Hi everyone and welcome to the latest update for Patch 8.15. This time around, we're seeing marksmen slowly coming back into dominance, but a few bot lane stragglers like Yasuo and Swain are sticking around. Meanwhile, nerfs on Morgana and Fiddlesticks are paving the way for old favorites to resurface into their prior dominance, and Graves continues to decimate everyone else in the jungle.
Welcome to the Akali patch, where everyone's playing her, but isn't quite sure what to do with her. Meanwhile, Fizz is back on top after a few buffs from Riot; can't keep a continuously pumped fish down!
Welcome to Patch 8.15! We're seeing a lot of trends hold true here, and Zed is performing considerably better at every division except Diamond. Meanwhile, as you'd expect, Morgana and Fiddlesticks are falling into the meh ban territory at multiple tiers ever since their nerf.
Tryndamere's always been somewhat of a niche pick for split-pushers, but always quite good for solo queue if you choose to play him. His ability to turn around 1v1s is notoriously annoying, and his sustain in lane can be obnoxious.
I bet you guys weren't expecting a strongest when mastered update today were you? Well, to be honest, I wasn't either. But in a massive burst of inspiration and 2 hours, we've put together a long overdue update to the Strongest Champions When Mastered series for your viewing pleasure.
Nerfs this patch are outnumbered by buffs, but it just so happens that the nerfs are on some of the key figures of the meta from last patch. As a result of Talon and Zoe nerfs coupled with a Fizz tweak that turned out to be a nerf, mid lane is shuffling around quite a bit.
After a brief few patches where nobody understand what was happening bot lane, we're seeing a shift back to more traditional picks. Marksmen bot are the "new" flavor of the month, and some of the old sustain supports are coming back as well.
