The prize pools for both Chromatic Ball and Lucky Ball also underwent following changes:
A. Removed a lot of Trial Card-type items;
B. Removed some appearance items available in the Store.

GAME BALANCE MODIFICATIONS

1. Skylark
Fans of Skylark are enamored with its firing ability on the move, but not so much with its rather mundane damage output and survivability. Therefore, we made the following change:
A. Increased Stab's damage vs. mecha for from 80 to 86.

2. Hotsteel
Because Hotsteel's mobility and missile velocity are subpar, it lacks effective counters in non-melee combat. To improve its overall combat capability, we made the following changes:
A. Decreased cooldown for Explosive Charge from 13s to 11s.
B. Decreased fuel cost for Rocket Propulsion from 20/s to 15/s.
C. Increased velocity for Tornado Missile from 92m/s to 104m/s.

3. Firefox
Firefox is a fire-suppression mecha, but the current version of Firefox is still unable to gain advantage in a straight-up firefight. To improve Firefox's damage output, we made the following changes:
A. Increased Firestorm MG’s damage vs. mecha from 48 to 51.
B. Appropriately decreased the spread for Firestorm MG.

4. Andromeda
Andromeda's Turbojet defense module provided too much mobility boost. To balance the module, we made the following change:
A. Decreased cooldown bonus to Swift Dodge provided by the module from 1s/2s/3s to 0.5s/1s/1.5s.

1. Due to the popular feedback and support, Team Deathmatch is now available from 12pm to 12am (local time) on all servers.
