============================================================ demoSWR... became lolSWR... and then hypeSWR... This next phase in swirr's evolution is entirely imaginary. This is not supposed to have any special meaning. It's obviously not going to happen and the auther doesn't suggest it would. This has no point. Feel free to stop reading here. ============================================================ If you decided to keep reading, here's a brief explenation of what your eyes are about to witness: In an imaginary world where Aqo works at Tasofro, here are the patch notes for SWR1.07: * General 01.1 Each character has a new stat, the [Escape orb]. Escape orbs show above the card meter. They display a number which can have values from 0 to 3. It is 1 in the beginning of each round. 01.2 Every time you limit your opponent, you will gain 1 extra point to your Escape orb, up to 3. 01.3 Every time you ground BE, you will lose 1 point from your Escape orb. Air BE costs two orbs. 01.4 Trying to BE when you have zero escape orb meter will have no effect. 02.1 If you block a ground attack while in the air (commonly referred to as "chickenblocking") the defending character will fall down with each hit, instead of going up like previously. Blocking air attacks will still push you up. 03.1 The weather [Typhoon] has been modified. All old effects of the weather have been removed. The new effects of the weather are as follows: - All HJs during typhoon are vulnerable to bullets. 03.2 The weather [Spring Haze] has been modified. All old effects of the weather have been removed. The new effects of the weather are as follows: - Dash attacks (66 + A/B/C) do not work. 03.3 The weather [River Mist] has been modified. All old effects of the weather have been removed. The new effects of the weather are as follows: - Every time you use a melee attack, whether it hits or not, it will cause both characters to be slightly pulled towards each other. 04.1 Instant Air Dashes (IAD) have been enabled. You may now airdash during a jump. 05.1 The amount of orbs that flight consumes is now based on how high you're flying. The amount remains the same up to 3 charater heights, becomes 1.5x at 4 heights, and 2x at higher flights. 06.1 Yuyuko's stage has been modified. Instead of snow, it is now inside a temple of spirits, using the same colorset from Stage 6 in PCB. 06.2 Tenshi's stage has been modified. The setting is similar but with dark red clouds and overall maroon palette. 06.3 Sakuya's stage has been modified. It is now the night version of the block tower. Remilia is now allowed to appear on this stage. 07.1 The mechanics of using spellcards has been modified. To use spellcards with the cost 1-2 you still just hit B+C. To use 3cost spellcards you need to hit 236B+C. To use 4cost spellcards you need 623B+C. To use 5cost spellcards you need 63214B+C. 07.2 Failing to hit the correct key sequence for the card you have selected will result in no effect. * Balance Reimu Hakurei: - [Dimensional Rift] (421BC) B version damage reduced from 1100 to 600.
