Anand

From The Designers

The [Creation Camp] has been well-received since its release. We're overjoyed to see that many of you are interested in designing your own games. Starting from this patch, we'll strive to release more customizable content for you to add to your custom games and hope you can continue to send us your comments and suggestions. Let's work together for the goal of creating the Super Fun Gameplay!

I. Hero Adjustments

The following uses (↑) (↓) (~) to indicate Buff, Nerf, and Adjustment.

[Revamped Akai] (~)

We're optimizing Akai's Ultimate to make it more interesting while also giving his enemies more room to react.

[Ultimate] (~)
Enemies knocked back by the skill will now knock back other enemies they come into contact with during the process, while the knockback duration and distance are reduced.

[Wanwan] (↑)

Experimental Adjustments: Wanwan has been many players' favorite thanks to her fun skill mechanics, but the casting difficulty of her Ultimate, Crossbow of Tang, may have been a bit too high all this time. In this patch, we're lowering the casting difficulty in hopes of letting more players better experience her charm. A few value adjustments will also be applied to keep her around the balance line.
