Hey everybody,
another week, another sweet update! This time we’re adding the much-requested Pings for 2v2 and lots of balancing changes, that will help keep the meta fresh and the battles brutal!
In terms of Pings, there are 3 different varieties to choose from. The different types will help you coordinate with your partner for attack and defense, or simply help you point out things of interest on the map. We’re very curious how you guys will use these, and to hear your feedback on them!
Next up are the balancing changes, of which there are quite a lot again. We’ve been trying to identify more underused units, like the Frostgoyle, Oracle, Mulch Digger, or Marksman, and gave them a nice little buff. We’ve also identified some overused tactics, like the turret+aimbot+relocate plays, which we balanced out a bit, to have less of an advantage, but still be usable as a tactical choice.
We're also balancing 2v2 further, to give players more of an defender's advantage at their towers, and to give them a better chance to push an enemy wave back, even when it's reached a decent size.
Check out the full changelist below:
