Summary
This update we're trying something new. Something so free, so crazy, so full of bacon that it just... might... work. All Pros are free this week!
We're also trying to improve our new user experience with an updated landing page that highlights the new user guide, latest stats, news and content. Speaking of new content, check out the new Sniper and Gunslinger uniforms! Plus some entertaining new taunts to show off at the end of a game. Who knew the Wascot knows karate? We also did lots of bug fixing, some balance tweaks, product updates, and more!
