What is a MOBA?
Multiplayer Online Battle Arenas, or MOBAs for short, originated as a sub-genre of the RTS (Real-Time Strategy) genre. Because of this, in most MOBA games, the player takes control of a single character from the isometric (top-down) view akin to most RTS games. Typically, in MOBA games, a player takes control of a single character on one of two teams. Those players choose characters that all have their own abilities, or “kits”. To win, the players must use a combination of abilities, teamwork, and strategy to not only best their opponent, but destroy the opponents main structures. A bonus to the genre is that most MOBAs are free games, which is definitely a contributing factor of the their massive success. The genre has many titles, the largest of which being Defense of the Ancients (DoTA) and DoTA 2, League of Legends (LoL), and most recently SMITE!
What is SMITE?
SMITE is one of the more recent free MOBA games to enter the fray. In SMITE you don’t just choose a character, you choose a god. You’ll instantly feel an attachment to characters like Thor and Zeus because even if you don’t know the lore behind them, you’ve at least heard their names before! What makes SMITE so immersive is Hi-Rez Studios’ inclusion of historical lore into the gods’ abilities, kits, and play styles. Thor and Loki aren’t just characters from Marvel comics and movies. They’re also a part of Norse mythology and you can take control of them in SMITE!
What makes SMITE different?
SMITE takes all of the strategy of the top MOBA games and adds another layer of difficulty by putting you into the action! Unlike most MOBA games, SMITE offers players the chance to experience the MOBA genre they know and love from a third-person perspective. This unique perspective allows for an extremely immersive experience unlike any other game in the genre. While this doesn’t sound like such a big change, once you play it you’ll understand! All of these things added together is what has gaming websites everywhere continually rating SMITE as one of the best MOBA games available! - Hry

sooo the husband ran away when he saw his dead wife, key word being dead, after she had died, keyword being died, and he went to the underworld/afterlife, key point the location, to find her...
what the hell did he expect?
XD
myths are weird, there's one where a supposidly normal samurai manages to piss an an entire river into existence
To be fair he probably thought that was just her soul he was with and not her corpse
cute little cat girl that is 5000 years old.
@@8balls122 I NEED TO KNOW THE NAME OF THAT
Her passive is literally the definition of : "kill me and I will become stronger then you can ever imagine"
Poor Izanami, he swore to beg for her freedom and return, but he left the minute he wasn't attracted to her
he left the minute that she was a rotting corpse, if you're telling me you would tap dat cadaver then you have some mental issues, (also she was a corrupted version of the true izanami)
I'm not sure, if you would accept a walking rotten corpse of your love.
it sucks but she ate the apple of the dead 😞
Or maybe it's because she turned into a psychotic cadaver that eats souls of the dead?
Not exactly wife material.
Also, not the kind of thing you want to leave the underworld.
You know, I think both Izanagi and Izanami might have overreacted back there. Just saying.
you don't say xD
you would react the same if you saw the dead shell of your spouse chasing after you.
To be fair to Izanami, she'd been having a _really_ shitty day, and Izanagi almost seemed like he was putting a concerted effort into making the day even worse for her... I mean, first she had to give birth, which is already an excruciating enough ordeal on its own, but she literally had to give birth _to fire itself,_ and the strain of _that_ ordeal realistically killed her, so that was a pretty shitty start to her day. Unmentioned in Smite's lore is that Izanami's last act before she passed away was to give birth to Mizuhame, the goddess of water, and tell her to calm Kagutsuchi if he ever grew violent again... Well, that act of compassion was immediately thrown out the window 'cuz Izanagi blamed the newborn Kagutsuchi for Izanami's death and straight up butchered the baby she died giving birth to... Izanami was understandably upset at this and, to spite Izanagi, ate the food of Yomi and became one of the netherworld's denizens by doing so, basically denying Izanagi the one he loved in return for killing the son she loved... However, when Izanagi came to return her to the realm of the living, she still agreed to counsel with the Yomotsukami, the gods of the dead, and ask them if she could be allowed to return after all. In exchange, Izanagi had to promise not to look upon her during his visit. Which he did promise. And then he couldn't contain himself any longer; he just _had_ too look upon his beloved Izanami again and promptly created a light source... That's when he realized that his hawt waifu was now a rotting, maggot-eaten and badly burnt corpse, ran in horror from her, out of Yomi, and blocked the entrance with a huge boulder. Izanami, by now _quite_ fed up with Izanagi, demanded that he either removed the boulder or she'd kill a thousand people every day... and Izanagi, remaining as reasonable, mature and accomidating as he'd been so far, went for the reasonable and mature option of sneering back that he'd just give life to one-thousand five-hundred every day instead of just, you know, _removing the frickin' boulder._
To be honest, here she looks kinda cute for a corpse) Yes, skin is pale, eyes are furious but that's the only wrong things. Whatever Izanami looked like before death, she doesn't seem to be so terrifying.
That's awesome. One of the funniest stories I've ever read.
Damn, her husband was like "NOPE" and sprinted outta there.
Looks like Loki has a Rival now
Ao Kuang has been in the game for ages...
+Osama “BOOM” laden nope
+Average Joe lol Ao Kuang is definitely better than loki.
Flying loki, Thanatos anyone?
+Osama “BOOM” laden amen
If Hi-Rez doesn't make a silent hill nurse skin for this god I'm gonna be sad.
This deserves to be put all over forums, perfect idea
They gave her a "doll" skin so close enough
She reminds me of Hisako from Killer Instinct. Can't wait to play as her.
ayyy another ki player
Hisako was a impersonation of her
Someone get Mythymoo for the REAL Izanami god reveal.
Lmao I know right?
dont worry he is already on it
No.
LOL
+darkness4love lol
The trope of "food you eat in the underworld binds you there" reminds me of Persephone and the pomegranate seeds Hades fed her to bind her there.
I wonder if it's a coincidence or whether both stories have a common source.
Two years later...
Also this story reminds me of Orpheus and Eurydice story.
So it's Loki... But ranged. Gotcha
Loki's trash
*As I have a Loki profile pic* yeah, complete garbage.
+Sebastian Lopez (EnderTitanMU) lul
Right now its ranged Ao kuang lol.
Can't get more op than that.
I think they should add Tsukiyomi. Then it'd be like sibling rivalry between Amaterasu and Susano'o
Gappy Peters we’re getting tsukiyomi
Looking forward to playing as her
Great! The only ones missing now are Izanagi and Tsukiyomi, so the Sharingan squad is together.
We need Mangekyo too XD
amateratsu is already there
Mangekyo literally means Keleidoscope, it's not a god.
wal kin were getting tsukiyomi
I love how they improved on their God Reveals. That was really informative!
Ok sooo:
Long Black Hair: Check
Grey...ish skin:Check
Orange eyes: Check
Stuck in a cave for centuries: Check
Wants to kill every human: Check
Can teleport: Check
....Enchantress...that you?
more like Samara from the ring
Actually, yeah. this is Samara lmao
+allthe banter Atleast Izanami doesn't have a traumatizing face
Shovel knight wants his Shield knight back! Xd
OMFG LMAO ... but nah enchantress herself was possessed she doesn't entirely hate human life
Izanami backwards spells Im a Nazi. Accident? I think not!
Technically Izanami backwards would be "Minaza-i" given how Japanese works. (well, along those lines at least)
+steeledminer616 oh man u rekt this guy
+steeledminer616 it would probably be in kanji so it probably would be more like nami-iza
Mudclip11
Yeah probably, but the point is it wouldn't work out like people are saying. It only gets romanized for us ignorant westerners :P
+steeledminer616 i hate 漢字 XD
Damn if Loki wasn't annoying enough in duel...
+God Adagio And Chang'e
+Infinite Ruisu That is the point genius lol. You don't play duel much if you don't know the pain of nearly killing someone and they hop a wall. Now imagine stealth with that.
+ItsNewDon well atleast that ability has to charge up. with loki he just automaticly teleported. if all the autobans like hou yi, chronos, skadi, & kali are banned, loki is on my personal hatred list, along with erlang shen & he bo.
+ItsNewDon the only gods ive been able to defeat a good erlang with is ymir and anhur.
+Infinite Ruisu It's all good no harm done
I want to see Izanagi in SMITE
Next God: *Marina Joyce* the Goddess of Love
The godess of help me.
She's so hawt...
Ult: Ty guys so much love u guys so much
+Lucas Grijander oh goddess of help me , HELP ME!!!!
Audrey Chan xD
So is this also a preview of how Izanagi going to look. Basic design... I LOVE IT!
can we get an izanagi then?
Living Izanami skin would be awesome though. 🤔
5:07
Im afraid of the god "Sylvanoose"
He might hang me
She honestly looks like a more devastating Assassin than Hunter.
I could see a lot of people preferring to Jungle with her than Dual Lane
horus, thoth, and set is some gods i want to see
Oh you will see them
These reveal trailers with the lore are amazing to just sit and watch
Can't wait to play her and her skin looks badass
As if hunters weren't bad enough, now one has double basic attacks, and stealth. GG Hirez!
And the Stealth isnt that great.
stealth only lasts a few seconds,autos do half damage,I can already name a lot of characters that can counter her
shut and play here first
Don't forget underground immunity, silence, and insane team fight potential. Probably will be a high tier late game hunter. =D
Her basics don't do as much damage as normal hunters.
Now add Izanagi and my life is complete.
This is the first go reveal that I was there for
I love Hunters.
They are the Gods i play best, and Assassins.
I only really play as little Gods.
loli
yeah cuz u literally have to hold lmb when u play ADCs.... ADCs r totally balanced dude....
yea in that case mages are op because they press 1,2,3 and 4 on their numberpads
+Wyvern well once u stop pressing these 4 buttons u r useless as a mage
*NOW I FACE OUT I HOLD OUT I REACH OUT TO THE TRUTH OF MY LIFE*
This is why I love the youtube comments section sometimes.
Someone call Yu for his Ziodyne!
I can't wait to see Gaijin Goomba talk about Izanami as I remember he has in the past once or twice. I imagine he must be quite pleased to see her in the game.
Kinda expecting the same thing :P
He will probably make another video into it
I'm actually expecting a rant from him. Could be that i'm just uneducated in the matter but i see very little lore in her in-game abilities.
He will probably make another video into it
Well its not bad... but i've expected more from one of the founding japanese gods. It all seems generic underworld themed, without a single pinch of subtlety or clever lore crumble hidden. Again, i may just be missing some things. Hope he makes a video nonetheless.
Seems all creativity went into that boomerang idea.
Super Excited. I actually love her kit.
I find it hilarious how she died. I mean I'm not a bad person, but imagine this on her grave stone. "Rip izanami, who's vagina was burnt while giving birth to her son." LOL
You know what would be awesome is if we could actually play with the new gods on jungle practice while it downloads for Xboxone
"Ready to start"
hmmm... how bout Xboner
You can only play with Ra, Ymir, Thor, Neith, and Guan Yu when it says "Ready to start."
+Wyly Andrews 😞😞😞
Im actually more exicted to see Izanagi now tbh :D
As a izanami main, i really appretiate this, her character is op.
So what you saying is Skadi is now not the only hunter who could jungle. This bitch could out jungle a team full of junglers
Hou Yi is the best hunter jungler and has much better clear early, with a better leap.
Miss Zombie wow I didn't know Hou Yi could jungle.
He can, just triple bounce shot a camp, boom, jungle ADC.
Only him and ullr can jungle, skadi is not that ideal. thanks to her lack of mobility.
Eh I find Izanami has better wave clear since she can AA without wasting mana.
Hou Yi just got nerfed badly. His pen on his 2 is gone so he almost does no damage anymore with his basics
And Izanagi shall great 1,500 lives each day in return
AGH such good lore xD Love it
Haven't played this game in a long time, but this god looks dope
Yeah, just awesome. Going to main her
Hi Rez: We need a new hunter Skadi wasnt OP enough.
Community: How bout another Assassin?
Hi Rez: Lets take loki. And make him into a hunter. Seems balanced.
First of all she isn't even op... Second of all her stealth is decent, Awilix can easily counter her three since it is seen as a leap. Honestly, it is nowhere near as ridiculous as Loki's one.
Fries and salt work well together
clanwargods Seems pretty op to me. Her autos pass through and can hit 2x? And Awilix counters a lot of people but its easy to ban her.
Her AA's deal 50% damage. OP? Hardly. She's currently the hardest hunter I've played.
ImJykai Her autos are hard to hit when you use the 1 at times, but like Ethan said, 50% AA is nothing. Trust me, she isn't as scary as you think she is.
Yandere Goddess?
shut up
Hahahaha
Not funny
...
Ha. I get it.
cant wait to play her on ps4
i am so excited to play her
Now Susano can be happier - he''s mom is free, pissed off but free.
the funny thing is, accordding to the myth, susanoo,amaterasu and tskuyomi are all gave birth by izanagi himself
Yet they all consider Izanami their mother. And according to earlier variations of the myth, Izanagi and Izanami actually had some privacy when in Yomi, and oddly enough, he was horrified only when saw her, not when... y'know. So there is multiple interpretations, but usually divine Three oftenly consider Izanami their mom. Especially Susano.
yeah i know that, just saying it a weird thing. LOL. Plus their privacy scene probally remind of that scene in the scary movie 2. Guess that how they do it.
*weeb intensifies*
Because liking Japanese mythos means you forsake your culture to become what you believe is Japanese via media, right?
***** because its a joke.
Don take internet that serious pls.
canaldecasta
It's the fact that people actually do use Weeb as an insult without even knowing what it means.
Also, it's the internet and as such poe's law.
***** It's the fact that you don't know if i even know what something means.
Go play checkers, im playing chess.
her VP is pretty weeb-tastic
question: about the fade away... does the footprints izu makes when she walks fade away, and does the fade line she makes becomes invisible to?
Damn its been a year already
I really want to play a lot of her but I feel like she will be really nerfed so not sure what to do.
shes not even op ullr is still more of a threat than her
I had that same issue with Khepri; I wanted to play as him a lot, but he got nerfed so many times it was ridiculous, now I hardly play him anymore. I hope Izanami doesn't go down that road because she looks really fun to play as.
I agree with what you said, Khepri is a bit too weak now
+Karl Maier my friend's gamertag is I main khepri. they nerfed him like 11 times and he has the lowest base health of all guardians and even lower then a lot of other non guardians. his ult is so damn big that it's hard to put it on who you want. and it has a stupid start up time and animation to it. it's super dumb and should be smaller, and instant.
Leon Rodriguez I agree with the instant part, and I still think that it is BS that Aphrodite ult, Kumbha passive and Kali ult can save you from executes, while Khepri can't. If you think about it, you know they only did that, because some Junglers bitched about, how "op" the bug is, even though it is his main function IS TO SAVE a teammate from death.
Is Jesus finally coming in the next patch? :v
but he was a human
@@Lord_have_mercy_on_me_a_sinner they also have other creatures on the same level as gods. There's some Hindu archer dude who is their version of Jesus. The only reason Jesus won't be added is because way more people believe in it still, and will give hi rez bad press and a lot of legal cases to deal with. They even got bad press about their original Kali design.
No and nver. Unless you want to get ridiculous bad press.
Hisako found her way into smite
Can't wait for Hisako to come to smite
Woooo undead goddess is A+ Waifu material! Also 10mins ago I got here wayyyy 2 early.
+Ryan Kacprzyk I agree
+james marcleone
You make it sound like you wouldn't bang a dead, somewhat decaying body.
Actually If you think about it, Izanami is just very needy and wants someone to love her so banging her would't be that bad of an idea.
+james marcleone she is waifu
+kurbera I like this comment (:
She would be more balanced if her passive was the way her basics work (Like erlang shen, or Skadi having a dog)
no pet in lore :D
+Daniel Hani I think he meant that her passive should be her basic attacks hitting twice instead of her current passive.
Rick Roll That's exactly what I meant. Something like "Izanami's basic attacks have a boomerang effect hitting all enemies in range twice" like those two characters I mentioned (Example Erlang shen's passive which basically is :The dog also attacks making every basic hit twice"
You should really mention that the first ability negates the kama sickles ability to go through enemies, cancelling wave clear.
wow, that period
huh....welp they should make izanagi next cuz you know, he's the japanese version of zeus.....actually cronus because he divided his domain between his 3 children (though cronus didn't do it by choice)
It's pretty much been confirmed that the next God is the Mayan bat God camazotz so look forward to that
+Vesperia 566 what class?
+Devin C. Probably assassin
+hentaidancer harambe the supreme god
Spell izanami backwards.
Imanazi
lol I see what u did there... the Nazi memes are gonna come und I can feel it.
waffen ss skin for izanami confirmed
Minazai?
I want to see a Samara " The Ring" skin. Tv static teleport.
dope loki reskin i love it
YES SOMEONE FROM NORAGAMI!! Now we need Yato.
god of calamity.. hmm..
You know smite is a game about deities, right? Izanami is from Japanese mythology, and Yato from Noragami is a fictional character made up for the plot of the show. Yato isn't an actual Japanese God.
+ShadowedKite you must be fun at parties.
200odd300 Lol if only he was real.
Next god: KATON - GOUKAKYU NO JUTSU! XD
I'm reminded of both Persephone and Orpheus' love...
So does her basic attack count each hit with a single attack towards an item's ability?
In other words: if you took the green katana (whatever its name is) and threw one basic attack down a line of minions, would you instantly have max stacks of physical protection?
so.......... she's a zombie then
I hope no one thinks me odd, but I think Izanami is kind of cute. I feel bad for her, the man she loves, the man who she gave him a lot of children, comes to save her and OH NO shes not pretty any more, ya I would be rather mad too. Personally if I was her husband I would have still tried harder to save her.
And she was the creator goddess at that, so in a sense she and her husband were made for each other. Soulmates. And then the idiot doesn't listen to her warning, doesn't trust her, ditches her the moment he realizes that shes a rotting corpse, and then locks her in a cave.

Draconic Feline Izanami wasn't the Izanami that was killed during childbirth. She was literally a shell of herself.
wow smite gods introduction is epic
Izanami looks very OP at the moment
Dislike she should be a Mage
character category rotation,she has to be a hunter
+Benjamin Baker but why izanami they can think of any hunter. If izanami was a Mage her abilities will be more focused than a hunter . Sorry my English not that good
There's nothing on her lore that dictates she should be a mage.
Let HR do more creative things when they can
She should be Assasin.
Zhong Kui should be a Warrior, just check his depictions.
How does a game manage to get shitter and shitter as gets updated?
like your grammar?
shittier*
I dunno, one could say the same about your grammar
Proofread much?
Nice grammar
Please even someone help me, I had to delete the game from my totally Noot, by an error q appeared, I now try to download the client installation, but it never goes to the end, low in different incomplete sizes, and my Noot q says can not open the program, does anyone know q is that? I'm from Brazil.
This god is very good to me! Congratulations.
That passive makes me worried. It's basically the same as Olaf's original passive from LoL, which was so unbalancing that they had to redo him to makes him fair.
Literally from Akami from LOL even has a similar sounding name
seems like a great jungle
now we wait on Izanagi and Tsukuyomi
damn smite released gods really fast
I have a question. Izanami's 3 is considered a leap. So, can Awilix pull her out of this ability with her ult?
saving my favor for this
I don't play Smite but I'm a huge sucker for eastern mythology and fast, tricky characters in games like this
Guess we'll get Kagu-tsuchi sometime soon then since they mentioned him.
I thought it was ametrasu. But she didn't give birth kagasutchi
Izanami : It is a genjutsu which affects the target through physical sensations shared between them and the user to perform the illusion. Like its counterpart, in exchange for the temporary ability that it grants the user, the Sharingan with which Izanami is cast is rendered blind and loses its light forever. This technique and Izanagi form a pair, but unlike the latter, which is a technique capable of altering destiny, Izanami is instead one that "decides" it.
Finally a new God for the Japanese Pantheon now would you guys mind finishing it before you make another?
The moment you realize set was in the game during alpha and still hasn't been released
He's in now ;)
looks op af
izanagi actuay lit a comb on fire, i just don't remember if the comb belong to izanami or not
OP af
now this woman is my main solo lane enemy because balance
Now we have Izanami, how long till we get Izanagi?
here come the feminists yelling cultural appropriation
lol where. All I see is an edgelord named Jacob Mendonca
I bet the DP subreddits gonna blow up about this
I am the edgiest edgelord that ever edged on the great edge.
besides league is better
+jacob mendonca league is poop
Yeh. Not even a dead corpse is culturally appropriate.
Still waiting for the Manticore to be released
I'm definitely using ranged loki
Izanami isn't just the dead she represents creation and death not just death
Anyone else not able to get the update?
one of the most badass god yet love her
Lore almost feels like watching a horror movie.
