The latest patch for League of Legends, version 13.11, brings a host of changes to champions and items alike. This article breaks down the significant updates that will significantly affect gameplay.
Champion Changes
Rell
Rell receives several substantial tweaks in this patch with adjustments to her base stats and abilities. Her passive, Q, W, and E abilities have been altered which likely changes her playstyle drastically.
Akali
Akali's Q base damage has been increased, providing more burst potential in skirmishes or teamfights.
Amumu
Amumu sees his W damage reduced in this patch - a change that affects his overall DPS and jungle clear speed negatively.
Aphelios
Aphelios' passive bonus AD has been decreased making him less potent in trades or all-ins at every stage of the game.
Aurelion Sol
Changes to Aurelion Sol include an increase in E mana cost and a decrease in magic damage AP ratio which may hinder his roaming ability considerably.
Item Changes
Items have not escaped the developers' attention either as several key items see adjustments too:
Ardent Censer
This item’s bonus attack speed has been decreased thereby reducing its effectiveness on attack-speed based champions like ADCs or certain bruisers/junglers.
Duskblade of Draktharr
Duskblade sees its Nightstalker bonus ability damage increased potentially buffing assassins who rely heavily on their abilities for burst damage.
New Features: Buff Sharing
One notable new feature introduced is 'buff wisps' allowing junglers to share buffs with allies - a strategic element that could change how games are played significantly at higher levels of play particularly competitive esports scenarios where coordinated teams can leverage shared buffs optimally.
ARAM Adjustments & Clash Updates
ARAM players aren't left out as Riot introduces various buffs and nerfs specific to champions within ARAM mode. Additionally, details about the upcoming Clash tournament - Bandle City Cup were announced potentially exciting those who enjoy competitive LoL gameplay outside Ranked Solo/Duo queue.
Quality Of Life Improvements And Bug Fixes
As with any patch notes update from Riot Games, numerous bug fixes targeting both general gameplay issues as well as specific skin-related bugs have also been implemented ensuring smoother gameplay experiences across the board.
Upcoming Skins & Chromas
Last but certainly not least are new skins: DRX Aatrox, Akali, Ashe, Caitlyn, Kindred and Maokai get new looks along with corresponding chromas including an exclusive Prestige skin for DRX Aatrox fans!
