Hero Updates
While no new hero is being introduced in this update, several existing characters are receiving adjustments. Iron Man's barrage mechanic will be enhanced, allowing his missiles to automatically lock onto up to five targets, improving his damage output. Phoenix's damage is also being increased to help her remain competitive with other Duelist-class characters. Jubilee's Sparking Sprint mobility skill now provides a small amount of continuous healing, enhancing her survivability.
