General

• Blessing of the Nile is getting a nice quality of life adjustment.
• Previously, Blessing of the Nile would fall off while in the full duration of Sobek's Ultimate, which felt awkward. Now, Blessing of the Nile lasts for 6 seconds, allowing more time for Sobek to land a new Ability or fully charge his Ultimate on a target.

Blessing of the Nile

• Changed the tooltip to accurately reflect the buff's 3s duration.

Sickening Strike

• Fixed an issue with rank 5 of this ability costing 85 mana instead of the intended 80.

General

• After looking at Sobek's performance and his limiting factors, we chose to lower the Mana costs on his abilities as well as give his Ultimate more utility. Lowering his Mana costs means he should be able to protect his teammates and catch enemies much more often. Increasing the utility on his Ultimate means he has better engage potential with this ability, while also allowing this Ultimate to act as a much stronger deterrent for chasing enemies.
