SMITE Bellona God Reveal
One of the lesser known deities in the Roman pantheon, Bellona has come to say "hello" in the language of pointy stabby things in an update for SMITE.
One of the older Roman Gods, our lady friend here is the consort of Mars and beloved of Lucius Cornelius Sulla.
With melee attacks, a self buff that increases movement speed and protects against basic attacks she's a right little hellion. She also has a shield bash that reflects damage, a bloody great maul that does AoE damage and a scourge that'll flay the skin from enemies while preventing them from attacking.
Her ultimate plants a Roman flag in the ground, buffs her friends, and drops a 1 second stun on any enemies unfortunate enough to get caught in the area of effect.
The reveal video above shows off just how nasty this can be...

I realise I'm in the minority on GameGrin for playing SMITE, but Bellona is somewhat of a breathe of fresh air in terms of design. Even if she is a tad OP.

In what way a "breathe of fresh air" can you explain?

She's different. A lot of the other gods share a lot of similiar traits, but then have one unique "ultimate" attack. With Bellona, her three other attacks change what her primary weapon is, which change how she is to play. With one, you get a huge, slow hammer. Another, you get a sword and shield. The third, you get a whip, that heals you.

As I play primarily ADC or Ne Zha, Bellona is so overpowered and I really struggle to play against her. She needs nerfing
