The full patch notes for Backpack Battles patch 0.9.6 on April 19 are below:

Hey everyone,

It’s time for another patch! It’s the first week where Pyromancers were not on top of the charts, so rejoice, Pyromancer players, there won’t be major nerfs for you this time.

While this does not mean that class balance is perfect, we are getting closer. This patch will mostly focus on subclass balance now and start a journey to get them all viable!
