CHAMPION CHANGES

KINDRED Image

KINDRED

[HOTFIX] Kindred has tumbled onto the Rift and been delivering death in both Lanes and Jungle alike, dominating in games. We’re dialing back their early damage so their opponents are able to fight back.

BRAUM Image

BRAUM

We’re buffing Braum’s damage so he can protect his team better both in the early game, as well as in teamfights later on. Now when he shouts, “stand behind me!” You can trust he will stay there.

GRAVES Image

GRAVES

Graves hasn’t been measuring up against other Junglers, especially when he falls behind in items. We’re tweaking some numbers around so he can keep up.


  • BASE STATS

    • Base Attack Damage: 64 → 66
    • Base Health: 570 → 630

    LIGHTNING RUSH

    • Bonus Movement Speed: 110% → 100%

Lee Sin is able to gain advantages early and deal massive amounts of damage to his enemies. These changes will give his opponents a chance to catch their breath.

    • Base Health: 650 → 630

  • Ability Icon

    Dragon's Rage

    • Damage: 100/300/500 + 200% bonus Attack Damage + 10/13/16% target’s maximum Health → 100/250/400 + 200% bonus Attack Damage + 10/13/16% target’s maximum Health
MORGANA Image

MORGANA

We’ve buffed Morgana’s ability to protect her teammates so she can shine both as a damage dealer and a support. We are also tweaking her damage to monsters so she’s more in-line with other Junglers.


  • Ability Icon

    TORMENTED SHADOW

    • Damage to monsters: 225% → 195%

  • Ability Icon

    BLACK SHIELD

    • Duration: 4s → 5s
NAUTILUS Image

NAUTILUS

Nautilus hasn’t been as tanky as he should be. These changes will let him soak up all the damage he needs to for his carries to shine.


  • Ability Icon

    TITAN'S WRATH

    • Shield value: 55/65/75/85 + 11/12/13/14% maximum Health → 55/65/75/85 + 12/13/14/15% maximum Health
    • Damage: 40/50/60/70 + 40% Ability Power → 50/60/70/80 + 40% Ability Power
SERAPHINE Image

SERAPHINE

Our blossoming popstar could use some more limelight. These changes will help her reach the stardom she deserves late games!

    • Cooldown: 23/20/17/14s → 22/19/16/13s
    • Bonus Movement Speed: full level 20% → 20/22.5/25/27.5%

    • Healing: 6.5% + 0.01% Ability Power→ 7.5% + 0.01% Ability Power
SYNDRA Image

SYNDRA

We are toning down Syndra’s damage so she’s not overpowering the other mages in-game. She is still going to be a strong late game carry, but not unreasonable to deal with.


  • Ability Icon

    TRANSCENDENT

    • Ability Power increases when gaining 120 Splinters of Wrath: 15% → 12%

  • Ability Icon

    FORCE OF WILL

    • Cooldown: 11/10/9/8s → 12/11/10/9

TALON Image

TALON

Our newest Noxian assassin has been clearing the Jungle real fast so we’re nerfing his damage to monsters. We’ve also noticed he’s pretty slow vaulting over walls which is subpar for an assassin of his caliber. Now he’ll be able to go through terrain more flexibly.


  • Ability Icon

    BLADE'S END

    • Damage to monsters: 120% → 90%

  • Ability Icon

    ASSASSIN'S PATH

    • Increase Talon’s speed of vaulting over terrains and turrets by 10%
VOLIBEAR Image

VOLIBEAR

Who told him he can disable the Nexus?!


  • Ability Icon

    STORMBRINGER

    • Disable no longer applies to enemy Nexus.
Wukong Image

Wukong

The Monkey King is getting his highly anticipated rework this patch! Now he should be able to survive longer in teamfights, deal more damage, and have more room for outplays.


  • BASE STATS

    • Base Health Regen: 9 → 12

  • Ability Icon

    CRUSHING BLOWS

    • [Removed] Crushing Blow: Attacks apply marks on the target and deal bonus damage from each stack, maximum to 5 stacks.
    • [New] Stone Skin: Wukong gains stacks of Stone Skin when he attacks enemy champions with base attacks and abilities. Each stack grants him 10 -18 armor and 1.5% max health regeneration every 5s, up to 3 stacks.

  • Ability Icon

    GOLDEN STAFF

    • [Removed] Health Regen.
    • [New] Passive: Golden Staff adds an empowering effect on Wukong’s base attacks every 12s. Takedowns will reduce Golden Staff’s passive Cooldown by 2s. The Cooldown of the passive will be reduced by 2s per level, and killing enemy champions will refresh the Cooldown.
    • Damage of empowered base attack: 40/60/80/100 + 35/40/45/50% Attack Damage → 50/70/90/110 + 35/40/45/50% Attack Damage

    • [New] Now the clone can move with the joystick control and can mimic (3) Nimbus Strike to dash.

  • Ability Icon

    NIMBUS STRIKE

    • [Removed] Multiple dashes to the same target.
    • Damage: 60/95/130/165 + 80% bonus Attack Damage → 80/120/160/200 + 80% bonus Attack Damage

  • Ability Icon

    CYCLONE

    • Damage: 220% Attack Damage + 8/12/16% target maximum Health → 220% Attack Damage + 10/14/18% target maximum Health


    Wukong rework will be live on March 21 at 00:01 UTC

YUUMI Image

YUUMI

Yuumi has been protecting her best friends a little too well. These changes will make sure she’s measuring up against her opponents and allows players to have more decision making power when it comes to her abilities.


  • Ability Icon

    YOU AND ME!

    • Adaptive power: (8/14/20/26 + (5 + 0.25 per level)% bonus Attack Damage) or (16/28/40/52 + (5 + 0.25 per level)% Ability Power) → (8/14/20/26 + (2+ 0.15 per level)% bonus Attack Damage) or (16/28/40/52 + (2 + 0.15 per level)% Ability Power)

  • Ability Icon

    FINAL CHAPTER

GAMEPLAY CHANGES

We’ve noticed the length of some Doublecast games are dragging out too long. The pace of the game can get sluggish, especially in late-game. Meanwhile, the buffs from Baron Nashor and Elder Dragon are not strong enough to push a team to ending the game. We’re tweaking both to make sure players are gaining worthwhile advantages with these buffs.

Buff Duration

  • 100s → 120s

Minion Damage Reduction from nearby Champions

  • 65% → 67%

Champion Damage reduction

Buff Duration

  • 90s → 120s

Execution
