Leave a Comment


Summary

Holy changes Batman...there are a ton of updates this patch aimed primarily on making bot laners more diverse. Not only did they nerf Ashe this time around but almost half the other marksmen are receiving additional buffs to make sure we don't see Ashe every single game for Split 3. Check out this quick summary and full scope of changes below!



Buffs: Akali, Evelynn, Fiora, Hecarim, Jax, Jhin, Jinx, Lucian, Miss Fortune, Morgana, Neeko, Rakan, Skarner, Tristana, Veigar, Yasuo, Ziggs
Nerfs: Ashe, Bard, Karma, Karthus, Kha'Zix, Nautilus, Nocturne, Sett, Syndra, Volibear

Summoner's Rift Ranked Split 3 Begins!

On August 9th at 11:59 PM local time, the third and final ranked split of the season will begin, but with a little something extra this time! In addition to the usual split rewards, we'll also be granting a random series 1 Eternal capsule to anyone earning 750 Split points.

Champions

new

Yone

The Unforgotten

Yone wields his swords in 10.16!
High-res versions of Yone's splashes are available on League Displays!

Akali

Q base damage increased. E damage type changed.

Now that Akali’s been in the shadows of Pro, we can help her hit the (assassin's) mark for all levels of play by bringing up her early game damage. We’re also streamlining the damage type in her kit so that she’s able to itemize more effectively and deal more to enemies who aren’t building defensively.

Q - Five Point Strike

BASE DAMAGE 30/55/80/105/130  35/60/85/110/135

E - Shuriken Flip

DAMAGE TYPE Physical  Magic

Ashe

Q bonus attack speed decreased later.

We’re pulling back on a scaling Ashe buff we gave her in 10.8 to make more space for other marksmen with less early game power and utility to shine late game against her.

Q - Ranger’s Focus

BONUS ATTACK SPEED 20/30/40/50/60%  20/25/30/35/40%

Bard

Base health decreased. W maximum heal decreased.

Bard has been chiming in quite a bit, especially in Pro play, so we’re toning down his power in early game to open up more avenues for counter picks and in-lane pressure.

Base Stats

HEALTH 575  560

W - Caretaker’s Shrine

MAXIMUM HEAL 70/110/150/190/230  55/95/135/175/215

Evelynn

Q cooldown decreased; hitting a monster no longer refunds 50% of its cooldown.

Spiking some power into Eve’s Q so that she can bring her charm into the jungle and in early skirmishes. We’ve also found that her Q cooldown refund from monsters has been a source of confusion and annoyance for players, so we’re taking that out for more gameplay clarity.

Q - Hate Spike

COOLDOWN 8 seconds  4 seconds
removedNO MORE HATE Hitting a monster no longer refunds 50% of Hate Spike’s cooldown

Fiora

Q cooldown decreased; on-hit cooldown reduction decreased.

As we near the big games, we’ve identified a lack of scaling skirmishers who can keep pressure in a side lane. Because of this, we want to keep Fiora in tip-top form, and to be able to offer teams more strategy. We’re helping her strike quickly, strike deftly! in early fights, along with increasing her mobility for split pushing. To balance it out, we’re also lightly tapping down her cooldown refund.

Q - Lunge

COOLDOWN 16/14/12/10/8 seconds  13/11.25/9.5/7.75/6 seconds
ENEMY HIT COOLDOWN REDUCTION 60% (enemy hits refund 6.4/5.6/4.8/4/3.2 seconds)  50% (enemy hits refund 6.5/5.63/4.75/3.9/3 seconds)

Hecarim

E bonus movement speed increased over time.

The Horseman’s been at a trot, so we’re ponying up by boosting his potential for ganks and engage. Note that this added movement speed procs his passive for that sweet, sweet bonus damage.

E - Devastating Charge

BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED 25-75% (over the first 3 seconds, with fourth second at maximum value)  25-100% (over the first 3 seconds, with fourth second at maximum value)

Jax

E cooldown decreased.

Now, it’s Jax’s turn! Similar to Fiora, we’re hoping to bring the Grandmaster back onto the scene by making him a more viable counterpick... with more counterstrikes. With his E more readily available, he’ll be able to see fights through in a different manner.

E - Counterstrike

COOLDOWN 16/14/12/10/8 seconds  14/12.5/11/9.5/8 seconds

Jhin

Passive final shot critical damage against structures increased.

Jhin hasn’t been able to call the shots, especially around towers. We’re loosening his passive crit damage restriction from all the way back in 6.4 so that he can take down structures more effectively and keep up with peers with expanded abilities for damaging towers.

Passive - Whisper

FINAL SHOT DAMAGE TO STRUCTURES 1.2 total attack damage  1.5 total attack damage (now the same damage as a normal critical strike)

Jinx

R bonus damage now uncapped.

Fixed a bug in Jinx’s R where the damage cap against monsters was capped against champions instead, majorly impacting her power against enemies with high health. We’re bringing the super, the mega, and the death by uncapping the damage against all targets!

R - Super Mega Death Rocket!

BONUS DAMAGE CAP BUGFIX 375 for main target against champions  Now uncapped against all targets

Karma

Q cost now flat; cooldown increased.

Karma has continued to be a strong multi-role flex champion who tends to have too much control and safety, so we’re trimming down her solo lane agency by pulling back on a spell that she relies on for waveclear.

Q - Inner Flame

COST 50/55/60/65/70 mana  65 mana
COOLDOWN 7/6.5/6/5.5/5 seconds  9/8.5/8/7.5/7 seconds

Karthus

Q damage ratio decreased.

Now that we’re seeing an increase in Karthus players and higher win rates, we’re walking back one of the bigger buffs from 10.14 that’s lent him more strength than anticipated.

Q - Lay Waste

DAMAGE RATIO 0.35 ability power  0.3 ability power

Kha’Zix

Q isolated target bonus damage decreased.

The bug consumed, and the bug adapted. Over the course of the past few patches and our last buff, Kha’Zix has crept above the pack for our skilled players, so we're pulling slightly back on the same lever in 10.14 to find a happy middle ground.

Q - Taste Their Fear

ISOLATED TARGET BONUS DAMAGE 120%  110%

Lucian

Q damage increased. R total shots fired increased.

Lucian has been out of meta for a while, losing consistently to his more meta peers with longer ranges, even in beginning phases of the game. We’re putting him back on the path of vengeance by increasing his power.

Q - Piercing Light

DAMAGE 85/120/155/190/225  95/130/165/200/235

R - The Culling

TOTAL SHOTS FIRED 20/25/30  22/28/34

Miss Fortune

Base attack damage increased.

Pirate lady’s been in a misfortunate place, and she’s no fool. We’re giving her a small love tap to make sure she’s relevant as an early game marksman.

Base Stats

ATTACK DAMAGE 50  52

Morgana

Q cooldown decreased.

Bot lane has been awash with dive-heavy supports with strong CC, so we’re helping Morgana unshackle her potential as a promising counterpick.

Q - Dark Binding

COOLDOWN 11 seconds  10 seconds

Nautilus

W shield decreased.

Naut has been anchored as a persistent menace in Pro bot lanes, so we’re lowering his resilience to harass and the reliability of his early game all-ins.

W - Titan’s Wrath

SHIELD 60/70/80/90/100  45/55/65/75/85

Neeko

Q damage increased; bloom damage increased.

Giving Neeko some love in her trading and waveclear against other prominent mids. We think this will help her come into her own, you know, for her to really be herself and no one else.

Q - Blooming Burst

DAMAGE 70/115/160/205/250  80/125/170/215/260
BLOOM DAMAGE 35/55/75/95/115  40/60/80/100/120

Nocturne

Passive cooldown increased; enemy champions and monsters on-hit cooldown refund increased.

Nocturne is chopping down mid laners at an alarming rate in Average play. Trimming his pushing and sustain power, while letting him be at a similar power level in the jungle.

Passive - Umbral Blades

COOLDOWN 10 seconds  14 seconds
ON-HIT COOLDOWN REFUND Basic attacks against enemy champions and monsters reduce Umbra Blades' cooldown by 2 seconds  Basic attacks against enemy champions and monsters reduce Umbra Blades' cooldown by 3 seconds

Rakan

R bonus movement speed increased.

Rakan may have the moves, but he still needs to get a move on. We’re amping up the tempo so that he can beat down enemies as one of the premier engage support champions.

R - The Quickness

BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED 50%  75%

Sett

W base damage decreased later. E base damage decreased later.

Reeling back Sett players who rely on his base values with very tanky builds to plow their way through games.

W - Haymaker

BASE DAMAGE 80/105/130/155/180  80/100/120/140/160

E - Facebreaker

BASE DAMAGE 50/80/110/140/170  50/70/90/110/130

Skarner

Q total damage ratio increased; cost decreased.

Even with our last round of buffs in 10.15, Skarner still feels like he’s in hibernation with his kin. We’re doing another pass to put a bit more sting in his...stinger?

Q - Crystal Slash

TOTAL DAMAGE RATIO 0.15 attack damage  0.20 attack damage
COST 15 mana  10 mana

Syndra

Q base damage decreased later.

We’re continuing to sharpen Syndra’s power as she remains as a dominant pick in Pro play. This time, we’re honing in on her oppressive command in lane, especially from early to mid game.

Q - Dark Sphere

BASE DAMAGE 70/110/150/190/230  70/105/140/175/210

Tristana

E now deals 1% increased damage per 3% critical strike chance.

Tristana has been fairly irrelevant since the nerfs to her early game attack range—except for in mid lane, where she’s still able to bully out certain champs. We’re gunning for her to be a viable marksman by buffing her bot lane crit build.

E - Explosive Charge

newHERE COMES THE BOOM Explosive Charge now deals 1% increased damage per 3% critical strike chance (up to 33.3% increased damage)

Veigar

Base magic resist increased.

Boosting up this tiny yordle to better master the mid lane. To do this, we’re giving him more MR, since he’s already quite powerful in bot lane.

Base Stats

MAGIC RESIST 30  32

Volibear

Q bonus movement speed decreased.

Volibear is a rare beast that is relentlessly bringing the storm for our Average and Pro players. Reducing his mobility and scaling into late game.

Q - Thundering Smash

BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED 15/20/25/30/35%  10/14/18/22/26% (still doubles when moving towards visible enemy champions)

Yasuo

Base magic resist increased. R base damage increased later.

Carefully buffing Yasuo to target mid lane and Pro play. Like Veigar, we’re giving him more breathing room in mid, where there’s the most magic damage dealers. We’re also boosting his ult output for coordinated teams to play off of.

Base Stats

MAGIC RESIST 30  32

R - Last Breath

BASE DAMAGE 200/300/400  200/350/500

Ziggs

Passive bonus damage ratio now flat; maximum damage to structures increased.

Bumping up this bombing bud to better bonk down buildings and, more importantly, to bring an artillery mage into the meta.

Passive - Short Fuse

BONUS DAMAGE RATIO 0.3/0.4/0.5 ability power (levels 1/7/13)  0.5 ability power
BONUS DAMAGE MULTIPLIER TO STRUCTURES 2x ability power  2.5x ability power

Runes

Nimbus Cloak


Nimbus Cloak has become the go-to for both jungle and AD as a consistent offensive and defensive tool. We’re lowering some of its overall strength, specifically in consideration of Smite and Hexflash, so that it’s not as ubiquitous of a choice.
BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED 15%/25%/35% (summoner spell cooldown 0/100/250 seconds)  10%/20%/30% (summoner spell cooldown 0/100/250 seconds)
