The start of the year for Smite has already kicked off over the past few weeks. Players have the chance to try out the new glyphs, upgraded relics, and the Obelisk on the Conquest map. Now, the first update for season 9 has arrived, and it comes with Shiva the Destroyer, a Warrior.
Shiva will be swapping between two distinct modes, Bliss and Destruction, each with an aura to aid his allies. His attacks vary based on what mode he’s currently using, providing him with flexibility in team fights or if he’s facing off against an opponent by himself.
Before the big 9.2 update, there will be a bonus patch, 9.1 launching February 8 that addresses Sundering Siphon, Chaotic Beads, and the Cloak of Meditation tree. In addition, Bastet is receiving the largest nerf, as she dominates the battlefield with her abilities.
These are the Patch Notes for update 9.2.
