Official Patch 11.21 Notes Released!

Leave a Comment


Hello there!

Hey everyone, sorry I haven't been posting lately, been very sick but getting better. Planning on posting again this week, thanks for being patient!

Nerfs: Akshan, Graves, Karthus, Miss Fortune, Quinn
Buffs: Jinx, Lux, Sion, Teemo, Viego, Xayah

Disabling /All Chat

Starting this patch, /all chat will be disabled in matchmade queues in a few regions. Since our original announcement, response has varied between regions, so we're shifting our approach and only disabling /all chat where players were most receptive to trying it out.

This test will last for 11.21 and 11.22. In regions where the disable rolls out, /all chat will still be available in custom games, and no other tools are being disabled. We'll evaluate the impact of this change through verbal abuse reports, penalty rates, surveys, and direct feedback. When the test ends, we may leave /all chat disabled, make changes to the disable, or turn it back on, on a per-region basis. We may also make adjustments during the test itself based on initial results.

Champions

Akshan

E damage decreased.

Akshan's been steadily creeping up since swinging into release. We're tapping down on his signature move's damage to make the choice between maxing Q or E first a bit more strategic.

E - Heroic Swing

Base Damage per Shot 30/50/70/90/110 ⇒ 30/45/60/75/90

Graves

E bonus armor decreased.

Graves' defensive dueling power makes his laning a little too consistent in some early matchups. We're reducing his burliness to give his opponents a chance to outplay the outlaw.

E - Quickdraw

Bonus Armor per Stack: 6/9/12/15/18  4/7/10/13/16

Jinx

Passive attack speed increased. E range increased. R cooldown decreased.

Jinx is craving some excitement, so we're boosting her passive to make her pop-off moments really pop and letting her wreak more havoc across the map with her ult. Flame Chompers' range is also getting a slight increase to work better with Fishbones' basic attacks. Everybody, panic!

Passive - Get Excited!

Total Attack Speed 15% ⇒ 25%

E - Flame Chompers!

Range 900 ⇒ 925

R - Super Mega Death Rocket!

Cooldown 90/75/60 seconds ⇒ 75/65/55 seconds

Karthus

E mana restore reduced early and scales more with rank.

Karthus bot gets almost infinite wave control in early game thanks to his E passive. Pretty spooky. We're trimming down his mana early to target his performance in lane without affecting his jungle.

E - Defile

Mana Restored 20/27/34/41/48 ⇒ 15/25/35/45/55

Lux

Base attack speed per level increased. Passive mark duration adjusted. E damage increased. R cooldown decreased.

Despite increasing her E damage in 11.10, Lux still isn't shining so bright in either mid or support. We're taking this opportunity to buff her a bit while also making her passive more reliable.

Base Stats

Attack Speed per Level 1% ⇒ 2%

Passive - Illumination

updatedLET'S LIGHT IT UP Illumination mark duration extended if Lux's basic attack is already in flight to the target, or if R - Final Spark is being cast

E - Lucent Singularity

Damage 60/110/160/210/260 (+65% AP) ⇒ 70/120/170/220/270 (+70% AP)

R - Final Spark

Cooldown 80/60/40 seconds ⇒ 60/50/40 seconds

Miss Fortune

Base mana reduced. W mana cost increased.

Miss Fortune has been popular at every level of play, including at Worlds. We want to preserve the flexibility between her lethality and crit builds, so we're nerfing her in a way that forces her to pick her early shots more wisely.

Base Stats

Mana 325.84 ⇒ 300

W - Strut

Mana Cost 30 ⇒ 45

Quinn

W bonus attack speed decreased late.

Quinn's been flying high above her competition in top lane. We're dropping her to a lower elevation so that her enemies can stand a chance against her in duels.

W - Heightened Senses

Bonus Attack Speed 20/35/50/65/80% ⇒ 20/30/40/50/60%

Sion

W shield increased.

Our most recent buffs to Sion's shield in 11.19 were clearly not strong enough for the juggernaut, so... Here he is again!

W - Soul Furnace

Shield 60/85/110/135/160 (+40% AP) (+8/9/10/11/12% maximum health) ⇒ 60/85/110/135/160 (+40% AP) (+10/11/12/13/14% maximum health)

Teemo

Q cooldown decreased; blind duration increased; missile speed increased.

Captain Teemo's fallen behind in the top lane ranks. We're putting a little more anti-basic attack poison in the friendly yordle's dart to make him more annoying powerful in lane.

Q - Blinding Dart

Cooldown 8 seconds ⇒ 7 seconds
Blind Duration 1.5/1.75/2.0/2.25/2.5 seconds ⇒ 2.0/2.25/2.5/2.75/3 seconds
Missile Speed 1500 ⇒ 2500

Viego

Q damage ratio increased. W self-slow decreased. R crit ratio increased.

The last set of Viego nerfs did the job and prevented him from dominating at Worlds, but it hit him a little too hard at all levels of play. We're buffing him slightly with an emphasis on his crit builds rather than bringing back some of his tankiness.

Q - Blade of the Ruined King

AD Ratio 60% ⇒ 70%

W - Spectral Maw

Self-Slow While Charging 15% ⇒ 10%

R - Heartbreaker

Critical Strike Chance Ratio 75% ⇒ 100%

Xayah

Base move speed increased. Q cooldown decreased late.

We've carefully buffed Xayah quite a few times this season to help her non-Pro performance, but she's still pretty weak across the board. Her damage is already pretty sharp, so we're buffing her ability to set her feathers up.

Base Stats

Move Speed 325 ⇒ 330

Q - Double Daggers

Cooldown 10/9/8/7/6 seconds ⇒ 10/8.5/7/5.5/4 seconds

Items

Goredrinker

At its core, Goredrinker is supposed to be a sustain Mythic that lets fighters outlast their enemies with well-timed Thirsting Slashes. While wanting to sustain through a fight isn't unique to fighters, it's a big part of their class identity: They have the best tools to stay on the offensive at low health (ex. the dream Illaoi ult that lets her turn a 1v5). At the same time, this is a risky niche to fill: Two of our bigger rough patches since the item update have been damage and healing, and Goredrinker offers both.

We've seen this risk play out over the course of the season, with Goredrinker becoming the dominant Mythic pick for fighters due to offering the best sustain without making sufficient tradeoffs on the damage front. As further evidence,assassins have been taking Goredrinker over their own Mythics. Assassins are designed to kill quickly, so they shouldn't be valuing an item that indexes so much into sustain and strength at low health. Between its 1.0 AD ratio and its heal, Goredrinker's active is just too valuable as another button in assassin combos that also lets them shrug off any damage they take while eviscerating their target.

In order to move Goredrinker back into its sustain niche, we're removing its low-health bonus AD (to nerf damage for fighters) and weakening Thirsting Slash's AD scaling (to nerf damage for assassins). At the same time, we don't want Goredrinker to become a bad pick for fighters, so we're giving it omnivamp to make sure it still lives up to its identity as their sustain Mythic.
Thirsting Slash 100% Total AD ⇒ 175% Base AD
newOmnivamp Goredrinker now grants 8% Omnivamp
removedHealth Regeneration Goredrinker no longer grants 150% health regen
removedSpite No longer grants 0-15% (based on missing health) of your AD as bonus AD

Ceaseless Hunger (Ornn Item)

Thirsting Slash 100% Total AD ⇒ 175% Base AD
newOmnivamp Ceaseless Hunger now grants 13% Omnivamp
removedHealth Regeneration Ceaseless Hunger no longer grants 250% health regen
removedSpite No longer grants 0-15% (based on missing health) of your AD as bonus AD

Ironspike Whip

We’re adjusting Ironspike Whip's active to match Goredrinker's reduced offensive capabilities.
Crescent 75% Total AD ⇒ 100% Base AD

Stridebreaker

We’re also adjusting Stridebreaker's active to match the damage changes to Goredrinker and Ironspike Whip, but it's also getting an AD boost to compensate since it doesn't need a nerf right now.
Attack Damage 45 ⇒ 50
Halting Slash 100% Total AD ⇒ 175% Base AD

Dreamshatter (Ornn Item)

Attack Damage 55 ⇒ 60
Halting Slash 100% Total AD ⇒ 175% Base AD

Runes

Conqueror

We're seeing a broad range of champions pick Conqueror even in situations that don't match its purpose: extended all-ins. We're honing in on that identity and giving it a nerf.
Adaptive Force per Stack 2-5 (based on level) ⇒ 2-4 (based on level)
Buff Duration 6 seconds ⇒ 4 seconds

Guardian

Guardian's been overperforming in the support role and crowding out other keystones, so we're tuning it down.
Shield 70-150 (based on level) (+15% Guardian's AP) (+9% Guardian's bonus health) ⇒ 50-130 (based on level) (+15% Guardian's AP) (+9% Guardian's bonus health)

Health Shard

The health shard is a niche stat that doesn't get a lot of love right now. It's generally useful when you don't expect much of a threat in lane (since armor or magic resist shards would be more useful against specific matchups). It's not getting picked much even in these cases, so we're upping its numbers to make it more desirable.
Bonus Health 15-90 (based on level)  15-140 (based on level)

Ingenious Hunter

At the beginning of the season, we updated Ingenious Hunter to work not only on item actives and trinkets, but also on item passives like Guardian Angel and Sterak's Gage. It was slightly nerfed to compensate and has been weak ever since, so we're giving it a buff to compete with the other Hunter options.
Base Item Haste 10 ⇒ 20
Item Haste per Stack 5 ⇒ 6
Max Item Haste at Full Stacks 35 ⇒ 50

Ravenous Hunter

Ravenous Hunter is one of the most popular minor runes in the game. It's crowding out other choices, especially in bot lane, so we're nerfing it a bit.
Omnivamp per Stack 1.5% ⇒ 1.2%
Max Omnivamp at Full Stacks 7.5% ⇒ 6%
