[Battle Adjustments]

Sophia Adjustments

"Due to her unique weapon, Sophia's AOE attack makes her feel very overwhelming. On its own, Sophia's weapon doesn't have a weakness therefore her overall speed in mid-air is faster than other heroes, so is her skills, it allows her to face off with her opponents. At the same time, some of Sophia's attacks are angled downward, and so with a low KO Score, she would be a bigger threat to opponents with low capabilities returning to the stage. Therefore, we would like to slightly reduce her attack range on the basis of not changing her overall performance and adjusting her KO angle without changing her KO strength, allowing opponents to find openings against her."

[Front Aerial/Back Aerial]

Slightly decreased the skill's horizontal range

Decreased the skill's vertical range

Slightly decreased the duration of Sweet Spot

Adjusted the KO angle, opponents will now be thrown up after being hit

Increased ending lag

Slightly increased the base KO strength

Slightly increased the KO growth during Sweet Spot

[Up Special - Punch the Sky]

Decreased the horizontal and vertical range of Sweet Spot

Decreased the range of the main hitbox

[Dash Up Attack]

Slightly increased the Start-up lag and Ending lag (preemptively jumping after hitting the opponent)

[Up Aerial]

Slightly decreased the horizontal range on both sides

[Down Aerial]

Slightly decreased the vertical range when attacking downward

Decreased the horizontal range of Sweet Spot when attacking downward

[Up Attack]

Slightly decreased the horizontal range on both sides

Slightly decreased the horizontal and vertical ranges at the top

Mikko Adjustments

"Gotta load up to smash up. Mikko said so."

[Neutral Special - Star Strike]

Adjusted the attack's collision hitbox. It will no longer run into Tina's [Ground Down Attack] and bounce back without damaging each other.

Sivi Adjustments

"Sivi's standard dash can cover his frontal area effectively and have very limited penalty window after forcing his opponents back. We have slightly increased the penalty to limit his continued usage of the maneuver."

[Side Special - Rocket Assault]

Slightly increased the Start-up lag

Magician Adjustments

"As a ranged character, the hit-range for some of Magician's items are larger, and even without his throwable items, Magician already possesses pretty decent melee capabilities. For that reason, we have adjusted some of the throwable items' range so that their hitbox is closer to the target. Simultaneously, we have weakened his melee capabilities and mobility to a certain degree."

[Base Attribute Adjustment]

Decreased the hitbox size of Gold/Silver Statues after they were Knocked-out again.

Decreased the acceleration when jumping in mid-air

[Sticker Down Special - Fake Hat]/[Down Special - Endless Hat]

Decreased the hat's attack range during flight

[Front Aerial]

[Ground Down Attack]

Slightly increased the Start-up lag

Cannot switch to other attacks immediately after use.

Cupid Adjustments

"In a previous adjustment, we have strengthened Cupid's overall standard attack, but we noticed we may have overdone it. As a ranged character, it was already difficult to get up close to him due to his ranged skills as well as his melee damage wasn't ignored as well, if the opponent has taken a full hit. Therefore, we are adjusting back some of his overpowered attacks and special abilities, and at the same time lowered his Side Special's KO strength to balance out his attacks."

[Standard Attack]

No longer allows switching to Special skills too early

Decreased the melee attack range

Decreased the arrows' damage

[Ground Up Attack]

Adjusted the knock-out angle and increased the knock-out growth to optimize the hit experience. It is now possible to chain combos at a low knock-out score;

[Up Special - Love Spins]

Decreased the horizontal range on which Cupid can move after landing

[Side Special - Love Wave]

Slightly decreased the window for Sweet Spot.

Slightly increased the KO angle

Slightly decreased the KO strength

Slightly decreased the hitstun after being hit

Heracles Adjustments

"Some of Heracles' skills may accidentally disconnect with his opponents due to height differences, so we have optimized those specific moves to raise its reliability."

[Front Aerial]

Increased the two racket attacks' reliability

[Back Aerial]

Increased the KO growth of Sour Spot

Made it easier to hit the Sweet Spot

[Down Special - Reverse Black Hole]

Increased the suction duration effect against opponents in mid-air to increase skill reliability

[Ground Up Attack]

Adjusted the KO angle and increased the KO growth to optimize the experience. With a low KO Score, Heracles can now launch into a combo reliably

[Aerial Attack]

Decreased the calculation window for Sour Spot.

Alice Adjustments

"Even after the last adjustment, Alice's overall strength still seemed a little outstanding. We hope this adjustment will balance out her overall abilities more."

[Base Attribute Adjustment]

Slightly increased the jumping height

[Front Aerial]

Slightly increased the Ending lag

[Back Aerial]

Slightly increased the Ending lag and decreased the KO strength

[Ground Down Attack]

Fixed the issue where dashing will cause Alice to slide forward in the duration

[Side Special - Magic Claw]

Increased the KO strength when throwing the opponent upward

Decreased the KO strength when throwing the opponent forward

Tina Adjustments

"As a melee fighter, Tina's multi-hit attacks felt a little too long and covered a lot too much of grounds. We would like her to be one of those fighters that are easier to counter and not be one-sidedly overwhelming, so we have adjusted her series of aerial strikes."

[Aerial Attack]

Slightly increased the Ending lag

Landing before the hit calculation had taken effect would interrupt the attack

[Front Aerial]

Decreased the attack range

Decreased the attack duration

Slightly increased the Ending lag

[Back Aerial]

Landing before the hit calculation had taken effect would interrupt the attack

[Ground Up Attack]

[Sticker - Up Special - Fish Leap]

If Tina is blown away by the wind during skill's activation, she can follow up with a jump.

Chilli Adjustments

"Currently, Chilli's [Sticker - Down Special - Power Shot] can be used continuously to overpower her opponents, so we have set a limit on her skill can be used. Aside from that, we also removed the attack calculation for Chilli's trampoline move so that attacks following Chilli during that opening would be more powerful."

[Sticker - Down Special - Power Shot]

Adjusted skill cooldown time and is now the same as [Down Special - Joke's on You]

[Down Special - Joke's on You]

Rust will now descend from the platform during his descent

Fixed the attack animation error

Fixed the issue of the skill switching to [Sticker - Down Special - Power Shot] abnormally in some situations

[Up Special - Trampoline Acrobatic]

The trampoline will no longer have an attack determination when used in mid-air

Macalon Adjustments

"When anticipating an opponent attack, Macalon can usually cancel its opponents' attacks with its own Side Special's Super Armor, causing the skill to be extra potent as a counter-skill. We hope this skill to be used as a proper counter and not as a all-purpose attack, so we shortened the Super Armor's duration."

[Down Aerial]

Slightly increased the hit duration

Slightly increased the hitbox of the flames around Macalon's mouth so that the attack range is more aligned with the visual effect

[Side Special - Pouncing Dragon]

Delayed the activation of Super Armor

[Charged Attack]

Decreased the base damage of the flame, allowing it to benefit from the charging time's bonus damage (originally, no matter the charging time, the damage is fixed)
