Hi Gladiators, While the early levels are easier and fun for a new player, the later ones are just boring after mastering the mechanics. This patch aims to make the game a bit more challenging on the late game, specifically addressing the top ranks.

It also expands on the controls, providing you an escape from the nasty chained attacks (Looking at you Leopard).

#1 Increase AI aggressiveness for later levels by :

  • Buffing the AI equipment throw frequency.

  • Buffing the AI group targeting. More enemies will try to duel you as you progress in the glory ranks.

  • Buffing later levels.

#2 Expand the controls with a Roll. When grounded, press SPACE to roll and control the direction with the movement keys. It should help you get away from sticky situations or from attack chains. The AI will learn how to roll in later levels, so executing them with an over-head attack will not be as easy as it was.

#3 Misc :

  • Nerf the “Axe and slide” combo.

  • Remove the 30 fps lock.

  • Fix the allies targeting you.

There will be no reset of the top ranks for this patch, but there might be one in the near future depending on the result of these changes.

Thank you Gladiators and keep dominating the arena!
