Hero Adjustments
From the Designers
In this patch, we've improved the Move and Attack control experience. It now feels smoother to Move and Attack with the same DPS.
Because it increases the late-game damage of Basic Attack heroes, we have nerfed some equipment and Battle Spells that boost Attack Speed.
Meanwhile, we've adjusted the attributes of most Marksmen to match their strength (e.g., higher early-game Attack and lower HP) to bridge their gap during early-game 1v1 fights.
We've also made adjustments to some Exp Laners to give them a chance against Fighters with War Axe.
New & Revamped Heroes
[New Hero: Chip, Phase Technician]
Hero Feature: A Support/Tank hero who can use portals to roam the battlefield and support his allies.
Chip is a carefree, genetically enhanced fox from Laboratory 1718. He got his name from his love of snacking on chips while lying on his hovercraft.
Chip is a Support/Tank hero. He can utilize his hovercraft to teleport around (and to slack off). His Special Skill allows him to quickly traverse the map, and his Ultimate allows him to gather all his teammates in one spot.
[Passive: Snack Time!]
Chip starts eating potato chips when out of combat, regenerating lost HP after finishing a whole bag.
[Skill 1: Crash Course]
Chip rams his hovercraft into the ground, dealing damage and applying marks on enemy heroes while gaining a shield.
Chip's next Basic Attack will become ranged, hitting all nearby enemies with marks and stunning them.
[Skill 2: Overtime]
Chip rushes forward, gaining increased Movement Speed and causing his next Basic Attack to charge at the target, dealing damage and knocking them back.
[Ultimate: Shortcut]
Chip drops the Main Portal on an enemy hero, and also creates Connecting Portals near allied heroes and behind the allied Base.
Connecting Portal: Heroes can teleport from Connecting Portals to the Main Portal and gain Burst Movement Speed, or stand on the Main Portal for a period of time to return to the Connecting Portal they came from.
Main Portal: Deals damage to nearby targets after a delay and slows them. Main Portal inherits a portion of Chip's Attributes.
[Special Skill: Why Walk?]
Chip has 4 Beacons on the map.
Chip can stand on a Beacon to enable this skill and then use it to teleport to any other Beacon.
Hero Adjustments
The following heroes have been adjusted in this patch: Masha (↑), Silvanna (↑), Layla (~), Miya (~), Natan (↓).
The following uses (↑) (↓) (~) to indicate Buff, Nerf, and Adjustment.
[Masha] (↑)
We want Masha to be the one leading the charge and bravely fighting in a crowd, while maintaining her role as a Tank, Fighter, or DPS Berserker. In this patch, we've removed Masha's passive that doesn't grant Defense. Now she will enhance herself each time she loses an HP bar and reset her Ultimate for her to spam skills. We also optimized her Energy Regen experience, granting her better control over her HP.
[Passive]
When Masha only has two HP bars left, skills will only require half of their original HP Cost to cast. When Masha only has one HP bar left, she doesn't need to spend HP to cast skills.
[Skill 1]
Passive: Masha gains Power of the Wild which causes her Basic Attacks to deal extra Physical Damage equal to a percentage of the enemy's Max HP.
Active: Masha spends some HP to increase her Movement and Attack Speed, enhance the next two Basic Attacks, increase the extra damage from Power of the Wild, and gain extra Energy.
[Skill 2]
Masha spends some HP to roar at enemies, dealing Physical Damage and reducing their Attack Speed.
[Ultimate]
Masha spends some HP to lunge at an enemy hero (immune to control effects during the lunge), dealing Physical Damage, slowing them, and knocking back nearby enemies. The cooldown of this skill will be reset each time Masha loses an HP bar.
[Special Skill] (↑)
Masha gains Energy when dealing damage and can accumulate up to 100. She gains a great amount of Energy when hitting with her Skill 1. After leaving combat for 3s, Masha can spend 50 Energy to recover a full HP bar.
[Silvanna] (↑)
We've simplified Silvanna's Skill 1 to make it easier to stun enemies, while reducing her Skill 2's cooldown and increasing the Shield to keep her momentum in case her Skill 2 gets interrupted.
[Skill 1] (~)
Skill Revamp: It now has only one stage where she dashes in the target direction, dealing damage to nearby enemies and stunning them. The dash distance is reduced.
Cooldown: 12-9s >> 11-9s
[Skill 2] (↑)
Base Shield: 250-400 >> 350-500
Cooldown: 9-7s, upon skill casting >> 5.5-4.5s, after the skill ends
[Paquito] (↑)
Slightly increased his early-game damage to make him more competitive against other Fighters.
[Skill 2] (↑)
Base Damage: 150-450 >> 200-450
Champ Stance's Base Damage: 250-750 >> 350-750
[Layla] (~)
Due to her Passive, Layla can only deal a lot of damage to enemies from a distance, but her lack of mobility makes it difficult for her to get away from enemies. So we'll lower the damage bonus and increase her attack instead.
[Attributes] (↑)
Base Physical Attack: 125 >> 133
Physical Attack Growth: 7.5 >> 10
Base HP: 2500 >> 2250
HP Growth: 133.5 >> 152
[Passive] (↓)
Max Damage Increase: 130% >> 115%
[Miya] (~)
Miya is too weak in early-game 1v1 fights, so we want to increase her Skill 2 hit rate and balance her early and late game damage.
[Attributes] (~)
Base Physical Attack: 100 >> 115
Physical Attack Growth: 14 >> 10
Base HP: 2524 >> 2225
HP Growth: 138.5 >> 153
[Skill 2] (↑)
Base Damage: 90-240 >> 270-420
Reduced delay time by 25%.
[Natan] (↓)
Natan is too powerful with the new Radiant Armor, so we've lowered his late-game damage abilities while shortening his Ultimate's foreswing to make him easier and more flexible to use.
[Attributes] (↓)
Base HP: 2530 >> 2285
HP Growth: 142.4 >> 160
[Passive] (↓)
Attack Speed Boost: 7.5%-15% >> 7.5% at all levels
Basic Attack Base Damage: 45 >> 30
[Skill 1] (↓)
Base Damage: 225-525 >> 225-400
[Ultimate] (↑)
Reduced foreswing time by 50%.
[Hayabusa] (↑)
We want Hayabusa to use less Energy on his Ultimate and focus more on his shurikens.
[Ultimate] (↑)
Energy Cost: 25 >> 15
[Vexana] (↓)
Vexana is starting to show dominance in all Ranks, and we will be slightly reducing her late-game damage and Skill 1 hit rate.
[Skill 1] (↓)
Reduced projectile speed and width by 10%.
[Skill 2] (↓)
Magic Bonus: 180% >> 165%
[Guinevere] (↓)
Adding Stun to Guinevere's Skill 2 has benefited Guinevere players' control experience, but as a Fighter, she is now too powerful against enemy back-row heroes. Meanwhile, the Concentrated Energy adjustment can be considered a buff, and we want to prevent it from being overpowered again.
[Skill 2] (↓)
Cast Range: 6 >> 5
[Diggie] (↓)
Diggie's early-game damage is too powerful against the soloing enemy.
[Skill 1] (↓)
Base Damage: 500-600 >> 350-600

Base HP: 2620 >> 2320
HP Growth: 148.5 >> 170

Battlefield Adjustments
Limited-Time Map
The 2024 ALLSTAR Theme Map, "Euphora" will be available for a limited time!
We have designed the new event map based on the ALLSTAR music theme and revamped the background music and sound effects accordingly.
We'll also be introducing a revamped Lord in this map!
Attack Speed
In this patch, we have optimized the growth of Attack Speed by removing the Attack Speed Threshold limitation, and now every 1% of Attack Speed will result in an actual Attack Speed gain.
With this optimization, the growth of Attack Speed will be smoother instead of abruptly changing after reaching a certain Attack Speed. This also solves the problem of some heroes actually gaining 5.0 Attack Speed at 4.0 Attack Speed in the panel.
[Battle Spell]
[Inspire] (↓)
Attack Speed Boost: 1.55 times >> 1.5times
Mythic
With all the Marksmen's HP lowered, an early-game Turret dive becomes more likely. We decide to slightly increase ally hero protection from the Gold Lane Outer Turret.
[Gold Lane Outer Turret] (↑)
Damage Reduction for allied heroes when near an Energy Shield: 30% >> 35%
Equipment Adjustments
[Concentrated Energy] (↑)
We hope that Magic Fighters who rely partially on Basic Attack damage will also benefit from this equipment.
[Attributes] (↑)
20% Spell Vamp >> 20% Hybrid Lifesteal
Max HP: 700 >> 400
[Oracle] (~)
We hope to make this equipment stats more universal.
[Attributes] (~)
Magic Defense: 42 >> 25
Added 25 Physical Defense
And we've also changed the build path.
[Price] (↑)
2060 >> 1860
[Radiant Armor] (~)
Changed the build path
[Corrosion Scythe] (↓)
[Attributes] (↓)
Attack Speed: 35% >> 30%
[Demon Hunter Sword] (↓)
[Attributes] (↓)
Attack Speed: 25% >> 20%
[Golden Staff] (↓)
[Unique Passive - Endless Strike] (↓)
Attack Speed of Enhanced Basic Attack: 100% >> 80%
[Sea Halberd] (↓)
[Attributes] (↓)
Attack Speed: 25% >> 20%
[Windtalker] (↓)
[Attributes] (↓)
Attack Speed: 40% >> 35%
[Haas' Claws] (↓)
[Attributes] (↓)
Attack Speed: 20% >> 15%
Battlefield Adjustments
[Controls]
Added the following Control settings:
a. Close Pursuit: When enabled, the pursuit distance is the shortest distance outside the attack range.
b. Pause Movement at Joystick Center: When enabled, the hero stops moving when the Joystick stays in the center.
c. Active Creeps Filter: When enabled, active Creeps are attacked before inactive Creeps.
d. Attack Activation Distance: Provides options such as Distant, Close, and Fixed Position Based on Range.
Changed Attack Assist to Move and Pursue.
Changed Skill Smart Targeting to Accurate Indicator.
[Other]
Optimized certain heroes' default Battle Setups to make the Equipment, Emblems, and Battle Spells better match their roles.
Removed the restriction that the losing team could only have up to 2 gold medals, and now all players will be rated for medals according to the same rules, regardless of whether they win or lose.
Optimized the Auto Attack filter logic to match that of manual attacks.
[Bug Fixes]
Fixed an issue where the description of the distance required to move with Chou's Passive didn't match the actual effect.
Fixed an issue where Fredrinn's Crystal Energy would be reduced by War Axe's True Damage.
Fixed an issue where Alucard's enhanced Basic Attack by Passive would not benefit from the Attack Speed Bonus.
Fixed an issue where Spell Vamp would affect the War Axe's True Damage effect.

Game Modes
[Magic Chess] v436.1
[From the Designers]
We've noticed that in the 4th Anniversary patch, the lineups carried by 4-Gold and 5-Gold heroes are too powerful and easy to build, leaving 3-Gold heroes no chance to carry. But we want to give them more time in combat. That's why we're requiring more Exp for the Capacity upgrade and giving low-cost lineups more time to grow, and there will be two new Runes for low-cost lineups. We've also received feedback about Tharz's Ultimate, and these adjustments will keep him balanced.
Meanwhile, Commanders were experiencing sudden deaths late in the game and felt unsafe even at 30 HP. To fix this, we've adjusted the scaling of Commander damage to make it more evenly distributed to reduce late-game deaths.
As for Magic Crystals, sometimes none of the three options could match the selected lineup. To make this less of an issue, we've changed the randomization rules: Now, at least one of the random Magic Crystals will be related to your highest active Synergy.
As for the heroes, we've adjusted the skills of Masha and Leomord. Masha now has Lifesteal and Leomord can deal splash damage with Basic Attacks. Hopefully, they can have more moments to shine as 4-Gold heroes.
[Match-related Adjustments]
Gold Required to Level Up:
To Lv.6: 16 >> 18
To Lv.7: 28 >> 32
To Lv.8: 40 >> 48
Commander Damage Adjustments:
Adjusted Commander damage scaling by increasing their base damage and reducing the increased damage from each surviving hero.
[Magic Crystal Adjustments]
Now, at least one of the random Magic Crystals will be related to your highest active Synergy (either that Synergy or your hero's other Synergy).

[Brawl] v252.1
Some heroes farm much faster from Minion kills, creating an unfair mid-game hero level advantage. We hope to reduce the mid-game level gap between heroes while maintaining the overall pace of leveling in the game.
Removed the extra Exp gained from minion kills and reduced the basic Exp provided by Minions.
Increased the Exp gained over time. Heroes start to gain Exp from 60s >> 30s after the battle begins.
Slightly reduced the Exp required for Lv.4-9.
Due to the reduced Regen for all heroes, the effects of Runes are now too weak.
Runes' AoE Regen Effect: 10% >> 20% of Max HP (5% >> 10% of Max HP after all heroes' Regen is reduced by 50%.)
