+Marcus Peters you realize these are not actual players, as fafnir isnt out yet, these are creators playing showing how he works, so the can do whatever they want
+DarkGaming15 I know maybe they can bring Sigurd in the game as a god and say they are just sworn enemies, but I think a Mayan or Hindu god is needed asap we have enough Norse gods at this point.
@@born-environment-0002HURRY BEFORE THEY TAKE OUR RICHES! THESE ALLIES MAY SEEM WORTHLESS BUT THEY WILL HELP BRING US GLORY!! I DON'T LIKE SURPRISES! WATCH OUT FOR THIEVES! EVERYONE YIELDS TO MY POWER!!!! NO NO I NEED MORE!!!!
He is overpowered. I went full magical power in a private match with him and he 1-2 hits people, he does 300+ dmg a tick with his poison with full magic, he could honestly just be a mage if he wanted. Inb4 people say it's impossible that I played him, there's Public Test Servers (PTS) where you can play patches before they come out.
He really isn't. He has low damage compared to other guardians and his only cc is his clear. Unlike Kumba or Ymir who both have an ability to clear and cc.
Ao Kuang would win. Fafnir is super vulnerable when he comes out of dragon form. He can't move for like 1-2 seconds, enough time for Ao to blow him up.
For those of you, who care, let meg add some details to the lore. First of all, as far as I know, the dwarfs didn't capture Odin and Loki, only took Odin's magical spear and Loki's magical shoes. Second, when Loki traveled for the gold, he caught a fish to eat it, and it turned out to be another dwarf called Andvari. He said to the dwarf: "I'll let you go, if you give me that much gold that I can hold". Since he's a god (Okay, jötün posing as a god), that was quite the amount of gold. And it wasn't cursed. You're not gonna believe it, but the treasure included a golden ring, which actually was cursed. Andvari warned Loki about the curse, but since he wasn't going to have it anyways, he just ran out of damn to give. So anyways he took the treasure to Hreidmar, and gave it to him, so the gods could get back their items. The golden ring of Sauro... I mean Advari was the reason Smau... I mean Fafnir killed his father, turned into a dragon and hoarded all the Dwarfes gold. Hope you foound it interesting.
are you kidding me? is this a joke? he has two forms of CC disarm and stun - his disarm is suprisingly hard to hit and his stun is a skillshot that rewards you with one of the smallest stuns in the game - he has cooldowns that and literally a quarter of a minute and he does fairly average damage. Fafnir needs a buff - or other gods need a nerf
couldn't agree more. Also Kumbha deals a total of 1200 damage with his whole kit late game with full tank items on VERY low CD. Try it! If fafnir gets nerfed. So should all the retarded Meta Tanks right now *cough cough*athena*cough(
Before you read this, I just want you to know that I am not a FNAF fan. But people like you keep calling 12-year olds autistic is just sad to me. Autism is a real problem in the real world, and it shouldn't be taken lightly. Please try to use other words. Thank you.
I can already see the nerfs, like they always do on Guardians: -Reduce the effects of the 2 -Increased cool downs on everything -Reduce the effect of cool downs -Decrease damage on everything Can't wait for him to become a useless as Xian Tian, or he will be nerfed on every update like Khepri. You know, it's not like there are gods like Loki and Scylla that can one shot most gods. No, let's just keep merging the class that barely has a gods in it, and can't do anything unless they have a team mate. It's not like we have gods that one shot like Loki or Scylla. Oh, wait......
First off. they have buffed Xian and he's ok now. Two: Kherpi is STILL top support after all the nerfs. Third: Loki is useless aside from casual pumbstomps and Scylla only works well if there's a team to set her up during the lane phase
Xing is cool again. I have no idea how people can still say Khepri is good. His early game is just awful now. I used to main him in S2, but when all the nerfs came around in S3, I just couldn't.
+Epic-Fran! I understand where you are coming from, but as someone who mains support, it's vey irritating to constantly have torero ink strategies and build because Guardians get nerfed into the ground, or are constantly changed. It gets ridiculous after a while.
As a sole Guardian player, it's good to see a character where I can effectively play better. With his stuns, buffs and nice damage, it's everything I could want. I don't normally buy characters when they come out because they are always 11,000 Favor but this will be an exception.
+Inconspicuous Username He has: a wave clearing stun, a buff that gives damage/as/healing, and a crippling gap closer plus the ulti which is just ridculous. I think you can call that broken. Hes supposed to be a guardian but he looks like a solo laner to me
Elias Max his clear is extremely bad in Solo lane. his heal is very minimal, and since you often see better healers int he solo lane, they can just stand by the melee minions, absorb the hammer and then he'll struggle against archers
This is... actually pretty accurate to Ring der Nebulungen, at least in spirit: Fafnir and Fasot, 2 giants who built Valhalla, steal Freya in payment, and won't except anything else except for the magic ring that Alberick made. Alberick curses the ring, Fafnir kills Fasot, and is unexplainably turned into a dragon by the next time we see him.
Metalks I mean, it's meant to be a buff in the form of an ultimate. If that was his regular form, he'd be pretty big for a regular god and the damage on everything would have to be reduced.
+Jorge R (YoosRNaym) Lol, well obviously it's a buff and not just a stance switch. But my point is that I want to play as a dragon. Not a noodle like Kukulkan, or a single ult like Ao Kuang, but a full classic dragon. Could have done something akin to fenrir instead where the character is already a beast and becomes even more beastly as an ult. After all, if he can go back and forth between dwarf and dragon, why shouldn't characters like Scylla? But I guess it's well known they go pretty fast and loose with the lore.
ahh so this is where smaug from the hobbit comes from lol tolkien is a pure genius man he must've really like the norse mythology and took fafnir as an inspiration for smaug
I'm actually really looking forward to this, I love playing as guardians so see someone new just makes it all the better. I just wonder what kinda skins he'll get
it wasn't cursed gold, it was a ring that produced more gold that was cursed when it was taken away by Loki, also, he was killed, by the legendary hero Sigurd. Sometimes i just wonder if hi-rez really has a fear of Edda.
7:42 almost half health > tanks ymir's fully charged ult + full duration of kukulkan's tornado and survives... wonder how much protections his passive give or what items he had at that point but that seems kinda crazy to me
now i aint sayin he a gold digger...
What what!
But he ain't messing with some feeding nigga.
But he ain't messing with no æsir
"there is no creature more greedy than a dwarf"
woah Lore Lady, that's racist
Dragon: hold my beer
Dragon dwarf : hold my beer
*Insert Cinemasins Ding Here*
Hold my dwarf
Dragon: bruh
I think the Guardians being so rare is what makes them always so special.
I love this being recommended to me in 2020, he’s only been out for 4 damn years at this point!
how do you think I feel

I noticed that too. Ne Zha never grew wings as far as I know.
lolz it is jing wei
+Marcus Peters you realize these are not actual players, as fafnir isnt out yet, these are creators playing showing how he works, so the can do whatever they want
This has got to be the coolest ultimate in the game
It's kind of a let down, TBH...
+Tomoko Kuroki Wait, what?
+Tomoko Kuroki u can go to ur otome world
so many dragon gods
the part of the lore that isn't mentioned is that Fafnir is eventually killed by Sigurd and his mighty blade gram.
I was thinking about that too, except how would we be playing a dead dragon in game :P. They changed it so he wasnt dead
+DarkGaming15 I know maybe they can bring Sigurd in the game as a god and say they are just sworn enemies, but I think a Mayan or Hindu god is needed asap we have enough Norse gods at this point.
+DarkGaming15 bakasura is dead but we can play him
+TheDeadwwe Ravana is dead too if I remember correctly.
Osiris? isnt he dead?
The combat tactics on this was amazing and perfectly explained I love it.
I see potential for a Wario skin. XD
YES!!!!!
mario skin when he ult he become wario
Mario skin for vamana hahahahahaha that would be awesome.
No when he ult he become Yoshi or Bowser.
Because we all know Nintendo will love that.
So a combination of Smaug and Thorin. Awesome ^^
so does that mean he dies in the first 5 mins of game 3
Smaug and Thorin were both actually based off Fafnir.
+Apex Konchu skillx
Smaug and Thorin are based ON Fafnir.
And Scrooge McDuck.
i can see him being a super annoying support
If by "annoying" you mean "overpowered", yes - I can see that as well.
Played the PTS, he's underperforming .
Right? That leap! What is that?!
Well I'll a support I think he is well made
that is what we call "OP as balls"
maybe his ultmate can kill the gold fury ironically
e era se assim fosse seria broken xD
That's... not ironic.
+Ricardo Martins q?
it will be his passive greedy to get more gold kill the dragon not the ultmate :D
He is Guardian hmmmm.
So I should play jung, solo and mid with him...
that's is precisely why we,support mains, hate other roles mains with a passion
xing tian cam solo
+Seraph Sephiroth can
He is EXACTLY my kind of god. This is the first god release I'm genuinely anticipating.
Still like him?

New favorite God, I love dragons
me too, old ao (kukul -.-) and new ao X, and now is time for the new main dragon :p
if only ao ult can move like thana.. fly like a real dragon !
Dragons are my favorite too....I don't think I can wait until they lower the price on him. Might buy him with my gems.
i have all the dragones másters X (Ao kuang kukulkan nuwa) i want This diamond too
try shyvana from lol .heuheuehuehe
This makes me so excited for future God releases if they already start doing stuff like this 10/10 Hi-Res
Gib me gems, I'm greedier than Fapnir :^)
Found duke
taylor bolan Crap my cover is blown
A little german came out (gib) ;)
FlyingAlpaca Nah, that's just a meme'd version of "give". Google "gib me".
: ^ )
Looks ridiculously overpowered.
Wait till he actually comes out and all his abilities do like 30 damage
All the bots their attacking have no items, Which means they die really fast, not actually going to deal that much damage in game
Double nope.
He's actually pretty balanced.
He is overpowered. I went full magical power in a private match with him and he 1-2 hits people, he does 300+ dmg a tick with his poison with full magic, he could honestly just be a mage if he wanted.
Inb4 people say it's impossible that I played him, there's Public Test Servers (PTS) where you can play patches before they come out.
He looks like Smaug from The Hobbit.
Of course, the series was inspired from Norse Mythology.
Best. Mythology. Ever.
I may be 4 years late but nah Greek is where its at 😂
That ultimate looks like it lasts a shockingly long time. I'm curious to see the actual numbers for it and his passive.
He seems ridiculously OP...like, even more than normal new gods lately.
He really isn't. He has low damage compared to other guardians and his only cc is his clear. Unlike Kumba or Ymir who both have an ability to clear and cc.
Can we have a Greek warrior please
Soon
who would it be though?
+Dilim Odinkaluu Achilles would be a cool warrior
or u know mayan wouldn't be bad either
+jesus perez Hera hopefully
Fafnir also has a thing for online games and trying to sell magical curses during conventions.
Hi-Rez: "Give me an OP God" *makes Susano* "another one" *makes Fafnir*
I was very happy to voice this Lord of Glittering Gold for you :-)
dragon motd?
ao kuang v fafnir instalock?
no cooldown on ults?
wait no cooldown at all? wouldnt Ao just juggle spam you to death? lol
steel16880 who cares two dragon god are fighting SPAM ALL THE ULTS
+MoonMoonFang and kuky
um yea no lol. wouldnt be fair if they had no cooldown on the ults dude lol
Ao Kuang would win. Fafnir is super vulnerable when he comes out of dragon form. He can't move for like 1-2 seconds, enough time for Ao to blow him up.
i was kind of hoping Nidhogg would make it in first. But still, glad we finally have a more proper dragon themed character.
I didn't know they would release Smaug.
its Fafnir.. not smaug. you arent funny
Next god is gonna be a hobbit for sure! Kappa
+Dagan damn dude calm the butthurt Smaug was influenced by fafnir
I believe we might see a bank robber skin for this guy.
This is the best tank!
fafnir was one of bosses from old game called Spellforce, that game was made over 10years ago dem memories rip
It's kind of ironic that Fafnir is a guardian
Fafnir does guard his treasure trove
This guy is a warrior. His damage output and his defense.
skin idea: Fafnir as a welsh rugby player and he transforms into the red dragon
“There is no creature more greedy than a dwarf”
Clearly she never met a zeus player
Whats that supposed to mean ._.
fafnir the lord of glittering wetdreams
This story of Fafnir is the origins Smug And in the story of Beowulf
Vamana's ult feels so useless now.
How so? Vamana gets huge damage reduction, Fafnir only gets extra effects on his attacks not damage reduction.
atleast vamana gain heal and stuff .. stats boost rather than fafnir skill boost
Also Fafnir can also be silenced, stunned, etc, while in Dragon form
Siranoid i guess u cant understand simple english.. he meant to get the enemy fack off.. cuz vamana ult + fatalis + regen = attack on titan
Siranoid i guess u cant understand simple english.. he meant to get the enemy fack off.. cuz vamana ult + fatalis + regen = attack on titan
I cannot wait to play this god. It makes it even better that final fantasy XII got announced today as well I've never been more excited for a god
oh does this remind me of the hobbit
Smaug was actually based on the original Norse lore of Fafnir, if I recall.
CarusioMystWolf that's actually kinda cool XD, makes you wanna know more about norse mythology
pennekamper1 XD
if THAT makes you want to know more about Norse mythology how about the fact that Loki gave birth to a horse
Android 19 ...loki is male right...?

Hope you foound it interesting.
That passive will get reworked. Calling it now
Yeah, way too OP. We get little gold per second for a reason.
+fireryash yeah, also the protections with how much gold you have just feels so weird and useless until late game imo, that's just me though.
Imagine during MOTD where we get 100k. He'll always have max protection.
and you were wrong
The greedy dwarf/ dragon that lives alone from thought of theifs is a support... well played.
He's going to get nerfed so hard
agreed😂
He is balanced , in the video he does damage to gods without items
Nah. He actually seems to be one of the more balanced releases they've had.
Try playing him.
are you kidding me? is this a joke? he has two forms of CC disarm and stun - his disarm is suprisingly hard to hit and his stun is a skillshot that rewards you with one of the smallest stuns in the game - he has cooldowns that and literally a quarter of a minute and he does fairly average damage. Fafnir needs a buff - or other gods need a nerf
+Scary Spider yeah now that I've played him he needs a buff
He looks like a good god. Lots of things that will work for him and others on his team.
Is the God reveal lady Colleen Clinkenbeard? I've always wondered
they call her lorelady cuz it's easier and yes, yes it is her
Faf's control is gonna be insane when built right. I might play Guardian now.
Another guardian perfect for the jungle
Swagni dashes past Fafnir and says "give me my money" lmao
Fafnir is a Guardian
Find out more in the Next Episode of Dragon ball Z :D
Yo, they better add a Godzilla skin for this dude. Like, what an opportunity! Who wouldn't wanna see a Godzilla run in from the jungle to support you?
Sobek Kaiju skin?
I swear if Fafnir gets a nerf, then Ymir and Area should get one too; they can dish out just as much damage.
ares and ymir don't be a debuff ROFL
Lol...area
I'm just saying. Both Ymir and Ares deal large amounts of damage for Guardians.
Well they A is literally right beside the S on the keyboard... not hard to hit the wrong key when typing fast, don't be a dickbag.
couldn't agree more.
Also Kumbha deals a total of 1200 damage with his whole kit late game with full tank items on VERY low CD. Try it!
If fafnir gets nerfed. So should all the retarded Meta Tanks right now *cough cough*athena*cough(
The ending was weird twist. The dragon seemed at peace but all of a sudden the Fire Nation attacked and he gets super powerful and pissed
I've already got leaked info on his first skin:
FNAF-nir - Lord of Autism
yes
That actually sounds really cool
Before you read this, I just want you to know that I am not a FNAF fan. But people like you keep calling 12-year olds autistic is just sad to me. Autism is a real problem in the real world, and it shouldn't be taken lightly. Please try to use other words. Thank you.

-Reduce the effects of the 2
-Increased cool downs on everything
-Reduce the effect of cool downs
-Decrease damage on everything
Can't wait for him to become a useless as Xian Tian, or he will be nerfed on every update like Khepri. You know, it's not like there are gods like Loki and Scylla that can one shot most gods. No, let's just keep merging the class that barely has a gods in it, and can't do anything unless they have a team mate. It's not like we have gods that one shot like Loki or Scylla. Oh, wait......
First off. they have buffed Xian and he's ok now.
Two: Kherpi is STILL top support after all the nerfs.
Third: Loki is useless aside from casual pumbstomps and Scylla only works well if there's a team to set her up during the lane phase
Scylla can do well in the laning phase with soul stone + red pot
Xing is cool again. I have no idea how people can still say Khepri is good. His early game is just awful now. I used to main him in S2, but when all the nerfs came around in S3, I just couldn't.

Elias Max
his clear is extremely bad in Solo lane. his heal is very minimal, and since you often see better healers int he solo lane, they can just stand by the melee minions, absorb the hammer and then he'll struggle against archers
Forget being a guardian he's going directly to solo with that kit.
WHY DAFUQ DOES UA-cam RECOMMEND ME THIS I DONT WATCH SMITE EVEN I DONT EVEN PLAY IT
Same here xDD
LOL SAME
Maybe because you watch others gameplays? That does it for me, but im happy, the recommendation made me play this game haha
Deniss Kirillovs i dont know i think if i watch only some videos of hitman podcasts football anime and a mobile game i wont get smite but i dont know
start playing smite then
So he's basically Smaug and Thorin Oakenshield? Cool.
smaug is actually based off of fafnir
Hirez pls nerf
A dwarf that's a dragon which inspired Smaug the terrible? Now that's a winning combo!
is this real? or not ... this is so broken
>Broken
>can tell this just by watching a video
Surely you jest?
He's actually not broken like you'd think people everyone playing on the PTS server say he's just
alright.
i think you should watch it again becuse he is broken ....just to remind you he is guardin and he dose that much damage
Those are against bots with no items, his damage isn't very good
this isnt broken at all
i think this god will be the motivation i need to come back and play smite again.
"Glittering gold" looks more like... sand and mud. =.=
The Devs said they were still working on the gold to make it more "Glittering"

that is some badass lore over there
As a player who uses kukulkan as his main have a dragon dwarf seems like a good second
Only Fafnir breaks the mold.
A Guardian with this amount of damage and control is scary. His kit is like a complete counter for Jing Wei.
Illyasviel von Einzbern She seems insanely easy to me.
Besides Ares, this god actually sparked my interest. Can't wait to actually try him out.
u guys did an amazing job on this god, Beautiful design!!
thanks for making this character, looks sweet!
Cabroken can officialy cry... This is our new ASC = Attack Support Carry
Guys he's freakin op. His dragon form doesn't last long at all and he stays there for a while to get bursts down. His damage isn't great as well
ahh so this is where smaug from the hobbit comes from lol
tolkien is a pure genius man he must've really like the norse mythology and took fafnir as an inspiration for smaug
Wow, they actually managed to get the video out BEFORE the god.
Since Fafnir is in the game. I suppose somewhere down the line they might introduce Sigurd.
yup, trust the god of trickery to get you things, good idea.
Well, now I think I've learned that the only thing that breaks in Hi-Rez games are their characters.
He's more of a warrior than a guardian, and would do excellent in the solo lane
I'm actually really looking forward to this, I love playing as guardians so see someone new just makes it all the better. I just wonder what kinda skins he'll get
it wasn't cursed gold, it was a ring that produced more gold that was cursed when it was taken away by Loki, also, he was killed, by the legendary hero Sigurd. Sometimes i just wonder if hi-rez really has a fear of Edda.
Tactics to play as Fafnir Step 1. Play as Fafnir. Step 2. Ignore everything. Step 3. Win.
I still can't believe the announcer lady is the voice of Erza.
Here I am just waiting for a Celtic Pantheon... I mean seriously, it NEEDS to happen.
Gotta love how everyone here is mentioning The Hobbit and Smaug when this stuff has been in popular stories for centuries
