Official source - NERFElsa BloodstoneSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Glartrox survivability and grab reduced
Elsa Bloodstone's Glartrox has less health, a shorter dash and a smaller grab area, so it is easier to kill and to dodge.
Glartrox health from 500 to 400, dash duration from 6s to 3.5s, grab hitbox from 6m (L) x 6m (W) x 3.5m (H) to 5m (L) x 5m (W) x 3.5m (H).
TipYour ultimate is weaker and grabs fewer enemies; use it for targeted threat control rather than area pressure.
Official source - NERFHawkeyeSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Piercing and charged arrow damage cut across the board
Hawkeye deals less damage with Piercing ArrowLMB, fully charged arrows and focused arrows, so Hawkeye needs more hits to secure kills.
- Reduce Piercing Arrow base damage from 34 to 28
- reduce fully charged arrow base damage from 85 to 70
- reduce focused arrow damage from 175 to 160.
TipYour base damage takes a significant hit - rely more on Archer's FocusPassive to maintain your threat level.
Official source - NERFHelaSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Long-range damage falloff reduced
Hela's shots lose more damage at long range, so beyond 25m two critical hits no longer knock out a 250 HP target.
- Damage falloff at 30m drops to 70% of the base (was 80%)
- beyond 25m, two critical hits will not KO a 250 HP target.
TipLess lethal at extreme range; close distance for guaranteed eliminations.
Official source - NERFDoctor StrangeSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Shield of the SeraphimRMB recovers slower
Doctor Strange's Shield of the Seraphim refills more slowly, so it takes longer to come back to full after taking damage.

TipShield recharges more slowly - extend their duration by playing safer.
Official source - NERFInvisible WomanSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Force PhysicsE cooldown increased

TipYour push ability has longer downtime - space uses more carefully and rely on teammates for chain cc.
Official source - NERFLokiSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026

Official source - NERFMoon KnightSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Moon BladeRMB Bonus Health Reduction

Rogue's Defensive Stance turns more absorbed damage into energy, and Fatal Attraction comes back faster.
- Defensive Stance absorbed damage energy conversion rate increased from 0.27 to 0.35
- Fatal Attraction cooldown reduced from 17s to 14s.
TipYou build ultimate energy faster from blocked damage; use Defensive Stance more liberally to enable chain Fatal Attractions.
Official source - BUFFSquirrel GirlSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Squirrel BlockadeRMB projectile speed increased
Squirrel Girl's uncharged Squirrel Blockade flies faster, so it is easier to land.
Squirrel Blockade projectile speed increased from 20m/s to 30m/s when unleashing without charge.
TipYour Blockade projectiles travel faster and are harder to dodge.
Official source - BUFFStar-LordSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Galactic LegendQ energy cost reduced

Official source - BUFFThe PunisherSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026

TipExtended battlefield coverage to reach allies from further away.
Official source - BUFFVenomSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Base health and Feast damage conversion increased
Venom has more base health, and Feast of the AbyssQ turns more of its damage into bonus health, so Venom is tankier.
Base health increased from 650 to 675, and Feast of the Abyss Damage-to-Bonus-Health conversion increased from 1 to 1.3.
TipVenom's more durable now and converts damage to bonus health more efficiently.
Official source - BUFFWolverineSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026
Ultimate cost reduced
Wolverine's Last StandQ costs a lot less energy, so the ultimate is ready much sooner.
Last Stand energy cost reduced from 3400 to 2800.
TipYou're back to farming ultimate at a normal pace - treat ultimate windows as frequent teamfight tools you can leverage repeatedly.
Official source - NERFGambitSeason 6.5 - Feb 2026

- 2026/02/15
- Rivals, loud and clear, we hear you! After weighing community feedback and hero performance data, we will bring some balance adjustments in Patch 0219.
- To keep S6 feeling stable for the entire season and ensure that players can join in at any point during these two months without compromising their consistent experience, the S6.5 changes were designed to be restrained, with a smaller impact on the overall meta.
- But no worries! We're tracking your feedback as always and testing the proposed changes internally. Patch 0219 will target a subset of high-performing heroes that have drawn stronger feedback. There's more content coming your way, and we'll roll it out in Season 7. Please stay tuned!

- 1. Iron Fist's Lion Roar: Iron Fist's Lion's Gaze costume Chromas Savage Spirit and Lively Lion had a stubborn exclusive ultimate ability voice line that wouldn't quiet down even after turning off exclusive voice settings. We called in the Heroes for Hire, and now the voice toggle works as intended!
2 Mar 2026 › Heroes
- 1. Angela's Angelic Bug Exorcised: When Angela used Assassin's Charge to carry an enemy, and collided with an enemy Angela who was also using Assassin's Charge, there was a slim chance her next Assassin's Charge wouldn't carry enemies. The odds were small, but the gods have spoken, and this bug has been banished! Angela's abilities are now as heavenly as her reputation.
- 2. Doctor Strange's Portal Predicament: Enemies wouldn't immediately fall when the Sorcerer Supreme conjured a portal beneath their feet. The mystic arts have been refined: targets now fall as intended the moment a portal opens beneath them. No temporary Cloaks of Levitation allowed!

The command center is back in order: key remapping works perfectly, and the surrender button is there, should you need it.
10 Mar 2026 › Heroes
- 1. Hulk's Mighty Roar Communication Now SMASHES Through! When Hero Hulk was winding up his Incredible Leap, pinging a location wouldn't play his voice line, leaving him at a loss for words. (And for Hulk, that's saying something!) Now, the big guy's callouts work perfectly, even when he's getting ready to dive in.
