Here are the main balance adjustments made to various characters in the Squad Busters Transformer’s update:

El Primo: His health has been boosted, and the frequency of his Flying Elbow Drop has increased, enhancing his intimidation factor in Desert World.
Medic: The healing capacity of both Medic and their Heal Packs has been enhanced, ensuring their continued effectiveness amid recent health adjustments in the game.
Dynamike: The attack speed and dynamite speed of Dynamike have both been increased, making him more powerful for long-range, sustained combat scenarios.
Super Bandit: Now drops additional Gems, increasing rewards for players who can take him down.
Leon: His Invisibility Spell has received a significant rework. Leon’s squad will no longer become visible when they get too close to an enemy; they remain invisible only until they attack or take damage. This change simplifies the spell’s use and enhances counterplay opportunities.

Battle Mod Updates in Squad Busters Transformers Update

Below are some of the modifications made to existing battle modifiers:

Crystal Forest: Hero Greg now chops trees more quickly, improving resource gathering efficiency. Additionally, Crystal Trees appear more frequently, keeping the game pace lively.
Timeout: To streamline timing, the timer will no longer accelerate during the Final Stretch, and its maximum length has been reduced. Clock pickups will now provide less time as the battle progresses, but they will be available from a larger variety of sources, such as Glimmers, Trees, and Monsters, raising the stakes in late-game scenarios.
Hatchling Herder: Players can now merge three Giant Hatchlings, significantly increasing their health and Gem value by three times. However, the Gem value prior to fusion has been decreased to highlight the importance of the fusion mechanic. More Giant Hatchlings will spawn throughout the battle.
