Yes, MR Cat 9 and RC Tier 5 are the big losers, along with both programs' old Cat 2. Though the net change of all properties averaged to a 3-4% decrease, those 4 tiers saw 14-18% increases in points required.

Fortunately, there are only 92 old Cat 9s. The 955 old Cat 7/8 and SPG 6/7 all dropped, so there are still options below the top 2%.
