MultiVersus' latest patch is an important one. Season 1.01 brings balancing changes to several heroes; two perks are tweaked, and Morty is finally added to the game.
When using the Ice To Beat You! perk, ice debuff to fighters will only be applied by projectiles if they aren’t already debuffed by ice. I’ll Take That perk decreases both unstacked and stacked cooldown refunds to 0.25 seconds and 0.5 seconds, respectively.
The patch buffs Arya, Finn, and Harley. The Iron Giant received a “giant” nerf, Velma received a minor nerf, and Superman a minor bug fix. The changes related to Garnet and Taz will come in the next patch.
