Hey all!  We're replacing Sanguine Blade with Hullbreaker, a broader item that'll be tempting for AD splitpushers.  It's going to ship 11.13 and you should see it on PBE tomorrow. As always we're glad to hear any feedback on the item! Shoutout to @srrafles with the great VFX!

12.8 with all the content! We've pulled a few things from this patch either for more time or after reconsiderations. Pretty fun patch I'd say! Numbers are definitely subject to further change Also remember 12.8 is the MSI patch so no more changes coming for the pro game there

Hey all! Patch preview for 12.10, the champ durability update. More context in followup tweets and the patch notes themselves. The TLDR is this is a pretty disruptive patch and we'll be watching closely and ready to react. I'd love to know what y'all think about this patch! 1/5

Since @RiotPhroxzon is out this week I've got your patch update! For champions we're still mostly looking at soloq outliers as we head toward season start (10th). We're also buffing up a number of underpowered items and adjusting Jak'Sho to make it less valuable on fighters.

Patch Preview time! Because I know y'all will be curious: We're buffing the wind brothers because they suffered substantially from the Shieldbow changes and dropped to around 47.5% winrate each, a fair bit lower than intended and lower than the other Shieldbow bound champs.

Patch 11.22 Preview! Goredrinker nerfs overshot a bit so we're adding a tad more power back into it. Riven and Red Kayn were hit unusually hard by the Gore nerfs and we don't expect them to recoup much power with these Gore buffs alone.

A big patch now that things have had time to settle. Buffs are focused at champs that have itemization earflicks (eg. Kaisa evolves), champs that have been languishing (Sivir, Ryze, Nasus, etc.) Nerfs to Pro staples and soloq overperformers. Ivern looks strong, but no nerfs.

No patch preview today since 11.23 will be just preseason content. Preseason throws the meta so up in the air that doing smaller balance changes to a individual champion or whatever isn't really worth it. We'll be touching outliers and following up on preseason in 11.24 though!

We've heard your feedback on Irelia from PBE and the earlier post. There's a balancing act between counterplay and satisfaction and this swung too far, so we're reverting the lockout on casting E mid-Q. This should be in the next PBE deploy.

When a light fighter can act as a pseudo-frontliner AND kill you they can be kinda messed up. They're low-risk high-reward, able to kill you without risking death themselves. On the flip side, Juggernauts should feel like tanky, slow meatballs of death. 2/3

Lots of changes for champions this patch, our tools are a lot more stable, so we should be back to normal now! The theme of this patch is balancing ranged vs melee supp in bot lane, balancing optimal jungle pathing, addressing early snowballing & flattening some healing

These different kinds of fighters should feel pretty different to face, and shouldn't share all of their items else they start to homogenize together to the benefit of neither class. Again, we'll be watching closely and almost surely following up over the next few patches. 3/3

@rememberwelived We're testing a few different tactics for Rengar, nothing I can talk about just yet though

Meet Tim! He'll also be tweeting out patch notes from time to time. Should still see these Monday/Tuesday of the off-patch week on a normal schedule (though sometimes our schedules get wack)

12.7 Patch Preview! I'll be your guide this week (Phlox is occupied finding a vtuber duo) As we ramp up to MSI, this patch focuses on shaking up the meta's dominant picks and adding some new ones that we haven't seen.

Why are we nerfing all your healing? Well, the worth of every point of healing/shielding is just strictly up with all the resists you're getting. This is doubly true with Grevious Wounds getting nerfed. 4/5

Changelists are still subject to change. All of the champion adjustment lists are pretty lengthy, but some of the notable changes are listed here. We're holding off on doing significant item or burst champion changes until after the durability update patch (12.10)

Pillow gifting meta. This is definitely a way to ask for League changes

Wide sweeping changes like this just aren't predictable enough for us to know which specific champ will be OP and by how much before release. It's gonna be a fun time figuring out new builds and counters and all that though. 3/5

Patches from now on should be back to pretty much normal cadence since the holidays are over and we're all back at work (except me, my flight got canceled by snow ❄😔❄)

Honing in on changelists for Patch 12.14. We're pulling the Teleport changes and are focusing on stability for the rest of the season. Expect smaller patches as we head towards the end of the year (outside of World's patch). Healing and Pro Play lists are in earlier posts.

Big patch! To explain the experience changes a tiny bit more, you get ~~30-40% less experience from kills against someone the same level as you from 1-9. You don't get any catchup xp from killing someone a level ahead of you (only evens out around 4 lvls behind them)

Additional context for a few more complicated changes; Azir is moving power out of early lane and into E/R, Riven changes make her better at splitpushing, pulled some of the sustain changes for next patch & nerfs to snowballing of XP and an adjustment to Supp melee vs range
