A fan and his girlfriend competed against each other in a trivia quiz at the SMITE World Championships. In this, he surprises her with a marriage proposal – quite casually.
So the marriage proposal went down: SMITE fan Matt competed in a trivia quiz against his girlfriend Laura. During the first two rounds, Laura was leading 2 to 0 and was seemingly confident about answering the third question correctly.
However, instead of being asked a question about SMITE, all that echoed in the arena was: “Laura, will you marry me?” Laura seemingly didn’t register the question until the host Hinduman asked her: “Who is Laura? Oh, you’re that one?”
Laura then responds in disbelief and the audience goes wild. Everyone cheers, Matt gets down on one knee and offers her a ring. Laura accepts the marriage proposal.
Excited, Hinduman jumps across the stage and announces: “She said yes! Thank goodness, that could have been really awkward. Congratulations!”

How does the quiz work? In the trivia quiz, participants are typically played sound effects from the MOBA SMITE that they must guess correctly. Anyone who guesses right gets a point.
Instead of the last effect, however, “the one question” was asked – and apparently Laura managed to answer this correctly as well.
What kind of tournament is this? The SMITE World Championship 2020 is a tournament hosted by the developers Hi-Rez, where the best teams in the world compete against each other.
The tournament takes place as part of the Hi-Rez Expo 2019, which you can watch live with us. The prize pool is one million dollars.
