The sever matinence tomorrow is a balance patch. Here's the copy and pasted version.

Toxic Chomper Dev Notes: Toxic Chomper relies too heavily on his Damage Over Time to be effective against enemies. Compared to other Chompers, Toxic Chomper’s damage output is quite low. This change should help him keep up with the other guys.
 * Increased damage from 6 to 8. Fixed bug where his DoT was being applied twice.

Captain Squawk Dev Notes: This should help him be more accurate in mid-range fights, while still requiring more patience than other pirates to get those extremely high-damage critical hits from farther off.
 * Decreased how wide his reticle blooms per shot, but kept the time for his reticle to recover the same. Increased accuracy within his reticle space.

Tank Commander Dev Notes: Tank Commander is both too weak at low levels, and too strong at high levels (with certain upgrades equipped). Increasing his reload speed makes him stronger at lower levels, while decreasing the strength of his reload upgrades evens him out at higher levels.
 * Reduced reload time from 2 to 1.65 seconds.
 * Decreased each reload upgrade by 2%.

Hover-Goat 3000 Torchwood Dev Notes: The slight increase of damage to both their primary weapons and their weapon modifying abilities will help these guys fare better in close and mid-range fights.
 * Increased close range damage of primary weapon from 6.5 to 7.
 * Increased close range damage of Mega Awesome Laser from 10.5 to 11.5.
 * Increased close range damage of primary weapon from 5 to 6.
 * Increased close range damage of Smoldering Madness from 5.5 to 6.

Frozen State Dev Notes: Frozen state lasts a little too long. We want to reward players who manage to freeze an enemy, but not be so punishing that said enemy has no hope once frozen. With this change, players should feel less helpless when facing ice characters.
 * Decreased duration of frozen state from 2.5 to 2.1 seconds.

Frozen Citron Arctic Trooper AC Perry Dev Notes: These characters are all freezing too quickly. AC Perry is especially tough since his splash damage causes freezing. We found that players would often be frozen before they realized they were getting attacked. This change should give players enough time to react.
 * Decreased freeze rate by 20%
 * Decreased freeze rate by 10%
 * Decreased freeze rate by 40%

Imp Dev Notes: Decreasing the amount of time enemies are caught in the gravity zone requires Imps to be a little more skilled in finishing off their targets.
 * Decreased duration of Gravity Grenade from 3 to 2.5 seconds.

Super Brainz Dev Notes: Due to its high damage and speed reduction effect, Super Brainz’ Turbo Twister ability is difficult to counter. Reducing the damage and speed reduction will give plants more of an opportunity to react.
 * Decreased damage of Turbo Twister from 8 to 6.
 * Decreased Turbo Twister speed reduction effect on enemies from 50% to 25%.
