They didn't have to make Lady of the Lore so dang THICC yet they did 😳

[escrobin]

So here is the full list of the gods I think will be added with reasoning based on my finds and speculation from you:

G1: *Shiva*
— The god is on the trailer and the name is said. Nothing to be added here really.

G2: *Jade the Emperor*
— The alternative name for him means "Heavenly Grandfather" and it’s logical to think that insta-links to heaven, because everything here is literally heaven. He became the monarch of all the deties in heaven and he was originally the crown prince og the kingdom of Pure Felicity and Majestic Heavenly Lights and Ornaments. The throne of Jade said it all anyways, but always to make sure.

G3: *Sir Gawain*
— This is a tricky one, because I thought Lancelot instantly with the round table. The horse was gold and Lancelot was given a great horse by Gawain, but never took care of it. While the next scene plays arrows that fades into the next god reveal, but I thought that might have been a Guinevere reference. BUT Gawain had the most honor out of everyone and he swore his oath to the Green Knight that he would come to his home a year from that day and recieve his blow. The golden horse easily represents Gringolet as he died heroic. It gives a lot of sense that it’s Sir Gawain as it doesn’t represent Lancelot.

G4: *Jumong*
— I was thinking Vali from the Norse myths a second, but there was just a lot that didn’t fit in the description. He fought the battleground and got born in a time of betrayal, but I think this spot is for Jumong. He was already in datamines long time ago, but he was called the "Son of Heavens" and fought the battleground against Toyotomi Hideyoshi from invading Korea. A Korean Pantheon would be sick and it makes a lot of sense it finally coming.

G5: *Maui*
— Maui is the Polynesian demigod of the wind and sea - hero of men. The islands and the colours pretty much give it away.

G6: *Maman Brigitte*
— Maman Brigette is always seen with a glass of pepper juice in her hands and a black CHICKEN by her side. As everything on the table represents death, it makes sense that she’s a goddess of death as she also loves things being dead rather than alive. She alike Baron Samedi LOVES to party, celebrate, drink and listen to music and dancing. The clues given by Lore Lady fits as she mentions every word with the celebration noise in the background seeing the chickens and colours representing them perfectly.

So that’s what I think of the Smite gods coming this year. I’m not 100% sure, but pretty confident.

Everyone's saying Lancelot for the new Arthurian god but I think that it's gonna be Gawain. Specifically because of the horse. Gawain's horse is named Gringolet, and has 4 lines in Gawain and the Green Knight dedicated to talking about his splendorous appearance. Gawain is also very attached to Gringolet, in one story in which Gringolet dies underneath him, Gawain goes on a blind fury until the fall of night. So yeah, I think it's actually gonna be Gawain and Gringolet.

Omg can't wait to see Fenrir after all these years

[austinkniga-bartlett]

End of Year Recap:
Shiva: Hindu Warrior
Yu Huang: Chinese Mage
Lancelot: Arthurian Assassin
Ishtar: Babylonian Hunter
Maui: Polynesian Guardian
Odin's Onslaught

[Random-ygfi]

For number 5 I’m thinking Odysseus. My reasoning is that it mentions the end of a war followed by tides to a desolate island and a hero rising. Sounds like what happened to Odysseus at the end of the Trojan war

[gertok]

Maui's VVGW better be "What can I say except you're welcome?"

[redmage]

Really hoping we get Maui, it would be so awesome. There's a reason he's nicknamed "Hawaiian Superman"

[notloc]

For the last one I'm in the line of thinking that it'll be Maman Brigitte for multiple reasons. Baron is a god of death and also resurrection and she says in between the call of revelry and you can hear cheering in the background, and Maman Brigitte is the consort of Baron there for if baron is there, she most likely would be too. There is also the chicken that falls onto the plate at the start of that section and Maman Brigitte is known for having a black rooster(a bit of a stretch I know) but it kind of fits. Second to last, When the view is going down the table there is a thing that looks to be full of peppers right beside a bottle of rum and she is said to drink rum infused with hot peppers(there are also other wine glasses around the table adding to my reasoning of thinking baron is involved). And finally, in a few depictions that I could find I've seen her holding a scepter/staff that has a skull on the top of it very similar to the skull with glowing eyes at the end.

I’d love for them to create “Audhumbla - The Cosmic Cow” from Norse mythology ❤️ Since they have created both Tiamat and Jörmungandr it would be possible… i hope 🤞❤️🤞

[masonsnouffer]

Well, it took longer than expected, but we finally got Maman Brigette! Finally.

[pikminguy]

Wait a minute the arrow god. "Arrows rain down from the heavens." I think...it might be Jumong! He is a legendary figure from both Korean mythology and history (like how Guan Yu is with China), who founded Korea, is known for his archery and is described as being the "Son of the heavens".

Oh gosh we might be getting a Korean Pantheon!

[ToaLegend]

I can't wait to play as the Round Table! It better be classed as a guardian

[jacobmisal]

My guesses: Shiva (confirmed)
Jade Emperor (all-but confirmed)
Gawain (the video shows a horse and references honor, Gawain is the most honorable of the round table and is known for his warhorse)
Arjuna (One of the most famous Hindu heroes, he was given a heavenly golden bow with infinite arrows, fits the golden, heaven, and rain of arrows motif in the video)
Maui: Islands, war, and she references “tides sun and sky” in that order, which could be a nod to the chorus of “you’re welcome” in Moana and Maui’s Lore
I’m thinking either voodoo or Celtic given the imagery. Damballa? The voodoo god associated with St. Patrick? Not sure

[Orrenn]

More knights is just fine in my book. We need at least 5 for the team!

If smite made a movie or series, I'd definitely watch it

[עומרשרייבר-לר]

So I guess we will get shiva, the jade emperor, lancelot, maui and not sure about the other two.

edit: You know now that I kinda think aboutthat maybe the last god could be a voodoo god, All the foods and decor on the table looked way more modern and voodoo by the standerts of other religions is not that old.

[unsaidexile]

so the sea and sky part is definitely Maui but I think the next bit of "the sun rises" is for another god, and the bird flying to the sun, burning and falling reminds me a lot of Icarus.

[Dracoriax]

I feel like everyone might be missing the woman at the beginning. She might be more than a MacGuffin for the plot and could be the Egyptian god of the night sky Nuit/Nut
