## Miscellaneous

* Fixed an issue with TP Gains/Losses when teams that were expected to win were on a certain side of the map.

* “*Due to this change, we will be doing a “Soft” reset of everyone about 100 TP in Diamond 1 and Grandmasters. This reset will be a flat % reduction that varies by the platform and the queue type. This is meant to reduce players who gained a large amount of points they should not have earned while still maintaining the current ranking. As an example, someone with 2,000 TP in Conquest Ranked on PC will be reduced by 82.5%, reducing that player to 350 TP.*”
* PC

* Conquest Ranked: -82.5%
* Joust Ranked: -92.5%
* Duel Ranked: – 80%

* Console (To be applied in 3.10 for Console)

* Conquest Ranked: -75%
* Joust Ranked: -50%
* Duel Ranked: -75%

* Increase the weighting from +- 5 to +-8 for TP gains when teams are unevenly matched.

* “*To explain this change we want to give clarity to how TP as a whole works. Every game the amount of TP earned or lost is modified based on the expected outcome of a match was as well as how far a player's MMR is from the division they “should” be in. All players begin at 11 TP and then lose or gain points based off these metrics and are then adjust up to +-5 based on how fair the match was (+-0 if 50/50) and +-6 if you are not in the division your MMR would suggested. In previous patches players could earn +- 5 points based on whether or not they were favored for a given match, and this has been increased to **+- 8**.*”

* Fixed whispers being wiped after every game.
* Fixed Sol's achievement “Disparate” having an incorrect description on Steam.

## Item Changes

###   Gauntlet of Thebes

“*These items aren't seeing as much play as expected, so they are all receiving a small bonus to their primary stat: Health. Health items have high power potential, so adjustments to this tree will be small and careful.*”

* Increased Health from ~~350~~ → 400.

## God Changes

###  Ah Muzen Cab

“*Ah Muzen Cab players have a lot of flexibility on when and where to place Hives, and this reduction should make that process more convenient.*”

* **Hive**

* Cooldown Reduced from ~~16s~~ → 14s.

###  Artemis

* **General**

* Fixed an issue where Calydonian Boar would be untextured on the Recon Artemis Skin.

###  Freya

* **Pulse**

* Fixed an issue with the duration on this ability not matching the buff timer.

###  He Bo

“*He Bo's low cooldowns define him as a mage. Waterspout's reduced mana costs will allow him to better fit this specialty.*”

* **Waterspout**

* Mana cost reduce from ~~70/80/90/100/110~~ → 65/70/75/80/85.

###  Kukulkan

“*Kukulkan excels when he is able to maintain proper spacing between himself and enemies, especially towards the late game. By reducing Slipstreams cooldown per rank Kukulkan will more often have one of his spacing tools available to him.*”

* **Slipstream**

* Reduced Cooldown from ~~15s~~ → 15/14/13/12/11s.

###  Raijin

“*Raijin is a character who has a lot of potential to disrupt and poke out enemies, and when choosing to use his escape ability offensively with Raiju he can have some hefty burst as well. With this change we want to limit the amount of burst that comes from the easiest to confirm combo.*”

* **Thunder Crash**

* Lightning Damage reduced from ~~20/30/40/50/60~~ → 20/25/30/35/40.
* Thunder Damage reduced from ~~40/60/80/100/120~~ → 40/50/60/70/80.

###  Ratatoskr

“*Ratatoskr has had a fairly powerful release, so we are looking to take away some of his power throughout the game. In addition to his hotfix adjustment Dart is seeing a base damage decreased while Flurry is seeing adjustments in its cooldown and protection shred. We will continue to monitor the new Ratatoskr closely to ensure he is in a healthy balance spot.*”

* **Dart**

* Base damage reduced from ~~100/140/180/220/260~~ → 80/120/160/200/240.

* **Flurry**

* Cooldown increased from ~~12s~~ → 14s.
* Protection Debuff Reduced from ~~2/3/4/5/6~~ → 2/2/3/3/4.

###  Susano

“*Storm Kata when combined with Bluestone Pendant was allowing Susano to control the pace of the early game. By removing some of the edge on Storm Kata and removing its ability to proc Bluestone Pendant (and other item effects) twice, players should find more room to play against this mobile assassin.*”

* **Storm Kata**

* Scaling reduced from ~~90%~~ → 80% on both hits.
* No longer procs multiple item affects (like Bluestone Pendant) more than once.
* Fixed an issue with this ability when ranked up mid use.
