WeвЂ™ve increased the power, duration, radius, speed, and capacity for his grenades to make them more useful and lethal in combat. We hope to see Tachanka viable in all levels of play, and as a good alternative or complement to Smoke to create new strategies based on area and time denial. However, the data now shows Tachanka with a low presence and low usage of grenades, causing his lethality to not be where we would like. Initial feedback after Tachanka's rework suggested that he would be too overpowered and game-breaking.

Population targeted by this change: Casual, Top Ranked, Pro.

Reduced unequip time to 0.3s (from 0.42s).

Reduced equip time to 0.65s (from 0.9s).

Increased projectile speed to 30 (from 20).

Increased projectile вЂњdistance to start dropвЂќ to 20m (was 8m).

Increased fire area radius to 1.9m (from 1.7m).

Reduced detonation time to 0.75s (from 1s).

Increased magazine capacity to 7 (was 5).

Balancing is an iterative process for any operator or weapon, so we will be closely monitoring how this affects everyone's favorite ADS-wielder and will continue to tweak as necessary as we seek that sweet spot. We have potential tweaks for the ADS that we are considering for the future, but also understand this topic encompasses more than just JГ¤ger. These changes help make the weapon less of a must-pick compared to other weapons and operators, while keeping it a strong weapon in a skillful playerвЂ™s hand.ДЄt the end of the day, though, we know that his denial utility is a huge part of what makes him such a draw-not just his loadout. By reducing ammo and increasing recoil, we believe this will require a greater degree of finesse from players to make the most of it. Our next step is to look at the frag potential of his 416-C, which has been performing above average among ARs. Our last change addressed his utility and while this was a change in the right direction, the data shows that his presence is still overwhelmingly high compared to other operators.

This is something we've spent a great deal of time working through how to address, understanding it will affect so many players and we want to maintain the identity of such a beloved operator while also encouraging greater pick diversity. JГ¤ger is a community favorite and we can understand why! While we all love JГ¤ger and the utility he brings to team compositions, his 95% presence is too high to ignore. Population targeted by this change: Top Ranked, Pro.

Increased 416-C weapon recoil vertical kick.

Reduced 416-C magazine capacity to 25+1 (was 30+1).

Additionally, this should give more room for his PDW9 to be used, empowering players with the option to use either weapon depending on the map or strategy.

The change should bring Jackal in line with other operators, while not dramatically reducing his capability. WeвЂ™ve taken a look at the data for the C7E and found it a tad too strong. Jackal is seen both a lot in matches and ban picks due to his overall strength and versatility.

Reduced C7E magazine capacity to 25+1 bullets (from 30+1).

Now, it can destroy the Black Mirror completely, adding more counterplay options for dealing with Mira. Players already use Ace to counter Mira by opening a space beneath the mirror to deny defender access. We are also changing how AceвЂ™s gadget will work with MiraвЂ™s Black Mirror Window.

WeвЂ™ve replaced his smoke grenades with a claymore, reducing his late game execution to give room for other breachers such as Thermite. Overall, we see him as a fast and versatile hard breacher, but he should not be the dominant pick for hard breachers in all situations. Looking at the Balancing Matrix, Ace has climbed higher in pick presence and win rate. Population targeted by this change: Casual, Top Ranked, Pro. Win Delta: The Win Delta is aggregated from OperatorвЂ™s Win Deltas per Bomb Site. Presence definition: pick rate of an Operator when not banned. This notion had to be introduced to reflect the implementation of the pick & ban. Please note that we are using presence to gauge the popularity of an Operator.
