Omega Strikers - December 5th Update | Ahten Winter Festival!
HELLO Strikers.
We’ve got a big one today, full of SURPRISES for you all. What surprises, you may ask?
NEW STUFF!
A key part of this update is an exciting feature that we know you’ve been asking about for a while…
We’ve finally added voice chat to Omega Strikers, and, even better, we've partnered up with Discord to give you seamless, reliable communication features directly within the game.
It’s super simple to do, all you need is to link your Discord account to Omega Strikers and you’ll be able to happily chat away with your Goalie when they miss a save! You won’t be mean! Surely!
It’ll also import your Discord friends right to OS so you don’t have to worry about searching them up and finding them - as long as they have their Discord accounts linked.
We’ll also have it so you can chat with your buds in-game via Discord so it syncs with your account. Never miss a message again when your friend tells you to hop on!
Don’t have a Discord account? That’s chill too - you can still join voice calls and everything in-game. You’ll just be missing out on the automatic friend syncing and Discord message syncing.
Please note that this feature will only be available on the PC version of Omega Strikers at this time!
We've also got new skins for your favorite characters, balance changes, new emotes (and 2 more emote slots actually), and NEW SKINS BRO FOR REAL.
Alright, let’s check out the details, shall we?

STRIKERS
Drek’arDrek is near the bottom of pick rate in most tiers of play, and in higher tiers especially he’s been pretty weak. We’re giving him a slight tap to bring that up a bit. Xeno Cloak Ability damage buff :: 25% → 30%12.5% → 15% to CoreDubuMy tofu man here is pretty strong in every tier of play and he has a lot of people picking him. Just gonna tone him down a tiny little bit. Somerassault Cooldown :: 17s → 18sDamage :: 220 → 230JulietteHUGE nerf. Juliette is performing decently above average in all tiers - enough to warrant keeping an eye on if it continues. She hasn’t been at the top in a while though, so it’s chill. For now……Fiery Fist Cooldown :: 7.5s → 8sKaiKai isn’t really doing super great anywhere. Giving him a boost to his power but making sure he doesn’t go crazy with across-map snipes. Base statsPower :: 90 → 95Giga Blast Damage / Knockback :: 240 → 235MakoThis Little Drummer Girl shines best when she simply has good teammates and she boosts them.Drum and Base Haste :: 25% → 23.5%Ensnare Drums Cooldown :: 40s → 38sRuneSmall adjustment to Rune. More reward for landing the like hardest skill shot in the game (AT LEAST IN MY HUMBLE OPINION!!!!!)Unstable Anomaly Pillar damage :: 187.5 + 93.75% → 180 + 90%Shadow Swap Pillar damage :: 187.5 + 93.75% → 180 + 90%Banish Cooldown :: 35s → 34sDamage :: 260 + 130% → 270 + 135%XEven though it was kind of a bralwer meta, X was not feeling too hot. This should give him a little bit more mobility around the map but not make him rely on a strike reset crutch.Bull Rush Cooldown: 15s → 14sX Maximus! Cooldown :: 37.5s → 38s

Size :: 30% → 25%Explosive EnteranceThis is generally pretty weak except on some characters (Zentaro) and some characters could use an indirect buff (Zentaro)Damage :: 12.5% → 13% (2.5% → 3.25% core)Magnetized SolesFar and away the best Gear everywhere, just gonna bring it down the tiniest tad to give the others more appeal.Speed :: 25% → 23%Super SurgeSuper Surge is underperformaing compared to its class, but I’m not trying to touch speed too much atm. Damage to core :: 6% → 7.5%Vicious VambraceThe least popular of the gear, Vambrace is often left to the wayside. This may help a touch in a more KO-focused meta. Stagger restore from hitting Core :: 9% → 10%
