Patch Notes 2.2.26 - Adv. Server

[u/Tigreal]

Advanced server update released on October 15, 2026 (Server Time)

I. Revamped Hero

Revamped Hero: Natalia

Hero Features:

An Assassin who stays hidden and waits to strike, then eliminates targets with swift skill combos.

From the Designers:

Staying hidden and launching close-range ambushes are the core features of Natalia. Therefore, we will retain these features in the revamped Natalia while optimizing synergy between her skills. We've redesigned her Passive, Skill 2, and Ultimate. Our goal is to preserve the element of surprise in her Assassin gameplay while adding more variety to attack timing and skill combos.

ㅤㅤ [Passive - Assassin Instinct]

After hiding in a bush, Natalia enters Conceal. During Conceal, she applies full stacks of [Alert Mark] to nearby enemy heroes and creeps.

Basic Attacks against targets with max stacks of [Alert Mark] are enhanced. Staying near an enemy hero with max stacks for too long ends Conceal.

ㅤㅤ [Skill 1 - Claw Dash]

Retained the directional dash and the ability to recast the skill after hitting an enemy.

ㅤㅤ [Skill 2 - Veiled Pursuit]

Natalia releases smoke. While inside the smoke, she enters Conceal faster, and taking damage does not end Conceal.

Using Claw Dash or an enhanced Basic Attack outward from within the smoke extends the smoke in that direction.

ㅤㅤ [Ultimate - Shadow Flurry]

Natalia dashes to the target location and strikes enemies within her Attack Range multiple times, dealing Physical Damage.

Natalia is invincible while attacking.

II. Hero Adjustments

The following uses (↑) (↓) (~) >> to indicate Buff, Nerf, Adjustment, and Changes.

Heroes with major changes in this patch: Belerick (↑), Lukas (↑), and Popol and Kupa (~). ㅤ

• [Aldous] (↑)

Slightly increased his early-to-mid-game damage.

ㅤㅤ [Skill 1] (↑)

Base Damage: 200-450 >> 300-500 ㅤ

• [Atlas] (↓)

Atlas's Passive was freezing enemies too frequently, so we've reduced Frigid Breath's duration.

ㅤㅤ [Passive] (↓)

Frigid Breath Duration: 5s >> 3s ㅤ

• [Barats] (~)

Reverted last week's experimental changes to Barats. ㅤ

• [Belerick] (↑)

Reverted all recent changes to Belerick.

ㅤㅤ [Attributes] (↑)

HP Growth: 225 >> 240

ㅤㅤ [Skill 1] (↑)

Cooldown: 10-8s >> 8-6s ㅤ

• [Dori] (↓)

Slightly reduced her skill cast frequency.

ㅤㅤ [Skill 2] (↓)

Cooldown: 3.5s >> 4.5s ㅤ

• [Gloo] (↓)

Gloo's damage was still too high for a Tank, so we've reduced it.

ㅤㅤ [Skill 1] (↓)

Explosion Damage: 230-380 >> 200-350 ㅤ

• [Lukas] (↑)

The previous adjustment weakened Lukas too much, so we've increased his strength.

ㅤㅤ [Attributes] (↑)

Base HP: 2550 >> 2620

Base Physical Defense: 21 >> 23 ㅤ

• [Masha] (~)

To improve Masha's lane clear and help her push minion waves faster, we've moved the slow effect to Skill 2. This lets her keep chasing after dashing to an enemy and follow up with Basic Attacks to break Wounds. We've also narrowed Skill 2's path to reduce cases where nearby enemies block her dash when retreating. To balance this, we've reduced Skill 1's damage bonus and the Ultimate's base damage.

ㅤㅤ [Passive] (↑)

New Effect: Skill hits randomly replace one of the target's existing Wounds with a new one in the direction of the hit.

ㅤㅤ [Skill 1] (~)

Damage Bonus: 70% >> 55%

Damage to Minions: 100%-150% >> 200%

Removed Effect: Hitting an enemy hero slowed them by 50% for 1s.

ㅤㅤ [Skill 2] (↑)

New Effect: Hitting an enemy hero with the slash slows them by 50% for 1s.

Reduced Skill 2's path width by 20%.

ㅤㅤ [Ultimate] (↓)

Base Damage: 300-600 >> 240-480 ㅤ

• [Popol and Kupa] (~)

We're reducing Popol and Kupa's ramp-up time before entering combat, while improving their ganking effectiveness.

ㅤㅤ [Skill 1] (~)

Slow Duration: 0.5s >> 0.75s

Attack Speed Boost per Stack: 5%-8% >> 7%-10%

Max Stacks: 5 >> 3

III. Battlefield Adjustments

ㅤ Battlefield Effect Test

New Battlefield Effects are here! Visuals related to this gameplay are in testing and do not represent final quality. We will continue to optimize gameplay, values, and visuals. We hope you'll try them out and share your feedback with us.

We will make the relevant gameplay available at a later time after this week's patch update.

The battlefield effects tested in this patch are as follows:

Glowing Lantern: Periodically, a random lane is selected, and one hero from each team in that lane becomes the Lantern Bearer. The first team to defeat the enemy Lantern Bearer within the time limit earns a team-wide reward and lights the Golden Lantern at their Base.

[Golden Turret] (~)

We've noticed that teams falling behind early had difficulty making a comeback in this mode. To keep Turret gold rewards high without making matches too long, we've adjusted Turret defense mechanics.

Removed Effect: Extra HP for Inner Turrets and Base Turrets.

Added Effect: All Turrets gain significantly increased Hybrid Defense during the first 12 minutes.

[Healing Turtle] (~)

We've noticed that the income from killing the Turtle in a lane was significantly lower than that from a minion wave, leaving the defending team at an additional economic disadvantage.

Therefore, we've significantly increased the Gold and EXP from killing an enemy Turtle. This income is shared among allied heroes within range and now roughly matches that of a minion wave.

[u/Arc_7]

Belericking back, Belericking harder

Natalia got that Lance s2 thingie, altho ult, and full invis. Also her new voice lines are more cultist and less disillusioned. That's pretty darn cool.

Also personally I don't like the whole thing they have with turrets becoming stronger all the time until a specific duration, cuz yeah it leads to more balance and comeback room, it makes games drag on longer

[u/doctor-what-the-hail]

Lukas is just winning again and again

[u/Cute-Mycologist-6849 → u/doctor-what-the-hail]

on exp i guess with sustain build , no full damage

[u/Cute-Mycologist-6849]

masha is buffed in disguise , that ultimate damage doesnot even matter that much as the 1 sec stun is much more valuable

[u/Vast-Technology-2150]

I just want to ask, does her conceal decay even if you're not within enemy vision, like how her old passive works or no?

[u/Mission-Age-3922]

Who is Dori

[u/Arc_7 → u/Mission-Age-3922]

New upcoming hero.

[u/Content-Bus2167]

Well, well, well who could've thought that nerfing Aldous dmg was a good idea, huh moneyton? 

And took them long enough to add something so simple to Masha, reset the wound mark after each skill. Holyyyyy Ik MT is usually slowpoke, but sometimes feels like ragebait

[u/15354iggttyytruuhh]

[u/ProcedureIll2894]

As a masha main, she is already very strong. Interesting choice to buff her further. Does she have a skin coming up? 🤔

[u/absolute_peam]

OH MY FUCKING GOD THEY RUINED NATALIA

[u/Udon_Buddy4456 → u/absolute_peam]

yall need actually need to learn how to read.
It is full on INVISIBILITY. The game refers conceal as invisibility

[u/absolute_peam → u/Udon_Buddy4456]

i know it's a huge thing, but removing the basic attack immunity from her second skill? removing silence debuff from her enhanced BA? enhanced BA only triggers when the mark is full by staying close to an enemy long enough? im not buying it, really.

[u/Udon_Buddy4456 → u/absolute_peam]

but she also got a lot of useful new gimmicks in return. yall gotta chill out lmao. the revamp literally came out a few hours ago. Give it some time. I have a feeling this will be great

[u/absolute_peam → u/Udon_Buddy4456]

i think so... maybe you're right

[u/False-Razzmatazz-839 → u/absolute_peam]

I hope* so

[u/Derpotology → u/absolute_peam]

Skill 3 is now invincible. She's going to be the counter to basic attacks heroes since smoke will now be able to follow her attacks.

[u/Comfortable_Long_824 → u/absolute_peam]

Still not invis still won't be good nothing changes
