After the recent introduction of line of sight and the nerf to many popular setups, it is now time for us to level the playing field by increasing minion strength across the board.
For this, we have devised an early balancing plan we are applying to all minions in the game, meaning that most of them are likely to change in some way.
Note that these changes are not live yet. They will be published after the season reset, on Tuesday June 4, 2019.
