Zacian has ruled over Ranked UNITE play since its release with an iron paw. However, the 1.9.1.5 Patch looks to slash its stats, slowing its early game progression and giving its opponents a chance to escape.
Its Attack stats have been reduced across the board, which now look like this:
- Level 1: 220 to 190
- Level 2: 232 to 203
- Level 3: 245 to 218
- Level 4: 260 to 234
- Level 5: 276 to 252
- Level 6: 294 to 271
- Level 7: 313 to 292
- Level 8: 334 to 315
- Level 9: 358 to 341
- Level 10: 384 to 369
- Level 11: 413 to 400
- Level 12: 445 to 434
- Level 13: 480 to 472
- Level 14: 518 to 514
- Level 15: 560 to 560
But that’s not all for the Sword Dog.
Its move, Agility, can no longer cancel stuns inflicted on Zacian, meaning it can actually be paused on retreat. Its retreat, however, will not be easy. Its cooldown has been increased from 9 seconds to 10 seconds, whilst the movement speed increase effect has been decreased from 50% to 30%. Agility+ movement increase effect has been nerfed from a 60% increase to 40%.
Ouch.
Sableye
Send this article to a goblin menace main to ruin their day.
Sableye has been causing chaos across the Theia Sky Ruins thanks to its mischievous Aeos Energy stealing antics.
Fortunately, Knock Off has been nerfed, giving Sableye’s opponents a chance to react. Its cooldown has been increased from 7.5 seconds to 8.5, with its hindrance effect being reduced by 20%.
Confuse Ray has also seen a nerf in this patch, with its effect duration decreased from 2.5 seconds to 2.
Mew
Considering Mew had an 84% win rate based on the Season 10 Master Rank Top 100 Most Played Pokemon data, it’s no surprise it’s facing nerfs across the board.
Its ranged Attack, Electro Ball, could snipe opponents from ridiculous distance and deal out some heavy damage. Now, it deals a base 250 damage without the Light Screen boost - a reduction of 10%.
Synchronize’s cooldown has been increased from 20 seconds to 25, whilst Solar Beam’s cooldown has been increased from 9 seconds to 10.5 seconds.
Glaceon
This cool Eeveelution got an Icy Wind buff when the Theia Sky Ruins launched. Now, with the introduction of the Slick Spoon, Glaceon’s early-game snowballing has been melted in its tracks. Its damage has been decreased by 12%.
Trevenent
Wood Hammer’s cooldown has been increased from 5 seconds to 7 seconds.
Pain Split gave Trevenent too much mobility, so its movement speed buff has been decreased from 45% to 35%.
