As ROWPLAYON approaches its 10th anniversary, we have reflected on the many events and changes we have experienced over the years.

It is only natural for us to continue thinking about new ways to make the game more enjoyable and address stagnant gameplay.

From the past to the present, we have made various efforts to maintain game balance, including addressing MK's lack of players, the population imbalance caused by KR's relatively larger player base, introducing limited-time items to help resolve these issues, and preventing the Evo series from becoming overly powerful.

For nearly 10 years, MK has consistently faced difficult battles and often found itself on the losing side. Nevertheless, we sincerely thank the MK players who have continued to play and support the game. We would also like to thank KR players for understanding the difficulties and disadvantages that MK has faced.

Recently, both races have been growing at a more equal rate, creating increasingly interesting and enjoyable gameplay. As a result, we introduced new war content.

The advantages of MK as a smaller but elite group have become increasingly apparent, particularly in 1-party vs. 1-party battles, where MK's strengths have been clearly demonstrated.

Therefore, following today's GM meeting, we have concluded that the stats of MK's limited-time items can now be adjusted to the same level as KR's. As you may know, the stats of MK's limited-time items have previously been set slightly higher.

We have adjusted the limited-time item stats for both defensive equipment and offensive weapons so that MK and KR are now at similar or equivalent levels. As a result, you will notice that the stats of MK's items have been reduced accordingly. KR's limited-time item stats will remain unchanged.

There is also something that the GM team found rather disappointing.

We were quite surprised by the actions and chat messages of certain MK users—who utilize limited-time items—mocking KR players who put sincere effort and actual financial investment into crafting regular items, questioning why they spent money on them.

We would like to emphasize once again that limited-time items were introduced as part of our efforts to support the growth and revival of MK. This was also something that KR players understood and accepted.

We will not accept individual inquiries regarding the changed item stats. We have determined that KR and MK are now on equal footing, and therefore this decision has been made to bring their item stats to the same level.

The update is scheduled to take place around 12:00 PM on September 2.

Thank you.
