CHAMPION CHANGES

KAYLE

It’s Kayle rework time! We’re shortening her ult channel time, as well as lengthening the duration of the blade rain. This should allow players to ult and continue fighting smoothly. Kayle will also be able to ascend earlier, allowing her to reach her final form faster. Try her out and let us know what you think!

GAMEPLAY CHANGES

ITEMS

ENCHANTMENT: RAVENOUS HYDRA

Ravenous Hydra is a popular Enchantment but we’re finding it’s stats not impactful enough. We’re increasing its damage and Health restoration while increasing it’s cooldown slightly to balance it out.

Ravenous Crescent (active)

  • Deal adaptive damage (110% Attack Damage + 30% Ability Power) and restore Health by 30% of the damage dealt. (6s cooldown) → Deal adaptive damage (140% Attack Damage +30% Ability Power) and restore Health by 60% of the damage dealt. (10s cooldown)
ARAM CHANGES

SYSTEM CHANGES

GALIO’S AEGIS - LIMITED TIME (BETA)

Players that lose a match will not lose ranking if they achieve S-Level rating.

  • S-Level rating compensation takes precedence over events and Ranked Loss Shields cards. If triggered, will not consume those cards or event bonuses.

Players that lose a match will be compensated for 50% of their current Rank Fortitude if they achieve A-Level rating.

  • Ranked Loss Shields and A-Level rating compensation can trigger at the same time

  • If there is an event that compensates for loss and it is triggered, A-Level rating compensation will not occur.

Players will need to meet the following conditions to receive Galio’s Aegis

  • Platinum rank or above

  • Match duration is greater or equal to 600s

  • No negative behavior during the match

This is an experimental change we are making to help players who perform well in their games even if it results in a game loss. As you experience Galio’s Aegis, please share your thoughts with us as we are constantly looking to improve your ranked experience!
