The SMITE team is introducing a new skin, loading frame, and jump stance featuring none other than Bob Ross...yes, the "happy little trees®" dude. These items will be available for Sylvanus. Really, we can't make this up. To show off what it all will be like, do check out the video.

    I don't play SMITE, but I love Bob Ross! I didn't know "happy little trees" is a registered trademark. :P

    a little bit Offencive to see them do this

    Bob ross needs a little bit More respect then to Mock him like that

    Seems this Smite team has always been about Pushing the boundaries, I have quit smite after seeing them Mock Bob ross,
    I will never play smite again after this Mockery of such a Iconic Person

    Yeah, you could look at it that way, but it seems like he just as popular in death as he was in life. Bob Ross like other people that I will not mention has become nothing more than a meme. Avoid Twitch, if this offended you (I'm assuming that you're kidding though).

    Still, knowing the way Bob Ross was, I doubt he would have let something like this offend him.

    how is that even remotely offensive ?!

    it's a pretty funny and well thought out homage to an amazing artist.

    as usual with smite, their pop culture references and 'easter eggs' are on point.

    I have no artistic talent not even a little so admire people who do.

    Now i am sure that they have procured all the needed rights from the Ross estate and any production company involved.... Because there is no parody in that... nor is it transformative...

    But on the plus side it is only about the 12th lamest thing they have pulled...

    This have been a good conversation

    Does that look like a Happy Tree to you? Really?


    And Bob Ross was indeed amazing; well worth checking out one of his programs for anyone who hasn't seen one.

    When your game is dying so you gotta use memes and very obvious references to keep it alive.

    Yeah.. no. Just by checking steam stats (around 14k players per day) you will see that it's far from the truth. And.. those are just people who use steam, to my knowledge most smite players don't use steam to connect to servers so.. yeah...

    If anything is dying it's my faith in humanity - took me 2 min to check this info, how much of an asshole you have to be to just spout random crap without checking...

    Smite has grown massive.  It's huge.

    I couldn't have made this up if my life depended on it.

    I'll wait to the day's end when the moon is high
    And then I'll rise with the tide with a lust for life, I'll
    Amass an army, and we'll harness a horde
    And then we'll limp across the land until we stand at the shore
