Adjustments applied to Nature's Strike, Wrath of Dryad.
In order to increase the utility of the Ultimate, we've reduced its control difficulty and early game cooldown.
We hope Barats performance will be more balanced both at advantages and disadvantages.
Due to the changes in the latest patch, it is difficult for Bruno to take advantage by aggression. Thus, we've increased his early-game damage in order to help him regain his lane domination.
After the adjustments in the last patch, Granger still had difficulty establishing an advantage in the early game, and was somewhat weak in the late game. So we continue to adjust his damage.
We hope that Karrie can exert her strength earlier in the fight against tank heroes. Therefore, we have adjusted the early-game damage of his Passive.
As the laning difference gradually became clear, Ling's mobility and high burst made him overpowered when jungling, especially in the high-rank matches, so we have to nerf him again. "Sorry, bro."
We've weakened his ability to take damage and restrict enemies.
We've weakened his durability and benefits of charging, which will lead to a high requirement of the skill hit rate, while his attacks still have a great impact on enemies.
We have adjusted the damage increase of each stack of Power of Wildness, while we have kept the effect of full stacks the same.
Balance adjustments applied to Lunox.
