Sunday, March 15th, 2026 at 15:29 by LyncWelcome to the Major Update 1.6.0.
First of all I'd like to thank the entire community for the feedback they gave us over the last update about the chakra system. We have taken your suggestions into account and made a few improvements. Please report to us along the usual community channels as per usual, we're always reading even if we don't always reply.
Secondly, I'd like to apologize to the community. I understand that the meta gets stale and it gets frustating to always have to deal with the same characters, but this time I wanted to do a test and see how things would go without an update in between the major updates. We will be returing to the usual biweekly schedule, fear not.
Let's move on to the actual update! We're introducing 5 new characters for you to play while nerfing the meta that has been swarming the ladder. The characters are fewer in number, but it's also because February had fewer days than a usual month and there was some trouble setting them up.
New Characters:
Edo Tensei Ginkaku (S)
Edo Tensei Ginkaku (S) is one half of the legendary gold and silver brothers of the Hidden Cloud Village. They were the most notorious criminals in the history of the Hidden Cloud.
Edo Tensei Kinkaku (S)
Edo Tensei Kinkaku (S) is one half of the Gold and Silver brothers, said to have been swallowed by Kyuubi and gaining its' Chakra, Kinkaku uses his chakra and legendary tools to fight.
Hachibi Bee (S)
Having fully bonded with and gained control of the Eight-Tails, Gyuuki, and thus having become what is known as a perfect jinchuuriki, Killer Bee is able to use its abilities to their fullest extent. Using the Eight-Tails' protective chakra to gradually become much stronger, Bee can run a rampage on the battlefield.
Hoshigaki Kisame (S)
Hoshigake Kisame (S) is the partner of Uchiha Itachi in Akatsuki. He is an expert swordsman and missing nin from the Hidden Mist Village.
Hoshigaki Kisame (S)
After merging with the sentient blade Samehada, Kisame transforms into a monstrous shark-like being. In this form, he reigns supreme underwater, draining chakra upon contact and relentlessly hunting his prey within a vast, moving prison of water.
As always thank you to everyone involved in this balance and for the patience the community has given us,
Yours truly,
-- Lync
