the only way to counter a Guan is to 5 v 1 him & have everyone land their ultimate abilities.

I have been playin Smite for a good bit now. The enemy team has a Guan Yu each and every match, typical noobrush for the new toon. During these matches I have seen varying degrees of  styles with Guan Yu.

 

A couple things I have noticed about him:

1.    I have seen him walk out of a 5v1 seemingly unharmed at all

2.    He does not appear to need to aim anything, just click and be near you he will hit you.

3.    His attacks seemed to have a very long range, it is all but impossible to escape him, I have tried ziggging, zagging, figure eights, blinking, loop d loos, upside downs, inside outs...........he will always hit you and be right there full health.

 

While i am thinking of it, I played as Bastet against a few Guan Yu's. I tried this very specifically for Guan Yu with Bastet, blink forward from the jungle, run like hell for 3 seconds with Guan Yu hitting me every step, blink back to the spot i blinked forward from in the jungle. Guan Yu was right there. still hitting me. Now I had covered a good distance before blinking back, how was this turd right there as i popped back to the jungle, shrouded from sight? Something is definitely not right with him. Goddamn ninja samurai.................

This is totally untrue.

1. Unless it was a Guan that was many levels ahead. 5v1 would beat any good, healing abilties or not.

2. You have to aim. Especially with his Ult, because he jumps around, and it is a V shaped ability. You have to move your toon in the right position each jump, and there's three. It's not totally impossible to miss some of it. Lastly, his ability to jump forward has to be aligned correctly or it will miss as will any character that has a similar ability.

3. His attacks are SHORT. The blue guide you see when  you launch abilities is the shortest of any god I have played. Both his mid abilities only extend about his height in front of him. I will say that you can get some distance with the ult, since like I said you can jump forwards with it. It's a perfect finisher.

I like him, and yes he's a little overpowered, but I think the best way to counter a Guan is to keep yourself at a distance. lol

GUAN YU  IS THE MOST  EPIC OP HERO/GOD/WHATEVER IN THE HISTORY OF MOBAS.

IF THIS IS HIGH RES' TACTICS THEN I AM AFRAID THIS GAME WILL FAIL.

This God is actually so OP i know people lauch their asses of their chair when they see how they die...

I also stopped playing SMITE eventhough i loved it because of this GOD....

Last drop was me playing YMIR vs a GUAN .

Threw him 3 Glacial Strikes, 1 WHOLE ULTI up his ass, 15 skill hits and a whole bunch of creeps on his ass and his health stayed at HALF . And the most funny part..he didnt even heal!!!!
