They don't mention the 300/600/900 -> 250/500/750 caut change though, that's weird.

Here are the balance notes https://www.paladins.com/news/voras-pact-update-notes

The interesting thing about bans

1. Depends on what draft you're trying to do. The map. And what the players on your team are good at. Whether your DPS players are KBM or controller. etc
2. It's not fully solved yet. Even last patch, NA and EU team disagreed on what to ban. And this patch is totally new; who knows.

I expect these to get banned: Jenos, Io, Raum, Androxus, snipers, Shalin ( pc)

Lex is a possibility.

Vivian/Viktor: probably not permabans on PC anymore, tho idk about console.

Torvald. NA teams think he's busted. EU doesn't. Torv is nuts if he's duoing with a good DPS player and both are in comms, though Ranked isn't as coordinated as scrims.

1. I'm a masters player who scrims mid-high T2, and I placed gold 4 my first time. It's fine. I don't know if it's normal, but it's nothing to worry about if you want to grind, mostly because...
2. ... you can skip ranks if you have a high enough win rate. Personal performance doesn't affect your rank.
3. It stops at around high diamond/masters iirc. It's been a while since I've grinded rank though so I could be wrong.
4. Every 2 months, and there's a week or two of PTS (public test server) before it goes live. You came back at a weird time, there's a massive balance update (https://www.paladins.com/news/a-tigrons-tale-update-notes) going live in around a month. That being said, power creep seems to be one of the things that they're addressing, which is nice.
5. There's MyPaladins too, but Guru is better imo.

I would definitely check out Dinns' post, he's pretty much the go to for this sub.
