PSA: Changes to Zz'Rot Portal Incoming
Active / Void Gate duration lowered to 120 seconds from 150 seconds Active / Void Gate cooldown lowered to 120 seconds from 150 seconds. Voidling Health per level lowered to 0 from 50. Voidling current health decay per tick increased to 20% from 10% Voidling Structure Damage per level increased to 20 (360 at 18) from 5 (90 at 18). Voidlings no longer add to the creep score of enemies who kill them.
Basically, there are four things to be aware of:
- Void Gates are now less "place and forget" and therefore better at offensive use than defensive use since you would often place a Zz'Rot Portal to push a pushed in lane to prevent minions from getting a tower.
- Void Gates are much worse when alone since they no longer gain health per level, meaning minions can pretty much evaporate them.
- Void minions last for half the duration, meaning you have to put a Zz'Rot Portal twice as close to the tower than before (no more half a map distance Zz'Rot Portals).
- Void Gates now decimate towers. The normal Void minion now deals up to 360 damage to a structure. For comparison, an enhanced Void minion deals ABOUT this much as bonus damage usually. It's a good bit more damage.
