Improved the Ultimate's flying path. Mathilda will no longer fly toward the target. And if she starts too close to the target, she will fly away from the target first so the target hero can't interrupt her flight by closing in on her.



Slightly reduced the Ultimate's range. Floryn is too powerful in Ranked with the new Emblem Talents and Lifesteal update. So we're nerfing Floryn's healing ability, but giving her the ability to increase teammates' damage with the equipment she provides. We're also giving her simpler skill mechanics and casting experience.

[PASSIVE] (↑)

The buffs we added to Lylia in the last patch didn't meet our expectations. We were able to simplify her Ultimate, but we also took away her 10X Shadow Energy combo burst. So, we are adding back her Shadow Energy combo back in a different way to give the pro Lylia players more possibilities.

[SKILL 1] (↑)
Attack Speed Boost: 35%-75% >>50%-75%



It is very difficult to counter a Marksman hero with unlimited dashes and control removal. In the past, we have tried different approaches to balance this between pro matches and top-level Ranked matches but none of them worked as intended. This time, we decided to adjust Wanwan's skill 2, which will require Wanwan players to be more careful about when to use this skill. However, we have also increased Wanwan's damage and mobility in the hopes that she will perform differently depending on the skill of the player.
