            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Patch 1.1 just dropped, and it brought some massive systemic changes to <em>MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls</em>. The developers made it clear: they want faster, more aggressive gameplay.</p>
<p>How does this affect the <a class="" href="https://tokontierlist.com/tier-list">Tier List</a>? Let's break down the biggest winners and losers of this patch.</p>
<h2 class="anchor anchorTargetStickyNavbar_Vzrq" id="system-mechanics-changes">System Mechanics Changes<a href="https://tokontierlist.com/news/2026/08/08/patch-1-1-meta-shift#system-mechanics-changes" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to System Mechanics Changes" title="Direct link to System Mechanics Changes" translate="no">​</a></h2>
<p>The biggest change in Patch 1.1 is the adjustment to <strong>Forward Dash Invincibility</strong>. Previously, dashing through projectiles was incredibly difficult, giving heavy zoning characters like <em>Iron Man</em> and <em>Danger</em> a massive advantage.</p>
<p>Now, Forward Dashes have 4 frames of upper-body invincibility at start-up. This means rushdown characters can finally close the gap!</p>
<h2 class="anchor anchorTargetStickyNavbar_Vzrq" id="-the-winners">📈 The Winners<a href="https://tokontierlist.com/news/2026/08/08/patch-1-1-meta-shift#-the-winners" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to 📈 The Winners" title="Direct link to 📈 The Winners" translate="no">​</a></h2>
<h3 class="anchor anchorTargetStickyNavbar_Vzrq" id="wolverine--blade"><strong>Wolverine</strong> &amp; <strong>Blade</strong><a href="https://tokontierlist.com/news/2026/08/08/patch-1-1-meta-shift#wolverine--blade" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to wolverine--blade" title="Direct link to wolverine--blade" translate="no">​</a></h3>
<p>These two are feasting this patch. With the new dash mechanics, <strong>Wolverine</strong> can easily bypass projectile spam and get right into your face with his <em>Drill Claw</em>. <strong>Blade's</strong> <em>Shadow Step</em> also feels much more responsive, solidifying both of them firmly in the S-Tier for rushdown players.</p>
<h3 class="anchor anchorTargetStickyNavbar_Vzrq" id="spider-man"><strong>Spider-Man</strong><a href="https://tokontierlist.com/news/2026/08/08/patch-1-1-meta-shift#spider-man" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to spider-man" title="Direct link to spider-man" translate="no">​</a></h3>
<p>Spider-Man's <em>Web Swing</em> mobility was already good, but now that his ground dash is safer, he can mix up his approach vectors better than anyone else in the cast. Expect to see a lot more Peter Parker in high-level play.</p>
<h2 class="anchor anchorTargetStickyNavbar_Vzrq" id="-the-losers">📉 The Losers<a href="https://tokontierlist.com/news/2026/08/08/patch-1-1-meta-shift#-the-losers" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to 📉 The Losers" title="Direct link to 📉 The Losers" translate="no">​</a></h2>
<h3 class="anchor anchorTargetStickyNavbar_Vzrq" id="danger"><strong>Danger</strong><a href="https://tokontierlist.com/news/2026/08/08/patch-1-1-meta-shift#danger" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to danger" title="Direct link to danger" translate="no">​</a></h3>
<p>Danger relied heavily on her full-screen laser setups to lock opponents down. With players now able to dash through the initial beam, Danger players will have to rely much more on their assists and close-range defensive tools to survive. She drops down to A-Tier.</p>
<h3 class="anchor anchorTargetStickyNavbar_Vzrq" id="iron-man"><strong>Iron Man</strong><a href="https://tokontierlist.com/news/2026/08/08/patch-1-1-meta-shift#iron-man" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to iron-man" title="Direct link to iron-man" translate="no">​</a></h3>
<p>While still potent, Iron Man's <em>Unibeam</em> spam is no longer a guaranteed win condition against less mobile characters. You will need to play a much more balanced, midrange game to succeed with him now.</p>

<p>We have updated our <a class="" href="https://tokontierlist.com/tier-list">Tier List</a> to reflect these changes. Get in the lab and start practicing the new dash timings!</p>]]></content:encoded>
