What's new

- Master Vault and Reserve Vault for champions.
- Hex debuff mechanic overhaul.
- Rebalances for Konstantin, Cupidus, and Jingwon.
What it means for players
Master Vault and Reserve Vault are new tools for managing your champion collection. For beginners, they can make it easier to organize early champions and keep the roster from feeling overwhelming; for veterans and clan players, they offer more ways to keep useful champions in order and make room for new ones. The nine new champions add options across modes, but the right pick still depends on your current roster and goals.
The Hex overhaul is the biggest change for anyone who uses this debuff in PvP or PvE. Because the mechanic now works differently, old setups should be tested again: teams that relied on Hex may need different champions or turn order. The rebalances for Konstantin, Cupidus, and Jingwon also affect upgrade priorities, especially if you have already invested in them or are planning to build them. Even if you do not use Hex, it helps to know how it works so you can recognize what your opponents are trying to do. Overall, update 5.70 is worth reviewing before your next battles and roster cleanup.
