Introduction
Pre-season is here! The busiest time of year for Nerfplz, and the time when I simultaneously get all starry eyed at all the awesome material and also start pulling my hair out from all the content I'm behind on creating...
Summary
Many changes. Many, many changes. See below for...changes.Patch 7.22
Hey team, Safelocked here. I'm the Lead Gameplay Producer, aka the Gameplay version of Lead Producer Joe "Audible Chocolate" New001, and before you dive into one of LoL’s biggest patch notes to date, I want to take a moment to recap this year. Side note: If you landed here looking for more Runes Reforged information, click here.
Let’s start with class updates. Last preseason, we updated Assassins as a continuation of these (i.e. Juggernauts, Marksmen, Mages), and in midseason, we updated Tanks. After seeing the mixed impact of class updates though, we decided to move away from this approach to push individual champions further in bigger and more targeted ways. We went big with Warwick’s blood hunting, Galio’s colossal impact, Urgot’s infamous shotgun knees, and Eve’s charming mind games.
We went more targeted with ability updates: smaller scale changes on champions that might’ve worked a few years ago but now needed some extra love to better define their space within LoL. There were a bunch of them starting with Alistar stampeding his way, to giving Rek'Sai more teeth, to more recently bringing Azir's groove back and modernizing Xin Zhao.
We also welcomed new champions: Xayah and Rakan as the ultimate power-couple; Kayn, the wall-walking shadow reaper; Ornn, your resident blacksmith demigod—and we have one more bubbling up soon.
Supports got a few more legendary item options like Redemption and Knight’s Vow, and Rift Herald’s evolved to become a meaningful strategic objective on Summoner’s Rift.
Now it’s finally preseason, and we’re ready to introduce some big changes we've been working on. We’re combining runes and masteries into one new system that lets you customize your playstyle, streamlines your choices, and is free for everyone so we’re all on the same playing field. Additionally, you’ll be able to progress beyond level 30 and get more satisfying rewards that level up with you.
We've been talking about preseason changes for about six months now, and if you haven't heard about them just yet: They’ll look crazy. They might actually be crazy too—it's preseason, after all! We’re looking to discover with you, outplay each other, and learn again. We’re in our most ambitious preseason yet, and we're excited to chart this unknown territory together.
See you on the Rift,
Safelocked

Champions
Our old rune system gave champions a lot of raw base stats, and especially early game those stats heavily impact the feeling of basic actions, like last-hitting and jungle clears. We want a lot of the instincts players have about the game to remain consistent, so we're pumping a lot of base stats directly back into the champions themselves. For the most part, this means Health, Armor, or Attack Damage, but we've also taken this opportunity to introduce a new stat into the game: bonus Attack Speed at level 1.

Items
Coin line, Spellthief's Edge line, and Targon's Shield line
Similar to the base stat adjustments, we also want to make sure that supports have the ability to spec into Bandit. To make it less of a direct rune tradeoff, we're pushing that passive into support items.
HEY!All support starting items now have Bandit as a passive effect
Targon's Shield Line
The new runes have given many ranged supports much higher poke damage in the early game, making it more punishable for Tanks to cash their Spoils of War stacks. We're giving the heal on Targon's a small bump to ensure they still have ways to secure their gold.

Experience
Takedown Experience
When we implemented the team-catchup experience, we'd intended it as a mechanic to keep supports relevant in levels, but the impact has largely been to snowball teams which are already ahead.
[REMOVED] NO LONGER RELEVANTEarning a kill or assist while below your team’s average level no longer grants bonus experience
Jungle XP
Comeback jungle experience is important in ensuring that an early game deficit isn't too hard to come back from, but at the moment it's creating some weird patterns. First, it's just too much overall, so we're cutting the total amount significantly. Second, linking it to little monsters has made one side of the map (Raptors and Krugs) disproportionately important to secure. Putting the bonus experience on the large monsters instead balances the sides out, while also making it more rewarding to counter-jungle.
We're also taking this moment to standardize jungle cs indicators. Because camps had wildly different numbers of monsters in them, cs becomes a pretty poor marker of gold. Is the enemy jungler outfarming you or have they just taken Krugs and Raptors twice? With this change it should be easier to ballpark a jungler's strength/lead from comparative cs.
COMEBACK EXPERIENCE30 XP per level behind on any monster ⇒ 50 XP per level behind only on Large or Epic Monsters
[REMOVED]First clear experience reduction no longer applies to Wolf camp or small Razorbeaks
DINGYou'll now be able to reach level 2 by starting at the Wolf camp
GROMP FIRST CLEAR EXPERIENCE REDUCTION25% ⇒ 50%
RED BRAMBLEBACK200 experience ⇒ 180 experience
BLUE SENTINEL200 experience ⇒ 180 experience
TRACKINGAll camps are now worth 4 monsters (e.g. Gromp = 4 monsters, Little Razorbeaks are 0.4 monsters)
Extra damage to minions
With the removal of masteries that brought a bit of PvE damage to the table, we wanted to ensure that champions didn't feel overly weak against lane minions. We will be continuing to evaluate the power of this as we see adjustments to Runes and champion changes.
IT HURTSBasic attacks deal 5 bonus damage to lane minions
Minion, Monsters, and Ambient Gold (and things related to it)
There's a lot of waiting around at the start of the game, and even with invades, there's still some downtime. We're trying to reduce the idle time, so you'll see things like Bard Chimes, Skarner's Crystals, and Smite Cooldown being enabled a little bit quicker. To compensate those 10 seconds, the Homestart effect is also a tad stronger
GAME START TIME1 minute and 20 seconds ⇒ 1 minute and 10 seconds
SUPPAH FASTHomestart effect when the game starts is stronger now
Champ Select
We're temporarily adding 15 seconds to the "Select Loudout" part of champion select to give people more time to pick their Runes.
Uncapped Leveling
The level 30 level cap has been removed, and the new cap is… infinity!
Instead of getting IP after every game, you'll receive a capsule each time you level up. Capsules almost always contain champion shards. Exceptions to this will be on certain milestone levels such as 50, 75, 100, etc, where you can get extra goodies. When these levels are reached, you'll get exclusive rewards to show off your status in-game. These rewards include a special high-level ward skin, milestone emotes which you can upgrade using blue essence, and at very high milestone levels, maybe even a gemstone.
IP turns into Blue Essence
We're connecting the leveling and loot systems by merging IP and blue essence. The newer, bluer essence will work in all the places IP and BE worked before, including loot and the champion store. Everything in the store will cost the same as it did in the old, IP-based system—for example, a newer champ like Kayn will be 6300 BE.
Level 1 through 30
We’re shortening the time it takes to get to level 30. For more info on changes to leveling, check out the preseason FAQ
Changes to boosts
IP boosts are being removed from the store. XP boosts will still be available. Any active IP boosts will get automatically converted to XP boosts.
With rewards being tied to leveling up, XP boosts helps increasing the speed you unlock content (you'll level faster, thus earn capsules faster). To reflect this, we’ll be increasing the price of XP boosts to be closer to the value of an IP boosts. Check out the new price table in the FAQ.
Rotating Game Mode
Claim the incredible power of Ascension to conquer the Crystal Scar of Shurima. Ascension is now live from 11/10/17 at 12:00 p.m. PT - 11/14/17 at 04:00 a.m. PT and 11/17/17 at 12:00 p.m. PT - 11/21/17 at 04:00 a.m. PT.
TL;DR:
- Go 5v5 to claim the incredible power of Ascension by taking down Ancient Ascendant Xerath. Use Ascension to conquer the Crystal Scar of Shurima.
- First team to reach 200 points wins. Score:
- 1 point for champion kills.
- 3 points for capturing a Shuriman relic.
- 5 points for landing the killing blow on an Ascended champion.
- 2 points for each kill you acquire while Ascended.
Go forth. Conquer. Ascend.
Ascension Changelist
You can now use Enhanced Recall from anywhere on the map while in the play space
NO HEALSFountain healing is still disabled.
I JUST DIED FOR THATThis change enables you to shop and buy items during the game, without having to die to do it.
Runes Reforged is now available on Ascension
You can customize and select your runes, however we have swapped out some of the runes that are not compatible with Ascension by default; if you have these particular runes in your page, they will be automatically swapped for you once in game
Waterwalking
Waterwalking gives you movement speed while walking in the River, which wasn’t useful in the desert. Waterwalking will become Scorch, which allows your next ability to set the champion on fire, dealing damage.
Zombie Ward
Zombie Ward spawns a new, allied ward wherever you kill an enemy ward (or a new allied ward when your allied wards expire); however, there are no wards in Ascension… so, we’re testing out Ghost Poro. Ghost Poro allows you to summon a poro after entering a brush. The poro will stay behind and give you vision until you summon a new one, or until an enemy scares it away.
If Ghost Poro doesn’t happen, we’ll be swapping Zombie Ward out for something more useful regardless.
Minion Dematerializer
Minion Dematerializer lets you kill and absorb lane minions… if you had any! So you'll be getting Future’s Market instead. Future's Market lets you enter debt to the shopkeeper to buy items. Careful with those interest rates!
Kleptopmancy
Kleptomancy lets you auto attack champions and get gold and potentially consumables. However, since we balance gold and disable consumables in Ascension, we’ve disabled this rune as well. You'll be getting Glacial Augment, which gives your auto attacks a slow effect on champions. If you slow them with an active item, it’ll freeze the ground around them for five seconds.
Demolish
Demolish allows you to make powerful attacks against turrets. The only turret that exists in Ascension is Azir’s, when Xerath is de-spawned, so we’ve disabled this rune.The one you'll be getting instead is Font of Life, which allows you to mark an enemy when you have impaired their movement. Allied champions will heal when they attack marked enemies.
Overgrowth
Overgrowth increases your maximum HP for monsters and minions dying near you, but there are no monsters or minions in Ascension. There's always Second Wind though, which allows you to heal for some amount of your missing HP after being hit by an enemy champion.
