    I’m hoping this patch is the perfect balance of making being grouped up midgame not horrible, while still stamping out double soaking (which I find a boring and annoying optimisation).

    Also interested to see the comeback mechanics toned down a touch. The game has felt very yo-yoey to me since the last big patch. You’d often work hard for a midgame lead, misplay one fight and suddenly be behind. Didn’t feel great.

      Yeah it made early game feel a little pointless since like you said an early lead built up on multiple good plays could get completely wiped by 1 death.

      Really happy the dev team has been tweaking things as much as they are and pretty quick to listen to feedback. Even when a buff is a bit strong in one patch I don’t get too annoyed about it since I know they’ll have a fix out pretty quick.

    Think the soul sharing is gonna be in a near perfect spot after this. Good to see some more Yamato nerfs too.
