Yoru In patch 10.08, Yoru's Dimensional Drift cost and duration have both been nerfed. The duration of the Dimensional Drift is now reduced to 10 seconds from 12 seconds, while it will now cost 8 Ultimate Points instead of 7.

This will allow players to avoid the burning damage as they will be able to hear the position of the molotov better.
