Minor Patch 0.28.1 (2021. 03. 24)

Hey gang. Aesop here with a minor patch, slapping you all with some balance adjustments and some bug fixes.

This update will go live on Tuesday, March 23rd from 7 PM to 10 PM (PST). Servers will be down for roughly 3 hours.

[h2]Character[/h2]

As the season comes to an end, we're not going to be making any large-scale adjustments with this patch. We want you to finish up your ranked games and have fun with it. We are including some adjustments for characters that weren't really in line with the rest of the cast, but the biggest changes will be reserved for next week.

- Cast time 0.12s → 0.1s

Silvia

Following the nerfs last week, we expected a larger decrease in performance for the Swift Racer to get her in line. She's still above average in higher tiers, so we're adjusting her just a touch more.

Lumia Grand Prix (P)
- Fuel Cost 9/11/13 → 7/9/11

- Extra normal attack damage after getting down off bike 100/150/200% → 100/125/150%
