Joule takes 30% reduced damage when hit from the front or sides.

Rocket Leap
Slot: A

Joule leaps to a target location. Enemies caught underneath Joule take full damage and are stunned, while enemies near the impact are slowed and take 50% damage.

Thunder Strike
Slot: B

Joule's mech fires an energy bolt directly in front of her.
  • Cooldown decreases with attack speed.
  • Deals reduced damage to minions.

Big Red Button
Slot: C

Joule fires a massive beam of energy for 1.5s.
  • The force of this beam pushes Joule backward during channeling.
  • Deals 50% less damage to structures.

Game Progression
Glory

Meaningful game progression has begun. At the conclusion of every match, you’ll receive “spoils of war” in the form of Glory and Karma. For now, save up your Glory to unlock new heroes. But know: We’re working on a lot more super-secret stuff for you to spend Glory on. This is only the beginning, and we can’t wait to reveal the other stuff you can spend Glory on!

In addition all players with registered Vainglory profiles PRIOR to this update have been given enough Glory to unlock all 8 original heroes as a thank you from Super Evil Mega Corp. Rock on!

Karma & AFK Punishments

The goal of Karma is to protect players who finish their matches from those who don't.
