  Standard2 retains round and class limits for more organized play

@ Balance Changes
The Sandman
+ Removed health penalty on wearer
- Added: Marked-For-Death for 3 seconds after launching ball


Sharpened Volcano Fragment
+ Volcano effect maxes out temperature of target
+ Volcano effect heals Pyro for 30% of damage dealt to target
- Removed health granted on-kill against Volcano marked target
The reward was significantly worsened on the weapon since it's last version. For this version, the healing provided is much more immediate to boost pyro's survivability, while also giving the pyro a slight damage boost with their flamethrower to better synergize with its use against crowds.

Claidheamh Mòr
+ On-kill: weapon will next holster 50% faster
- Removed reloading your primary on-kill
The upside for a kill was rather extreme to benefit a hybrid-knight, while also not giving much benefit to a normal demoman. Instead, this holster benefit will do well for any demo but a full demoknight, allowing for a faster follow-up after making a kill and synergizing with the aim of the weapon's aim towards getting picks.

Short Circuit
+ Removed charging effect for alt-fire
- Reduced base speed of alt-fire orb to 20%
The charge was seen as unnecesary for how it hindered the user in using the weapon. Thusly, the orb's speed was just limited to be maintain the intended effect on the engineer's ability to deny projectiles.

The Vaccinator
- Reduced critical damage resistance from 75% to 70%
A slight tweak to make the expected damage dealt from crits more easily guessed, being 2x the normally reduced damage

Solemn Vow
- Increased movement speed penalty while active to -20% (was -10%)
The downsides of the weapon were not seem as punishing enough for a Medic choosing to draw the weapon too greedily.

Sydney Sleeper
+ Added +50% clip size
- Removed reload speed bonus
The sustain of the weapon was improved to make reloading often less necessary for the increased number of shots you'll be likely making to mark or take down targets. In exchange, it's reload speed bonus was removed as it was unnecessary to have both upsides for the buff.

Cloaking
+ Flamethrowers do not ignite a cloaked spy below 50% temperature
A buff to Spy's interactions with Pyros, requiring a Pyro be more active in their spychecking than permitting them to randomly spread flames to reveal one.
