What's up gang! Like I said in a previous patch, most of the team is still working on super secret stuff.


(If you want to test that super secret stuff, make sure to sign up here:  https://forms.gle/PEUXrw7ArEBidhaS8 )



BUT the rest of us are COMMITTED to bringing you the updates that we can!! We love OS just as much as you all <3

That being said, today's update features a couple goodies that you might enjoy. (FINALLY, OCTAVIA SKIN!!! STOP TWEETING AT ME!!!)



So let us begin!!

SYSTEM CHANGES
FRIEND TO FRIEND CHAT
YES you can DM your friends in OS! Had a good teammate and want to play with them again? Add them and shoot em a DM directly in the Omega Strikers client!
I swear to god if you use this to be toxic I'll send you to your room and take away your iPad time

IN-GAME HUD UPDATE
Things look a little different, a little slicker in-game now! Check it out 8)
Original HUD can still be used via game settings

MAPS AND MODES
Rotated in :: [REWORKED]Gates of Obscura, Night Market
Gates of Obscura
Goal barrier shape changed
No longer spawns corner portals
No longer spawns additional portals in overtime
Here's what it looks like


Rotated out
Clarion Corp, Ahten City

STRIKERS
System-Wide
LIGHT hits now grant "regeneration lockout" for less time than normal hits. (Regeneration lockout meaning the time it takes until you start to regenerate stagger.)
We expect this change to effect a number of strikers, so we'll be keeping an eye on those impacted to make sure no strikers were caught in the cross fire.
Regeneration lockout from LIGHT hits: 2.375s → 1.625s

Ai.Mi
Ai.Mi enjoyers have worked their way back to above the top of the win rates.
FIREWALL SENTRY [SPECIAL]
Cooldown :: 30s → 35s

Asher
BARRIER BEAM (PRIMARY)
The Core should no longer go through Asher's Primary Shield (I think for real this time) ive written this 90 times dude. yeah but this time I did the fix xdd. Unironically I actually think its fixed. I applied the same fix to the special and it worked too well and I had to pull it out cause it let you insta farm max energy and I was worried about performance. Cause they just hit between each other insanely fast. Truly made unstoppable force vs immovable object xdd

Atlas
The Steadfast Protector has fallen out of favor for a bit, this'll open up more opportunities for his teammates to LIVE.
CELESTIAL INTERVENTION [SPECIAL]
Cooldown :: 50s → 45s

Drek'ar
Drek is sleeper OP and his mains are winning hella much.
LOCK AND LOAD [PRIMARY]
Cooldown 7.5s → 8s

Dubu
Forward Dubu is a menace. Kill him.
Stagger Growth Tier :: 600 → 500

Finii
Finii is kinda on the struggle bus recently.
BIG FINISH [SPECIAL]
Cast range :: 700 → 750

Juliette
Last patch we hit Jules with a couple nerfs and she is still performing a touch below expectations.
Fiery Fist [Primary]
Cooldown 8 → 7.5

Juno
Stepping on them blobbos was hurtin.
STRIKE WITH FRIENDS [PASSIVE]
Blobbo PvP Damage & Knockback :: 165 (+82.5% Power) → 150 (+75% Power)
Core Knockback unchanged

Kazan
Kazan's ban rate was through the ROOFS. We get it, we're bringing him back into the house of the roof he broke. (Does that make sense? Does anyone even read these? Hello?)
CARRIED AWAY / MADDENING DESCENT [OPEN SECONDARY SPECIAL COMBO]
Cooldown :: 15 → 16
PvP Damage & Knockback :: 230 (+115% Power) → 215 (+107.5% Power)
Core Knockback 1395 (+207.5% Power) → 1387.5 (+203.75% Power)
Base hitbox size :: 420 → 350
[BUGFIX] Now scales properly with size.

THE SLIP [CLOSED SECONDARY]
Cooldown :: 10 → 11

Luna
Fixing a bug affecting her most popular Goalie gear is a buff to her, so we thought we'd shout it out up here instead of the Bugfix section.
B.O.O.S.T. [SECONDARY]
[BUGFIX] Should now correctly have cooldown reduced by eject button on all casts originating on your side of the field.

Nao
Nao was proving to be notably powerful at higher tiers of play where her healing is best utilized. We're taking out some of the power from her SPECIAL as well as providing more counterplay options against her.
Stagger growth Tier :: 250 → 125
LIFELINE [SPECIAL]
Cooldown :: 40s → 45s
% Missing Health Healed :: 50% → 40%
Range :: 1600 → 1500

PROXIMITY DRONE [SECONDARY]
Disarm Time :: 0.6 → 0.5

Rasmus
Forward Rasmus wasn't really doing much in the brawl department, so we're touching that up a bit for him. Hope he notices and gives me a raise.
WHIPLASH [SECONDARY]
PvP Damage & Knockback :: 140 (+70% Power) → 150 (+75% Power)
Core Knockback :: 1260(+140% Power) → 1280 (+150% Power)

DEATH TOUCH [SPECIAL]
PvP Damage :: 200 (+100% Power) → 230(+115% Power)
Core Knockback :: 1350(+400% Power) → 1395 (+400% Power)
PvP Knockback unchanged

Rune
Rune was struggling at higher tiers where players were often blocking his pillars before they could spawn. Generally we like this kind of counterplay, but the interaction felt a bit too one-sided. We've lined up his Pillars LIGHT hit damage with their knockback to add some more OOMPH to those fizzles.
UNSTABLE ANOMALY [PRIMARY]
PvP Damage :: 150 (+75% Power) → 187.5 (+93.75% Power)
Knockback unchanged

SHADOW SWAP [SECONDARY]
PvP Damage :: 150 (+75% Power) → 187.5 (+93.75% Power)
Knockback unchanged

Vyce
Similar to Luna, this is a bugfix buff we're calling out here instead of making you read all the bugfixes (which you should anyway).
POWER CORD [PRIMARY]
[BUGFIX] Now properly chains to nearby enemies if it initially hits the Core.


COSMETICS
FINALLY OCTAVIA IS GETTING DRESSED UP!!! AND ANOTHER ASHER SKIN HOLY HELL LOOK AT THAT
Also Dubu got a new partner on the force in Ludwig and Vyce is becoming an Oni of your dreams.
NEW SKINS!!!
Ludwig Dubu
Dream Octavia

You Know Rayditz Had To Do It To 'Em

Big Fish
Peak Performance
Reverberation
Egoist

Spark of Leadership
[NEW] Recovery Drone
Gain 30% size. The first time each set you would be KO'd, prevent it.

[NEW] Explosive Entrance
DASH range, BLINK range, and HASTE effects increased 70%. Your IMPACT abilities hit 12.5% harder (2.5% on Core).

(3% to Core).

[REWORK] Unstoppable
Gain a shield that protects you from 100% of the damage and 100% knockback from the first hit
you take. This shield recharges at the start of each round and after 7.5s of not getting hit.

Cast to Last
We're happy with the direction of the changes for CtL and Chronoboost, but they're a bit weaker than we'd like. We're giving them some love. A lil smooch for Valentine's Day.
Buff & Debuff Duration :: +40% → +45%

Chronoboost
We're happy with the direction of the changes for CtL and Chronoboost, but they're a bit weaker than we'd like. We're giving them some love. A lil smooch for Valentine's Day.
Movement ability boost :: +70% → +75%

Eject Button
EB was exceptionally strong on Strikers that made good use of it!
Secondary Cooldown Reduction :: 30% → 15%

Spark of Leadership
From the early data we scoped out from the last patch we noticed the initial implementation of Spark of Leadership was stronk.
Ally Effect share 50% → 40%

Vicious Vambrace
Core hogs were pigging out on the VV healing. We're hoping this will pull VV back in line.
Healing from core hits :: 10% → 8%

BUGFIXES
Vyce SPECIAL VFX is now always displayed.
Mako's basic strikes no longer count as normal hits for the purposes of Awakenings / Energy generation.
Mako's SPECIAL hitbox should now properly trigger in the right location.
Mako's PRIMARY no longer travels in an incorrect direction when cast at the last second.
Juno's Blobbo's hits should now properly be attributed to the abilities that spawned them for the purposes of awakenings.
Eject button now correctly grants reduces the cooldown for all SECONDARIES cast on your side of the field.
Core hit sounds are no longer significantly louder on some Clarion Corp map variants.
Evading will now prevent damage from Project OBSCURA pools on Clarion Corp.
Fight or Flight speed boost will now correctly activate on allied hits.
Spark of Leadership no longer grants your teammates an additional SPARK for their awakenings and the ability to share their SPARK effects.
Adjusted how Team Player determines if the hit was a pass. On average, it will be less strict on close passes, but stricter on far passes.
Games will now only surrender if at least one person on the team starts a surrender vote, even if all players on that team are detected as inactive.
Fixed a bug that would result in Zentaro dashing in place under various circumstances
Dubu's SPECIAL no longer interrupts his SECONDARY
Dubu's SPECIAL no longer blocks players who are ELUSIVE
Nao PRIMARY tooltip adjusted to reflect actual cooldown
Drek'ar should no longer briefly lose his stealth if he casts his SECONDARY right after casting another ability
Players should (hopefully) no longer bounce off the hole in Ai.Mi's App in rare circumstances
Various other small bug fixes 

Round 2 is DONE.


Btye Breakers have been broken and SSR got squashed.



The FINAL SHOWDOWN is between Demon Drive and Clarion Corp!!

Who will take home the dub??



Remember, if you pick the winning team, you'll get an exclusive goal explosion. Choose carefully :^) 

Steam patch notes:  https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1869590/view/3873722747061104151 

Hey gang!


So let me start this out with a quick note: Sonii was pretty clumsy the other day and accidentally flew into some power lines on the way to the office, so we won't have a video for you all while she recovers... NONETHELESS, we've got a quick Micropatch for you all today with a couple little tweaks for your favorite characters. Not a HUGE change list, but we're tweaking a couple characters and awakenings so you'll want to check it out ANYWAY!!

Okay. Let us begin!




Strikers


Asher
The buff lady needs a buff because recently the buff lady was not so buff.
BREAKTHROUGH [SECONDARY]
Cooldown :: 17s → 15s



Finii
We hit this brat with some damage nerfs a couple patches ago, so now she's little weak. She needs some correction in terms of a buff in a different aspect.
TRIPLE TAKE [SECONDARY]
Cast range :: 850 → 900



Juno
Juno strong. All around. Strong. Blob goal. This help.
BLOB BOUNCE [SECONDARY]
Cooldown :: 9s → 11s



Kazan
Following his mini-rework type beat, we observed he landed pretty much where we wanted, but his numbers looked strong, most notably at higher skill levels. He was also giga brawling a lot.
CROOKED LEVERAGE [CLOSED PRIMARY]
Cooldown :: 7.5s → 8.5s
PvP damage :: 110 (+55% Power) → 100 (+50% Power)
Knockback values unchanged

THE SLIP/POP-UP[CLOSED SECONDARY SPECIAL COMBO]
PvP damage and knockback :: 120 (+60% Power) → 110 (+55% Power)
Core knockback :: 1220 (+120% Power) → 1200 (+110% Power)



Luna
Luna is pretty strong and manages to get goals or KOs from fishing for frequent across-map B.O.O.S.Ts.
B.O.O.S.T. [SECONDARY]
Cooldown :: 12s → 15s



Mako
Makos were using Drum and Base as an instant era-like buff which was pretty strong (and in this community manager's opinion, CRINGE). We're adjusting that to change the behavior but buffing her primary to compensate.
DRUM AND BASE [SECONDARY]
Size and Haste linger after cast :: 1.5s → 0.5s
Duration while channeling unchanged

PERFECT PITCH [PRIMARY]
Minimum hold duration for projectile :: 0.25s → 0.15s
Projectile range increased slightly at all points in the cast
Minimum range :: 258.75 → 270
Maximum range :: 1310 → 1367



Rune
Rune was STRONG. We made him LESS STRONG. But it might've been a little too LESS STRONG. This should help balance him out a touch.
SHADOW STEP [SECONDARY]
Cooldown :: 12 → 10



X
He's strong, but not that popular (based on Pick rate. In the world, he's definitely stupid popular I mean look at him.) This nerf will help bring him back to a nice even state.
BELL RINGER [PRIMARY]
PvP damage and knockback :: 200 (+100% Power) → 190 (+95% Power)
Core knockback :: 1380 (+200% Power) → 1360 (+190% Power)

BULL RUSH [SECONDARY]
PvP damage and knockback :: 220 (+110% Power) → 210 (+105% Power)
Core knockback :: 1390 (+205% Power) → 1385 (+202.5% Power)




GEAR AND AWAKENINGS
I wanted Rapid Fire again. What are you gonna do about it, punk?
ROTATED OUT: Perfect Form
ROTATED IN: Rapid Fire

Demolitionist
Demolitionist was just straight up pretty strong.
Cooldown refund :: 8s → 6s



Fight or Flight
Wake up babe new Slick Kicks 2 just dropped.
Speed boost duration :: 1.5s → 1.75s



Reverberation
Reverberation wasn't at its peak performance, now it is. Hopefully.
Cooldown Rate per 100 Stagger :: 1.15 → 1.25



Specialized Training
Specialized Training? More like Unspecialized Training. Hey Siri what's the opposite of specialized
Special PvP hit modifier :: +50% → +40%
Special Core hit modifier :: +10% → +8%



Stagger Swagger
Stag Swag was too strong at higher elos, but too weak at lower elos.
Base speed :: 10% → 12%
Heal per second at low health :: 200 → 150
