Smite and Neith

Today I played Smite for the first time, and I really enjoyed it! I immediately took a liking to the Egyptian Goddess Neith. She is a Carry/Support and at first I was like; "WTF you cant have carry and support on the same character!". Turns out you can. She has a long range poke as her Q and it snares on hit, her W is an AoE damage that slows attack speed and heals you, her E is a backflip that damages and places a "Broken Weave" where you were and damages people, her R is a super long range sniper shot with homing and her passive causes enemy deaths to leave behind "Broken Weaves" that interact with your abilities in some way. The game play is pretty similar to any MOBA with similar heroes except that you play in Third Person, Attacking is your Left Mouse Button, Moving is WASD keys and spells are 1-4 on the keyboard. It took me a bit to get used to for instance, the enemy Fenrir (similar to Warwick from LoL, and Ursa from DOTA with an ult like Skarner also from LoL but with a silly leap) would run out of lane into the jungle and then the next thing you know is he has leaped from behind you and is tearing you a new one. Tunnel vision kills! It's a pretty fun game overall.
