Smite and I have a love/hate relationship. I spend all my time with it but it still ♥♥♥♥s me over. Like all MOBAs, Smite has a toxic community. To be frank, I wouldn't recommend new players to try this out alone since matchmaking isn't always fair and it's way more fun with friends anyway especially with the voice chat that they've added. I love god and goddess folklore so playing characters with abilities that match their lore and the variety and ever expanding pantheons is what makes Smite stand out.

If you're coming from another MOBA, I feel like building and items are even more important here so if you're new, read guides! The builds online have been super helpful.

All in all, I do recommend Smite. Among all the salty spammers, DCers, and the "VER VVX"s, there are small factions of the community that are friendly and are willing to help.
