Stunlock Studio’s “team arena brawler” has done Battlerite by me. I’ve been dipping back into it with the release of every new champion, and each time I say to myself “ah yeah, this is the update that’s going to get me properly get back into this”. You know what though? I think this is the update that’s going to get me properly back into this.
Today sees the launch of patch 1.4. Matchmaking has been improved, there’s a new cosmetic rewards system and season 1 of competitive play has begun in earnest (we’ve just been in the “pre-season” up till now). More important than all that though is the new melee champion, Jamila the Shadowblade Assassin, whose skill set somehow includes everything I want from a hero in my MOBA-lite-likes.
