System
VLS (Vertical Launch System)
With the recent hotfix, a stun effect has been added upon landing, introducing a risk to landing near enemies using the VLS. However, players have expressed difficulty countering VLS due to a lack of actionable information. To address this, we are introducing features that allow players to better track and respond to enemies using the VLS.
- Player vision range while gliding with the VLS 11m → 10.5m.
- When spotted by an enemy while gliding, a "Vision Shared" effect will now notify the gliding player that they have been observed.
- The location of gliding enemies will now be displayed on the ground, allowing players to track their movements and anticipate their approach.
Players previously faced challenges reuniting with teammates using the VLS. To address this, VLS in restricted zones will now transform into Hyperloops, enabling longer-range movement when needed.
Restricted Area VLS are transformed into Hyperloops.
Secret Labs
To reduce the strategic advantage of vision gained from escape loops in Secret Labs, we are adjusting the time available for using the labs and activating their escape loops.
All Labs
Time until becoming a Restricted Area
From entrance 80s → 70s
Exit Loop Availability
From entrance 40s → 50s
Blue lab
Gamma’s Base HP 7000 → 9000
Vision Items - Cameras and Drones Adjustments
The revamped vision system has significantly increased the use of vision items among beginner and intermediate players. However, we’ve also received feedback from you that acquiring vision has become too easy, with a notable rise in Drone usage among high-tier players.
To address this, we’re reducing the number of Drones obtained through Ravens. At the same time, we’ll be reducing the price of EMP Drones, making it easier to get them through the VPad when needed.

The range of Bullseye (Q) was fixed in the last update to remain consistent, but its reduced range caused inconvenience. This adjustment increases the range for better usability.
Bullseye(Q)

Nicky
With the removal of debuff cleanse from Guard & Reverse (W) in the last update, we’re increasing Nicky's durability to compensate.

Mai
We’re reducing Mai's defense to introduce a bit more risk to her gameplay.
Defense 52 → 48
Vanya
Following the last update, changes to Vanya's Q - Guiding Light allowed the butterfly to travel further upon hitting an enemy. While this was intended to make recalling the butterfly easier and balance its overly strong matchups, the changes resulted in weaker performance than expected. To address this, we’re increasing the projectile speed to ensure the butterfly returns more quickly.
Guiding Light(Q)
Projectile Speed for additional movement upon hitting enemy 5m/s → 6.6m/s
Sua
We’re increasing the cooldown of The Curious Case (W) to limit its frequent use at higher levels.
The Curious Case(W)
Cooldown 20/19/18/17/16s → 20/19.5/19/18.5/18s
Silvia
The movement speed calculation changes in the last update made Silvia’s R - Shift Gears slower, prompting adjustments by reducing its cooldown. However, the increased fuel consumption per second made it harder to use, so we’re reverting this. Additionally, we’re reducing the cooldown for E - Wheelie to enhance the usability of R - Shift Gears.
Wheelie (Bike E)
Cooldown 13/12/11/10/9s → 12/11/10/9/8s
Shift Gears (R)
Fuel Consumption per second 18 → 16
Celine
We’re increasing Celine's power to enhance her overall performance.
Skill Amp per Throw Mastery Level 4.2% → 4.4%
Elena
Since the last update, Elena's ability to create Ice Fields with D - Quick Cut and the reduced recast delay of W - Double Axel has significantly improved her gameplay feel. However, this also increased the speed at which opponents are frozen. To address this, the Chill Gauge requirement for P - Winter Queen's Dominion is being increased, slowing down the freezing process, and the slow effect is being adjusted to allow for better counterplay.
Winter Queen's Dominion(P)
Chill Gauge 110 → 115
Chill Slow 25% → 20%

We’re increasing William's durability.

The enter and edge damage of Q - 40mm Grenade was unified in the previous update, but it continues to perform strongly so we’re reducing the skill's power for balance.

Bug Fixes & Improvements
About Movement Speed Adjustments
In the last update, adjustments were made to character skills and items after the application of a soft cap in the movement speed calculation formula. However, movement speed increases of 15% or less are minimally affected by the soft cap and are applied as before.
For example, a skill that increases movement speed by 30% is naturally reduced by the soft cap, meaning its actual movement speed remains similar despite an increase in the displayed number. That said, with the new formula, the stacking of multiple movement speed increases now follows multiplicative scaling, which can lead to varied outcomes. In contrast, a 10% movement speed increase is unaffected by the soft cap and works the same as in previous seasons, so increasing it would result in a direct buff to the skill itself.
The introduction of the soft cap and multiplicative scaling adds more complexity when combined with Items, Augments, or Tactical Skills, making it difficult to replicate identical scenarios. This system will be closely monitored, and further adjustments will be implemented as needed.
An exception is Adina, whose Skill Amplification coefficient pushes her movement speed above 15%. Despite this, no adjustment was made due to her overall power already warranting a reduction, so her current state remains unchanged.
