Your bedtime has just been moved back , enjoy <| sep |> Oh there were certainly a couple of defence items that were buffed excessively see Bulwark , but I ' m not sure what you ' d call the little know ' health tree ' if not ' in the ground '. I think mantle was toted as being an excellent Loki counter in the early days , but when people got to terms with the effective cost and the fact that spirit robe is nearly always more effective I wouldn ' t say it was really a worthwhile counterpick . I don ' t think there ' s such a thing as a favourable meta for Loki with his current kit , but I think it ' s somewhat misleading to say things are bad for him when it ' s more rewarding to be a burstymobile character than it has been since the majority of the current playerbase started playing smite .
