Hun Batz is one of the playable Gods in SMITE.

Lore[]

A grudge, like any wound, left untended will fester.

Hun Batz and his twin brother Hun Chouen, led a contented life with their grandmother. Artists and musicians, everything they created was beautiful and enchanting, but they lacked their father's talent for the ball game, Pitz. Summoned to the underworld, their father, Hun Hunapu never returned. Instead his new offspring, half-brothers to Hun Batz and Hun Chauen, appeared. The Hero Twins were everything the original twins were not, strong, athletic, and clever. And they were extremely gifted at playing Pitz.

A jealous rivalry formed between the two sets of twins. The more they played ball together, the more Hun Batz and his brother were defeated. Eventually, the original twins resorted to foul tricks, aggressive tactics, and out-right cheating. Frustrated with these antics, the Hero Twins kicked the ball into a tree, knowing Hun Batz and his brother considered themselves excellent climbers and would go after it. Yet, the higher they climbed, the taller the tree grew, until they could not get back down. Pleased with their magic thus far, The Hero Twins encouraged Hun Batz and Hun Chouen to use their belts like tails in order to escape the terrible height. However, upon doing so, they were mysteriously and humiliatingly transformed into monkeys.

Though the Monkey Twins, as they are now called, came to be worshipped as Gods of Art and Music, the animosity they hold for the Hero Twins remains. Time has only sharpened their combined cunning, and they eagerly await a chance to strike back. Like any wound, their grudge has festered, and what was once a brotherly rivalry has grown into a far more deadly game.

Trivia[]

General[]

  • Hun Batz and Xbalanque are half-brothers.
  • Months before the current Sun Wukong was released, the original Sun Wukong went through a major revamp on June 20, 2013 that turned him into Hun Batz. After the revamp, Odin temporarily replaced him in the free starter character set until July 10, 2013.
  • Hun Batz, as Sun Wukong at the time, was one of the 9 playable gods in the Alpha build of SMITE's first presentation to the public at PAX Prime 2011.
  • Hun Batz, as Sun Wukong at the time, was one of the 17 playable gods in SMITE closed Beta.
  • Hun Batz was a free starter character for every new player account created before June 20, 2013.
  • The name and icon of Hun Batz's Ultimate, Fear No Evil, are both references to the Three Wise Monkeys.
  • His direct taunt to Scylla ▶️ "Don't you worry child, Xibalba has a plan for you!" is a reference to the song Don't You Worry Child by Calvin Harris. Xibalba is the Maya underworld.
  • His direct taunt to Chaac ▶️ "Should have bought beads, mon!" could be a reference to Purification Beads.
  • The actor who voiced Hun Batz, Brad M. Jackson, also voiced Bakasura, Death Machine Bakasura, Feaster Bunny Bakasura and Rage Bakasura.
  • Hun Batz taunts and jokes are old Maya Proverbs.
  • Hun Batz's dance emote is based on the dance known as, The Monkey.
