Dear Rivals,



Recently, we've seen the use of a third-party plugin known as Blitz. This program injects itself into our game process, giving users confidential information like damage and healing statistics. It allows players to selectively ban heroes, predict opponents' ultimate abilities, and more, severely undermining the fairness of our game. As such, we deem this program as cheating software and will no longer allow its use during gameplay.

But fear not! Players who have previously used this software will not face any penalties, as long as you refrain from using it in future games.

To uphold justice in our gaming universe and protect the integrity of your account, we strongly urge you to refrain from using any third-party plugins. Together, we can forge a vibrant and heroic gaming environment.



Wishing you epic adventures in your gaming journey!
