Leaving this here until STORMS (hopefully) gets the article up.
Paulo Garcia dropped by devildigimon's stream and discussed with us the newest hotfix that came out today that changed Quan Chi, Kano, and Kung Lao. Here's what he told us (all except for the last 4 lines is a direct quote the last 4 are paraphrased because it was broken up between posts):
"upball should have 2 more startup and 6 more recovery frames and quanchi should get out of runes faster
kl teleport inf is gone in it also
runes aren't totally safe but way safer than before
and on rune hits its close to nuetral
cannot cancel b+3,1+2 into trance anymore, it links instead.
Should be easier to end juggles with rune now.
Skarlet's back throw will be fixed in a few days if nothing else comes up, as well as a couple of other skarlet related things.

Yes, that should be all for this one. Curiously, he called this the "Kano Hotfix"

What's up with her backthrow? I noticed it does 17%, anything else?
Actually that's the only problem with it. It's just a damage adjustment. as far as the other fixes/changes for her, he didn't specify.

So nothing about the netcode? (I know it can't happen in a hotfix)
No sorry. He did clarify some things though. The desync issues are indeed mostly caused by the alt costumes, apparently PSN's online is currently better than Xbox's, and Gamespy is not actually running the online servers as most of us thought, it only runs the room/lobby and chat servers. Interesting stuff.
