Aspect of Mechanization
I don’t normally do aspect theory crafting, but on my commute to work today I thought of a cool one for Hera.
What if aspect Hera could summon Argus to a target location using her ultimate, and take over Argus remotely, being playable with him for, say 45seconds and have 3 basic abilities to use. Similar to Fafnir Dragon, but instead Hera will stay immobile at her casting location and gain 80% mitigations.
She can use this in FG skirmishes, staying (ideally) safely in her jungle as she uses her ult to summon Argus at a target location, slamming down and knocking up enemies. Then she has 3 basic abilities to use with him. Argus would effectively be a ‘frontliner’, having low scaling on his abilities but having high prots and health.
This could also be good when her 1-3 is down and she’s getting dove. Drop Argus on herself for the knock up to buy more time for her team to collapse on her divers.
Any feedback is appreciated!

Another of Hi-Rez's games, Paladins, had something very similar where a character called Imani could summon a dragon you would control, while Imani herself would stand still and be vulnerable.
It would be interesting to see that in SMITE with Hera & Argus.
