|Featured Changes|
(+) Added Progression
(I) This tracks how much you've played by gaining exp. There are 6 star tiers with 10 color tiers and 10 prestige tiers that are further divided with 10 levels each. This means a total of 6000 levels worth of content. It takes 10000 exp to level up. 50% of any human players' score after each round is converted to exp.
(+) Added Tournament Mode.
(I) This allows you to play multiple games on random stages in quick succession. The player with the most games won after all the set number of games wins. If two or more players have the same number of wins, A tiebreaker is played.
(U) Chests
(<) Leveling up grants a Chest.
(I) The Chests you get are determined by what level you are going up from, 1-7 gets a Basic, 8 and 9 get a Customa, and 10 (when you get a new frame) gets a Gold.
(>) Reduced the spawn rate of chests from 5%/10
sec to 1%/15 sec
(I) This makes the map drops an Auxiliary source of Bonus Chests.
(^) Changed the whole appearance of the Health Bars
(I) Now the bar itself is divided into 4 portions. As well as the portrait being surrounded by an octagon that gets fancier as your level goes up.
(^) Updated the character mug shots.

(^) Enhanced the Post Processing effects.

|Characters|

(<) Reduced Hitsun time by 25% (2 -> 1.5)
(I) 2 seconds of sitting around made you too vulnerable to being comboed on the ground, sometimes even full to death if you're badly unlucky.
(>) Reduced Invulnerability Time by 33% (3 sec -> 2 sec)
(I) This increases the pacing of the game and makes invulnerable nitro combos more difficult to pull off.
(+) Added a glow to Lerpz's Magneto Cell that shows while he's carrying a Crate.
(I) Now you know how he holds them!
|Maps|
(+) Added the Water Tube.
(I) Brawl in a water-filled tube. This inhibits everyone's motion and throw power, as well as giving everyone an O2 Meter that when empty, will drain your HP.

(>) Decreased the Damage of the Triple Rockets by 33% (15 -> 10)

(I) This includes the countdown, victory announcement, and combo announcements.
(^) The Sentry Rockets on the Loading Dock now have the same lasers as the Police Rockets on the City Skyline do.
(I) This makes their trajectory and future point of impact more obvious.
(^) Increased the brightness of the Police Spotlight and changed its flare on the City Skyline.
(I) This makes the Chopper's target more obvious.
(^) The Police Helicopter now strafes in a circle around the building.
(I) This means the angle that the rockets come from is always changing.

(I) I shouldn't need to explain why...
