Introducing a new swoosh visual effect on Sword’s Down Light attack that better telegraphs its hitbox. This change is available now in all queues!

The revised Spear and Blasters Down Air attacks have graduated from Test Features! Both of these Light attacks now have grounded variations when performed close to a platform. 

For more information, check out the Balance section below.

A big thank you to everyone who gave feedback, happy brawling!

Axe

We have changed the Axe Neutral Light and Down Light to fit more squarely into their respective roles with less overlap in threat coverage, requiring a more deliberate choice when selecting these attacks. The Neutral Light now stays closer to the ground throughout the attack and has less vertical threat coverage, allowing players to more reliably contest the attack from above. The Down Light’s movement and threat coverage has been altered so it no longer hits players who are standing on the ground, allowing opponents to more reliably contest this attack from below. The Axe Neutral Air, Side Air, and Down Air have all received a minor decrease in Damage to slow the aerial kit’s overall rate of building damage.

• Neutral Light: Significantly decreased vertical motion during the attack; Decreased vertical threat coverage.
• Down Light: Slightly decreased rear threat coverage; Slightly decreased threat coverage at the bottom of the attack and increased early vertical movement to no longer hit grounded.
• Neutral Air: Decreased Damage from 18 to 17.
• Side Air: Decreased Damage from 19 to 18.
• Down Air: Decreased Damage from a range of 18~13 to a range of 17~13.

Battle Boots 

We have increased the Recover time on miss for the Battle Boots Neutral Air to better match its threat coverage and overall utility, granting a wider window to punish this attack.

• Neutral Air: Increased total Recover time on miss from 10 Fixed/12 Variable to 12 Fixed/12 Variable.

Blasters

The grounded version of Blasters Down Air has graduated from Test Features with some final adjustments to ground detection and setup location. The grounded version provides more reliable coverage when using your Down Air near the stage, and also has a consistent setup location for follow-up attacks.You can hold the DOWN direction to ignore soft platforms for each blast like other similar Down Air attacks.

• Down Air: Now has a grounded version when performed close to a platform.

Cannon 

The Cannon Ground Pound now has less threat coverage in the air and on the ground, allowing players to more easily maneuver around this powerful attack.

• Ground Pound: Decreased threat coverage near the user and threat coverage at the rear of the attack during the aerial blast; Decreased maximum horizontal threat coverage during the grounded blast.

Hammer

We have increased the Hammer Down Light’s Recover time on miss to allow a wider opportunity to punish this combo starter. The Hammer Down Air now has less Force to better match its relatively quick Time to Hit and reliable knockout angle.

• Down Light: Increased total Recover time on miss from 5 Fixed/20 Variable to 6 Fixed/20 Variable.
• Down Air: Decreased Force from 45 Fixed/50 Variable to 45 Fixed/48 Variable.

Katars

We have decreased the vertical movement of the Katars’ Neutral Light’s hurtbox, allowing more attacks to reliably contest the user from the ground.

• Neutral Light: Lowered the Hurtbox during the first swing, allowing players to reliably contest it with a wider selection of attacks.

Rocket Lance

The Rocket Lance Side Light and Down Air have been adjusted so the Down Air can be used as a follow-up attack at all health ranges. To accomplish this, the Side Light now has a consistent setup location that does not change with the opponent’s health and has slightly increased threat coverage near the user. We have delayed the initial acceleration of the Down Air’s Hit Window so it can reach the Side Light’s new setup location, and slightly increased the Hit Window to make up the required distance to the ground in most use cases. The Down Air’s grounded version also has slightly increased threat coverage for more reliable connections near the height threshold. We have decreased the Damage of the Neutral Air and Side Air to offset the increased reliability of the Down Air as a follow-up attack.

• Side Light: Slightly increased threat coverage near the user; New setup location is now constant for all health ranges.
• Neutral Air: Decreased Damage from 17 to 16.
• Side Air: Decreased Damage from 18 to 17.
• Down Air: Increased Hit Window from 9 to 11; Slightly delayed downward acceleration at the start of the Hit Window; Slightly increased vertical threat coverage during a ground collision.

Orb

The Orb Neutral Air now has more Recover time on miss to better match its utility, granting a wider opportunity to punish this attack. The Orb Down Air now has less Damage and greater Recover time on miss to better match its overall utility and threat coverage.

• Neutral Air: Increased total Recover time on miss from 11 Fixed/12 Variable to 13 Fixed/12 Variable.
• Down Air: Decreased Damage from 15 to 14; Increased total Recover time on miss of the aerial versions from 5 Fixed/20 Variable to 7 Fixed/20 Variable; Increased total Recover time on miss for the collision versions from 3 Fixed/18 Variable to 5 Fixed/18 Variable.

Spear 

The Spear Side Air now has greater Stun, allowing for potential follow-up attacks at low health ranges for high Dexterity Legends, to keep better pace with similar Weapons in 1v1 matches. The grounded version of Spear’s Down Air has graduated from Test Features, with significantly greater Recover time on miss and improvements to ground detection.

• Side Air: Increased Stun from 20 to 22.
• Down Air: Now has a grounded version when performed close to a platform. You can hold the DOWN direction to ignore soft platforms like other similar Down Air attacks.

Sword

The Sword Down Light now has slightly greater threat coverage for more reliable use against highly mobile opponents, and the visual effects have been updated to match its current threat coverage.

• Down Light: Slightly increased vertical threat coverage; Slightly increased threat coverage near the user during the middle of the Hit Window; The visual effects have been updated to better match the threat.

Kaya 

Kaya’s Neutral Bow and Down Spear have both received reductions to their Force to better match their total threat coverage and utility.

• Neutral Bow: Decreased Force from 75 Fixed/55 Variable to 70 Fixed/53 Variable.
• Down Spear: Decreased Force from 65 Fixed/51 Variable to 62 Fixed/49 Variable.

Onyx 

We have increased the Minimum Charge time of Onyx’s Down Gauntlets and decreased its Force to better match its overall range and utility.

• Down Gauntlets: Increased Minimum Charge time from 12 to 15; Decreased Force from 85 Fixed/44 Variable to 70 Fixed/43 Variable.

Red Raptor 

Red Raptor’s Down Battle Boots now has greater Recover time on miss to better match its total threat coverage, granting a wider window to punish this attack. Red Raptor’s Neutral Orb now has slightly greater Force to bring its reward more in line with its risk and lack of mobility.

• Down Battle Boots: Increased total Recover time on miss from 20 to 22.
• Neutral Orb: Increased Force from 60 Fixed/50 Variable to 60 Fixed/52 Variable.

Teros 

We have decreased the Force of Teros’ Down Axe to bring this Signature’s knockout potential in line with other similar attacks.

• Down Axe: Decreased Force from a range of 70~60 Fixed/59~45 Variable to a range of 70~60 Fixed/55~45 Variable.

Ulgrim 

Ulgrim’s Neutral Axe and Side Axe now have significantly less Force to better match their overall utility in 2v2 team combos.

• Neutral Axe: Decreased Force from 59 Fixed/53 Variable to 59 Fixed/51 Variable.
• Side Axe: Decreased Force from 66 Fixed/62 Variable to 62 Fixed/56 Variable.

Vivi 

Vivi’s Down Battles Boots now has significantly greater Recover time on miss, allowing a wider window to punish this attack.

• Down Battle Boots: Increased total Recover time from 16 to 20.

Wu Shang

Wu Shang’s Side Gauntlets and Down Gauntlets now have significantly less force to better match their overall utility and threat coverage.

• Side Gauntlets: Decreased Force from 60 Fixed/52 Variable to 60 Fixed/49 Variable.
