The new hero presale begins on July 31. Official launch on August 6th. Launch week 30% Diamonds OFF. Hero Feature: A swift and dauntless fighter who battles with the help of the Desert Power.

Sand Walk

liquipedia ↗

Khaleed accumulates Desert Power while moving. After Desert Power is fully charged, Khaleed will slide on sand, increasing Movement Speed and enhancing his next Basic Attack. With the enhanced Basic Attack, Khaleed dashes to the target and raises a wave of surging sand, dealing damage to the target and enemies behind and leaving a pool of sand. Khaleed gains Movement Speed on the sand pool while his enemies are slowed on it.

Desert Tornado

liquipedia ↗

Khaleed shoots sand knives, dealing damage to nearby enemies. Upon hitting the enemy, he leaps one time in the movement direction and casts this skill again for a maximum of 3 times.

Quicksand Guard

liquipedia ↗

Khaleed protects himself with the power of quicksand restoring HP and Desert Power and reducing damage taken. Meanwhile, quicksand appears under his feet, slowing nearby enemies.

Raging Sandstorm

liquipedia ↗

Khaleed summons a sandstorm and rushes toward a designated place, gaining Control Immunity, dealing damage to enemies on the path and constantly pushing them. Upon arriving at the destination, Khaleed shakes the ground, dealing great damage to enemies within the range and stunning them.

Yu Zhong hero Adjusted

Adjustments applied to Cursing Touch.

Cursing Touch

All Documented Modifications (2)

Designer Note

Yu Zhong's performance on the Advanced Server shows that it is quite difficult for players to trigger the Sha Residue eruption, thus we have set high benefits for this effect. However, we have found that about twice as many players as before are able to utilize this mechanism. To deal with the balance problem caused by the frequent high HP restoration, we have adjusted the HP restoration amount. Meanwhile, we have slightly reduced the Movement Speed gain from the fully-charged Sha Essence to ease the problem.

Cursing Touch

HP Restoration from each stack consumption reduced from 8% of lost HP → 6% Movement Speed gain reduced from 40% → 30%

Designer Note

Since the suppression effect of Kaja's ultimate cannot be purified, we've found that he becomes quite difficult for players to deal with and his burst capability is overpowered in the early game. Thus we have reduced his crowd control area and early game burst damage, while having his sustained damage capability strengthened.
