    • A portion of the comeback souls earned by players above enemy teams average net worth is instead distributed via the tick gold system that is given to the lowest 2 players (70% of the extra comeback value goes to them)

    • Added a tick based souls system that gives the bottom two net worth players on the team a small amount of souls per second. The amount of souls available to distribute to the bottom two players is based on the souls gathered by your team (2% and 1%). This occurs after the laning phase.

    • Some tweaks to how the comeback formula works have been done over the past couple days and we'll continue iterating on it over the coming days
    Full patch

  8. 1 change
    • A small share of the comeback portion of hero kill bounty is now given to each other player outside of just the kill/assist players. This also makes the amount the killer gets be more consistent, previously the amount could vary significantly based on how many people were involved. The killer and assist players still get the bigger shares.
