Slightly increased minion clearing ability in the early-mid game and sustained damage ability in the late game.
Skill 1 - Void Blast BUFF
Magic Bonus: 120% >> 150%
Skill 2 - Void Crystal BUFF
Sustained Damage: 50-125 >> 75-125
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation ADJUST
Damage of Swipe: 65-125 >> 85-125
New Effect: Reveals the position of targets within range.
We aim to give Yve an effective passive skill while enhancing her sustained damage output when her Ultimate is unavailable. This should enable her with some self-protection capability.
This change will greatly increase Skill 1's tap damage output, so we've reduced Skill 2's damage for balance and to make each skill's function more distinct.
Passive - Galactic Power REVAMP
Yve gains a stack of shield when dealing damage to enemy heroes with her skills. The shield can stack up to 3 times and lasts for 3s.
Skill 1 - Void Blast BUFF
Cooldown: 5s-2.5s >> 3s-1.5s
Mana Cost: 65-90 >> 40-65
Damage: 350-600 + 150% Magic Power >> 290-540 + 120% Magic Power
Skill 2 - Void Crystal BUFF
Second Stage Damage: 105-180 + 20% Magic Power >> 50-125 + 10% Magic Power
Mana Cost: 100-150 >> 80-130

Removed the Shield Effect when activating the Ultimate.
Number of Attacks: 15 >> 20

New Effect: Increase camera height when casting the Ultimate.
Slightly increased Yve's damage in the late game and partially restored the previous nerfs to her slow ability, making her more competitive in the current version.
Skill 1- Void Blast
Damage Bonus: 140% Magic Power → 150% Magic Power
Skill 2- Void Crystal
Slow: 25%, up to 50% → 30%, up to 60%
We want to speed up Yve's lane clearing in the early and mid game and make Skill 1 easier to use to give her an edge in the current patch.
Skill 1 - Void Blast
Removed the extra effects for heroes hit in the central area.
Damage: 200-400 +80% Magic Power →
350-600 +140% Magic Power
Cooldown: 6s-2.5s →
5s-2.5s
The nerf on Yve's lane-clearing ability and on the Ice Queen Wand were too much for Yve. We're giving back some of her slowing ability.
Skill 2 - Void Crystal
Slow Effect: Initial 15%, up to 40% → Initial 25%, up to 50%
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation
Slow Effect from Swipe: 40% → 50%
Slightly nerfed Yve's lane-clearing ability.
Skill 1 - Void Blast
The extra damage at the center no longer affects Minions.
Yve can not only speed up but also slow enemies frequently, so we're cutting down her slow ability while keeping her speed-ups.
Skill 2 - Void Crystal
Slow Effect: 25%-75% → 15%-40%
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation
Slow Effect from Swipe: 75% → 40%
Cooldown: 58-50s → 60s
Improved Yve's control and early-game laning abilities.

Slow Effect: 35%-60% → 50%-75%
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation
Optimised the accuracy of the tapping, sliding and edge immobilising ranges.
Slow Effect: 60% → 75%
After the range on Yve's Ultimate was reduced, she had to position closer to the battle and became too easy to counter. Therefore, we're preventing the skill from being interrupted by CC.
Skill 1 - Void Blast
Base Damage: 170-320 + 70% Magic Power → 200-400 + 80% Magic Power
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation
Starfield Area: 7x7 → 5x5 (the size of each block remains unchanged)
New Effect: Cast is no longer interrupted by CCs (excluding Suppression).
Immobilized Time: 0.3s → 0.8s
Cooldown: 65-55s → 50-40s
Tap Damage: 360-490 + 110% Magic Power → 340-540 + 120% Magic Power
Damage slightly reduced.
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation
Slide Attack's Base Damage: 105-165 → 65-125
We want to improve Yve's interaction experience with enemy heroes.
Skill 1 - Void Blast
New Effect: Hitting an enemy with Skill 1 grants 55% extra Movement Speed (halved for non-hero enemies).
New Effect: Hitting an enemy hero in the center area reduces the skill's cooldown by 0.5s.
Mana Cost: 75-100 → 65-90
Base Damage: 180-330 + 80% Magic Power → 170-320 +70% Magic Power
Extra Damage Against Enemies in the Center: 180-330 + 80% Magic Power → 145-295 + 60% Magic Power
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation
New Effect: The Ultimate can now be interrupted by the enemy, while each Passive stack refunds 3% of the Ultimate's cooldown.
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation
Shield: 500-900 + 150% Magic Power → 400-800 + 120% Magic Power
Immobilizing Effect Duration: 0.5s → 0.3s
As a core Mage, Yve excels in her damage output. Nonetheless, with no control effects or defensive measures, she appeared to be a little helpless when under threat from the enemy. To deal with this, we've improved her survivability when casting her Ultimate as well as her ability to shut the enemy down; and to keep things balanced, her damage has been nerfed accordingly.
Skill 1 - Void Blast
Damage per Hit: 200-375 +90% Magic Power → 180-330 +80% Magic Power
Skill 2 - Void Crystal
Each Hit's Base Damage: 110-210 → 90-165
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation
Tap Damage: 400-550 +120% Magic Power → 360-490 +110% Magic Power
Base Slide Damage: 130-210 → 105-165
The former slow effect inflicted when touching the edge of her starfield has been replaced with 0.5s immobilization instead.
New Effect: Yve now gains a large Shield upon casting her Ultimate (500-900 +150% Magic Power, an amount that scales with her Passive stacks to a maximum of 150%). This Shield lasts for 3 seconds after her Ultimate ends, then disappears.
We've greatly increased the response speed when attacking with her Ultimate.
Slightly adjusted the perspective when using her Ultimate, to improve accuracy when using her starfield.
Fixed an issue where the "Hero Lock Mode" could prevent you from sliding when using the Ultimate.
Improved the smoothness of movement following the Ultimate, so that you can now move as usual once it ends, no matter when you start moving the joystick.
A mage wielding the power of the galaxy who can use skills freely in her domain.
Passive - Galactic Power
Yve gains Galactic Power when dealing damage to enemy heroes with "Void Blast" and "Void Crystal". which is capped at 10 stacks. She will consume all the stored Galactic Power when she creates the starfield with her Ultimate, gaining an additional number of casts in the starfield accordingly.
Skill 1 - Void Blast
Yve detonates Galactic Energy in a designated area, dealing Magic Damage to the targets. The targets in the central area will take extra Magic Damage.
Skill 2 - Void Crystal
Yve summons a void crystal in a designated area, dealing Magic Damage to the targets hit. Use Again: The crystal radiates materialized energy in the designated direction, dealing Magic Damage continuously to the targets hit and slowing them.
Ultimate - Real World Manipulation
Yve creates a starfield in a designated direction. During this period, she can cast the Ultimate by tapping the screen. Enemies that come in contact with the starfield will be slowed. (This only takes effect once on the same target.)
Tap: Deals Magic Damage in a designated area in the starfield.
Slide: Deals Magic Damage continuously to the targets in the designated area and slow them.
During this period, Yve is immune to any airborne effects. The starfield will not be canceled when Yve gets controlled. However, she will not be able to cast in the process. When she is suppressed, the starfield will be canceled.
