Competitive Notes

• The Shadow of Phantasm Week changes will be included in competitive playlists.

• Late Game Arena starts later today. Read more in our Late Game Arena blog post.

• Zero Build Arena has been turned off.

Major Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue in which the Health and Shield bars would not correspond with the actual value remaining after taking damage.

• Fixed an issue in which the Kamehameha would refill to three full charges when dropped by an eliminated player.

• The "Dedicated Button" fire mode option on mobile is now working correctly. Unchecking the option will now automatically hide the dedicated fire button in-game if the context allows it.

  • If the equipped weapon/item doesn't support the currently selected fire mode (for example: a melee weapon can’t autofire), the dedicated fire button will still be displayed.
