We aim to balance creep-clearing speeds across all Junglers. Currently, Alpha's creep-clearing speed is a bit too fast.
[Passive]
New Effect: This skill only deals 75% damage to Creeps.
After the Emblem changes, Alpha is too powerful in the early game, so we're toning down his damage and HP Regen.
Passive - Beta, Advance!

Skill 2 - Force Swing
Base Damage: 250-500 → 180-500

Passive - Beta, Advance!
Each time Alpha uses a skill, he summons Beta to attack and mark the target. Beta will launch 3 laser strikes upon reaching 2 marks. Each of Beta's first two laser strikes deals an amount of True Damage and briefly reduces the target's Movement Speed, and the final one is an AOE attack that deals even more True Damage.
Skill 2 - Force Swing
After charging the skill for a while, Alpha strikes forward in a fan-shaped area, dealing Physical Damage. Each hit restores HP. Then Beta strafes the enemies within the area, dealing Physical Damage.
Ultimate - Alpha, Charge!
Alpha commands Beta to smash down at a set location, dealing Physical Damage and inflicting stun. At the same time, Alpha flies over to the area and deals Physical Damage to targets in his path, knocking them airborne toward his destination, and then smashing down to deal Physical Damage and slow them. After Alpha smashes down, Beta launches 5 AOE strikes upon the target area, each dealing Physical Damage.

Beta's Base Damage: 75 → 120
Ultimate - Alpha, Charge!
Cooldown: 20-12s → 16-12s
Alpha's performance in battle is still undesirable after the previous adjustments. According to our observation, we've decided to dramatically reduce cooldowns of all this skills, both to increase his playability and to make his Passive triggered more often. Of course, to maintain a balance, we've also slightly weakened the effects of his skills for single uses.
Passive - Beta, Advance!
New Effect: Continuous attacks slow the target by 90% each time, for 0.2s.

After the last adjustments on Alpha, we have found that his damage in the late game is still inadequate. Thus, we have increased Beta's damage when Alpha has hit the enemy with his Ultimate. We hope those players who are skilled at Alpha can deal more damage with his Ultimate.
