## New Features and Optimizations

### Battle Adjustments

#### Heroes

1. Yong
	* Remade the Tactical Skill - Springboard and replaced it with Blinding Mark.
	* Blinding Mark: Yong uses Tactical Scope for reconnaissance, marking enemies within the frontal area. Marked enemies experience a brief electromagnetic interference that reduces their movement speed. When a marked enemy is attacked by a squadmate, the EMP effect momentarily disrupts their vision and removes the mark.

	* Significantly increased the movement speed of Tactical Skill - Wrecking Duckball upon casting.
3. Sunil
	* Slightly increased the damage bonus of Ultimate - Hologram Guide.
4. Beau
	* Reduced the damage decay of Tactical Skill - Frenzy Blast. The edge of the grenade explosion deals more damage when hitting the enemy.
	* The "sub-grenades" within the Ultimate - Cluster Grenade explodes simultaneously now.
5. MK.R
	* Greatly increased the damage of Tactical Skill - Fatal Volley and added the rockets that can be cast.
6. Ceanna
	* Optimized the casting experience of Tactical Skill - Restoration Field. Players can now cast the skill swiftly anywhere on the battlefield.
7. Maggie
	* Increased the cooldown duration of Tactical Skill - Tactical Roll and reduced the roll distance.
	* Reduced the duration of Ultimate - Supersonic Surge
8. Phantom
	* Greatly reduced the duration of Tactical Skill - Portable Scout after marking the enemy.
