[p]We just pushed a fix for the Ranked connectivity issues.[/p][p]You should now be able to join matches as usual and lobbies will be more reliably full.[/p]

[p]Legends, a couple quick changes are now live![/p]

• [p]Alter's downed Nexus Teleport now works as intended.[/p]
• [p]Reduced Ash's Dash speed by ~30% (influenced by numerous factors: in air/on ground/momentum/direction - these conditions remain unchanged)[/p]
  • [p]Dev note: Ash has been dominant for much of the year, ever since we both added her new Dash passive and improved her abilities. We've been trying to bring her back down to earth through a series of balance changes over the last few months, but have been reluctant to touch the dash passive's speed or distance since so many players are having fun with it. This latest change is finally changing the speed of her dash, as we feel the data shows that reducing the power of the rest of her kit (even increasing the cooldown of her dash) wasn't enough to bring her back in line with the rest of the roster.[/p]

Death came to collect Mad Maggie’s soul, and she laughed in its face. Now the armies of the undead are battling in the Raise Hell Event: ice-cold Reapers and monstrous Demons fighting for the one soul that refuses to be harvested. Wildcard gets a full Halloween takeover: Rev Shell Grenades hunt enemies through the shadows, EVO orbs pulse with otherworldly energy, even your loot bins may hold some… unexpected surprises. Kick those supernatural assassins back to hell from October 14 to November 4, 2025.[/p][h2]WILDCARD: HALLOWEEN[/h2][p][/p][p]Pick a side in Wildcard’s supernatural showdown: choose Reaper or Demon themed Wild Cards to gain mastery of the dark arts. Take the Reaper Path for otherworldly precision: faster movement, reloads, and guaranteed critical hits. Pick the Demon Wild Cards for raw power: infinite ammo, explosive knocked enemies, and vampiric health recovery. [/p][p]Wildcard Trios Raise Hell (October 14 - November 4, 2025)[/p]

[p][/p][p]The Rev Shell ordinance is making a triumphant return! As a quick refresher: Rev Shells are a target-seeking grenade that look almost as scary as the damage they do. Grab a shell, toss it into the air and it will seek out valid nearby targets, delivering substantial damage. Is there a Rev Shell hot on your heels? Take aim and shoot it down to cause an early detonation. Enjoy for a limited-time, while Raise Hell is active![/p][p][/p][h2]EVENT ITEMS[/h2][p]Earn Pumpkins throughout the event to get items from the Reward Shop.
