- We have adjusted the formula for the leaderboard so it is now more reflective of wins than kills in order to encourage effort toward winning the game rather than focusing on getting kills.
May 9th Patch Notes (Escort Payload)
NotesThis patch is mostly focused on bringing sabers back to an acceptable level. We believe we originally over-buffed them and made them far too powerful in games.

Energy - Damage 40 > 30
Energy Choke - Damage 40 > 30
Saber Dash - Damage 25 > 20
Energy Push - Damage 20 > 15
Saber Throw - Damage 35 > 30
Saber Kit Cost - 25 Credits > 40 Credits
Item Changes
Riot Baton - Melee Damage 9 > 12
Domination - Enabled
We have disabled Escort Payload and enabled the Domination game mode! Remember that your favorite game will come back during the 4th week of the event, so make sure to play a lot if you want to see Domination again!Any Rebel kits that were previously buffed to account for the one-sidedness of Escort Payload have been reverted to their original numbers.
Enjoy!
