The headline change is the Dokkaebi Remaster. Her Jegeo Payload now requires a specific target to deploy. Once active, the defender must deal with it or face a 40 HP explosion followed by fire damage. To compensate for this increased offensive pressure, she is losing her Stun Grenades but gaining access to the brand-new XK23 Assault Rifle. This weapon boasts a solid 49 damage at 675 RPM, providing a reliable alternative for players who find her marksman rifle too restrictive in close-quarters brawls.
Gridlock is also seeing significant utility buffs. Her TRAX Stingers now have increased health, making them harder for defenders to clear quickly. Even better, enemies caught in the spikes will now suffer from a limping effect and leave a blood trail, making them easy prey for roam-clearers. To keep this from being OP, her total charge count is being reduced from 4 to 3.
How is the meta shifting for Attackers?
Zofia fans can celebrate as she returns to a 2-speed, 2-health configuration. This reversion restores her identity as a mobile entry-fragger who can actually keep up with the pace of a site execute. Meanwhile, the XK23 isn't just for Dokkaebi; it’s being added to the kits of Rauora and Sens, potentially breathing new life into those operators' pick rates.
On the defensive side, Pulse and Mozzie are getting slight range buffs to their gadgets, ensuring they stay competitive against the increasingly high-tech attacking lineup. These changes suggest a Y11S2 meta focused on high-stakes utility trades and more aggressive information gathering.
