3. Comment from Lead Design

  1. Blitzcrank: Want to make sure he fills his job at reliably catching and killing his target. Simple E damage buff.
  2. Briar: She’s extremely low-MMR skewed and it’s nice to even that out when convenient. Early game HP is an easy grant to a melee champ and affects high MMR more
  3. Fizz: We decided to bring his scaling back up as his itemization got a bit weaker. He’ll also like the roaming buffs described later.
  4. Irelia: This still makes her worse than most fighters vs. turrets but this makes her much better in side lane. We’ll monitor her power level.
  5. Katarina: Lowering her need to wait for later levels in order to reach high mobility. Also this R CD should give her a lot more laning power.
  6. Kayle: Bring up her late game carry potential, simple as that. She should be the best late game top carry on average.
  7. Rumble: No pro on this patch means no more pro jail. He already deals more than enough damage in early lane, so we choose durability for the low-mobility melee champion.
  8. Swain: Trying to mostly buff his base kit and provide both damage and durability since he should have both.
  9. Varus: BotRK nerfed him. Simple on-hit damage buffs.
  10. Vayne: Playing up damage that scales with crit chance to diversify builds a touch.
  11. Vel’Koz: Goving him more opportunities to act since he’s often low agency.
  12. Vi: Melee diver made tankier yes.
  13. Wukong: W is jungle skewed, mana is top skewed. Aiming for a relatively flat buff across roles and we generally don’t want him to have to max W second.
  14. Aatrox: mostly dominant in lower MMR so a fairly light touch that we hope is low MMR skewed via late game XP scaling.
  15. Anivia: Has had a super high win rate for a long time. Still generally lowering late game armor on squishies and mixing with some -damage to make it large enough.
  16. Corki: Hoping for mid-skewed nerfs via XP scaling. Mid uses Manamune 2x as often, so mana should be mid skewed too.
  17. Illaoi: Another very strong low-MMR champion. Just simple nerfs to make her a little more difficult and make space in her very strong laning phase.
  18. Jax: Looking to reduce burst damage specifically and leave more room for his sustained DPS to carry his output.
  19. Lillia: Another low-MMR skewed champion though she’s very performant everywhere. Making her high move speed riskier via late game armor nerf and slightly less camp healing.
  20. Mordekaiser: Similar to Lillia on performance. Lowering damage since he should be tanky as a juggernaut.
  21. Poppy: Still the #1 support and players finally know it. Base AD affects her first two items in support, less so in other roles. AS compensation should make this closer to neutral top/jg but not perfect.
  22. Seraphine: OP in Bot. Bot-skewed nerf that support shouldn’t feel too hard.
  23. Shen: Stronger than we think is fair. Want to keep his late-game tankiness and overall dueling, so peeling back some early safely and his ult shield, which has crept up a lot over time.
  24. Sylas: Simple nerf that should still have him want to build some HP in most slots.
  25. Syndra: Performing too well in general and has low counter play to a lot of damage. Just making her a bit less lethal.
  26. Udyr: Probably the strongest jungler in the game when R max. Q max is ok. Nerfs are jungle skewed and kept to only R damage, preserving his juggernaut tankiness
  27. Maokai: Meant to be win rate positive jungle/support without affecting top lane too much, as it’s already performant and low-gameplay. Rules simplification on E move speed and generic support/jungle-skewed buffs otherwise.
  28. K’Sante: Too good of a laner and a bit OP but we’re generally happy with how most of his changes have landed. For now directionally making All Out slightly better and weakening his early lane.
  29. Minions: This means that mid lane gets increasingly longer roam windows as the game goes on into midgame. Super early roaming will barely be affected but minute 8+ will be noticeable. We want to take a long look at 1v1 dynamics, too, but think this level of roaming is appropriate.
  30. Youmuu’s/Opportunity: This trade of stats is a buff in both cases. Most champions didn’t buy both and wanted either roaming or burst. Now each item is better at their intended purpose.
  31. Barrier: Crowded out other summoner options and hurt assassins. Light tap to help both cases.
  32. Shiv: A redesign to give ADCs less “random” chip damage while still being an early wave clear item. No more ARAM pentas.
  33. Yun Tal: Scaling first-slot AD-Crit item. It’s meant to be weaker than Collector/ER on purchase but outscale them as auto-crit champs fit that power curve.
  34. Smite: You can still smite “around” an epic to get it despite body-blocking. This tuning mitigates issues for players who smite the ground right after a Voidgrub dies, causing them to smite another one in the camp. Will now only happen if they’re packed close together.
