"Today you’ll see some EXPERIMENTAL Vel’Koz changes on PBE.

Goal is to give him better defensive options by making E more reliable when cast at short range."

Changes:

E:

• Travel time: .55s >>> variable, from .25s - .55s based on distance

• missile spawns at Vel’koz’s location >>> missile spawns at cast location

• No longer draws the circle indicator until after the .25s cast time (this will it hard to dodge if you can’t see him or aren’ paying attention)

• Fixed a bug where the spell would fizzle when V’K flashes or is knocked back at max range
