3. Comment from Lead Design
Bounties
- Some significant bounty changes coming this patch that have been cooking for a while; some of the reasoning here is to make bounties feel more intuitive to players across both champion and objective bounties
- Would recommend checking out Phreak's patch preview for the nitty gritty details
- The high level is:
- Bounties will be more tightly correlated with gold in and gold out
- When players are negative in bounties, getting gold will bring them back to 0 progressively, rather than a 0-7 player getting 2 kills and then having a 150g bounty, 2 kills may or may not be enough to get someone back to being worth 300g
- Killing players repeatedly will both acquire less bounty, but also give less gold
- Objective bounties will be a bit more based on Gold rather than XP to better match player sensibilities, even if it's less accurate (more aligned with what players associate with leads, especially in Pro Play)
Systems Changes
- Lethal Tempo is a tad weaker than alternatives for the melee carries, so we're giving it a bump after Grasp was nerfed out for them
- This is also to keep the power level roughly the same for them with the BORK nerf
- We acknowledge the concerns around buffing Yone/Yasuo last patch while they're dominant at worlds; the reasoning for that was because 14.19 changes were a nerf to them and we were restoring a bit of power while skewing them a little towards crit as their items were too skewed towards non-crit
- AP is still a little too strong and crowding out Lucidity in particular; bringing down Sorcs as a result, because we think Lucidity is in a reasonable spot and don't want to buff it
Champions
- Will talk more about champions tomorrow
- A bunch of the changes this patch are for champions that we had to cut last patch
