Execution loses forgiveness
The June 25 hotfix gives Shion's Execution a smaller projectile and adds a recovery window after the ability. Its projectile size falls from 0.17 to 0.07, while recovery rises from zero to 0.4 seconds.
Together, those changes make the shot more exact and remove the immediate follow-up that was available at launch. The patch does not change Execution's listed damage.
- Execution projectile size reduced from 0.17 to 0.07.
- Execution recovery time increased from 0 to 0.4 seconds.
Stadium's first tuning pass is wide
The same update adjusts a long list of Stadium powers and items. Three Tap Tommygun rises from 10,000 to 10,500, while Salvaged Slugs receives stronger sustain: its ammo-restore chance moves from 50% to 60% and healing rises from 15% to 20%.
Hazard's Juiced is pulled back in the other direction. Its radius drops from 12 meters to 8, and its heal falls from 30% to 20% of maximum life. Those changes target both the reach and the amount of its team sustain.
A substantial bug-fix list follows
Blizzard also addresses interactions involving D.Va gadgets, Genji's Dragon Strike, Reinhardt's Iron Drift, Wuyang healing, Moira powers, and several Stadium item combinations. Replay codes from the June 16 patch remain available.
This is still a hotfix, but its Stadium scope is much larger than the two single-purpose updates that preceded it on June 23 and June 24.
