Characters

Legend:  
+ = Buff 
– = Nerf 
~ = Change 
* = Bugfix 
Note: Attacks callouts reference default controls. 

Arya 

• Dash Attack 
  • ~ Reduced input buffer window for follow-up attacks 

Banana Guard 

The goal of this change is to reduce the extreme kill power on Banana Guard’s side specials and bring it more in line with the damage of the rest of the cast.

  • – Reduced damage to 10 from 12

  • – Reduced damage to 12 from 14 

Bugs Bunny

Garnet

Gizmo 

• Up Special 
  • – Ally attach cooldown now begins when Gizmo detaches from his ally, instead of beginning when Gizmo attaches to his ally. 

Iron Giant 

The goal of these changes is to prevent Iron Giant from chaining certain sets of attacks infinitely. While these fixes address some of the issues on Iron Giant, it will require additional fixes to bring Iron Giant fully back online. Iron Giant will remain down for repairs until those fixes are implemented in a future patch.

  • – Basketball can now only hit one time per target 

Marvin 

• Aerial/Ground Neutral Attack 
  • * Fixed an issue where Marvin could ringout opponents instantly due to a Side Special projectile interaction with Neutral Attack 

Reindog 

• Aerial Side Attack 
  • ~ Knockback Angle is now more horizontal 
• Aerial Up Attack 
  • ~ Knockback Angle is now more horizontal 

Shaggy 

The goal of this change is to not allow Neutral Air Attack to combo back into the Jab combo at all damage levels. There are feel issues introduced with this change that we will address in the next patch. 

• Aerial Neutral Air 
  • ~ Base Knockback increased to 1700 from 1300

  • ~ Knockback Angle is more horizontal

Steven 

• Aerial Up Attack

• Aerial Down Attack 
  • – On-Hit cancel window delayed by 3 frames 

Stripe 

• Aerial Down Attack 
  • + More downward momentum is maintained on attack start-up 

Taz 

• Aerial/Ground Side Special 
  • + Increased damage on non-cooldown tornado final hit to 8 from 7  

Wonder Woman 

Wonder Woman’s lasso was a bit too oppressive to play against without any limiter, so we decided to add a short cooldown to the ability. 

• Aerial/Ground Neutral Special 
  • – Added an 8 second cooldown for lasso 

What's Next?

The devs are listening to feedback. They're planning more updates:

• Performance improvements
