Cast Times & Delays
We implemented a new animation system to have gameplay effects line up better with their respective animations. Most abilities were unaffected by the new system, while some proved challenging and buggy. While we are still working on Boris’ E ability having an unintentional cast delay, all others have been fixed and improved.
Boris
Maul (RMB):
- Mauling while tethered will no longer make the animation jagged and sometimes cause him to fly away.
Gideon

GRIM.exe
DEFLECT.exe (RMB):

Khaimera

Muriel
Alacrity (RMB):
- Fixed an issue that was causing the ability to give decaying movement speed, instead of its intended flat amount.

Jar of Hearts
There are limited defensive options with Physical Power and Attack Speed items when it comes to mitigating Energy Damage, and Jar of Hearts provided a good opportunity to provide that choice.
