** Charybdis' reveal trailer. It's meant to be threatening, with Charybdis coming out of a whirlpool and killing a bunch of Greek soldiers before Bellona pulls a BigDamnHeroes to protect one of the survivors. However, considering Charybdis' appearance, the execution ends up being "A young girl with a lot of daggers jumps out of a whirlpool". Just try to imagine the survivors describing who killed most of their soldiers with a straight face.

** Back then, the old version of Sun Wukong was considered overpowered, due to his solid movement speed passive, amazing mobility (from his 1st ability) and solid CC. His 3rd ability even managed to bounce back and forth on the same target(s), and overall he had very solid damage due to that in tandem with his other attacks. His passive allowed him to clear parts of the jungle at nearly any speed due to his powerful roaming, allowing him to gank very effectively. Of course, as soon as Wukong's old version was reworked into Hun Batz, he's been in a balanced spot nowadays.
** Khepri is often considered one of the scariest guardians to confront in the game with his surprisingly good damage output and just how much he can help his team. His passive ability places a little shield around himself and allies, already making himself and his team harder to kill if they make sure to stay close to him. His grab comes quickly, drags someone for a while, and can do extra damage if Khepri has the Mystical Mail which deals damage to everyone near Khepri. His grab also works super well with his stun, which has a great amount of range. The sun he can throw synchs well with both of his previous abilities, can do some good damage, and can further buff Allie’s if they touch it. Finally Khepri's ult allows him to revive an ally with half health whilst bringing them over to him, so unless Khepri is himself surrounded by enemies there is a good chance that person is going to run away and heal up safely.
** Kumbhakarna is a feared guardian for his insane crowd control, being able to shut down an entire team for more than a second with just his yawn alone if he can get close enough. His club has a big wind up, but makes up for sheer range and surprisingly good damage, both skills combined with a dash makes him incredibly good at both chasing and shutting down chasers. His ult where he knocks someone into the sky is also great for finishing off a low HP target or for kicking a bothersome opponent out of a team fight so you can get their teammates; Hel can’t heal anyone and Khepri can’t grab or revive anyone while 100 feet in the air.

** Ravana was often seen as the worst God in the game for a while. Overall his abilities were outlcassed by other gods and it was hard to justify picking him. You want a good chaser? Go pick Guan Yu. Want someone with good health drain? Go pick any Hunter or Assassin. His ultimate in particular was quite disliked for essentially being a glorified catch-up tool with little offensive power. He did eventually become the focus of a minor rework in which his passive and his ultimate were changed around to be much more generally useful, along with rather heavy buffs all around. He was later reworked again and his role changed from a Warrior to an Assassin, which further got him more love and these days he is considered a pretty solid character.
** Nox is appreciated mostly on her lore and MILF design, but her gameplay? It is divisive at best. She can be a terror for new players, but is ultimately a CrutchCharacter. On release she was extremely weak, her main skill rooted both her and her target, the delay on her burst made it easy to dodge, her silence wasn't nearly as long as it needed to be, and her ultimate was, at the best of times confusing, and at the worst of times completely irrelevant. Even her passive was awful because it required her to be hit, and she's not nearly as tanky a mage as Zhong Kui or Raijin. Even after her rework she remains one of the least played gods in the game because she's just overshadowed by everyone else, being only really good in Arena and Assault.
** When Xing Tian debuted, he was a really terrifying Guardian, shit-ton of sustain, percentage HP damage, root, mobility and an instantaneous crowd control ultimate that can send numerous players to unwanted position. Realizing this, Hi-Rez then nerfed Xing Tian horribly, exchanging his root with a slow, lowering his nuke damage output, and giving his ultimate more and more windup time that makes it more projected and easier to dodge, to the point of people claiming he's really unplayable. Pretty much the Smite equivalent of [[Memes/LeagueOfLegends getting Olaf'd in League of Legends. Bonus points for also wielding axes.]] A healthy amount of buffs has fixed this, he is still one of the less played guardians but is now considered DifficultButAwesome rather than useless.
** Odin has received a lot of buffs over the years, but is still often seen as a contender for being one of the worst gods in the game. The burst damage of his leap is incredible and infamous, but otherwise his kit is unremarkable. His leap doing so much damage is also a double-edged sword as it is his only method of escaping, so use it at the wrong time and you are done for no matter how much damage you do. His ultimate ability which incases enemies in a cage of spears sounds good on paper, but it does no damage and can’t stop enemies from leaping out of it, so Odin absolutely needs allies to help him kill the enemy.

** Cupid is the token 'cute and irritating' character of the game (similar to [[VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends League's Teemo]]), where the combination of him being a DemonicSpider to those who face him, he has a very unorthodox design of being a chubby cartoonish toddler (yes, it makes sense about the Roman Cupid, but it's still going to irk many player who wished it was the more adult Eros instead...) and of course, very CuteButCacophonic voice. He also has A LOT of skins and extra voices, meaning many ways to grate your ears. It also throws a monkey wrench for people wishing for the addition of Psyche, because her love story fits better if it's with Eros, but Cupid being the toddler version will make that pairing very {{Squicky}} or dooms Psyche to be designed as a toddler as well, which is also another can of worms. Hi-Rez showing no intention to remodel Cupid despite other older Gods being remodeled here and there is also a sore point.

** The end of 2022 throws a monkey wrench on the datamining expectation. It was formerly speculated that the last deity for 2022 would be Maman Brigitte of the Voodoo pantheon based on the hints on the previews. However, she never got released, and the next deity after Maui turns out to be... [[AscendedExtra that Fire Giant you fought many times for buffs, Surtr]].

** While he is a franchise regular, [[Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles Slash]] wasn't on most people's radar to be featured as a skin. Many assumed that, after the Turtles, Splinter, Shredder, and Krang, the next ''TMNT'' skin would've been of a more prominent character in the franchise, such as Casey Jones or Karai.

** He Bo's change into "Huh Bwah" has some people enraged that they changed a [[ShownTheirWork lore accurate god]] into something that isn't [[CriticalResearchFailure anything close to the lore]] while others don't really care about lore accuracy and are just glad he looks polished. The irony? Tencent, a Chinese company, ordered the change. There's no real reason given for the change, but speculation and hearsay points to issue being taken with him being a [[AmericansHateTingle stereotypically wise old man]], or complaining that he didn't look as badass as the other gods, leading to them breaking the stereotype (and making him lore inaccurate as well), making him [[HotterAndSexier younger, with an exposed chest]] and [[WTHCostumingDepartment big spiky hand thingies]].

* WereStillRelevantDammit: Such Cold Skadi, AKA Doge Skadi. A Skadi skin parodying the Doge meme. Released in ''2017''. A good four years after the meme's apex of popularity. It was ''roundly'' mocked by basically the entire internet. [[HilariousInHindsight The meme has since exploded in popularity again, however.]]
