Balance Philosophy

For each hero in B and C tier, slightly buff one part of the kit and slightly nerf another. The goal is to reduce the unfair parts of a hero while lessening their weaknesses.

Proposed Changes

Each entry lists the move or ability affected, the adjustment itself, and — where the analysis states one — the problem it is meant to solve and the reasoning behind it.

  1. Palatine Fang

    Nerf
    Proposed adjustment
    Swing rate decreased from 1.18 to 1.05 swings per second.
    Current issue
    She can be really efficient at getting kills at close range.
  2. Projected Edge

    Buff
    Proposed adjustment
    Projectile damage increased from 70 to 85.
    Current issue
    She should become more threatening at a distance.
