For this winter, an event that could happen is the "Cold and Ice Festival," with a focus on Chinese elements.
The story would take place at a time when the SMITE world is on the brink of a crisis because Xuanwu, the black turtle of the north, has been kidnapped from its post and the world is freezing rapidly. To protect the SMITE world, a portal is opened to another dimension to summon Bing Shen, the god of cold and ice from the Chinese world, to start a pilgrimage through the battlefields to find the divine being.
Themed clothing for icy environments would be super welcome, like fire dragon skins.
For the event, there could be a 5v5 mode on the back of the black turtle, where every minute, a storm could appear, creating traps that freeze anyone who steps on them. Victory would go to whoever completes the objective, which is to find the black turtle.
