1.8.30MLBB Patch Notes: Buffs, Nerfs & Balance Changes

Pursuer & Finisher For the Moskov revamp, we optimized his Ultimate to give him new possibilities while also nerfed his other skills by reducing their power. In addition, we redesigned Moskov's look, bringing him back to his best form.

As the only hero with 3 HP bars, Masha lacks the appropriate skills and strength when facing other heroes. We're making her more aggressive by differentiating her 3 HP bars and making each skill cast count, while allowing her to enter and exit the fight at will under certain conditions. In the meantime, players will have to be more careful with the timing of each skill cast (especially with only one HP bar left) as she has lost some of her durability advantages. We're also adding the Jungle as her secondary position and changing her default Battle Setup. (Masha needs equipment to provide extra Attack Speed and HP Regen rather than Defense.)

Experimental Adjustments: Argus's current gameplay is a bit too bland. His Ultimate seems to be both offensive and defensive, but in fact, it's difficult to achieve the desired effect. The Curse Damage of Meteoric Sword constitutes a lot of his strength, but it doesn't match his style of spamming Basic Attack. So we decided to redesign Argus's skill set and combat experience. As well as his early to mid game laning ability.

Experimental adjustments: We wanted to make it easier for Joy's opponents to deal with her, while at the same time making her less difficult to play. Joy's enemy can now interrupt her Skill 2 with CCs. Joy should now look for the right time to enter the fight. But she still has options if her Skill 2 is interrupted.

We want to emphasize Roger's tactical significance and performance, as most of the time he just dominates the game in the wolf form when the team is leading in Gold. So, we've balanced the difference in damage output between his human and the wolf forms. Roger's human form is now stronger at lowering enemies' HP while his wolf form is stronger at finishing them off.

We're making Khaleed's skills easier to use.

We want to bridge the gap between Alucard's damage against single and multiple enemies, and improve his sustained damage without Ultimate.

We want Chang'e to be able to deal good damage without high Passive stacks, and enhance her ability to slow the enemies at the same time.

Tigreal is a Tank hero with one of the best chain control combos in the game, and we tried to make it easier for his opponents to deal with his Ultimate. But it seems we made it too easy. So, we'll adjust his Ultimate - it can still be interrupted, but only by enemy heroes who are not affected by his Ultimate.

Experimental adjustments: Harith's Passive does not work well against the high level CCs. So, we've changed it to enhance Harith's survivability.

We want Minsitthar to connect his Spear of Glory to following attacks more consistently. For example, use Spear of Glory + Ultimate as a great control combo; or use Spear of Glory + Shield Assault as a quick stun combo. (Enemy heroes can easily escape after being caught by Spear of Glory.)

We'd like to make Guinevere's Skill 2 more "reliable" so that players can clearly see whether or not they've hit the target. We've noticed that in certain cases, the skill doesn't knock enemies airborne. We have also increased the control duration of her Ultimate to match its visual effects.

The nerf on Yve's lane-clearing ability and on the Ice Queen Wand were too much for Yve. We're giving back some of her slowing ability.

Most of Gusion's combos rely on him recalling his daggers, and we don't want Gusion players to go through a series of complicated maneuvers only to have the final step interrupted by factors beyond their control, making it all go to waste!

Slightly increased the cast range to make the Skills 2-3-1 combo easier to use.

Cecilion's damage output has decreased since the revamp of Lightning Truncheon. We'll make up for that in this patch.

The buff from the last patch didn't meet our expectations. We'll continue to buff their damage.

After several rounds of nerfs, Valentina's powerful Ultimate still makes her an irreplaceable choice in high-level matches and tournaments. This time around, we're increasing her Ultimate's cooldown once again in hopes of improving the use rate of other Mages in high-rank plays.

Slightly nerfed Nolan's combos in early and mid game.

We're making Thamuz more mobile and slightly reducing his cooldowns.

Natan relies heavily on his Ultimate to deal damage. We're going to reduce the cooldown of his Ultimate slightly.

The nerfs to Lesley and Berserker's Fury made Lesley too weak in late game. So we are buffing her early game abilities to bring forward her dominant phase.

We want to keep Terizla's current style: Heavy, tanky, high damage, and strong control. So we're adjusting his mobility a bit.

The recent changes to the Jungling mechanics and equipment were a buff to Fanny, so we're nerfing her Passive to not make her too strong in the new meta.

Mathilda's Ultimate now has more potential with the new 2nd strike option. We hope to give her opponent more ways to counter it.

We noticed that Angela was being used for Mid Lane in higher play and tournament matches. We feel that this will reduce the usage rate of Mage Heroes, so we are nerfing Angela's lane-clearing efficiency to make her less competitive and take longer to reach maximum speed.

We are making Rafaela less competitive for the Mid Lane position in higher play and tournament matches.

Slightly nerfed Irithel's damage in mid-to-late game.

Slightly increased Esmeralda's survivability in the early game.

Slightly increased Ling's Crit Damage.

The stun duration increase we introduced made Baxia's 1st Skill too good of an initiation skill in the early-to-mid game, so we're increasing its cooldown time.
