Nemesis slices and dices her way onto the Battleground of the gods in SMITE

New patch for SMITE this week and with it comes Nemesis, the goddess of revenge. Nemesis also holds the honor of being the first female melee warrior added to the game, which i'm extremely excited about since I love playing melee characters.

As a warrior, most of her abilities use her sword. Nemesis has the ability to dash in a line, and dash back if she hits an enemy along with the ability to shield herself from incoming attacks. 

• New God: Nemesis
  SCALES OF FATE (Passive)
  Nemesis holds the scales of balance. Hitting enemies with basic attacks tips the scales in her favor, reducing her target’s physical and magical power and increasing hers (stacking). Power Gain: 5% per hit. Power Loss: 5% per hit. Max Stacks: 3.
• SWIFT VENGEANCE
  Nemesis dashes in a line, dealing damage to enemies in her path and may dash again within 2s. Using another ability during this time cancels the second dash. Damage: 50/80/110/140/170 (+50% of your physical power). Cost: 50/60/70/80/90. Cooldown: 14s.
• SLICE AND DICE
  Nemesis swings her blade, dealing damage in an area in front of her. Enemies in the center of her swing are struck for 2x damage and slowed for 2s. Damage: 40/65/90/115/140 (+50% of your physical power). Slow: 50%. Cost: 60/65/70/75/80. Cooldown: 7s.
• RETRIBUTION
  Nemesis activates a temporary shield around herself that protects her from all incoming damage for a duration. Nemesis heals for a percentage of damage that was mitigated and a percentage of any damage received from gods and minions while the shield is active is reflected back to the source (pre-mitigation). Hard crowd control effects remove the shield once applied. Damage Reflect: 30/35/40/45/50% of damage received. Healing: 30/35/40/45/50% of damage received. Duration: 1s. Cost: 60/65/70/75/80. Cooldown: 12s.
• DIVINE JUDGEMENT
  Nemesis chooses a single enemy god, reducing their health and movement speed and stealing a portion of their protections for a time period. Her movement speed is also increased during this time. Damage: 30/35/40/45/50% of current HP. Protections: 30/35/40/45/50%. Move Speed: 30/35/40/45/50%. Target Default Duration: 5s. Nemesis Buff Duration: 10s: Cost: 90/95/100/105/110. Cooldown: 90s.

Also in the patch is the Red Star Athena skin. If you buy the Red Star Athena skin, you will receive the Winter Olympian Athena Skin for free but that deal only lasts until February 24th. In other skin news, the Obsidian Shard Ymir skin has gotten a FX Update, Nu Wa gets her golden skin and all other golden skins get a color reworking.
