When Mathilda casts her Ultimate and flies around enemy heroes, she can retreat or attack at any time, making it difficult for enemies to counter. We want to keep her offensive ability while making her harder to use.

Cooldown: 12-11s → 13.5-11s
Ultimate - Circling Eagle
Slow Effect: 35% → 15%
We're happy to see Mathilda back in action, but she was buffed a bit too much, so we're nerfing some aspects of her Ultimate to make her easier to counter.

Duration of Ally's Movement Speed Boost: 2.5s → 2s
Ultimate - Circling Eagle
Wisp Damage: 60-70 → 40 at all levels

New Effect: Transfers Soul Mark to the first target knocked by the second-stage dash.
Reduced the flying speed during the Ultimate's first stage while increasing its max flying duration, allowing Mathilda to better position herself before casing her second-stage dash.
Improved the Ultimate's flying path. Mathilda will no longer fly toward the target. And if she starts too close to the target, she will fly away from the target first so the target hero can't interrupt her flight by closing in on her.
Mathilda is overpowered in high-ranked and professional play, so we're slightly nerfing her abilities while boosting her burst damage on single targets in teamfights.
Skill 1 - Soul Bloom
Base Damage: 375-600 → 350-625
Skill 2 - Guiding Wind
Cooldown: 13-10s → 15-12s

With this round of adjustments, Mathilda's poke capabilities have been reduced, which we hope gives her opponents more room to react. To compensate for this, we've also made it possible for her to have a higher damage cap when played properly, giving players an opportunity to see if they can pull it off.
