Hey everyone, here is our first feature update for Brawlhalla Alpha. The four existing Legends (Bödvar, Cassidy, Völst, Lord Vraxx) now have stat and power differences, check out what makes each one unique. We did a batch of great changes suggested by the community, thanks for all the feedback! In addition to that we fixed a pile of bugs, made some balance changes, and improved lag slightly (don't worry we're still working on lag and there's plenty more to come).
