== Captain's Pick == * The lobby host can now manually designate a team to get the First Ban before the game starts. * Number of Rounds in the first Banning Phase increased from 2 to 3. ** Total number of Hero Bans in the first Banning Phase increased from 4 to 6. * Hero Pick alternation method changed. ** Current method: 1-1-1-1-1-1 (total of 6 picks, 3 per team) for the first Hero Pick Phase, then 1-1-1-1 (total of 4 picks, 2 per team) for the second Hero Pick Phase. ** New method: 1-2-2 (total of 5 hero picks, 3 for the team that has First Ban and 2 for the other team) for the first Hero Pick Phase, then 2-2-1 (total of 5 picks, 3 for the team did not have First Ban and 2 for the other team) for the second Hero Pick Phase. * Base time per Hero Pick Phase increased from 30 seconds to 35 seconds. * Second Banning Phase now begins with the team that did not have First Ban at the start of the game. <br /> * These changes should reduce the advantages of the team that has the first hero pick and gives the team that goes second some opportunity to counter pick in the drafting phase of the game. * Overall, these changes allow for increased hero pick diversity in competitive tournaments!
