Game Balance

Read more about our design philosophy on game balance, and use Drachbot to see mastermind, unit, and spell win rates and pick rates!

Masterminds

Cartel

Income penalty on wave 11: -40 → -39

Slightly low pick rate, low win rate.

Champion

Income penalty on wave 11: -14 → -15

High pick rate, slightly high win rate.

Chaos

Starting gold: 5 → 4

Slightly high pick rate, high win rate.

Miner

Starting gold: -14 → -15

Slightly high pick rate, high win rate.

Moneylender

Borrow ratio increased on waves 5-19 by an average of 29%

Slightly low pick rate and win rate.

Legion Spells

Divine Blessing

Health: 1900 → 1850

Slightly high pick win rate and win rate.

Pawn Shop

Gold: 70 → 68

Slightly high pick rate and win rate.

Magic Lamp

• Gold: 15 → 13

• Bug fix: you can no longer roll Magic Lamp with Magic Lamp

Very high pick rate and slightly high win rate.

Vampire

Lifesteal and spell vamp: 29% → 30%

Low win rate.

Fighters

Peewee

DPS decreased by 4.3%

Veteran

Health decreased by 1.5%

High win rate.

Bone Warrior

Health decreased by 6.7%

Slightly high pick rate and win rate.

Pyro

Attack speed increased by 2%

Slightly low pick rate and win rate.

Tempest

• AdjustedMachine GunnerDamage decreased by 6.7%

• Machine Gunner: Now also hits flying units

Leviathan

• AdjustedBombardierDamage decreased by 9%

• Bombardier: Now also hits flying units

The ground-only effect of these abilities wasn’t well understood by players or particularly interesting. It was also unintuitive how Tempest and Leviathan were weak on wave 17, despite being perfectly-typed there.

Sea Serpent / Deepcoiler

Attack speed increased by 1.6%

Slightly low pick rate and win rate.

Pipsqueak

Attack speed decreased by 2.1%

High pick rate and slightly high win rate.

Honeyflower / Deathcap

Health increased by 2.2%

lightly low pick rate and win rate.

Mercenaries

Mimic

HP and attack speed decreased by 1.7%

High win rate. The rework from last patch was a success in terms of making Mimic more versatile, but it's a bit too strong.

Siege Ram

Health increased by 0.9%.

Low usage rate.

Kraken

Health decreased by 1.3%

Slightly high usage rate and win rate. Shifting power from Kraken to Siege Ram.

Waves

Wave 12: Mantises

Health increased by 0.8%

A small nudge to make it more competitive with wave 13.

Wave 19: Dire Toads

Attack speed decreased by 1.6%

Wave 19 is slightly too lethal.

Classic Balance Changes

PvE

• Slightly increased propensity to income send + king up in the early game

• Decreased propensity to income send + king up after a long save

• Increased mercenary send variety

Balance Watchlist

The dev team is constantly monitoring game balance, between looking at data and listening to community feedback. If anything is being more closely monitored than usual, it will be listed in this Balance Watchlist section. For this patch, the following are on the watchlist:

• Strong: Redraw, Angler

• Weak: Proton, Goblin Copter

Improvements

• Improved Mimic description and added Giga Mimic ability description

• Fixed a bug where unintended characters were allowed in usernames

• Improved matchmaking to favor lower MMR range differential over higher parity games

• Fixed descriptions for classic ranks

• Added a tooltip when hovering the Classic queue, that shows the description of the current hot mode.

• Fixed some display issues with hp/mana regen
