We’re adjusting the spawn points for both teams to make this map more balanced. For Mars Electric, we adjusted the play zone slightly to ensure the warehouse is in the center of the map."

"Camouflage is currently a bit too difficult to be hit because Wukong is moving at a fast speed with a reduced hitbox. We're toning down the movement speed a bit in this patch so players are less mobile while Camouflaged."

Camouflage:
[New] Movement speed reduced by 20% when activated.

 

Andrew "The Fierce"
