Recently they have released Patch 1.9.04 for adjustments to several heroes and some battle effects. Let’s break these down to see if these adjustments help your gameplay! 

Hero Adjustments

Buffed Argus: In this update, the hero Argus receives a buff. Argus's ultimate ability has been revamped by the developers to enhance the control aspect of the game. In his new ultimate, Argus wields his Meteoric Sword and releases a powerful wave of energy. This wave inflicts physical damage on enemies in close proximity and transforms Argus into the Fallen Angel for a duration of 5 seconds.

Moreover, when this attack connects with an enemy hero, it not only amplifies the power of the Meteoric Sword but also accumulates Malice Energy following the Demonic Slash. This energy boost is further intensified during critical strikes, adding a strategic layer to Argus's gameplay.

Buffed Suyou: For Suyou, some skill damage ratios have been adjusted for better balance and gameplay experience. For his Skill 1, the Tap-casting damage increased from 150-190 +60% extra physical attack to 250-330 +100% extra physical attack and the Hold-casting damage  increased from 150-190 +60% extra physical attack to 250-330 +100% extra physical attack. End damage after hold-casting removed, now dealing damage only once. Increased charging time from tap to hold, providing more aiming time for tap-casting.

For his skill 3, Tap-casting damage goes from 280-400 +80% extra physical attack to 350-490 +100% extra physical attack and Max charge damage reduced from 250% to 200%.

Nerfed Cyclops: For Cyclops, there has been a nerf to his ultimate ability. The cooldown has been increased from 20-16s to a fixed 22s at all levels. Additionally, the base damage has been reduced from 550-880 to 500-800. The mana cost has also been adjusted from 80-100 to 60-100. Moreover, the immobilizing time of the ultimate has been increased from 0.8s to 1s.

Nerfed Zhask: As for Zhask, he has also received a nerf in this update.

Zhask's attack speed plays a crucial role in enhancing his effectiveness on the battlefield, leading to a notable increase in his overall power. To ensure a balanced gaming experience without further empowering Zhask, developers have decided to make adjustments to optimize his build.

His Nightmaric Spawn's additional magic power has been slightly reduced from 20-50 to 15-30. And the extra magic power provided by Enhanced Nightmaric Spawn has been adjusted from 50-100 to 40-80.

Adjusted Joy: After carefully considering player feedback, developers have reversed the modifications to Joy's ultimate ability. The focus remains on retaining the quicker Skill 2, with ongoing monitoring of her performance. For Joy’s Ultimate, the damage output has been revised from 150-250 +50% total magic power to 120-200 +40% total magic power. The number of pulses has been increased from 6 to 8.

Adjusted Granger: We have mentioned a revamp for Granger, the Death Chanter in the version 1.8.98. He is famous for his strong offense. And the difficulty to control this hero is not that high.

This time, Granger's ultimate damage has been enhanced in the early game post-revamp. The Damage increased from 250-350 +90% total physical attack to 300-400 +80% total physical attack. And the attack range is reduced from 13.5 to 11.5. The conversion ratio of cooldown reduction to attack has been decreased by the developers. Every 1% of cooldown reduction converted to physical attack goes from 2.5 to 2.

Battlefield Adjustments

Battlefield Effect Test

As part of the update, developers have introduced two new battlefield effects to elevate the gaming experience for players. These effects are exclusively available for ranked matches at Master rank and above, adding a layer of complexity and strategy to the gameplay.

Healing Turret: Players will now have to adapt their gameplay strategies to leverage the advantages offered by these new battlefield effects, adding a fresh and exciting dimension to each match they participate in. From July 21st to July 27th server time, the outer turret will provide continuous healing to allied heroes within its attack range, restoring a percentage of their maximum HP per second. This healing effect will be disabled if the hero is attacked by non-minion enemies.

Lord's Aura: During the period of July 23rd to July 24th server time, the player who defeats the Lord will receive the temporary Lord's Aura, granting them the ability to deal additional magic damage to their enemies with a cooldown. This bonus lasts for 3 minutes and can be stolen by killing the current holder, inheriting the remaining duration. The original summoned Lord will temporarily lose the Lord's Aura skill during this time.
