Is Tiamat OP?

[Ragnoraok]

I have been performing very well with the god, even in situations where I would have fed my brains out with other gods. I am almost always top damage even when I barely participate in team fights. Late game, I absolutely wreck any non-tanky god, when when I am behind in gold or levels. Seriously, after level 15, I can defeat any squishy or assassin.

3 people have told me that Tiamat is broken, but then again I have seen only 2 Tiamats in 30+ games, which is a pretty low occurrence for a supposedly broken god.

Also, when will Tiamat's stats be posted on SMite.gg?

i also use tiamat, honestly, i don't think she is op, on the strong side yes, but not op. the people just need to know how she works and they will know how to counter her.

As someone who recently got Diamond on her, no, she's not OP. Aside from the learning curve for her: I constantly have teammates that don't know you can stack jungle buffs by devouring one and picking another up, knowing the effects for her 4s abilities and how to use them and how you can feed on your own minions to get the hardened scales, she had a lot to know.

If you play her right, her crowd control can be strong, the right build and positioning can make her seen strong, but you have to be careful and pay attention to your own cool downs. Using her leap to chase or just stance switching at the wrong time is a death sentence.

Pre-5 you can get shut down by a pushing mage as Ra or Anubis and you're really vulnerable because of the long cooldown of your escape/stance switch. If you go solo instead with her it makes it tough, but not impossible against any type of God. Assassins can eat you for breakfast so need to play defensive in lane, warriors you can match but if they dive for you you need to back up in many cases.

You need those XP harpies add she gets very strong with each level.

So, I wouldn't consider her OP sure to how much you need to put into her.

I play Tiamat in the jungle where I make use of her ability to stack buffs. However, she works just as well in solo, and slightly worse in mid.

I rarely play defensively with Tiamat, besides pre-level 5, and even then thats if I am playing mid. I will 1v1 or even 1v2 at all times except if there is a hardcore tank as the opposition.

Her ability to burst people down is scary, especially with her interaction with staff of myrddin which essentially allows her to use 3 kits worth of abilities in a short amount of time.

My main gripe with her is that the tornado doesn't seem to be useful since enemy gods can outrun it, and even then it barely does that much damage.

That's why I like gem of isolation.

No, tiamat is one of the worst gods in smite as a mage.
