We made some change to defend skills - The skill that associated to specific maps and place under the right bar instead of left bar like unit's skills. While most of them remain unchanged, we made some of them become a roulette skills, where you spin the roulette and stop it then hope for the best, you could try to timing it to some extend but it's still mostly random.
