Hey,
Really like this huge list of changes! Currently waiting for the beta to start, but I already have some thoughts on this list:
1. It seems to me that the map now encourages ego play stronger. First, you can do more about the game by hunting bad players and ignoring the rest of the game, as you can more easily get +50% spree bonus that way. Second, you will not want to defend a cp as easily anymore, because it would stop your spree. Third, with assists, you will try to hit the target once, and then let the rest of the team do the work, so you don't end up killing it.
2. Darkness tank looks even more overpowered now, IMHO it was already very close to being overpowered before, but with no mana cost to the missile battery and always stun on orb it's too strong for it's cost imho. Missile battery will probably have to tuned down a little bit on damage side (10% or so) and the mana zapping spell would have to be reduced by about 20%. But that's only from the old version + what I read in your changelog, might report back again if anything changes after some beta games.
3. Shape Memory Alloy should still be limited to max hp healed or to max hp per second IMHO.
Besides that, have you fixed the invul black sun bug? I've seen it more often in the past games, so I was wondering if it's still there.
Also, thanks again for all the many cool other fixes and changes, really like!!!
Cheers

Getting used to the Sand everywhere. At least it brings us map updates.
