One of the new features is the new ability “Agonizing Visions” which replaces “Decoy.” Loki now summons a vision of his tortured past. Enemies in range of the vision will feel the poison themselves, taking damage. What I love about this ability is that it is strongly connected to Loki’s lore when poison was dripped on his face. All changes made to Loki can be found on the Smite update notes.
To celebrate Loki’s new abilities, the Smite Team also added a new Loki skin, Stealthed Slayer. For the week of his release, Stealthed Slayer Loki will be free! Earn two First Wins of the Day and you’ll unlock this sharp skin. If you’ve missed out on the limited time event, the skin will still be available for 100 Gems in the Smite store.
Before i sign off, I want to bring up a major addition to the game. October celebrates LGBT History Month. To honour this month and the importance of LGBT history, Smite is adding new LGBTQ+ flag avatars in-game and they’ll be free until the next update. Just earn a First Win of the Day and you’ll unlock six flag avatars (Lesbian, Asexual, Bisexual, Transgender, Pansexual, Non-Binary.) This is just one of many steps the games creators are taking to make sure that Smite is a welcoming and inclusive space for all gamers.
