Revisions to melee parry effect and removal of the parry fail effect to make parries more clear
Updated Krill VO - largely remastering pass, but some new content
Added an Extra Competitive option to allow players to control what type of players are placed on their team. If you prefer to play with higher levels of coordination, communication, and competitiveness, then you can use this option to tell the matchmaker to build your team with like-minded allies. This option will sometimes be inactive in scenarios where the pool is very shallow (large portions of Eternus, off peak hours like 5am, extremely long queue, etc.), but otherwise in most normal scenarios the matchmaker will attempt to find you similar players.

Mini Turrets now have a minimum lifetime of 4s. If they are killed during this time, they will be marked for death regardless of what happens during that time. There will be a visual indication that they are malfunctioning/dying.
Nube de tormenta now grants you a secondary ability Lightning Strike. It is a one time use AoE ability. You can target anywhere in your ultimate range, after a 2s delay it releases a vertical lightning strike onto a 6m area, knocking enemies away from that radius (6m knockback) and dealing 150 Damage (1.5 spirit scaling). There is a visual indicator for enemies that that area is about to be hit.
Nube de tormenta DPS reduced from 125 to 110
Nube de tormenta T3 now also allows you to float around at 2.5m/s speed

Walker: When shot while invisible, you will require 1s to go back invisible rather than 0.25s
Added new limiting function for the soul orb duplication abuses during the laning phase. You shouldn't experience any real difference in normal gameplay:
Players can only participate in 4 Soul Orb share events per trooper wave, before being declared lower priority. A low priority player is not counted for when deciding how many souls to generate. Example: if a player is near 4 troopers from Wave 1 when they die, then moves to a different lane that has an allied hero still fighting Wave 1 troopers, that player will no longer cause the wave to double the souls generated as is the case now, as they are considered a low priority player for that wave. The generated Almas will then be split as normal.
Added a new setting option: "Additional Build Search Language", which lets you select a language to search for when requesting builds in addition to the current display language of the client.
Urn spawn point now alternates left and right starting with left, rather than being random
