Cap's Shield Sprint Rework Enables Consistent Mid-Range Pressure (Patch 20260320)

Marvel Rivals' 20260320 patch reworks Captain America's Sentinel Strike so shield tosses can be sprinted without canceling damage, boosting consistency and mobility; Cap's first two hits and melee damage are increased to 45, closing the close-range gap with the shield combo. Additional tweaks include Emma Frost (Diamond Form cooldown 18s→15s; Mind's Aegis 70/s→80/s), Black Panther (Spinning Kick dash now omnidirectional; damage 70→75; spear toss recovery 6s→5s), and Gambit (Ragin' Royal Flush duration 10s→8s). Changes come from Season Preview data and go live with the 20260320 update.

Splatoon 3 Update Accidentally Ships Balance Changes Planned for a Future Patch

Nintendo's Splatoon 3 version 11.0.1 fix inadvertently included balance changes meant for a future patch. The changes affect Rapid Blaster and Rapid Blaster Deco (ink-radius increase of about 10%) and the R Blaster Elite/Deco/WNTR (ink consumption up by about 14%). Nintendo won't revert them, as they’re intended for a future update; these tweaks aren’t listed in the 11.0.1 patch notes. A follow-up update will include additional balance changes, and Splatoon 3 will continue receiving updates on Nintendo Switch.
