Patch Notes 2024年6月27日

Introduction

Greetings Champions!

V0.19 is here and with it comes our latest defensive powerhouse of a Hero, Terra!

Terra excels at sticking around, shrugging off damage and crowd control effects like it's nothing, before hitting back seriously hard.

It's not just Terra in the spotlight this week though, as our stores are jam-packed full of savings thanks to our Summer Skin Sale (which handily coincides with Steam's own Summer Sale). On top of this our gameplay team have been ridiculously busy addressing a number of balance changes and tweaks following on from our previous major balance updates.

There's no major new features in this update, but Ranked Mode continues as ever each week with the current opening times being Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. This availability is being expanded each week, but keep an eye out for a separate blog discussing this topic and more later next week.

Now let's dive into this week's patch notes!
