Balance
This balance pass contains further adjustments for our newest Legends, and some improvements for key Signatures on older Legends, as it brings us into the balance lock for the World Championship.
Ada
Ada's Neutral Blasters now has significantly greater threat coverage along the blasts, as well as significantly improved setup consistency leading into the final blast. We have also significantly increased the maximum Force of Ada's Down Blasters to better match its overall risk and total commitment time.- Neutral Blasters: Greatly increased threat coverage towards the user for the grounded and aerial blasts; Improved setup logic for the grounded blasts; Slightly decreased maximum horizontal travel during the blasts for greater consistency into the final blast.[/*]
- Down Blasters: Increased Force from a range of 55~30 Fixed/45~20 Variable to a range of 60~30 Fixed/52~20 Variable.[/*]
Diana
Diana's Down Blasters now has less Minimum Charge time for more reliable use in the neutral game and as a punish option. This Signature also has less Recover time on miss to help offset its lengthy total commitment.- Down Blasters: Decreased Minimum Charge time from 11 to 9; Decreased total Recover time on miss from 21 to 19.[/*]
Ember
We have decreased the Minimum Charge time of Ember's Neutral Katars for more responsive use as an anti-air attack.

Imugi

It also has less vertical threat coverage near the end of the Hit Window to allow for easier escapes and approaches. Imugi's Down Greatsword now has greater Minimum Charge time to allow a wider opportunity to evade or interrupt this versatile Signature. We have increased the Time to Hit of the initial strike of Imugi's Side Axe to better match its threat coverage and bring it in line with other similar attacks.- Side Greatsword: Increased total Recover time from 24 to 26; Decreased maximum vertical threat coverage at the end of the Hit Window.[/*]

Vivi
We have adjusted the Hurtbox of Vivi's Neutral Battle Boots to keep it from evading over low grounded attacks and gadgets. We have also increased the Recover time of Vivi's Down Battles Boots to grant an even wider opportunity to line up a punish after evading or maneuvering around this attack.- Neutral Battle Boots: Lowered Hurtbox to not evade certain low grounded attacks.[/*]
- Down Boots: Increased total Recover time from 20 to 22.[/*]
Wu Shang
Wu Shang's Neutral Spear now has less Force to better match its utility and relatively wide threat coverage.
