Updated Tournament Map Sets
We've updated our 1v1 and 2v2 Tournament Map Sets! Apocalypse has now been added, while we removed Thundergard Stadium. We've also provided a new option in the Ranked 1v1 and 2v2 lobby, where you may enable the option to play on Tournament Maps Only. Here are a few notes about it below:
  • 1v1 Tournament Map Set: Added Apocalypse, removed Small Thundergard Stadium
  • 2v2 Tournament Map Set: Added Apocalypse, removed Thundergard Stadium
  • Apocalypse:
    • This map had an unusually large camera horizontal bounds and an unusually small distance between the edge of the camera bounds and the kill lines on the left and right.
    • This was giving the impression that Apocalypse has a larger horizontal kill box than it actually does. The camera bounds have been brought in without changing the size of the kill box to address this.
    • Apocalypse did have an unusually high kill ceiling however, which has been nudged in to be more in the middle of the pack for 1v1 maps like it is for the horizontal kill box.
  • New option available in the Lobby tab of the Settings in Ranked 1v1 and 2v2 lobby: Tournament Maps Only.
    • After a match is made, if either player has enabled this option then the match will choose from "Tournament 1v1" Map Set instead of the "1v1" Map Set.
    • For 2v2, after a match is made, if the host player of either team has enabled this option then the match will choose from "Tournament 2v2" Map Set instead of the "2v2" Map Set.

Test Features
With the help of your feedback, we have graduated the Axe Test Features into the live game! The timer test feature has also graduated to live! We've added a toggle in the game settings menu for players who would like to know how much time is left.
  • Graduated Test Feature
    • Stock Timer Test Feature, where the Match Timer will only show when there is less than a minute remaining in the game. You can toggle this option on or off.
    • The modified Axe Down Air and Ground Pound have graduated from Test Features. These attacks are now part of the main Axe kit and replace the previous Down Air and Ground Pound. You can find information on the differences between these new Axe powers and the previous ones in the Balance section below.
Balance
We have made a round of balance adjustments for some underperforming Signatures that have generally fallen behind the pace of the game. These changes are primarily focused on either reducing a Signature's Recover time so it gains a wider array of situations in which it may be safely used, or extending the travel distance of its attack to increase its effective threat range. There are also several changes to base weapon kits, including the new Axe Down Air and Ground Pound which have graduated from Test Features.
 
Axe
The modified Axe Down Air and Ground Pound have been graduated from Test Features as significant quality-of-life improvements, while also providing new use cases. The new landing swipe when a Down Air is performed near the ground has a larger Hit Window and far less Recover time when compared to the standard Down Air and can more easily lead into follow-up attacks. The Ground Pound is now a single spin instead of the previous double spin, resulting in far less total commitment. Momentum from movement such as a dash can be carried over into the Ground Pound, allowing for a great deal of movement during the charge and attack. The user's fall speed is also softened at the end of the spin for safer use off-stage.
  • Axe Down Air: Now has a new landing version when performed close to the ground.
    • Changes the previous Axe Down Air to new one are as follows: Damage changed from a range of 18~10 to 18; Stun changed from a range of 18~22 to 22; Damage changed from a range of 58 Fixed/34 Variable to 41 Fixed/25 Variable; Hitboxing updated to better match animation; New landing version has a Hit Window of 8, compared to the aerial Hit Window of 4; New landing version has a Recover time of 0 Fixed/5 Variable on hit and 0 Fixed/6 Variable on miss, compared to the aerial Recover time of 1 Fixed/16 Variable on hit and 0 Fixed/28 Variable on miss.
  • Axe Ground Pound: Now a single spin that carries momentum.
    • Changes from the previous Axe Ground Pound to the new one are as follows: Hit Window during charge changed from a Time to Hit of 36 to 17; Time to Hit when tapped changed from 20 to 17; Hit Window during the spin changed from 25 to 15; total Recover time changed from 10 Fixed/9 Variable to 8 Fixed/12 Variable; Damage changed from a range of 20~15 to a range of 20~18; Force changed from a range of 50~45 Fixed/45~40 Variable to a range of 50~40 Fixed/45~40 Variable; Fall speed softened during the second half of the spin; A portion of momentum from movement such as a dash carries over into the charge and spin.
Blasters
We have increased the Stun on the final hit of Blasters Neutral Light to allow for closer follow-up attacks, as targets could too easily disengage after being struck by this low-force setup attack.
  • Blasters Neutral Light: Increased stun of final hit from 20 to 22.
Spear
The Spear Ground Pound has received both a reduction in Recover time and increased Stun, as it could previously leave the user too vulnerable after striking opponents at lower health ranges.
  • Spear Ground Pound: Decrease Recover time of the air release from 2 Fixed/26 Variable to 0 Fixed/26 Variable, and the ground version from 2 Fixed/28 Variable to 0 Fixed/28 Variable; Increased Stun from 19 to 22; Decreased Force from 53 Fixed/44 Variable to 53 Fixed/42 Variable.
Artemis
The travel distance before Artemis' Side Lance blast, along with the travel distance of the recoil, have been increased to give this attack greater range that better fits with other similar attacks. We have also reduced the Recover time as the previous risk far outweighed the potential reward on hit.
  • Artemis Side Lance: Decrease total Recover time from 28 to 25; Increase distance traveled before and after blast.
Dusk
While Dusk's Spear kit carries a fair amount of utility, the commitment required for certain attacks hinders their use in most situations. We have reduced the Recover time of Dusk's Side Spear and Down Spear so they may better fit in a wider variety of situations.
  • Dusk Side Spear: Decreased Recover time on miss from 6 to 3.
  • Dusk Down Spear: Decreased Recover time from 15 to 13.
Isaiah
Given the specific aiming requirement of Isaiah's Down Blasters, we have increased the Force of the explosion for a greater reward, while also slightly increasing the threat coverage of the initial shot for easier use.
  • Isaiah Down Blasters: Slightly increased coverage on initial marking shot; Increased Force of the blast from 50 Fixed/55 Variable to 55 Fixed/56 Variable for the ground explosion, from 50 Fixed/42 Variable to 55 Fixed/43 Variable for the air explosion, and from 50 Fixed/45 Variable to 55 Fixed/46 Variable for the wall explosion.
Kaya
We have increased the travel distance on Kaya's Side Spear due to its single-target nature and lower threat coverage than other similar attacks.
  • Kaya Side Spear: Increased travel distance before the strike.
Ulgrim
For improving the speed of Ulgrim's underused Lance Signatures, we have leaned into the defensive nature of the Down Lance by reducing its Recover time. The Side Lance has been sped up on the front end, with reductions in both Minimum Charge and Time to Hit for a snappier response.
  • Ulgrim Down Lance: Decreased Recover time on miss for the uncharged version from 10 to 7; Decreased Recover time on miss for the charged version from 7 to 5.
  • Ulgrim Side Lance: Decreased Minimum Charge time from 13 to 12; Decreased Time to Hit after release from 7 to 6.
Zariel
The low height and close range nature of Zariel's Down Gauntlets warrants a relatively short total commitment, so we have decreased the Recover time to better fit the threat coverage and overall speed of this attack.
  • Zariel Down Gauntlets: Decreased Recover time on miss from 8 to 6.
Game Improvements
User Experience
  • Volume and music sliders on system settings can now be clicked and dragged.
  • System options can now be clicked directly instead of using the arrows.
  • A new system setting for stock mode timer display has been added.
Daily Missions
  • Getting a KO on your guest in the FFA queue will no longer give progress toward Missions.
Gameplay
  • Improved bot pathing back to the stage on Plains of Passage.
  • Isaiah Down Blasters: Fixed a case where Force on the missile flight could be much greater than intended.
Localization
  • A big thank you to Juangana and SQUAiR for their continued help with our Spanish translations.
  • Also, thank you to u/Zack_Eon, Comesa, and Taise for their help with improving our German translations.
Art
  • Tweaked Hellboy's idle animation in the character select screen.
Bug Fixes
User Interface
  • Fixed a bug causing Princess Bubblegum's Blasters to not correctly animate inside the UI.
  • Fixed a bug causing the system settings icon for 'Collapse Crossovers' to not correctly display.
User Experience
  • Fixed a bug where Crossover characters were not correctly reading Stances from saved loadouts.
  • Fixed a bug where custom Kung Foot games with team damage off would be listed as having team damage on.

Art
  • Fixed a bug where Sourcecode Petra's forearms wouldn't color swap on consoles.
  • Ulgrim Side Lance: Fixed a case where Ulgrim's Side Lance dissipation FX would play at the wrong time.
Legend Rotation
Petra debuts on the Legend Rotation! The new free-to-play Legend rotation for this week also includes: Hattori, Orion, Isaiah, Jhala, Ragnir, Yumiko, and Mordex.

New Ranked Season!
Season 13 – Rewards and Soft Elo reset!

If you’re new to Seasons, here’s some information you should know. You’re going to have a soft Elo reset and will also receive Glory, the currency you receive for playing Ranked. You can use it in the Ranked section of Malhalla to get special Colors and Weapon Skins to show your dedication to your favorite Legend. We hope you enjoy your rewards and enjoy the New Season!

Soft Elo Reset Formula
Soft Elo Reset is based on your current Elo at the end of the season.

1v1 and 2v2 Personal Rating
  • Under 1400: New Elo = Old Elo
  • Over 1400: New Elo = 1400 + (Old Elo – 1400) / (3 – (3000 – Old Elo) / 800)
2v2 Team and Legend Rating
  • 2v2 Team & Legend Ratings  have been brought closer to 750.
  • Under 2000: Elo = (Elo + 375) / 1.5
  • Over 2000, we aggressively brought you back down as a way of resetting the top tiers. Diamond level players will be reset to high gold or low platinum.
Glory Earnings Calculation
Glory earned is based on a combination of your Highest Peak Rating (highest 1v1, 2v2, team, or Legend rating/Elo) and total Wins. This was designed in order to reward both skill and dedication for those who pursue Glory.

You gain 20 Glory per win up to 150 wins, which gets you 3000 Glory. After 150 wins, each subsequent win gives you slightly less.

Note: There is a minimum requirement of 10 games played to be eligible for Glory based on your rating.

For help estimating your Glory Gained or New Elo after the reset go to: http://www.brawlhalla.com/glory-calculator/

Ranked Borders from Season 12
If you placed in Gold or better in your best rating, you are given a ranked border that people will see in the match preview screen. There are Ranked borders for Gold, Platinum, and Diamond tiers. These will last for one season and will be updated again after the new season comes to a close.

Your border from any previous season does not carry over or have any impact on your current border reward.

Ranked Avatars from Season 12
Ranked Avatars include prestigious versions for those who’ve placed in high ranks during previous seasons. For example, if you placed in Platinum last season and Gold this season, you’ll receive the upgraded versions of the Competitor’s Badge and Gold Emblem. You will still have your original Platinum Emblem avatar from previous seasons.

You must play a minimum of 10 games to receive ranked avatars / borders at ANY rank.

5th & 6th Tier Ranked Avatar Upgrade Information
For players who have reached the 5th Tier of an avatar by reaching a certain rank or higher for five total seasons: the 5th Tier of that avatar will stay in your inventory permanently! Congratulations on your achievements!

The 6th Tier Avatar, for those who have reached a certain rank or higher for six total seasons, will take on a brand new look! These avatars will grow more and more prestigious with each subsequent seasonal repeat up to Tier 10, at which point the Tier 10 avatar will remain in your inventory permanently.

In short, every 5 Tiers of avatars, you’ll keep the most awesome, most decked out version permanently, and then start work on a new version for subsequent tiers for 6-10, 11-15, and so on.

Color Scheme – Goldforged!
Beyond glory there is immortality!  Goldforged color scheme is only purchasable with Glory and requires the Skyforged color scheme of that same Legend to have already been purchased.

E3 2019 games every game confirmed
FINAL FANTASY VIII - contact@rockpapershotgun.com (Dave Irwin)

They just keep coming don’t they? A lot of games were announced at E3 2019, things that we didn’t know about, as well as stuff that’s previously announced, or expansions to already released games. Now, to the casual outsider, what we’re doing might seem absolutely nuts, but we thought we’d put together an alphabetical list of all the PC games that have been confirmed to appear at this year’s E3 show. With well over a hundred of them now in the books, the next year or so looks packed.
