies so easily late game when everyone is full build. I think they wanted to address that problem.

[@matt95ch]

Full attack speed Ares owns?

[@CFallescence]

I hope they dont nerf him too hard yet. Also, can they just let bruisers be a thing in the jungle I'm kinda sick of the lack of the samey same shit

[@Yoshi7787]

Okay, fine

[@ABottleOfH2069]

Aresington

[@frenchiee_96]

Cause Ares relies on snowballing and your junglers not being garbage. I don't think I've ever lost a game with Ares as support or solo when I got a great Thor on my team. Beads shouldn't never be up on Squishies when you have Thor and Ares on the team. He's really bad late game and take that from a top 10 ares granted it was season 8 and I haven't touched ranked since😂

[@chillpengeru]

Yeah people tend to overate him like he's good in all situations, he's just not lol. In a normal game he's pulling no one with the ult, except maybe pulling a cabrakan closer to your Squishies, which I'm sure they love lol

[@frenchiee_96]

@@chillpengeru he's great on teams with character with dashes like again and artio. He doesn't really have a losing match up in any lane which is why people think he's good when he's a lot like Kali but reverse. He's disgusting early game especially with things like mystical and any other aura. I usually start with tainted and pythags then go into mystical or sov and that tends to auto win solo lane majority of the time cause your damage is wild.

[@MueroValdez]

AutoSpeed is a cheater? 10:22

[@soulgod5605]

If only I could hear them talk….

[@ricolives1166]

Ares is officially the best Support in the game AND Hi Rez literally can't balance ANYTHING

[@ianllanosv1586]

At this point I’d rather think they do it on purpose

[@ishyameru6232]

@@ianllanosv1586they do it on purpose with new characters, they said they’d rather tone it down and leave pubs fucking broken for months than to release a balanced god 😂

[@FullVelours]

Fafnir is way better.

[@chillpengeru]

Tagging this comment, we'll see in a week or two

[@cutemeister]

Can Ares 2 proc breastplate of regrowth ?

[@jordanlicht1601]

No sadly it's hp5 not an actual heal...smite is weird...it's considered Regen and healing but not a direct heal to proc it...

[@jordanlicht1601]

Because of how the affect is worded sadly

[@Redchoo]

Warfragging gameplay?!? Please make warfrag aura item, been saying it for years. Also warfrag

[@horn_hero]

They buffed ares and didn’t nerf Marty.

[@juniorforlife1989]

But they did nerf Marty, lowered scaling and increased cooldown on the ult, as well as some other decreases but don't remember where😢

[@jaredlarger]

Why is auto speed a cheater?

[@alexander6421]

What were they smoking in Hirez bruh
