King of the Hill Season 40: "Season of the Sprint"

• Seasonal Mutation: "Season of the Sprint" •

"The Season of Inflation" has ended! In that past season, item prices (starting from Tier 2) slightly increased while the shop upgrade cost was reduced. These changes will remain in the game for now.

Welcome to "The Season of Sprint"!

Seasonal Mutation: This season, the number of tokens earned in Sprint Mode has increased significantly! We always welcome your feedback on seasonal mutations. Regularly—usually about a week before the end of a season—we host voice chats with players on our Discord server to discuss balance and upcoming features. Join us!

• Key Seasonal Additions •

• Token gains in the "Sprint" mode (both with and without food) have significantly increased this season.
• "Mass Taunt" returns! We’ve reworked its mechanics: The duration now depends on how many Tanks you have on your team. The muitation's cooldown increases with each use in combat. At the end of each battle, the cooldown resets to default.
• When hovering over the puny human XP bar, a tooltip now shows how much XP is gained and how much is needed to reach the next level. This should help better plan runs and calculate the optimal number of Knowledge Tokens more precisely.

• Mode Balance •

• In the "Mutagens" mode, token rewards have been significantly reduced at all levels.
• The cost of "More Altars" in the mutation tree has been reduced:
  1. Level 1: 50 ➔ 40 tokens
  2. Level 2: 100 ➔ 80 tokens

• Brawl Mode Balance •

• "Strike a Light" buffed: 700 ➔ 900
• "Mage Gene" now deals more damage: 75 ➔ 100
• "Fast Towers" build faster at level 1: 100% ➔ 150%
• "Mglw'nafh" buffed:
  1. Level 1: 50% HP ➔ 60%
  2. Level 2: 70% HP ➔ 80%

• Mutations Balance •

• New "Mass Taunt" parameters:
  1. For every 3 Tanks in the team, "Mass Taunt" duration increases by 2 seconds
  2. Each use of "Mass Taunt" increases the cooldown by 3 seconds (cooldown resets at the end of each battle)
• "Strike a Light" buffed: 1000 ➔ 1200
• "Soul Destruction" now reduces magic resistance by 50% ➔ 60%, but the duration reduced from 5 ➔ 4 seconds
• "Mage Gene" now deals more damage: 75 ➔ 100
