A patch summary describes a change, not its measured effect on match outcomes. We have not assigned a win-rate change or moved classes up a tier from this release alone. Timing, teammate choices and the opponent's response still determine whether a mechanical change helps your particular composition.
Use a practice game to check the behavior you rely on, then compare your current setup with the class directory and talent calculator. All numerical reference pages currently use the v0.23 snapshot; this archive is historical context and should not be read as a separate executable ruleset.
