Recap Patch Notes 2.1.88

Without further ado, let's get straight to the main discussion: the complete details of patch notes 2.1.88. Please read carefully so you can adapt to the new meta:

META Season 41 (S41)

The VCGamers discussion will start with the most crucial one, namely the META that applies in Season 41. This way, all Vicigers will have an idea about the theme of this update.

So in this patch note, Moonton stated that now it's the turn of the era of the roamers. It's no surprise that various "cave" tank and support heroes are starting to gain attention.

In order to be able to "graze" again, some have received buffs and nerfs, and even revamps! To make it more META, blessing roam and several other... defense items also refreshed.

Moonton designed all of this specifically to pamper roaming users—this role has the smallest population. Basically, if you're a roaming player, you should definitely stay tuned this season!

New Rotation

Additionally, you should understand that there's been a change in the jungle creep scheme. To reduce the chaotic meta, all creeps will spawn together at the start of the game.

Not only that, green creeps in the early game can also immediately make the jungler rise to level 2. That way, the enemy team (especially roamers) has a hard time guessing which buff to take first.

To further suppress the chaotic meta, Retribution's damage has also been significantly increased. This way, junglers won't be stuck in one farming spot for too long.

Global Hero Buffs and Nerfs

Next, we'll continue with the list of heroes that Moonton has tweaked. Following the latest META, a total of 42 heroes have undergone changes, with the following details:

Buffs

• Akai
• Angela
• Argus
• Atlas
• Aulus
• aurora
• Carmilla
• Cici
• chips
• Edith
• Estes
• Eudora
• Floryn
• Gatotkacha
• Hanzo
• Hylos
• Johnson
• Khufra
• Ling
• Mathilda
• Minotaur
• Rafaela
• Ruby
• Saber
• Yin

Nerf

• Claude
• Freya
• Gloo
• Harleys
• Hilda
• Kale
• Khaleed
• Leomord
• Paquito
• Phoveus
• Zhu Xin
• Suyou

Adjust

• Balmond
• Diggie
• Grock
• Marcel
• Tigreal

Local Hero Buff

What's unique about this season is Moonton's "ngidea" to introduce additional localized adjustments. By local, we mean tier-based adjustments.

So, going forward, in certain tiers, some heroes will have different attributes. They could be stronger (get buffs), or they could be weaker (nerfs). 

Now, this adjustment only applies to the Mythical Honor range. Therefore, the high-rank hero pool will differ from the low-mid rank. The following heroes will be buffed:

• Alpha
• Cecilion
• Dyroth
• Edith
• Melissa

Eye Icon Mechanic Optimization

Well, this is the complaint of upper-tier players. The eye icon mechanic that indicates invisibility when entering a bush can be a very obvious sign.

This is commonly used by high-tier players to identify enemies hiding in the bushes. Seeing this concern, Moonton has now fixed the mechanic.

Blessing Roaming

Roam blessings have also been adjusted. Now, any blessing can earn EXP and gold from all currently available roam farming methods.

Whether it's dealing damage (skills, basic attacks, or passives), unlocking vision, or sharing from laning minions, Moonton has reduced the gains by almost half to prevent imbalance.

Blessing Dire Hit's scheme has been revamped. Now, the user must move to accumulate true damage stacks. These will automatically trigger upon hitting the target hero.

Finally, Blessing Conceal also received a significant buff in the form of cooldown reduction (CD). This will allow for more frequent setups for roaming Ciduk montages.

Items Adjustment

It would feel incomplete if a new META didn't touch on equipment, right? To that end, Moonton has also made minor adjustments to several specific items, as follows:

• Rapid Boots: received an adjustment, reducing movement speed. However, Moonton removed its passive, which could remove the movement speed boost effect when taking damage.;
• Berserker Fury: The damage was nerfed, but the passive was revamped so it can deal true damage based on critical hits.

Brawl Mode Changes

In addition to the various macro and micro issues mentioned above, one important mode also received a major update. Yes, none other than the credit score farming mode: Brawl.

Brawl now has a completely different look and feel than before. Not only that, but many of its mechanics have been changed and brought into line with classic ranked matches.

For example, Flying Cloud can transport us directly to the mid zone. There are also several other attribute changes. Here are the details and a complete summary:

• Equipment can now still be purchased after a few seconds of leaving the base (as long as you haven't entered combat);
• The barrel has a usage duration of 30 seconds, with the CD for 60 seconds;
• Some adjustments for Brawl-specific heroes and minions.

Other Meso

Moonton feels that macro and micro aspects are still lacking. Therefore, several other meso aspects (features that don't directly impact gameplay) are being improved:

• Moonton improved the highlight feature which is now more solid;
• Improve hero control experience;
• Improve aim using Skill Wheel;
• Optimized Custom UI to be able to be set directly in the match (no need to wait for the game to finish anymore);
• Improved visual effects of skills, skins, and the selection screen of several heroes;
• Adjusted hero difficulty level on attribute tab.
