Today Lzuruha officially announces it's Smite team for Season 3 coming up in 2016. The Smite Pro League will have have the same format as the Fall Split with 8 teams in each region competing over a number of weeks. The six Super Regional LAN teams in each region are automatically qualified into the first Pro League split of 2016. There will be relegations to determine the final 2 spots into the SMITE Pro League in 2016 and lastly the top Challenger Cup teams of the Fall Challenger Cup will be a part of the relegation process. Teams who can't attend the LANs will be able to participate in the Open Bracket tournaments early next year to qualify but enough of that! Let's get to know the Lzuruha Smite Members below and statement from the eSports Manager!
BelievenSteven's Statement:
We know what our situation is. The best teams in the world have already been established. They have been playing competitively since the game was in closed beta. We know we have an up hill battle ahead of us. The chances for us are very slim. No one expects anything out of us. But we have set goals for ourselves and we are on the road to achieving them much faster than i thought possible. We have the right kind of players and the right people backing us to get the job done and whether it's season 3 or season 4 or whenever. We will get it done. We're ready to represent Lzuruha Gaming well.
With our newly formed Smite team, Lzuruha, is going to bring results within the upcoming ladders.
With plenty of experience and dedication from our players in the smite/moba genre our roster is ready to make a mark.
As a team, we believe in synergy, and yet having a great time while playing.
Our boys are here to make a difference and win peoples hearts at home, and by the stage.
Be ready for some big plays and epic moments.
About:
I'm a high school graduate who has only lived in Illinois his entire life. I hate long walks on the beach because of my phobia of water. I exercise and play Smite a lot. I like to make people laugh. That's pretty much it.
Role:
ADC (All Damage Carry) My job is to basically not fall behind early so much that I cannot do any damage in the later stages of a game. I am also the team captain. Currently that means I schedule practices, scrimmages, and roster changes.
Favorite God:
Apollo. He's the has the most time of mine put into out of all the hunters and playing him just feels natural.
Least Favorite:
Any Assassin in the game. It's like a different language.
Favorite Mode:
Conquest League. It has the most gratification when you win and is the most planned out structured game mode.

BaRRaCCuDDa my favorite smite player. Got me into the game.
My family for accepting that I want to put so much time into this game & supporting that this is how I wanna make my living.
My little Brother Dakota, the person I care about most in the world. Little bro I told you that all that you gotta do is Find something you love and work hard at it and everything will turn out alright. Lastly I know it's cheesy but a shout out to LzH for believing in this rag tag band of misfit smite players. We're really pumped and ready to prove ourselves to you guys.

Favorite Mode:
Arena (Steven don't kill me). This was my favorite mode when I started out because it helped me with team fighting and was easy to understand as a beginner. I have logged 200+ Arena games and it gives more freedom to do what i want than conquest.

Not familiar with Smite?
The game features many different game modes, with the most popular being Conquest. Players are formed into two teams, with three to five players to each team. All players begin at opposite sides of a map at their team's 'fountain'. Before the players enter the map, they are granted an amount of gold (usually 1,500) to buy starting items. These items grant special bonuses or abilities that enhance the player's god. There are one to three continuous 'lanes' running from one side of the map to the other. Each lane is defended by a 'Phoenix' which is accompanied by a pair of extra defensive towers. Phoenixes and towers deal a large amount of damage to any enemies that come too close. The goal of each game is to destroy the opposing team's Phoenixes and the Titan, a giant warrior who must be defeated to win the game. The players are accompanied by 'minions', small soldiers with a weak attack; these minions spawn at the Phoenixes every thirty seconds and run along their lane until they meet opposition and attack immediately. Minions will attack not only players and other minions but also towers, Phoenixes and the Titan; in fact, their presence is required for players to deal full damage to these objectives. Defensive positions will prioritize enemy minions over players, allowing players to attack a tower without receiving damage; however, towers will fire upon players if there are no minions nearby or the player attacks an enemy player under their tower.
