All hero changes in patch 1.8.66

Patch 1.8.66 changes 24 heroes. Full change details


From The Designers

In this patch, we've improved the Move and Attack control experience. It now feels smoother to Move and Attack with the same DPS. Because it increases the late-game damage of  Basic Attack heroes, we have nerfed some equipment and Battle Spells that boost Attack Speed. Meanwhile, we've adjusted the attributes of most Marksmen to match their strength (e.g., higher early-game Attack and lower HP) to bridge their gap during early-game 1v1 fights. We've also made adjustments to some Exp Laners to give them a chance against Fighter with  War Axe.


I. New & Revamped Heroes

[New Hero: Chip, Phase Technician]

Hero Feature: A Support/Tank hero who can use portals to roam the battlefield and support his allies. Available on 3/16 (Server Time).

Chip is a carefree, genetically enhanced fox from Laboratory 1718. He got his name from his love of snacking on chips while lying on his hovercraft.

Chip is a Support/Tank hero. He can utilize his hovercraft to teleport around (and to slack off). His Special Skill allows him to quickly traverse the map, and his Ultimate allows him to gather all his teammates in one spot.

Passive - Snack Time!
  • Chip starts eating potato chips when out of combat, regenerating lost HP after finishing a whole bag.
Skill 1 - Crash Course
  • Chip rams his hovercraft into the ground, dealing damage and applying marks on enemy heroes while gaining a shield.
  • Chip's next Basic Attack will become ranged, hitting all nearby enemies with marks and stunning them.
Skill 2 - Overtime
  • Chip rushes forward, gaining increased Movement Speed and causing his next Basic Attack to charge at the target, dealing damage and knocking them back.
Ultimate - Shortcut
  • Chip drops the Main Portal on an enemy hero, and also creates Connecting Portals near allied heroes and behind the allied Base.
  • Connecting Portal: Heroes can teleport from Connecting Portals to the Main Portal and gain Burst Movement Speed, or stand on the Main Portal for a period of time to return to the Connecting Portal they came from.
  • Main Portal: Deals damage to nearby targets after a delay and slows them. Main Portal inherits a portion of Chip's Attributes.
Special Skill- Why Walk?
  • Chip has 4 Beacons on the map.
  • Chip can stand on a Beacon to enable this skill and then use it to teleport to any other Beacon.


II. Hero Adjustments

III. Battlefield Adjustments

Limited-Time Map

The 2024 ALLSTAR Theme Map, "Euphora" will be available for a limited time!

We have designed the new event map based on the ALLSTAR music theme and revamped the background music and sound effects accordingly.

We'll also be introducing a revamped Lord in this map!

Attack Speed

In this patch, we have optimized the growth of Attack Speed by removing the Attack Speed Threshold limitation, and now every 1% of Attack Speed will result in an actual Attack Speed gain.

With this optimization, the growth of Attack Speed will be smoother instead of abruptly changing after reaching a certain Attack Speed. This also solves the problem of some heroes actually gaining 5.0 Attack Speed at 4.0 Attack Speed in the panel.

Turret Change
Gold Lane Outer Turret BUFF ↑
  • Damage Reduction for allied heroes when near an Energy Shield: 30% >> 35%
