July Contest 2022 - Harvest Moon
Post Body

Things got a little wild this time around! Many concepts were creative and explorative, but only a few truly grasped the concept of Smite's traditional God Design. As such, I am happy to announce our winner: u/Oddly_red47 with their concept Nemean Lion, The Impenetrable Beast! Straightforward in design, with enough elements to separate it as a God, but simple enough to grasp the original gameplay style that the classic Gods always had going for them.

Along with this, we enter this month's (belated) challenge:

Harvest Moon

Your job is to create a god that focuses on the agriculture. Now that we have over 120 gods in Smite, it's a surprise to see that the closest examples we have include Terra, Ah Muzen Cab, Geb, and Persephone. Although they provide a good basis for designing this month's deity, remember that the focus is on the harvest, not on the earth!
Other Examples:

  • Demeter (Greek): Mother of Persephone, governing anything from hearth and home to farmland and irrigation
  • Freyr (Norse): Twin brother of Freya, known for fertility, sunshine, fair weather and harvest
  • Oko (Yoruba): A renowned hunter who doubles as a god of farms, harvest, and bees, also known for their opposition of magic
  • Shennong (Chinese): The first Yan emperor and inventor of the plow, hoe and axe

Contest Rules

  • Only submit 1 entry per participant
  • Reposts of older concepts must be significantly changed (reworks on 2-3 abilities). Points may be deducted if concept is too similar to the previously submitted one.
  • You can freely edit you concepts after you post them. Final judging will take into account edits made before the contest’s final submission deadline.
  • At a bare minimum, concepts must include a full ability kit. Extra details such as lore, design notes, balanced numbers, etc are also welcome addition to help flesh out the concept and potentially score higher points.
  • Concepts will be scored based on how well they fit the theme along with 4 other categories; Thematics, Fun to Play, Balance, and Uniqueness. Check out this post for info on what each category means. (Scoring system subject to change based on judge)
  • Contest winners will be notified and will be able to choose the theme for the next contest. They may also choose to act as a judge for the contest.
  • Be sure to use flair you’re submission as a contest entry!
  • Deadline: August 5th
