The weekly update nerfed several top-tier (T0) heroes, with Cao Cao stepping down. Even after the nerf to Yellow Shield, its cost-effectiveness remains high.

Nuwa's data has increased, and everyone has witnessed how threatening she is. Even professional players have achieved a win rate of 70% to 80% in the arena. Although she has a certain level of difficulty to operate, even if you are not good at Tetris, you can just release energy from a distance in the mid-game and the opponent will be crippled. At this point, the planners decided to take action to suppress her and alleviate the opponent's survivability.

After a rare redesign, and within a year securing two major skins—the Year of the Snake limited edition and the 10th-anniversary collaboration with the Sanxingdui Museum—she's now facing a nerf. This might seem contradictory to dedicated players. The reduced ultimate damage shouldn't significantly impact her sustained damage output. The four-slot system, crafting method, and crafting distance still require strategic thinking from players. However, accelerating her burst damage ultimately depends on her economy—having money, equipment, and damage. The question is, will she have the opportunity to drag the game into the late game?

The second victim is Cao Cao. The slowing time of his second skill has been reduced from 2 seconds to 1.5 seconds. That 0.5 seconds may seem insignificant, but it actually suppresses his chasing ability. The 5A combo is now more difficult to execute, and the opponent has a chance to escape in the last two hits. After being nerfed several times, Chi Tu has been replaced in the top lane and has become the only T0 champion.

The equipment adjustment included the Yellow Shield, but because so many players benefited from it, especially warriors, tanks, and junglers, the developers decided to weaken its attributes, reducing the dual resistances by 20 and 10 points respectively.
