Official Patch 12.1 Notes Released!

Leave a Comment


New Season New Patch!

New ranked borders are out for Season 12 and they look FANCY! Check out the details below along with a small handful of nerfs and buffs!

Champions

Diana

Passive AP ratio and monster damage ratio increased.

Many have come to enjoy Diana jungle since our changes earlier this year, even while she's been distinctly underpowered. We're putting some power back into that role while giving her a bit of a buff that she can also use in mid.

Passive - Moonsilver Blade

AP Ratio 40%  50%
Monster Damage Ratio 250%  300%

Gangplank

Q mana cost and cooldown reduced.

Gangplank's Parrrley is not as powerrrful in lane after Grasp was nerfed on him, so we're letting him use it morrre often.

Q - Parrrley

Mana Cost 60/55/50/45/40  55/50/45/40/35
Cooldown 5 seconds  4.5 seconds

Rek'Sai

Unburrowed E base damage adjusted. Burrowed E cooldown increased late.

Rek'Sai is a bit too strong in skilled play, especially when she maxes E first. We're targeting exactly that while leaving her normal Q max builds relatively unchanged. (As a reminder, E - Furious Bite's damage gets doubled and converted to true damage at maximum Fury stacks.)

E - Furious Bite

Physical Damage 50/60/70/80/90 (+85% bonus AD)  55/60/65/70/75 (+85% bonus AD)

E - Tunnel

Cooldown 26/23/20/17/14 seconds  26/24/22/20/18 seconds

Sona

Armor growth reduced. E cooldown increased.

Sona's been overperforming in skilled play and pushing the limit in other brackets ever since Archangel's Staff was changed in preseason. We're tapping down on her power by slightly reducing her durability and ability cast frequency.

Base Stats

Armor Growth 3.3  3

E - Song of Celerity

Cooldown 12 seconds  14 seconds

Items

Eclipse

Despite being weak overall, Eclipse was the strongest lethality Mythic before preseason. We overdid its buffs a bit in 11.23, so we're partially reverting those. (This change also applies to its Ornn Masterwork item, Syzygy.)
Ever Rising Moon Cooldown (Melee) 6 seconds  8 seconds

Force of Nature

Force of Nature's payout was a bit too hard to reach due to the stack duration. It's also been a bit weaker than its counterpart, Spirit Visage, so, naturally, we’re adding more force to make it the heavy magic resist item.
Absorb Stack Duration 5 seconds  7 seconds
Dissipate Magic Damage Reduction 20%  25%

Immortal Shieldbow

Immortal Shieldbow has made some marksmen and fighters a bit too, um, immortal. We're bringing it down a bit so that there are larger tradeoffs to consider when comparing it to other marksman Mythics. (Its Ornn Masterwork Item, Bloodward, will now have 65 AD and the same changes to Lifeline.)
Attack Damage 55  50
Lifeline Shield 300-800 (based on level)  275-650 (based on level)

Wit's End

Wit's End has been powerful as an early defensive and offensive option for attack speed champions. However, considering its threat as a DPS item, its build path and stats counter magic damage a bit too much, too early.
Build Path Hearthbound Axe + Negatron Cloak + Long Sword + 750 gold  Hearthbound Axe + Null-Magic Mantle + Pickaxe + 675 gold (total cost unchanged)
Magic Resist 50  40

Summoner Spells

Teleport

While League of Legends is indeed a team game, it generally evolves in phases—as the game progresses, you interact with your team more. Lane phase lets you flex your individual skills, but it also needs some outside influence to keep things from getting too predictable. However, right now, there’s too much disruption happening too early and too often. This is especially the case with frequent Teleport fights in bot lane. And this isn't bad for bot laners only; top and mid players also lose out on the ability to express their laning skills in the same way. Currently, it often feels like bot lane gets decided by outside influence, and mid and top get decided by the influence they have on bot lane (rather than on how well they play their own lane).

Teleport also tends to crowd out other summoner spells because, when wielded properly, it flexibly offers both safety and a high level of game influence. Today, you can use it to quickly get back to your own lane and farm, but you can also use it to intervene in other lanes. In an effort to bring back some balance, we're reshaping the spell by tempering its offensive capabilities early, and then upgrading it later on to retain its exciting mid-to-late game impact.
updatedTeleport Cooldown 420-210 seconds (based on level)  360 seconds at all levels
newUnleashed Teleport Teleport can only be used on allied towers. Once tower plating falls at 14 minutes, Teleport transforms into Unleashed Teleport, which can target allied towers, minions, wards, and certain allied constructs (same as Season 2021 Teleport)
newUnleashed Teleport Cooldown 240 seconds
