The 2025 New Battlefield Effects are coming!! The current visual elements are in testing and do not represent the final quality. We will continue to optimize gameplay, attributes, and visual elements. We will also gradually introduce new battlefield effects for testing. We hope you'll try them out and share
your feedback with us. We'll keep communicating with you through [Layla's Workshop]. This feature will not be available immediately after the Patch update. We will enable it after confirming the Patch's stability.
Badang, Grock, and Ling will be temporarily unavailable when this feature is enabled. We will fix the related issues as soon as possible and make these heroes available in a future Patch.
In this revamp, we aim to give Kimmy the following characteristics:
1- Enhanced Basic Attacks are now easier to cast and no longer require an additional skill slot.
2- Survival skills now better match the hero's image and design, without counter-intuitive mechanics.
3- Given the Ultimate's extremely long range, we've added crowd control effects, allowing Kimmy to actively initiate team fights, rather than having Ultimate function solely as a damage-dealing skill.
4- Made enhanced Basic Attacks more unstoppable.
Passive: Aerial Dominance
Kimmy can move and aim in different directions when using her Spray Gun, but cannot lock on to a specific enemy. Kimmy's Spray Gun attack deals Magic Damage. Hitting enemy heroes restores Starlium. At max Starlium, Kimmy's Basic Attacks are enhanced to deal more damage and pierce through targets.
Skill 1: Anti-Grav Thruster
Kimmy uses her jetpack to take flight, passing through terrain and gaining Movement Speed boost. During the flight, she fires Chemical Bolts at nearby enemies, dealing Magic Damage.
Skill 2: Starlium Beam
Kimmy fires a Starlium Beam in a target direction, dealing Magic Damage to enemies in the path and slowing them down. The beam illuminates the surrounding area, providing vision.
Ultimate: Traction Pulse
Kimmy charges and fires a Traction Pulse in a target direction. Upon hitting an enemy or reaching its max range, the Traction Pulse explodes, deals Magic Damage to nearby enemies, and creates a force field that slows down enemies within. After a short delay, the field contracts, pulling all enemies to its
New in-battle Ultimate effects for Revamped Yi Sun-shin are now available.
When an enemy hero exposes their position to Revamped Yi Sun-shin, a special marker will appear as a reminder.
In the second phase of the Ultimate, hitting enemies with the turtle ship will immediately trigger the Weapon Mastery effect.

Changes to Kalea, Revamped Yi Sun-shin, Revamped Rafaela, Revamped Gloo, Chip, Leomord, Lord, and Medal Points have been re-released on the Advanced Server.

The following uses (↑) (↓) (~) to indicate Buff, Nerf, and Adjustment.
