Welcome to the new update! This time, our keywords are Exp Lane, laning and teamfight. We want to see more actions in all the lanes during the laning phase, and allow players to decide on their own whether to join a teamfight for the Turtle. Armed Fighters and sustainable Tanks will have revamped War Axe and Brute Force Breastplate as their core builds. While War Axe provides sufficient True Damage, Brute Force Breastplate ensures balanced attack and defense. Meanwhile, many long-debuted heroes will get gameplay optimizations and upgrades! Hopefully, they'll bring you an even better battle experience.

Equipment Changes(6)

System & Battlefield

Battlefield Adjustments

Turtle

Turtles will make a more shocking entrance and exit! Side lane heroes have more of a say in whether to join teamfights near the Turtles.

New Effect: 10s prior to/after the Turtles spawn or exit, the River generates a strong current flowing toward/away from them. Follow the flow to gain up to 50% extra Movement Speed.

We added a global notification 10s before the Turtle spawns to remind players to use the River for Turtle fights.

Scavenger Crabs

Easier to kill and more rewarding!

Crabs now have much lower HP, and Little Crabs no longer spawn in the first 2 minutes. (Scavenger Crabs continue to spawn instead)

Removed Effect: Reward extra Gold over time for Crab kills.

New Effect: Crab in Exp Lane now drops 3 Exp Scrolls, which can be picked for bonus Exp. Crab in Gold Lane now drops 3 Gold, which can be picked for bonus Gold.

Blink Adjustments

We optimized the mechanisms for Blinking to a target location through walls. If you choose to Blink inside a wall and it doesn't exceed the max distance, you'll land on the side of the wall closer to your destination.

We increased the distance compensation for most Blinks through walls. Whether you Blink in a target direction or to a target location, as long as the arrow or circle is outside of a wall, you can Blink through that wall.

Adjusted the indicator length of the following heroes' Blink skills to match their actual Blink distance: hero=Lolita. hero=Sun. hero=Yi Sun-Shin. hero=Roger. hero=Irithel. hero=Argus. hero=Martis. and hero=Dyrroth.

Target Selection Logic Adjustments

We optimized the target selection logic in different situations, including:
