Tiamat will likely be playable in the mid lane but potentially flexing in jungle or solo. Her conflicted personality will be literally translated to her kit by allowing her to show both sides of herself in gameplay. Her flying stance will be elevated, unlike her ground stance where she will walk on all fours. Tiamat has 2 stances based around her flying and ground postures.

From her gorgeous visuals, animations, and in-game presentation to the dual-Mage archetype ability kit, we hope our players enjoy her as much as we did bringing her to the game.”

“We wanted to go above and beyond, especially with Tiamat being the first God of the Babylonian pantheon. In her Ground stance, she plays as a feral, draconic, brawling character.” With her Flying stance, Tiamat portrays her elegant, regal nature. “She is a Mage with two stances and the ability to summon multiple creatures, her monstrous children. “Tiamat is the primordial queen, Goddess of the Salt Sea, and a massive labor of love from the Titan Forge team,” says Dishant ‘Clumzy’ Samtani, one of the Game Designers behind Tiamat. Earlier this January in a trailer released Hi-Rez Studios Tiamat banished Cthulhu back to the depths and reshaped the world-including SMITE’s Conquest map-in her image. She embodies a majestic dragon form and a dual-stance Mage with elaborate, unique gameplay features. Tiamat who originates from the religion of ancient Babylon is known as a primordial goddess of the sea often referred to as “the glistening one”.

Live now, SMITE introduces its new God Tiamat which is claimed to be the most ambitious playable character to date on all levels.
