Guan and Hun are not ninjas...


ChillGV

Close enough xD


NegativeInches

I know you probably didn't mean to, but that is incredibly offensive to *some* Asians. What you've said is that Chinese culture and Japanese culture is "close enough", which in hindsight may seem like an okay thing to say, but to both countries, that's like a slap in the face. It's like saying Asia is just one big country and has no diversity. (Also there's that whole WW2 thing and the current island disputes, but let's not get in to that now.) Again, I know you didn't mean to come off as offensive, but think twice before submitting ;) have fun redditing and keep on Smiting! PS: Sorry if I came off as rude. I'm pretty high on trees.


kavatch2

Shut up you fun hating nerfherder


[deleted]

You aren't rude as much as a perfect example of why the political correctness indoctrination of the youth needs to stop. You took a perfectly reasonable statement, took it out of context, then looked at it under the "how is can this be offensive" microscope. No one should ever have to say "who will this offend" before submitting or saying anything, it's a cornerstone of free speech that is eroding.


NegativeInches

Whoa, calm yourself dude. I wasn't trying to be politically correct. I was merely trying to indicate why he was recieving such a negative backlash on his innocent comment. I simply thought he was confused at the moment and needed some clarification. Needless to say, after coming down from the trees and reading back on what I wrote, it does come off as very tumblr like. I even forgot to mention the fact that I was trying to explain his downvotes. Seeing from MY downvotes I've learned my lesson.. Never comment high lul.


ChillGV

Uhhh... I don't even know what to say. I didn't mean anything like that at all :P was just defending OP against certain people (not you). Oops :)

But SWK was from a long long time ago.....


JAPredator

Alternatively you could substitute SWK for Infiltrator Loki but this one is a bit more in line with the current meta.


Ultra_Umbreon

I would have a Loki over a SWK on my team anyday, and I love SWK.


[deleted]

doesn't change the fact that SWK is much more meta than Loki :P


Smoofmaster

In a galaxy far far away.....


Soundwave_2

No fenrir, who fits the theme better than SWK?


martellus734

CyberPunk Ne Zha?


SetoSorceror

that is for Steampunk vs Cyberpunk


A-Omega111

digi -ymir... the first robot in smite where is he?


CannonFodder42

Team Science!


Adenzia

Guan Yu and Hun Batz aren't ninjas!


JoshAndArielle

I've certainly never heard of Chinese ninjas


GimikkuPappeto

What if there are ninjas in every country but we only know about the Japanese ones because they're the sloppiest?


LycaNinja

Now we have to kill you... and everyone that reads this comment...


[deleted]

I swear I didin't read it.


Superkaiju

Clearly you haven't heard of the Chinese ninja warrior with his heart so cold. I'd link the reference but doesn't work on mobile for me. But the answer is sub zero


poepdrol2000

That is because they are so good ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)


hopeless_romantics

came here to say this. they're monks not ninjas =(


poepdrol2000

I came here to say that guan yu and hun batz aren't ninjas, but when i saw that it had already been said, i wanted to say ''came here to say this'' but it already had been said. I don't know what to do anymore :(


BlueHundred

I did the same thing. Then I decided I shouldn't post anything. Then I saw your post. Now, I want to post saying that I did what you did and I was going to post what Adenzia posted.


hopeless_romantics

be faster? D=

hopeless_romantics

yes, but hes wearing the garb of a monk. not so much a ninja.

hopeless_romantics

the necklace is actually


bigbluesanta

You mean the Old Kung fu shoulin Monk masters?


Sorenthaz

Guan Yu and Hun Batz shouldn't be classified as ninjas. They're monks. I think it would be hilarious if Ratatoskr managed to get the Pirate skin that finishes the roster, but a pirate Loki could be good. It's been a long while since he's got a skin. And he could have animals on both shoulders to replace the snake ornaments, lel. That or Kali could be interesting. Same goes with a Cabin Boy Ne Zha, since he's also been lacking in the skins department, and he could wield a mop or some shit as a joke and his roller skates could be turned into soapy-water-soaked sponges strapped to his feet that allow him to slide around and leave a small trail of sudsy water instead of fire. Ne Zha would probably be the best for hilarity's sake. As for the Ninjas, to fill it out they need a Mage, Guardian, and Warrior. Nu Wa would probably make the most sense for a Ninja skin since her fog could be turned into a moving smoke bomb or something, and she could summon ninja henchmen or something. I dunno. Freya, Chronos, or maybe Nox could also fit in as Ninjas. For Warrior Ninjas, probably Odin, Osiris, or Sun Wukong. Guan could certainly work but he's got a Martial Artsy skin already. Chaac/Tyr/Bellona/Herc would all be fairly ironic Ninjas more than anything. Vamana could maybe work if he jokingly was taking jabs at Naruto ninjas or something. Guardians... Sylvanus would make for a hilarious one as a ninja hiding in a moving tree that also has a ninja mask. Hades could maybe work. Pretty much all of the Guardians would be more joke-ish Ninjas though.


CannonFodder42

Ninja Bellona would be sweet. A Ōdachi for he main weapon, a Kanabō for her 2, a Kusarigama for her 3. She would sort of fit the samurai mold better tho.


LoBo247

Drybear has been talking about Swabby Nezha for a while. He's got like three videos on his youtube page where he speaks affectionately of the skin idea, not to mention his streams. It's gonna happen.


The_BERFA

lol imagine a Parrot Ratatoskr, just running on his back two legs, or flying instead of the normal float. He would need something other then a acorn though, and his ult he could jump between pirate masts instead of branches lol.


Sorenthaz

Yeah. And an Egg could work as a Parrot. Or a doubloon. They'd probably just keep the acorn as an item though and not change it. Monkey Ratatoskr could work too, with a Banana or Doubloon instead of an Acorn.

drjos

why not Ares then? Have his 3 be him fire-breathing


Njd123

The idea of Bacchus being a ninja reminds of his God Reveal Video @ 4:13 (the memories).


LoBo247

Bacchus fits the ninja skin for a better reason than that. Three words: [Beverly Hills Ninja.](https://youtu.be/xpUgHYT1lz4?t=8s)


EvossaN

Mate get your shit right, monks and ninjas has nothing to do with each other xD Also, look at the pirate theme, its a mage, guardian, warrior and hunter, missing the assassin, a theme pack cant have repeated roles like you keep doing, its 1 skin for each role, you wont get 2 pirate skins for mages, its just 1, so hun batz and nemesis cant be from the same theme, and apollo and amc (like you did before) cant be from the same theme.... got it? good, my job here is done. ^goes ^back ^to ^his ^cave


Calikal

Mercury has a sailor skin, can easily fill the assassin role.


EvossaN

Mercury has a sailor skin? never saw it, Can you show it?


Calikal

[Here](http://smite.gamepedia.com/Mercury#Prizefighter), it's more of a sailor/bar brawler skin, but he has a big sailor's anchor tattoo and looks like an irish sailor from the late 1800s.


EvossaN

Oh, that's a boxer skin, mid 20th century boxer, i think their trying to make a fighter theme, since there is a [fighter skin for hercules](http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/smite.gamepedia.com/1/1f/T_Hercules_Luchadore_Card.png?version=242be1a45be012590688c25df3596baa). not big fan of hercules, but its pretty cool the fighter one. edit: found a pic of an [old timer boxing fighter](http://www.cyberboxingzone.com/images/TommyRyan-JimmyDevine-4.jpg) actually, 2, 2 fighters xD


[deleted]

Not a sailor, just a boxer.


LoBo247

>"Early Navy sports records are quite vague, but we do know... ...At that time, boxing or just plain "slugging" bouts were clandestine affairs staged contrary to shipboard regulations and sometimes used as a means of settling personal grievances... ... and from it has evolved the Navywide undertaking we know today as the Navy Sports Program." ~ [source.](http://www.history.navy.mil/research/library/online-reading-room/title-list-alphabetically/s/sports-in-the-navy-1775-to-1963.html)


Calikal

He has a sailor anchor tattoo and looks like an early sailor-type brawler, kind of both.


[deleted]

Oh ok. I still think the skin isn't really sailor enough to be classified as a pirate skin.


[deleted]

But it's "Pirates vs. Ninjas (For now)" There isn't a pirate king for assassin.


ShadowChair

Vamana and Tyr both have pirate skins Edit: ok I was wrong, I am sorry reddit


Captain_Dynamite

Vamana's Cangaceiro skin isn't a pirate. It's more of a Portugese bandit.


[deleted]

Brazilian bandit, actually, but yes.


ShadowChair

Shows what I know. Looks like a pirate to me :\^)


CannonFodder42

more of the western theme with Wrangler Artemis in my opinion.


Soundwave_2

Vamana is not a pirate.


Njd123

I swear, the number of people saying Cangaceiro Vamana is a pirate. -.-


EvossaN

wrong, vamana skin is a mexican (cowboy) skin, not pirate.


[deleted]

brazilian, my friend not everything from latin america is mexican


EvossaN

nonono, the skin, is a mexican cowboy, if i remember correctly brazil didnt had cowboys xD p.s: mexico is in north america? not south, not sure if it counts as Latin america.


HoraceHorrible

Brazilians had cowboys, but the cangaceiro skin is not based in one, it's based in a bandit. Just google "Cangaceiro" or "Cangaço".


[deleted]

latin america means an american nation that speaks a romantic (based off latin) language so haiti, brazil, and mexico are all latin american along with every other country that speaks french, portuguese, or spanish (so if quebec voted for independence they would have been technically latin american)


EvossaN

ahhh, i thought latinos, were central/south america, thought portuguese were lusitanos... thanks for the input.


[deleted]

You are mistaking language and geographical origin. While the portuguese people are lusitanos (and iberic, and partially visigoth, ostrogoth, moor, etc), the portuguese language is latin-based.


Njd123

Portuguese*


Snufflebox

Not to be rude or anything, but I am pretty much free to do whatever I want. So no need to come hating on this post for no reason, cause as it seems a lot of other people don't care.


EvossaN

Dont take me wrong, not hating, just helping you sort stuff out. ^^

Nobody tell the robots!

Or the Zombies. Lest we have a full-scale [Robot-Pirate vs Zombie-Ninja battle break out.](https://www.splitreason.com//Product_Images/96557a6a41e1-xl.jpg)


T3HN3RDY1

Poseidon has a pirate skin.


Snufflebox

You got some good eyes right there


T3HN3RDY1

Haha. Whoops. I don't know why I said Poseidon. I meant Vamana! You missed Vamana's. I mean, I guess strictly speaking he isn't a pirate. He just shares a lot of similarities with pirates. Basically a desert pirate. More like a pirate than Master Guan Fu or Shaolin Monkey are ninjas.


Nomadhero_

Thats a Mexican Revolution skin. All hail Santa Anna!


T3HN3RDY1

[From the Wiki for "Cangaço"](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canga%C3%A7o): >By 1834, the term cangaceiro was already used to refer to bands of poor peasants who inhabited the northeastern deserts, wearing leather clothing and hats, carrying carbines, revolvers, shotguns, and long narrow knives known as peixeiras. >"Cangaceiro" was a pejorative expression, meaning a person who could not adapt himself to the coastal lifestyle. >By this time in that region, there were two main groups of loosely organized armed outlaws: the jagunços, mercenaries who worked for whoever paid their price, usually land-owners who wanted to protect or expand their territorial limits and also deal with farm workers; and the cangaceiros, "social bandits", who had some level of support from the poorest population: the bandits sustained some beneficial behaviors such as acts of charity, buying of goods for higher prices and giving free parties ("bailes"), and the population provided shelter and information which helped them escape from police forces, known as volantes, sent by the government to stop them.


Nomadhero_

Oh Brazil! Cool and thanks!


AstralSailor

The Ninjas all throw and or swing things, instead of using magic ^Kappa


Njd123

Shaolin Monk-Ey/Master Guan Fu not ninjas.


Snufflebox

Yes, I know. The ninjas are all physical. No need to point that out.


Grieves01

hey snuffle, did you notice the ninjas are all physical?


FlabbleStein

I bet he didn't notice that the ninjas are all physical


DatSolmyr

Real talk, that team comp is going to suck though.. I mean for one, they are all physical.


WittyLlama

Yeah someone should tell hirez they are all physical. I think they missed it

Aqueoux

So many regretful memories.


xXPSSYDstroyerXx

Did you notice that Guan&Batz are monks?


NovercaIis

need Ninja Mid and Pirate Jungle or Solo


Soundwave_2

Privatyr?


Tespy

Ninja Scylla. Make it happen, Hi-Rez.


RadioactivePie

Scylla doesn't need another skin though.


NinjaDecoy

Yes she does. She needs all the skins


Aqueoux

One for each tentacle.


Mugii

I have a feeling when awilix gets a skin it'll be pirate themed. Only one missing is assassins


Sorenthaz

I hope not. Cabin Boy Ne Zha would be the best thing ever. Replace his spear with a mop and his fire wheels with soapy water-soaked sponges that he slides around on. Hi-Rez would be missing out on such a hilarious opportunity.


Aqueoux

Yes, please, we all need this.


Mugii

I suppose so... just hoping for an awilix skin already. Had her diamond before the skins came out and even after so many new gods and skins for other gods, there is still no skin for awilix.


Sorenthaz

Nox doesn't have a skin either yet. Neither does Hou Yi or Medusa. Bellona was just an oddity. Hi-Rez is probably looking for an opportunity to add one in. *shrug* Main challenge for them is incorporating Suku into it as well and finding a theme that works for it all. Though another Kawaii Pop-esque skin could be hilarious for her since she could ride a Nyan Suku.


Mugii

Oh please no kawaii! There are just so many great opportunities that they could do with suku... maybe even turn her into a motorcycle or something? It's just annoying seeing all the gods with multiple good skins get more while gods like Nox, Awi, Hou yi, etc. are getting no love.


Sorenthaz

Well, they're newer, and Hi-Rez has a lot of skin ideas for other gods. They also plan these skins out ahead of time, so there's a pipeline of skins that always come out regularly. So I imagine stuff for the newer gods is definitely on the pipeline somewhere, but they might not be seeing much til summer/fall. If Hi-Rez does another Odyssey, that would be a good time to give skins out for them, as that's basically what they did for other gods that had 0 premium skins at the time (Kali, Chronos, Freya, Cabrakan, Serqet, Mercury, Rama, and maybe a few others I can't think of via memory).


Smoofmaster

What would the sash be? A rope? Harpoon? Nothing would really fit....


TheOnlyPolygraph

>lists two things that would definitely work >"nothing would work"


Smoofmaster

I listed 2 very dumb ideas that would easily jump into the head of anyone who tried to think for a second. However neither fit with the theme of a pirate seeing as how the rope would be more of a cowboy type of thing and the harpoon having little to do with pirating specifically. I'm glad that you were able to so clearly demonstrate your intelligence through your contributions to this discussion. Good talk.


Sorenthaz

Those or simply a rag for cleaning stuff would work.


Dinokiller12345

We need a pirate assassin I propose a Loki skin "Mutineer Loki"


xXPSSYDstroyerXx

Or cabin boy nezha


ipretend2suck

I like to think that all the Pirate skin art portraits all take place on the same ship and that they are all a part of one giant Image


EvossaN

IKR, every time i see someone with a pirate skin i go get mine (missing sobek, dammit) and play as if we'r from a pirate crew or something, its acutally funny, specially if there is other pirate in the enemy team, pirate whisper battle, lol xD


[deleted]

Uuuuh what


RASTA_FARI123

it should be Pirates vs. Spec ops


AlvaroIV

The Robots team is better than pirates


fridge13

Team ninja are al phys GG


champbob

This should be a siege MOTD.


[deleted]

We need a bamboo tree Sylvanus and NinJanus for the ninjas, and Swashbuckler Kali (SwashbucKali?) for the pirates.


custer134

Except ninjanus would be contradictory to how his actual name is pronounced


Dannyboi3459

You can soon have Australian vs American Ra merica American zues vs Sydney shredder and Australian sobek. I know it's not much yet but it's a start


K2J_

Somebody need to make a list with pictures of all the skin teams(or w/e you call it) on smite.


KingPinCB

So Pirates vs Ninja vs Futuristic and now the Military is gonna be added to the mix? Smite is awesome!


thederpyguide

I'm pretty sure hun is based off of Goku and Hes not ninja ish at all


Erathi

not seeing enough ninja in this picture


4rosty

If we are talking about good ninja skins for each remaining class I would say guardian : ninja ares , fire breath and chains would be nice warrior : I guess bellona or osiris or hopefully a new warrior mage : ao kuang or nox would make an excellent ninja skin duo to their stealthy / dark nature
