King of the Hill Season 14

This is a comparatively small patch. The most important new things are that we reworked Bloodletting for Healers (this is a mutation that turns healing into an attack). Mutations that affect Healers' healing now do damage when combined with Bloodletting. We also increased the EXP received in Sprint, reworked Normal and Hard modes, and made balance changes, of course (something got nerfed)!

We have also added a display of your current team's results in the King of the Hill mode. It shows the following stats:

1. The change in your team's position since entering the ranking;
   
2. The total number of battles your team has defended (when the team is "blue");
   
3. The number of victories in defense;
   
4. The number of defeats in defense.
   

Sometimes, the number of defeats may not match the number of positions you have "lost" on the leaderboard. This happens because players who are ranked higher than you can defeat your team any number of times without causing you to lose your present ranking—because the player who defeated you was initially ranked higher than you. Your position changes only when a player ranked lower than you defeats your team.

Our next update's going to be a big one, so keep an eye out for details on these forums and our Discord server!

[h2]• Game Mode Balance •[/h2]

• Changed the order mutations are given in Hard Mode;
  
• Nerfed Catbots a little (let's just say floors 2-3 are now, ahem... beatable);
  
• Changed the pool of enemies you can encounter in Normal mode;
  
• Added a base mutation for Sprint that increases EXP received by 30%.
  

[h2]• Mutation Balance •[/h2]

• When combined with mutations that affect Healers' healing, Bloodletting now transforms those mutations into maiming mutations. For example, Sweet Pill to Swallow becomes Sleeping Pill to Swallow, and instead of increasing ally attack speed, it reduces enemy attack speed;
  
• Nerfed Curse of Gluttony, food requirements increased: 100% ➔ 130%;
  
• Last Chance dodge chance reduced: 35% ➔ 25%;
  
• Health restored by Thrill of Battle reduced: 20 ➔ 15;
  
• Feint damage reduced: 250 ➔ 200;
  
• Attack bonus from Powerful Pill reduced: 50 ➔ 40;
  
• Attack speed bonus from Sweet Pill to Swallow reduced: 80 ➔ 50;
  
• Attack speed buff from Effective Aura reduced: 15 ➔ 10;
  
• Dodge chance multiplier for Most Dexterous reduced: 5 ➔ 3;
  
• Damage bonus from Impostor reduced: 100% ➔ 75%;
  
• Magic Mirror proc chance reduced: 15 ➔ 10.
