A New Hero Skin has been corrupted by the Mamono Dagger

To fully immerge yourself in the Halloween horrors we prepared for you, a new Orochi Skin will be available: Yoshiro the Damned. Son of the late Lady Saori, he now needs to wield the Mamono dagger at the peril of his sanity to save his Castle from a newly appeared evil yokai, the Jorogumo. We showcased the design, storytelling, and inspiration behind this latest look. This skin will be available tomorrow, on October 23rd.

A short story on Yoshiro the Damned will be posted tomorrow on our website for even more Lore.

Patch Notes Breakdown
As usual, No Title Update is complete without a round of balance changes and hero updates. In the Patch Notes segment, we went through key adjustments across several heroes. The full details are available in the official patch notes article.


Competitive Circuit Update

We hope you followed the action and intense fights that happened during the previous round of 4V4 of our Competitive Circuit last August! If you want to relive some of the fights or missed it and want to see some action, some of our best clips have been shown in this Warrior's Den!  It doesn't matter if you're a competitor or a spectator, now's the perfect timing to tune in.

Sign-ups are open for the 2v2 tournament, and the open Qualifiers will start on November 1rst, which will follow a similar format to Friend or Foe. It is time to find a buddy to participate as it will be the last chance before the final tournament of the year, planned in Season 4, which will be a 1v1.

This year's circuit will implement circuit points weighed around individual performance to minimize ties. Points will increase as the circuit progresses, rewarding individuals based on their final standings. The total prize pool across the three tournaments is $18,500 USD!
