Fixes and Optimizations

All Platforms

Ban/Pick Glitch: In live spectator and tournament spectating modes, some Ban/Pick info could get scrambled. We’ve untangled the wires, everything’s in sync now! Proficiency Unleashed: We’ve amped up your path to greatness (and rewards). Now you’ll earn Proficiency faster. +30% Proficiency for Quick Match and Competitive Permanent Missions from Lord and beyond! +5 Repeatable attempts for Arcade Daily Missions!

Maps & Modes

Yggdrasill Traffic Jam, No More! We’ve widened the passageways for the mission vehicle in certain tight spots on the Yggsgard: Yggdrasill Path map. Now, you and your ride won’t get stuck between a rock and a hard god-realm. Buckle up, Bifrost style!

Heroes

Deadpool’s VFX Makeover

Strategist Deadpool Hype Healing: The healing visual effects triggered by katana strikes have been polished up, because even the Merc with a Mouth likes his healing flashy and fabulous! Vanguard Deadpool’s Hardcore Trial: After passing the upgraded ‘The Big Test,’ the area Bonus Health visual effects are now clearer than a freshly cleaned katana. Extra health, extra style! Katana Afterparty: All Deadpools now get improved trailing and afterimage effects when acing their ultimate with katana in hand, leaving enemies seeing double (or triple)! Deadpool’s Screen Scene: We’ve adjusted the visual clutter from the ‘Deadpool In Your Area’ ability for all roles. Wade’s still got your back, just not blocking the whole screen anymore. Maximum effort, sub-maximum interference! We hope these visual upgrades improve your battle experience! We’ll keep a keen eye on any VFX that could cause serious interference and continue to polish them until they’re worthy of the Marvel name.

Other Heroes

Phoenix’s Hot Potato: In rare cosmic circumstances, Phoenix’s ultimate could be destroyed by teammates’ projectiles. This fiery mishap is now history; no more friendly fire! Marvel Moment Mishap: In some cases, when a hero is affected by an Ultimate Ability (such as Emma Frost’s) and another hero (for example, Spider-Man) uses a standard ability to score a terrain KO on the affected opponent, that hero (Spider-Man) could be left hanging without getting Ultimate Ability charge. We’ve set things right, no more tangled webs or cold shoulders! Now, everyone gets the energy they deserve.
