Hero Adjustments

I. Kylin Zhang

• Slightly reduced the airborne height caused by horizontal strikes while his Ultimate is active.

• Optimized the timing for canceling charged attacks while Kylin Zhang's Ultimate [Qilin Slash] is active. Moves after each slash can now be canceled in advance.

• Optimized the sound effects of the charged attacks [Wrath Slash] under his Ultimate [Qilin Slash: Rend] and optimized how his echo performs when attacked.

//Dev Note: Currently, Kylin Zhang is a bit overpowered in group battles with his Ultimate frequently knocking enemies airborne. Additionally, he often loses sight of his enemies because his attacks send enemies too far away. To improve the experience of playing with and against Kylin Zhang, we have slightly reduced the knockback on his attacks while his Ultimate is active.

II. Tarka Ji

• After activating the Ultimate, the Rage consumed by Tarka Ji's 2nd-stage dodge (elbow strike) attack has been reduced by 20%.

III. Tianhai

• Removed the cooldown on Tianhai's [Jump and Stomp] for all Ultimates. Instead, Tianhai can use [Jump and Stomp] up to 2 times, and can use them one after the other.

• Tianhai's [Jump and Stomp] move can now be canceled with a jump.
