Chronology
From The Designers,
The main adjustments in this patch are as follows:
1. Airborne duration optimizations for some heroes:
We've been receiving feedback that it's easy to be continuously controlled by enemies in MLBB. This is because, in MLBB, most CC effects can be influenced by Resilience, but Airborne cannot. Thus, we aim to adjust the duration of some Airborne effects. This will make the control duration and visual effects of Airborne more appropriate. Additionally, we will provide extra compensation for some heroes who are currently underperforming on the Official Server.
In future hero designs, we will be more cautious about using Airborne effects.
2. Enhancement on Regen and HP adjustment for non-Marksman heroes:
We've noticed that some heroes have significant lane disparities in the early game, requiring frequent recalls to avoid being killed under their turrets. Additionally, ganking the Gold Lane in the early game provides notably higher rewards compared to other lanes. We hope these two adjustments will make early-game lane confrontations more strategic and balance the risks and rewards of ganking different lanes in the early game.
3. Buffs on unpopular heroes & equipment and nerfs on popular heroes:
In this patch, we have appropriately strengthened some heroes that were less popular across all ranks, hoping to improve their performance. At the same time, we have moderately toned down some heroes that have been excessively popular recently.
For a few heroes that are currently only slightly overperforming in Mythical Glory, we will continue to observe before considering any additional adjustments.
I.Revamped Hero[edit]
Granger, Death Chanter
REVAMP
Hero Features: A demon hunter who can have infinite firepower by killing enemies.
Granger's unique Demon Hunter Gun and Cannon are powered by Demonic Energy. Killing enemies increases its Energy cap and restores the Energy.
His Skill 1 and Ultimate have no skill cooldown, and he can continuously fire as long as they have enough Energy. With some buffing on the laning ability, he will fight as a Marksman in the Gold lane. We have also upgraded Granger's visual and audio resources. He will play his violin during the recall.
Also, he can transform into a tank after using his Ultimate in his Megatron skin.
Passive - 
Capriccio
Each Minion / Creep kill will permanently increase the Energy cap of Granger's Gun and Cannon, and instantly restore their Energy. He can continuously fire as long as they have enough Energy. Both of his weapons recover a certain percentage of Energy per second.
Cooldown Reduction gained by Granger will be converted to Attack.
Skill 1 - 
Rhapsody
The new Rhapsody still shoots six times in the target direction, with the last shot being a critical hit. However, it no longer has a cooldown and can be used repeatedly as long as there's Energy in his Gun.
During the firing, Granger gains extra Movement Speed, deals increased damage to Minions, and can use his Ultimate during the process.
Skill 2 - 
Rondo
Granger dashes in the target direction, instantly restoring Energy for his Gun. Each time Rhapsody hits, the cooldown of Rondo will be reduced.
Ultimate - 
Death Sonata
The new Death Sonata can be cast more flexibly. Granger can roll in a target direction after each shot. Like Rhapsody, it no longer has a cooldown and can be used repeatedly as long as there's Energy in his Cannon.
II.Hero Adjustments[edit]
Clint
BUFF
Optimized the casting experience of Clint's skills to improve his adaptability, while slightly reducing his laning phase pressure and late-game attributes for balance.
Attributes
HP Growth: 170 >> 145
Physical Attack Growth: 14 >> 12
Skill 1 - 
Quick Draw ADJUST
Reduced the foreswing time by 50%.

Cyclops
BUFF
Cyclops' Ultimate Sphere moves at a slow speed. Although it is designed to have a longer Immobilizing Time the farther it goes, if the distance is too great, Cyclops usually cannot follow up with other skills.
That's why we are increasing its flight speed while adjusting other skill values.
Additionally, Cyclops' Skill 1 and Ultimate have a longer cast range, while Skill 2 has a shorter range. We will also increase the range of Skill 2 while slightly reducing its damage to balance it out.
Skill 2 -

Damage: 200-350 + 50% of Total Magic Power >> 200-325 + 40% of Total Magic Power

BUFF
We hope to reduce Joy's damage time to increase her burst capabilities and make her more like an Assassin.
Skill 2 - 
Meow, Rhythm of Joy! BUFF
Skill Interval: 1s >> 0.8s
Fanny
ADJUST
We consider Fanny to be a high-difficulty hero with great potential. Therefore, we've fixed the issue where her Ultimate was triggering Skill 1 indiscriminately, and reduced the damage of directly casting her Ultimate. However, considering Fanny's current win rate isn't very high, we've also increased her sustained combat ability.
Attributes BUFF
Energy Regen: 3 >> 5
Passive - 
Air Superiority BUFF
Energy Restored per Prey Mark: 7 >> 8

Xavier lacks self-protection when enemies are in close range. We've shortened the foreswing of Xavier's Skill 2, allowing him to quickly execute a Skill 1&2 combo to immobilize enemies even at close range.

Reduced the foreswing time by 50%.
Base Damage: 200-300 + 60% of Total Magic Power >> 220-340 + 65% of Total Magic Power

Skill 4 -

BUFF
As the meta evolves, Gord's competitiveness in the Mid Lane has gradually declined. We are attempting to improve his competitiveness by optimizing the hit experience of his Skill 1.
Skill 1 - 
Mystic Projectile BUFF
As the meta evolves, Gord's competitiveness in the Mid Lane has gradually declined. We are attempting to improve his competitiveness by optimizing the hit experience of his Skill 1.
III. Battle Spell[edit]
Regen
BUFF
We've noticed that some heroes have a significant advantage in the early laning phase (due to the current meta, hero counter relationships, etc.). Therefore, we aim to enhance the sustainability of some weaker heroes in the early to mid game, while still maintaining opportunities for stronger heroes to secure kills against them. As a result, we've boosted the effect of Regen in the early game, while trying to keep its effect in mid and late game consistent with previous versions. We will continue to monitor the impact of this change and make additional adjustments in future patches if necessary. We have also decided to increase the Mana provided by Regen, allowing early-game combat to continue without being cut short due to Mana shortage.
HP Regen BUFF
18% of Max HP >> 720 + 6% of Max HP
Mana Regen BUFF
9% Max Mana >> 18% Max Mana
IV. Equipment Adjustments[edit]
Malefic Gun
REWORK
We've noticed that most Marksmen have limited equipment choices. After purchasing their regular choices of three pieces providing Attack Speed & Attack Effect or Attack Speed & Crit Chance, they typically choose one defensive equipment and Malefic Roar, leaving no equipment slot for Malefic Gun.
We have adjusted the attributes of Malefic Gun, aiming to create an alternative option to Malefic Roar in certain situations while significantly improving its versatility.
Attributes
+40 Physical Attack
+20% Attack Speed
Unique Passive - Armor Buster
Increases Basic Attack range by 15%. When hitting a target, gains 10% Movement Speed for 1s.
Malefic Roar
BUFF
Unique Attribute Replaced with Unique Passive - Armor Buster BUFF
+30% Physical Penetration
Unique Passive - Breaker
When attacking an enemy, gains 0.1% (previously 0.125%) extra Physical Penetration for each point of the enemy's Physical Defense, capped at 30% (previously 40%).
Windtalker
BUFF
Increased Crit Chance for equipment with Attack Speed and Crit Chance.
Attributes BUFF
Crit Chance: 10% >> 20%
Removed: +20 Physical Attack
Price
1820 >> 1880
V. Battlefield Adjustments[edit]

We will make similar adjustments to other Roles to narrow the early game gap with Marksmen and enhance the feeling of level-up growth.

Fighter Heroes: Base HP reduced by 178, HP Growth increased by 15.
Assassin Heroes: Base HP reduced by 159, HP Growth increased by 15.
