Thanks Loglorn for the following SCA2 changeset:

ð > dental stop
aa > wa
Set of nonvolitional inflections from 'to fall’ SVCs
stress on first high before low; first otherwise; loss of tone (this doesn't happen on words which were separate words in Wa Ñi)
The tonal inflections on verbs kind of aren't productive any more due to loss of tone.
loss of adpositions (they turn into case)
PoA assimilation in clusters resulting in dental/alveolar/retroflex split (dental priority, then retroflex)

glottal stop before alveolar C > dental
schwa before alveolar C > retroflex
alveolar/velar + j > palatal(ized)
alveolar/velar + <ř>, <ľ> > retroflex (<wľ> > <ľ>)
alveolar/velar + ð > dental
alveolar/velar + w > velar + w
retroflex + j > palatalized flap
<řd> > ʈ
ʔj, hj > c
h, ʔ > Ø
ã > ŋ / #_V
yã > ɲa
w > Ø / C_ã
3/3 class reanalyzed as 9/9 with -ni suffix
ǝy,ǝw > i,u / _C
ǝ,ã > a
dental/alveolar flap contrast lost
uy > i
wi > ay
