A mage wielding the power of the galaxy who can use skills freely in her domain.
Yve gains Galactic Power when dealing damage to enemy heroes with "Void Blast" and "Void Crystal". which is capped at 10 stacks. She will consume all the stored Galactic Power when she creates the starfield with her Ultimate, gaining an additional number of casts in the starfield accordingly.
Yve detonates Galactic Energy in a designated area, dealing Magic Damage to the targets. The targets in the central area will take extra Magic Damage.
Yve summons a void crystal in a designated area, dealing Magic Damage to the targets hit. Use Again: The crystal radiates materialized energy in the designated direction, dealing Magic Damage continuously to the targets hit and slowing them.
Yve creates a starfield in a designated direction. During this period, she can cast the Ultimate by tapping the screen. Enemies that come in contact with the starfield will be slowed. (This only takes effect once on the same target.)
Tap: Deals Magic Damage in a designated area in the starfield.
Slide: Deals Magic Damage continuously to the targets in the designated area and slow them.
During this period, Yve is immune to any airborne effects. The starfield will not be canceled when Yve gets controlled. However, she will not be able to cast in the process. When she is suppressed, the starfield will be canceled.

We have also increased their defense attributes to make them more a Tank than a Fighter. As compensation for damage output, we enhanced their damage when they were equipped with DPS builds.

As a Marksman, Granger only dealt low damage with Basic Attacks, so we increased his Base Basic Attack Damage, hoping that he could use it to achieve higher damage output and to keep him strong enough in the early to mid game.
