As a Shiva worshipper and Indian Hindu, this is one of, if not, the best portrayals of Shiva I have ever seen. His voice actor is perfect and his design is incredible.

i LOOOOVE gods who look powerful without looking angry or stern. He just looks like hes havin a good time but could still absolutely do a lil dancy dance and destroy a planet

[AoNejii]

Shiva is absolutely freaking gorgeous! The visual and sound effects are so well made. You rock SMITE devs!⚡💛

[solidskullz]

I’ve already got ptsd from him in shin megami tensei 5 but I’m glad to see him in smite. He’s one of the greatest and most worshiped gods in Hinduism and definitely deserves a spot

[Jormyyy]

I still genuinely think Shiva is one of if not the best designed character in all it Smite, in terms of thematic and visual appearance, and the sheer amount of extra thought and attention to detail put into his conceptualization.

Shiva looks astonishing…….
Great detailing, , , , character visualization and story…..
Keep up the good work smite team..

I havent played smite in years but damn this God’s reveal video is so badass! So elegant and respected by the other Gods even tiamat had to put her anger away

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

After using him for a full day yesterday, i can say that this god is extremely fun, literally unstoppable in his ultimate especially when a cthulhu runs alongside you

My Favourite God. Would have loved to see the Shiva's Third Eye opening ability; which can destroy any enemy infront of him.

[PR-xmzc]

It would be cool to see more god abilities synergy between gods of the same pantheon

[GauthamKrishnan]

The Third eye opening would have been a great addition to God Shiva. In mythology it turns enemies into ashes. Although for sure that would take the fun out of game.

The game design looks wonderful!

I could easily watch a show that was animated like these cinematics. So well done

[DeAwaited]

He seems quite well balanced, but I feel like his 3rd eye should have been incorporated into the game somehow. Either as a passive, or ability, or even an ultimate. Still seems like a good character nonetheless

[Calaman]

Thank you lore lady! I am listening your god introductions since 2013 :)

Fun fact, in Hindu mythology, Ganesha is Shiva's son. Parvati is Ganesha's mother and Shiva's wife. One day, Parvati asked Ganesh to guard her while she was taking a bath. Shiva was out doing stuff and came back to parvati to see her but Ganesha was in the way and wouldn't let him through to see Parvati. In a fit of rage, Shiva cut Ganesha's head off. This made parvati very angry and upset so Shiva went out and obtained the head of an elephant and put it on Ganesh. That's why Ganesha has an Elephant head. I believe there are other interpretations too
(This is what I've heard in YouTube videos and websites about this Hindu lore, if I got any of this lore wrong than excuse my ignorance and feel free to correct me.)

He has a great design. I actually don't like the passive on him, the rest of the abilities are great. To me that passive seems like it would have been better on a stance-switcher where you have more control on the added effects rather than having a gauge that you have to manage and possible lose any advantage mid fight. Its not bad but it seems more geared toward upper levels of play.

[メシャ]

I don't even play Smite but DAMN!!
The cutscene was BEAUTIFUL, and the design and references have so much care put into them!

[nutsinbutts]

He is an Indian God. We Indians worship him and have statues all around our country. Glad to see a God in a game.

[nikoadamia]

If he had third eye ability in game then I think that it would be same type as thanatos's ultimate that executes enemies. Difference is that, instead of killing them, it turns them into ashes like how Medusa turns enemies into stone when she kills them with her ultimate.

[THENEWKING.]

WHAT A GREAT DESIGN!!! THE GOD LOOKS SO GODLY!!!! HATS FOR THE ART DESIGNER & VISUALS!!!
EDIT: lord Shiva is Supereme God within Hinduism!! And God of Creation and Destruction!!! The Omnipotent God ! FELT GOOD that smite didn't hurt Hindu sentiments!! Take it As a game play and Enjoy Smite!!! Thanks for the Like guys!! And please don't make comment section A Showdown!!
