We haven’t seen you since last year, but luckily we haven’t had to wait long. The year has barely begun, and things are already falling into place for V1.11, arriving next Tuesday, January 13th! And there are some rather exciting things waiting for you in this one! Without further ado, let’s dive into: - New Hero: Maco, a menace and a healer! - New Year, better Nitro! - AFK VP loss mitigation - Party Boost XP - Community Voted Fixes - Forever Hero Pack - New skins - And more! ##### New Hero: Maco, the adorable menace Predecessor Heroes can be many things: a special figure to their people, vigilantes who uphold justice, or warriors who have chosen the wrong path… Maco is none of them. It’s fair to say Maco is the hero of his own story. Like many of his kind - the Critterkin, inhabitants of Velrune’s forests and subterranean burrows - he loves to sleep, snack, and collect shiny things. As part of his duties, Maco was assigned to guard a shift so the rest of his family could sleep in peace. But his irresistible urge to try on the royal crown - the shiniest of objects - sent everything tumbling: the precious stones were lost, and the fear of a royal telling-off has now launched Maco on a grand quest to find replacement jewels. You can learn more about his story (https://www.predecessorgame.com/en-US/universe/stories/macos-magnificent-mishap). And that’s where we meet him: our new Support Hero, ready to heal you on the battlefield - and perhaps your soul, a little bit too. ##### **Stats** - Health: 675 (+113 per Level) - Health Regen: 1.5 (+0.2 per Level) - Mana: 400 (+38 per level) - Mana Regen: 2 (+0.12 per level) - Attack Speed: 120 (+1.4 per Level) - Physical Armor: 22 (+4.3 per Level) - Magical Armor: 27 (+0.95 per Level) - Physical Power: 57 (+3.9 per Level) - Movement Speed: 665 - BAT: 1.2 ##### **Abilities** **Mach Speed! \** As Maco moves, he gains stacks of Movement Speed up to 15% (+0.75% per level). When Maco reaches 25 stacks, he gains Mach Speed, which grants him Slow Immunity. After taking Damage from Enemy Heroes or standing still, he retains all buffs for 3s before they are removed. Ta-Da! [Basic Attack] Ranged basic attack dealing 57 (+55% Physical Power) physical damage. Additionally, Maco gains a stack each time he successfully Basic Attacks an Enemy, up to a max of 4. At max stacks, Maco’s next ability’s Cooldown is reduced by 1s and all stacks are removed. **Maco Gift! \** **CD: **7s **Cost:** 50/75/100/125/150 Health **Active:** Maco lobs a gemstone that hurts or heals depending on the Target hit. If Maco hits an Ally, they are Healed for 50/70/80/110/130 (+35% Magical Power) Health in addition to 1/1.5/2/2.5/3% of their Max Health. Allies also gain 10/12/14/16/18% (+3% Magical Power) Movement Speed for 3s. If Maco hits an Enemy, they take 75/110/145/180/215 (+50% Magical Power) magical damage. Maco cannot hit himself with this ability. **Passive:** Hitting either Allied or Enemy Heroes with any ability Heals you for 20/30/40/50/60 (+2% Magical Power) (+0.3% Max Health) Health. Using this ability costs Health instead of Mana. **Maco Fly! \** **CD: **16/15.25/14.5/13.75/13s **Cost: **80/85/90/95/100 Maco leaps high into the air before slamming back down to the ground with his gemstone, dealing 80/110/140/170/200 (+85% Magical Power) magical damage to Enemies and Slowing them by 25% (+3% Magical Power) for 1.5s. If Maco hits an Enemy Hero, he gains a 80/135/190/245/300 (+40% Magical Power) (+7.5% Max Health) Health Shield for 4.5s. After landing, Maco dashes slightly in the direction he is currently moving. **Maco Sparkle! \** **CD: **13/12.5/12/11.5/11s **Cost:** 70/75/80/85/90 Maco throws a slow-moving gemstone that explodes at its max range, or when detonated early by reactivating the ability.
