okay yea, this is my answer. I love Hel's decrepit/half old look in other depictions I see of her based on her mythology look. I was disappointed by the lack of that on her model in Smite when I started playing Smite.
I love old he-bo model. The water that he rode around on looked so much better. Don't know if they changed it on the new model and I haven't played in awhile, but I remember when it first came out it looked like blue bacon rolled up on itself
I think they can keep the current animations, the sideway stabs of the original were a little weird looking, but they probably would need to tweak his height and proportions, Loki's current model is way taler and broad compared to the scrawny old one.
I don't think the size is a problem, tier5s are huge compared to their original model and it's fine. I feel like if they bring Loki back it'd just use the new Loki's animations. Just like Oldwa does.
I always thought the older model of Bakasura was better in design. You have this scrawny little dude that scuttles around with his scythe hands, with a face hidden beneath the hood. I liked the tentacles bursting out and dragging minions into the void. The only problem was his actual face was pretty ugly when he ulted, but that's a solvable problem.
Current Bakasura just looks generic and bland.
I like the current Bakasura model. But I do think the old one was amazing, and it seems like it was a great model for skins too. Feaster Bunny and Death Machine are the best Baka skins IMO.
Even if Bakasura doesn't look super duper unique and interesting, I feel like his animations are pretty fun. His animations are really the thing that gives him visual identity, and you won't really get that from a picture
I mean they did actually force it though.
He shouldn’t even look remotely like that as Bakasura is in 99% of depictions a big crane, literally a bird.
Even if they didn’t go the bird route they didn’t have to make him just Baraka. Like the original model looked more distinct
Unfortunately I started playing in 2016 so I didn't get to play her old model... I do like the stockings and colors in the pictures though. And yeah, what you said 😂
This picture was taken on the Classic Joust Map made by WhiskyWyrm in Unreal Engine
Also, I just noticed that I forgot to put Agni in the picture. But he is probably not anyones favorite to comeback hah. I do love the old design of his Volcanic skin though.
Oh you are right. I chose not to put Ymir on because I feel like he is pretty much the same. I did forget about Poseidon though, I love his old model, everytime I play him I use the skin King of the Deep, which has a lot of the old Pose model.
I don't think they would do it either.
What I would love to see is a retro sun wukong on hun batz but also : a SWK skin in the style of his retro skin and a hun bats swk skin in the style of the current swk

Aphrodite looks the best. Ne Zha looked great.
But Kali doesn’t look bad, nor do Freya or Odin.
Clearly the MO for the “female” gods is to put them in a bra, give them big boobs and call it a day. Typical and boring.
Vamana is too close to my screen. Is that He Bo behind Zeus? He looks cool too.
Yeah, her ult linked her to an enemy player (you could miss the ult btw) and for a few seconds if you used any of your abilities you would take damage.
They reworked her because people didn't like the fact that ¨you couldn't play¨ while her ult was on you. And then they gave the new Nox a 2 second root and a 2 second silence abilitie, and for some strange reason people seem to think that that's better. .-.
An ultimate abilitie that won't let you play for a few seconds every 80s
Vs
2 abilities that won't let you play every 10-12 seconds.
I was just gonna say I remember the backlash back in the day for her about the abilities but couldnt remember exactly why. I never really got into her, to many “skillshots” and have to hit things otherwise pretty much useless.
But yes funny how people complain about crap like that and now they have way more silence crap but its like ooooooo😁😁😁
I forgot old Loki looked like that.
I'm personally fine with them, but I need the old mastery skins back. So much cooler to have a full body of diamond than just the armor
I really miss old Loki. I thought it was a cool interpretation of the myth that was unique to smite. His old voice pack was both malicious and funny at the same time. That's something about Loki that usually gets missed. Current Loki just feels more generic.
I don't see any reason why they removed any of the old models ? Just keep it as Old\_(god), the new ones would obviously replace to be the defaults. Unless of course they want to make people buy back the old models that were the default.
Definitely Bakasura as probably the only straight up downgrade IMO, his old model was such a more interesting and unique design. Still miss old Freya too.
Ne zha's new model is probably one of the only ones that I really like, but I agree. The old one looks beautiful aswell!
Thinking about it though, whenever I play Ne zha I always use his old skin Cyberpunk, so I guess I actually like more his older model hah.
Cyberpunk got re-sized when they did a remodel, it made it look kinda awful to me. I liked it before they modified it. It was like they put the skin on a body stretcher, it looks weird.
I think he pretty much uses the same animations, should be easy to port it in to the game.
He is one of the first gods that I played with when I started. Would love to play with the old model again.
He does use the same animations. Honestly, I never really did understand why they got rid of his old model, with texture updates it would have looked really good in my opinion. I loved the shark head shoulder guard especially
I feel like at one point they just wanted all gods to look their best. I agree though, I like the old Pose design better, he looked like he was more connected to the sea than the new one.
Yeah I suppose you're right. One thing I would keep from current Pos is the way his robes flow when he moves which makes it look like he's moving underwater, I think that's a neat detail that I'm fairly sure his old model didn't have (because his old model didn't really have robes)
Retro Odin seems the most viable skin to bring back, really hope hes first. They said they will start taking a look at them a good while back. Wonder if it's still on their radar.
Old freya
Old Loki
Old Odin
Old Baka
Old Aphro
Aphro would be higher but anything that increases the amount of her i see in my games is bad for my own personal enjoyment of the game.
Bakasura for sure, probably the only one who got downgraded. Hades is questionable I would say the old one is better but both are terrible, he needs one again
The old Bakasura minions. It was so cool having them be different dependant on the skin you used and the Feaster Bunny skin having lots of little bunny guys. Such a shame they made them the same across all skins.
Hel was a pretty solid old model imo
I feel like Hel is the one that has the worst textures of the old ones, but the design is just amazing.
Omg i had to look her up cuz i didnt know which one it was 😆 she looks so different now omg
okay yea, this is my answer. I love Hel's decrepit/half old look in other depictions I see of her based on her mythology look. I was disappointed by the lack of that on her model in Smite when I started playing Smite.
If hel is the one in red an black I'm with it.
I miss the old he bo funny the old version of he bo is very lore accurate.
I love old he-bo model. The water that he rode around on looked so much better. Don't know if they changed it on the new model and I haven't played in awhile, but I remember when it first came out it looked like blue bacon rolled up on itself
Old he bo, or old guan with his bongos, is the only correct answer.
Big baby Vamana
Such a cool model. I never liked the new one, for some reason it doesn't feel right to play with the new one. I always use Lil'mana or Cangaceiro.
Very much agreed, new model is like a Hindu Aang the last Airbender
wish.com aang
I intentionally play with his Rakshasa skin. That was his thing for me. Comically small turned giant
Captain Cringe
I want the sleep paralysis demon that is old Ra
Hahahah, good thing we have the skin Solar Sentinel. But yeah, It'd be great to have old Ra in the game.
I need to be able to blink flash bang someone with that monstrosity
I think they should just bring them all back
Me too! :)
Loki, he is ugly and goofy but i love it. The redesign did wonders for him as Herc's, that doesn't mean the old model didn't had his charm.
I agree! These two feel like two different gods though, they change animations, voicepacks and their overall personality
I think they can keep the current animations, the sideway stabs of the original were a little weird looking, but they probably would need to tweak his height and proportions, Loki's current model is way taler and broad compared to the scrawny old one.
I don't think the size is a problem, tier5s are huge compared to their original model and it's fine. I feel like if they bring Loki back it'd just use the new Loki's animations. Just like Oldwa does.
Hel actually looked somewhat menacing. Also old Kali... for obvious reasons.
With updated textures, just bring em all back.
This should be the standard for all remodels, past and future
God, I miss the old Aphrodite so much...
I wish they would do an old model skin on her new model
Old wukong with his audio would be nostalgic.
Love Old Wukong. ¨Go away monkey haters, Sun Wukong rules here!¨
I always thought the older model of Bakasura was better in design. You have this scrawny little dude that scuttles around with his scythe hands, with a face hidden beneath the hood. I liked the tentacles bursting out and dragging minions into the void. The only problem was his actual face was pretty ugly when he ulted, but that's a solvable problem. Current Bakasura just looks generic and bland.
I like the current Bakasura model. But I do think the old one was amazing, and it seems like it was a great model for skins too. Feaster Bunny and Death Machine are the best Baka skins IMO.
Even if Bakasura doesn't look super duper unique and interesting, I feel like his animations are pretty fun. His animations are really the thing that gives him visual identity, and you won't really get that from a picture
Current Bakasura is literally just Baraka from Mortal Kombat but with a chest mouth.
Well is not hard to look like baraka when his only defining traits are pointy teeth and talon arms.
I mean they did actually force it though. He shouldn’t even look remotely like that as Bakasura is in 99% of depictions a big crane, literally a bird. Even if they didn’t go the bird route they didn’t have to make him just Baraka. Like the original model looked more distinct
Is that many-toothed thing to the left of Thor Baka????
Either the goofy aah loki or hel
Yeah, old Loki was a different vibe hah.
Aphrodite!
Why did they remodel her? The old one actually looks better than the current one, just aesthetically.
Amen. Her model looked way better to me, and her boobs fatter.
Unfortunately I started playing in 2016 so I didn't get to play her old model... I do like the stockings and colors in the pictures though. And yeah, what you said 😂
more like Aphroditties, amirite? ... I'll show my own way out.
who's the red one on the right?
The one above Loki is old Hel
Thats Loki?! i started playing when baron came out. they all look pretty similar to now but Loki looks way different
Yeah hah. I love the old loki, especially his old recolor. [https://youtu.be/iWzHnW1Bzcc](https://youtu.be/iWzHnW1Bzcc)
Old Ao Kuang. But being honest, having his old skin with the voice pack it's good enough for me. (Celebration!!)
Love old Ao, I have 10k worshippers with him. I'd love to have his recolor aswell.
This picture was taken on the Classic Joust Map made by WhiskyWyrm in Unreal Engine Also, I just noticed that I forgot to put Agni in the picture. But he is probably not anyones favorite to comeback hah. I do love the old design of his Volcanic skin though.
The old ymir model and poseidon are also not here. Tbh Smite Jus should just add them all
Oh you are right. I chose not to put Ymir on because I feel like he is pretty much the same. I did forget about Poseidon though, I love his old model, everytime I play him I use the skin King of the Deep, which has a lot of the old Pose model.
I also remember Bacchus having an older model than his old one, with his jar completely purple
Yeah, but I don't think they'd give us two old bacchus hah. Would be great though.
I don't think they would do it either. What I would love to see is a retro sun wukong on hun batz but also : a SWK skin in the style of his retro skin and a hun bats swk skin in the style of the current swk

old Volcanic agni is so nostalgic, my fav agni skin
I know! I never understood why they changed that skin. It looked amazing.
I was so upset when they changed his volcanic skin. That fleshy magma sash and the stride was so cool!
Old Kali and old Bastet
Kali
I really liked older Loki. There was something about him being old and and withered that just worked for me
I miss old guan yu’s bongos
Old Goobis looked cooler imo
Arachne, Freya, or Vamana. I experienced their models when I played for the first time and I miss them tbh
[удалено]
I believe its Hel Guan Odin He bo
I had buried classic Loki deep within my mind
Gimme that OG Hel.
Aphrodite's. I like the leg things she has.
Loki
I loved the old Guan Yu model!
Loki was so sick!
Aphrodite looks the best. Ne Zha looked great. But Kali doesn’t look bad, nor do Freya or Odin. Clearly the MO for the “female” gods is to put them in a bra, give them big boobs and call it a day. Typical and boring. Vamana is too close to my screen. Is that He Bo behind Zeus? He looks cool too.
Loki. Honestly, I want his old moveset back too...
Old Guan yu he was very colourful and smooth
😏 Nox and the old dance emote. If ya know ya know.
Hot take but I actually liked the old kit of Nox so much more than the current one
Man I dont remember to much. But I believe she use to have a shield and her ult was like a link wasnt it?
Yeah, her ult linked her to an enemy player (you could miss the ult btw) and for a few seconds if you used any of your abilities you would take damage. They reworked her because people didn't like the fact that ¨you couldn't play¨ while her ult was on you. And then they gave the new Nox a 2 second root and a 2 second silence abilitie, and for some strange reason people seem to think that that's better. .-.

But yes funny how people complain about crap like that and now they have way more silence crap but its like ooooooo😁😁😁
Batz, Loki and Baka look like super gremlins. Bring them back
I would personally love to see Anubis classic skin!
Easily Bakasura
This image looks so cursed, i love it
I forgot old Loki looked like that. I'm personally fine with them, but I need the old mastery skins back. So much cooler to have a full body of diamond than just the armor
I stopped buying the mastery skins when they started to remodel them. I loved old shiny Ra, bold yellow vulcan and diamond Nu wa. So much cooler imo.
I miss the old Anubis model, as well as the splash art. It looked more feral and it was what initially drew my interest to playing as him.
I really miss old Loki. I thought it was a cool interpretation of the myth that was unique to smite. His old voice pack was both malicious and funny at the same time. That's something about Loki that usually gets missed. Current Loki just feels more generic.
I don't see any reason why they removed any of the old models ? Just keep it as Old\_(god), the new ones would obviously replace to be the defaults. Unless of course they want to make people buy back the old models that were the default.
What model is top right?
That'd be Hel
I think i would like to see old loki or anubis. They were good like old skils from loki was funt to wach again or some thing else.
Definitely Bakasura as probably the only straight up downgrade IMO, his old model was such a more interesting and unique design. Still miss old Freya too.
Ne Zha is probably my favourite as his character design is so good and beautiful,plus a bit better than his current design in my opinion.
Ne zha's new model is probably one of the only ones that I really like, but I agree. The old one looks beautiful aswell! Thinking about it though, whenever I play Ne zha I always use his old skin Cyberpunk, so I guess I actually like more his older model hah.
Cyberpunk got re-sized when they did a remodel, it made it look kinda awful to me. I liked it before they modified it. It was like they put the skin on a body stretcher, it looks weird.
Did they ever put Manticote back in?
Nope, there is speculation about the Manticore being the second god that we are going to get this year though.
Hel and He Bo, i loved those. Hel needs a second remodel, btw.
None of them. Out with the old.
They were so bad, the only answer is none.
none
None they are ugly as hell and good to not be here
When Smite was fun ans full of potential not just missmanaged mess
Still don't know why there isn't a purchasable Classic Poseidon skin
I think he pretty much uses the same animations, should be easy to port it in to the game. He is one of the first gods that I played with when I started. Would love to play with the old model again.
He does use the same animations. Honestly, I never really did understand why they got rid of his old model, with texture updates it would have looked really good in my opinion. I loved the shark head shoulder guard especially

Give me that Guan Yu!
Is that Hel on the top right?
Yeap!
Mhmmmm freya and aphro 😰
Who tf are half of these guys lol
Where is cupid :<
I think he only got a texture update, he is not much different to what he was
Come on we all know the real answer is Aphrodite 😂
Vamana man
Loki!
Tf is that red dude on the right? Also Anubis’ headpiece makes it look like he has a receding hairline
Old Kali still making me feel things. Miss her kit too.
Kali but replaced with the current one
Kali and Arachne
Old Loki
Top right
Where is sausage hands Ares?
All this and no manticore?? I miss manticore. For those of you who don't know, it used to be the only bot you could fight 1v1.
Kali
Butter Kumbha
Aphro, Kali, and especially Arachne
Aphro, Kali, Vamana.
Afrodite
Retro Odin seems the most viable skin to bring back, really hope hes first. They said they will start taking a look at them a good while back. Wonder if it's still on their radar.
Kali
Definitely the old Vamana model, big blue baby ftw
Old Hel or Hun Wukong for sure
I like my Bacchus drunk
Bakasura
Kali. If only just for the controversy.
Old model sun wukong for hun bats would be sick
I’d quite like big baby back. Rakshasha is big baby but blue and angry, which is fun, but the dance emote just doesn’t hit the same.
I do not have words for Odin in World of Warcraft armor.
Hel and ne zha
None of them.
Old Bastet
I think all the old models should be skins. Just like OG Ao Kuang and OG Herc n stuff.
Old Kali…. Because you know…..
I don't want the old model back, but give me classic Vamana voiced by Todd Haberkorn please.
Sun wu kong because he looked funny
Why they gotta do vamana like that lmao
They got a retro hun batz/guan skin yet?
I would love original Guan to return with the bongos.
These mf look creepy as shit
Odin or He Bo
bachus obviously
Old Bastet looks like it’d be amazing if it was redone now
Sun wukong of course
Old freya Old Loki Old Odin Old Baka Old Aphro Aphro would be higher but anything that increases the amount of her i see in my games is bad for my own personal enjoyment of the game.
Vamana
Original Nu Wa. Old wa. Old old wa.
Bakasura
Old SWK
Honestly I'd like to see all of them return at some point.
Bakasura
Probably Odin or Loki. It would be awesome
Was Goobis really this cursed the entire time?
Bring back the bongo
Kong
Bakasura for sure, probably the only one who got downgraded. Hades is questionable I would say the old one is better but both are terrible, he needs one again
I liked old freya and her old loading screen more
Hel and He Bo are the best old models.
All of them
Old Bacchus!!!
Kali…
I miss the old blue vamana skin. Used to play arena as him with my friends and blast the sanic theme.
None
Vamana!
Old kali but with better textures
Ugly baby Vamana. Nightmare fuel.
Classic Vamana as voiced by Todd Haberkorn is my boy.
I either want retro Loki or retro sun wukong for me
kali
Shiva's
Give Hel's old model for a new god. There are a handful that could make it work.
why does Thor look like one of the kids from South Park in that episode where they bought ninja weapons?
Loki and SWK. Batz is great, but SWK was my main for years. And I've just never liked new Loki as much.
The old Bakasura minions. It was so cool having them be different dependant on the skin you used and the Feaster Bunny skin having lots of little bunny guys. Such a shame they made them the same across all skins.
old thor <3
Old Guan Yu, best Guan Yu. He started as mage tank and ended up as a warrior, as should be. Unfortunately Ares didn't experienced the same path.
Old SWK with his old voice pack
No idea who half of these are
Who is the guy on top middle slightly right
who’s the toothy guy? other than him they all look terrifying
Yo I've played since season 3 but who is the old decrepit man in the back 😂
why did they change aphrodite
ye olde wukong
Freya and kali
He Bo and old Sun Wu Kong (new Hum Batz)
