According to our data Serqet has gone up in win%, but only slightly, and has risen in play count significantly. We don't usually take day1 data too seriously though as its a small sample size and getting more matches often has a significant impact on the numbers.

For transparency:

Serqet's performance for Normal Conquest only, level 30+ only

Before Rebalance (9.2 bonus 2 weeks of data)

  • win% - #116

  • playcount - #105

After Rebalance (9.3 1 day of data)

  • win% - #109

  • playcount - #56

(#1 being the best/most played god in the game, #119 being the worst/least popular)

We will continue to run much more detailed data analysis in a few days/weeks and will be open to making further adjustments if necessary.

One of our primary goals for this rebalance was to decrease Serqet's SPL pick priority from #1 in the support role, which is not reflected in these casual charts. Ideally she is still a SPL support consideration, while also not being the most prioritized support in the league.

EDIT - OP linked ranked and I showed normal - this is because 1 day of ranked data is WAY too small to draw any conclusions, especially if you account for only plat+. However, even with clearly sketchy data shes not dead last in ranked in 9.3 in our charts.

Hey Ajax if you see this. one question I've always wondered in terms of the design team is how do you guys sort out role flex data. That is how do you tell what is like a Mulan or serqet support game vs solo or jungle when looking at data? Is it mainly items, starting role in menu, place on map etc?

we can filter all of our queries by what role people were assigned in the conquest pre-match lobby

so we can compare support serqet vs jungle serqet fairly easily, although sometimes we do run into issues with sample size - many gods show very high performance in random off role selections because only a few players who tend to be very dedicated and experienced play them there.

Yeah hearing "casual smite" in any sort of balancing/serious discussion is pretty funny.

i certainly encourage using those sort of sites to inform player discussions, they are often quite close to our internal data

this one is likely off only because of sample size
