Patch 10.23

Overview

Patch 10.23

It's that time again! It's preseason, baby, and this year, we're moving and shaking with huge item changes from the Item Shop you open up every game to updates for some of your favorites to an all-new tier of majestic Mythic items. As usual, we'll be closely monitoring all the balance metrics we've outlined earlier this year and see how these changes affect the overall meta for veterans. Additionally, a huge goal of ours with this Item rework was to help the system feel a lot more intuitive for all players (both old and new), so let us know your thoughts!

Patch Highlights[]

Battlecast Nasus, Battlecast Zac, Resistance Jayce, Resistance Singed, and Resistance Yorick will be available on November 12, 2020.

New Item Shop[]

The Item Shop refresh was designed with a few different goals. We wanted to create a streamlined, data-based Recommended Items experience, Improve the usability of the All Items view, maintain the ability to use and import item sets, and update the visual look and feel to match League’s evolving aesthetic.

As always, we'll be keeping our ears to the ground and will continue working with you all to make the item shop the best it can be.

Recommended Items

The Recommended Items page displays relevant items for your champion based on where you currently are in your build, who you're up against, and how the game is progressing. It's meant to provide a quick way for you to understand what comes next on your journey to go plus ultra.

DATA-DRIVEN RECOMMENDATIONS : The presented items update based on the most popular build for your champion.

ITEM ADVICE : Find out if an item will help you specifically stomp a pesky opponent or if it's a generally all-around good choice

COMMONLY BUILT : Displays some of the most common item purchases for your champion.

All Items

The All Items page is where you go if you want to see all the items. It contains everything you need to slice and dice the armory of League down to reasonable chunks.

CLASS TABS : Your champion's class tab will automatically be selected, which helps you avoid looking at tank items on Ahri (unless that's your thing).

RECOMMENDED TAB : The Recommended tab displays all of the completed items your champion likes to build as well as their components. Clicking on this will raise your MMR.

STAT FILTERS : Stat filters allow you to find that special ability power + attack speed item you've been looking for this holiday season.

Quickbuy Panels

You may have noticed some tabs hanging out on the left side of the shop. Introducing the Quickbuy panels! They make commonly purchased items like potions, elixirs, wards, and boots easy to access and quick… to… buy.

CONSUMABLES TAB : Contains all potions, elixirs, and that control ward you swore you would buy if you weren't saving up for a B.F. Sword.

BOOTS TAB : Holds all manner of foot coverings.

INVENTORY TAB : Allows quick access to your inventory for selection, selling, and admiration.

Mythic Items[]

Mythic items are the new, highest item tier that will become the cornerstone of your build, with big effects that define your playstyle in each game. You can only own one at a time, so selecting a Mythic item (and the effects it grants) depends on your opponents and the game state. Your Mythic also sets the tone for the rest of your build, both in terms of which other items you'll want to pick up as well as a Mythic Passive that adds extra stats to your other fully completed items (now known as Legendary items). Mythic items generally carry the most complex effects and strongly impact your playstyle.

Even with the addition of a new tier of items, our goal isn't to inflate the power level of items overall. Mythics make your first choice more powerful than in the past, but we're borrowing that strength from the other item tiers to keep build strength relatively similar on the whole.

LIKE A FOUR LEAF CLOVER : Mythic items are unique and you can only own one at a time

MYTHIC PASSIVE : Each Mythic item has a passive that grants your Legendary items bonus stats

Why did the Mythic section above talk about "ability haste" rather than "cooldown reduction," and why didn't we explain ability haste first? Because Mythics are cooler, so we put them first for people with short attention spans.

Cooldown reduction was more valuable the more of it you got. Every percent reduced your cooldown by the same amount-say, one second off a 100-second cooldown. That one second didn't change even as the cooldown shrank. For that same 100-second cooldown, your 31st point of CDR took one second off the remaining 70-second cooldown, which is more than 1%. As such, CDR had to be capped at 40% to avoid going out of control, locking you out of a lot of items once you reached that cap.

Every point of ability haste lets you cast 1% faster. On paper, that makes it look like it gets less valuable the more you have because your cooldown shrinks by less and less each time. It's actually the same amount of power. 50 ability haste lets you cast an extra half a spell during the original cooldown. The next 50 gets you to a full extra cast (100% faster). If you get another 100 ability haste, you get another whole cast (200% faster). This linear scaling allows us to remove the cap, so you can buy as much as you want.

Vamp Effects

The big change here is that life steal now counts physical damage dealt by on-hit effects-since the idea is "heal from your attacks," it's more understandable if we include the whole attack. The other note is the addition of "physical vamp," (which currently exists just on Sanguine Blade) so its sustain can apply to assassins' abilities too. If you're curious whether that means we'll eventually bring back spell vamp, the answer is "maybe!"

LIFE STEAL : Heal from physical damage dealt by basic attacks. Now includes on-hit effects.

PHYSICAL VAMP : Heal from physical damage dealt by basic attacks and abilities (33% effective for AoE and pet damage)

OMNIVAMP : Heal from all sources and types of damage (still 33% effective for AoE and pet damage) (unchanged)

Critical Strike

Reducing the value of each point of critical strike chance and offering less of it per item allows us to smooth out marksman's build scaling and put more interesting-and powerful-unique effects on their items. They'll be stronger early- and mid-game, and their late-game damage will be less unilaterally based on constant crits since the other parts of their items will be more influential. Also, by spreading crit across five items (read: every non-boots slot) in marksman builds, we can put crit chance on more items because marksmen no longer run the risk of overcapping and losing access to items they otherwise would've wanted.

CRIT CHANCE ON LEGENDARY/MYTHIC ITEMS : [25% (4 items to max)] ⇒ 20% (5 items to max)

BASE CRITICAL STRIKE DAMAGE : [200%] ⇒ 175%

New Legendary Items[]

"Legendary" is the category of item that used to be the most powerful tier. They're your completed non-boots items that don't build into anything else.

We assessed different item classes to see which niches were most needed to create more meaningful choices. We also ensured that tools that were taken out of the item pool had good replacements when it made sense. Since Liandry's is now a Mythic, for instance, Demonic Embrace fills the niche for tankier champs who can't pick Liandry's every game, but still need a burn effect to deal relevant damage in fights. Because Mercurial Scimitar is now geared more towards marksman champions, we created a new version for fighters and assassins. Grievous Wounds warrants a special callout: We want to give more people access to it in ways that feel appropriate for their playstyles.

	Seryla's Grudge caps off assassin builds, slowing enemies into their graves.

Updated Legendary Items[]

Just like with to our goals for new Legendaries, we wanted to ensure existing options all offer a clear, unique reason to buy them, and that the item shop as a whole gives champions the tools they need to bring their innate strengths to bear, play into their allies, and react to enemy threats. One trend you'll notice is that many active effects have been removed or changed into passives: We want Mythics to house the most exciting and complex item effects, which meant simplifying Legendaries to ensure builds overall weren't becoming more complicated.

Note: For each item below that has its own section, functionality has changed enough that the usual "before -> after" treatment felt like the wrong approach. We want to equip you with the ability to evaluate "When do I want to buy this item now?" and provide a clean, comprehensive rundown of what each item offers does that better. There's a bucket at the bottom for items that are only getting small tuning adjustments—those'll have the "before -> after" lists since they still work the same.

		Mortal Reminder No longer grants Armor Penetration. Now builds from Zeal. Now offers improved Grievous Wounds.
	Previously, Mortal Reminder's percent penetration usually meant that completing it early was worse than buying more damage, since enemies needed to stack Armor before the penetration really mattered. Now, Mortal Reminder's more favorable build path and upgraded Grievous Wounds on completion offer additional incentive to complete it at all stages of the game. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2700 gold BUILD PATH : Executioner's Calling + Zeal + 700 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 20 ATTACK SPEED : 25% CRITICAL STRIKE CHANCE : 20% MOVE SPEED : 7% Effects SEPSIS : Dealing physical damage applies 40% Grievous Wounds to enemy champions for 2 seconds. Dealing 3 consecutive basic attacks to an enemy champion enhances this effect to 60% Grievous Wounds against them until the effect is allowed to elapse.

		Guinsoo's Rageblade Now grants on-hit damage based on critical strike chance, but you can't crit. No longer grants stacking attack speed. No longer grants attack damage, ability power, or penetration.
	On-hit builds didn't have many build options since so much of the attack-focused portion of the shop is focused on the crit system. Rather than continue to have on-hit and crit continue fighting for item niches, Guinsoo's Rageblade now acts as a bridge between the crit and on-hit ecosystems, allowing Kog'Maws to access effects like Phantom Dancer or Runaan's Hurricane without wasting stats. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2600 gold BUILD PATH : Rageknife + Cloak of Agility + Dagger + 900 gold ATTACK SPEED : 40% CRITICAL STRIKE CHANCE : 20% Effects WRATH : Basic attacks apply 45 physical damage on-hit per 20% critical strike chance, but you can no longer critically strike SEETHING STRIKE : Every third basic attack applies your on-hit effects twice

		Phantom Dancer No longer has Lifeline. Grants Ghosting, movement speed, and bonus attack speed after consecutive attacks.
	Phantom Dancer's defensive niche has been claimed by Immortal Shieldbow, so we're returning Phantom Dancer to its previous purpose as the highest attack and movement speed of the Zeal items. Its new passive emphasizes that Phantom Dancer is a top-tier choice when you can stand and fire in extended fights. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2900 gold BUILD PATH : Dagger + Zeal + Dagger + 1100 gold ATTACK SPEED : 40% CRITICAL STRIKE CHANCE : 20% MOVE SPEED : 7% Effects SPECTRAL WALTZ : Basic attacks grant Ghosting and 7% movement speed for 2 seconds. In addition, attacking 5 times causes Spectral Waltz to also grant 40% attack speed for the same duration.

		Lord Dominik's Regards Now has critical strike chance. Deals additional damage against high-health targets.
	Lord Dominik's Regards (and OG Last Whisper from years ago) has always occupied an anti-tank niche but has also flip-flopped between marksmen and assassins, always stronger for one class than the other. Situational items like this should feel rewarding to purchase when the occasion arises, meaning their stats need to be appropriately powerful for the class they're meant for. So, Lord Dominik's Regards has acquired some crit and is balanced for marksmen alone, while assassins have the new Serylda's Grudge item above. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2900 gold BUILD PATH : Last Whisper + Cloak of Agility + 850 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 30 CRITICAL STRIKE CHANCE : 20% ARMOR PENETRATION : 25% Effects GIANT SLAYER : Deals up to 15% bonus physical damage against champions with greater max health than you

		Essence Reaver Now builds out of Sheen and has a Spellblade passive.
	The ability-weaving pattern of Sheen has always been fun and popular on some marksman champions, but Trinity Force frequently fell below the viability bar for those champions since it was balanced for fighters. Enter Essence Reaver, which has been revamped to double-down on the fantasy of a spell-slinging basic attacker. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2900 gold BUILD PATH : Caulfield's Warhammer + Sheen + Cloak of Agility + 500 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 40 CRITICAL STRIKE CHANCE : 20% ABILITY HASTE : 20 Effects SPELLBLADE : After using an ability, your next basic attack deals an additional 100% base AD + 40% bonus AD physical damage and restores 3% mana (1.5 second cooldown)

		Infinity Edge Increased critical strike damage now scales with critical strike chance.
	Infinity Edge is an iconic and valuable part of the marksman ecosystem, but buying it first most every game left little room for anything else to compete. We've reenvisioned Infinity Edge in a Deathcap-esque form that increases in value as a crit build progresses, allowing it to remain a staple power-spike in crit builds without defining the marksman early game with its awkward build path and lack of utility. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3400 gold BUILD PATH : B.F. Sword + Pickaxe + Cloak of Agility + 625 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 70 CRITICAL STRIKE CHANCE : 20% Effects PERFECTION : Gain an additional 8% critical strike damage per 20% critical strike chance (max 40%)

		Manamune Now provides ability haste. Spending mana without hitting a target no longer grants stacks. Mana per stack and transform threshold reduced.
	Manamune should be a valuable purchase to AD spellcasters who enjoy mana as well as AD. Ability haste in addition to the Muramana changes should broaden the list of champions who can use this item. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2600 gold BUILD PATH : Tear of the Goddess + Caulfield's Warhammer + Sapphire Crystal + 750 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 35 MANA : 400 ABILITY HASTE : 15 Effects AWE : Gain bonus AD equal to 2% maximum mana. MANA CHARGE : Strike a target with an attack or ability to consume a charge and gain 3 bonus mana. Bonus mana gain doubled if the target is a champion. This item transforms into Muramana once 450 bonus mana has been granted. Gain a new mana charge every 8 seconds (max 4).

		Muramana Bonus damage now applies to abilities in addition to attacks. No longer consumes mana on proc.
	Following the Manamune changes, allowing Muramana to proc on abilities further encourages AD casters to consider a new addition to their item builds. Removing the mana consumption increases clarity and lets users focus more on letting their spells fly. Base Stats TOTAL COST : Upgraded Manamune ATTACK DAMAGE : 35 MANA : 850 ABILITY HASTE : 15 Effects AWE : Gain bonus attack damage equal to 2% maximum mana SHOCK : When targeting champions, ability strikes and basic attacks deal additional physical damage equal to 4% maximum mana

		Archangel's Staff AP per mana increased. No longer grants ability haste or mana refund on cast. Spending mana without hitting a target no longer grants stacks. Mana per stack and transform threshold reduced.
	The previous version of Seraph's offered a power scaling option both offensively and defensively with its shield. We're shifting the Archangel's line to be the purely offensive, greedy option by focusing on its slacking mana and AP fantasy. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3000 gold BUILD PATH : Tear of the Goddess + Needlessly Large Rod + Sapphire Crystal + 1000 gold ABILITY POWER : 60 MANA : 400 Effects AWE : Gain bonus ability power equal to 3% maximum mana MANA CHARGE : Strike a target with an ability to consume a charge and gain 3 bonus mana. Bonus mana gain doubled if the target is a champion. This item transforms into Seraph's Embrace once 450 bonus mana has been granted. Gain a new mana charge every 8 seconds (max 4).

		Seraph's Embrace AP per mana increased. Now also grants mana per AP. No longer grants ability haste or mana refund on cast. No longer grants a shield.
	Seraph's now gives purely offensive stats as a scaling item for mages. Instead of an on-demand shield (which allowed Seraph's to provide both offensive and defensive options), Seraph's now gives more scaling AP and mana. Base Stats TOTAL COST : Upgraded Archangel's Staff ABILITY POWER : 60 MANA : 850 Effects AWE : Gain bonus ability power equal to 5% maximum mana EMPYREAN : Increase your total mana by 5% (+2.5% per 100 AP)

		Lich Bane Spellblade damage and cooldown increased. No longer grants mana or ability haste.
	Opening up Lich Bane to not just mana users by removing the mana from Sheen and also giving it higher upfront damage at the cost of a slightly increased cooldown. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3000 gold BUILD PATH : Sheen + Aether Wisp + Blasting Wand + 600 gold ABILITY POWER : 80 MOVE SPEED : 10% Effects SPELLBLADE : After using an ability, your next basic attack is enhanced with an additional 150% base AD + 60% ability power magic damage (2.5 second cooldown)

		Blade of the Ruined King Movement speed active is now a passive.
	Wanted to retain this iconic and unique active effect, but needed to make some room for the actives and other more complex effects coming through from Mythic items. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3100 gold BUILD PATH : Vampiric Scepter + Recurve Bow + Pickaxe + 325 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 40 ATTACK SPEED : 30 LIFESTEAL : 12% Effects MIST'S EDGE : Basic attacks apply physical damage equal to [10% for melee \|\| 6% for ranged] of the target's current health SIPHON : Basic attacking a champion 3 times deals 40-120 magic damage (levels 1-18) and steals 25% movement speed for 2 seconds

		Black Cleaver Now deals missing health damage against fully stacked targets. No longer grants movement speed on-hit.
	Black Cleaver did many things decently well, but we want it to do fewer things better. Moved its movement-speed-granting effects to more movement based items and replaced with an execution effect on targets you've fully shredded. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3300 gold BUILD PATH : Caulfield's Warhammer + Kindlegem + Longsword + 1050 gold HEALTH : 300 ATTACK DAMAGE : 40 ABILITY HASTE : 25 Effects CARVE : Dealing physical damage to a champion applies a stack of 4% armor reduction for 6 seconds, up to 6 stacks (max 24%) BUTCHER : Damaging attacks and abilities against fully Shredded enemies deal an additional 5% of the target's missing health in physical damage (damage-over-time effects deal 2% missing health instead, 0.5 second cooldown)

		Ravenous Hydra Cleave now also procs on abilities and ranged basic attacks. Now grants Omnivamp instead of life steal. No longer grants health regen. Active removed.
	Active re-homed in “Goredrinker,” a fighter Mythic with room for an effect of this complexity and power. Ravenous Hydra simplified to be THE vamp item for physical damage casters or basic attackers. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3300 gold BUILD PATH : Tiamat + Vampiric Scepter + Caulfield's Warhammer + 100 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 65 ABILITY HASTE : 20 OMNIVAMP : 15% Effects CLEAVE : Basic attacks and abilities deal up to 60% of your attack damage to other enemies near the target. (Damage scales down with distance from the target. Only once per ability.)

		Titanic Hydra Now grants AD based on health. Cleave now also procs on ranged basic attacks. No longer grants health regen. Active removed.
	Shaping Titanic Hydra to be a bridge between heavy tank builds and fighter builds. Some power taken out of its on-hit and moved to raw AD to give it a home with champions who don't attack as often but still like AD. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3300 gold BUILD PATH : Tiamat + Ruby Crystal + Giant's Belt + 800 gold HEALTH : 500 ATTACK DAMAGE : 30 Effects COLOSSUS : Gain bonus attack damage equal to 1% of your max health CLEAVE : Basic attacks deal additional physical damage equal to 4 (+1.5% of your max health) to the target and 40 (+3% of your max health) to enemies behind the target (75% damage for ranged)

		Wit's End Now grants movement speed on-hit instead of healing.
	With a few more healing options in the mythic space, we had to be judicious with other sources of healing. Replaced with movement speed to offer light fighters (Fiora, Yi, Ekko, etc) another powerful form of utility. Now with more AD to broaden appeal among fighters. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3100 gold BUILD PATH : Hearthbound Axe + Negatron Cloak + Dagger + 800 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 30 ATTACK SPEED : 40% MAGIC RESIST : 50 Effects FRAY : Basic attacks apply 15-80 (levels 1-18) magic damage on-hit and grant 20 movement speed for 2 seconds

		Maw of Malmortius Lifeline shield increased; bonus stats on proc removed.
	With more specialized healing options elsewhere, we wanted Maw to stand out as THE anti-magic-burst item. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3100 gold BUILD PATH : Hexdrinker + Caulfield's Warhammer + 700 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 50 MAGIC RESIST : 50 ABILITY HASTE : 15 Effects LIFELINE : Upon taking magic damage that would reduce health below 30%, gain a 200 (+20% max health) magic damage shield for 5 seconds (60 second cooldown)

		Death's Dance Omnivamp replaced with Bleed cleanse, movement speed, and heal on takedown. Magic damage no longer reduced and converted to Bleed.
	Death's Dance was the 1-stop-shop for everything fighters needed. AoE healing, mitigation against all damage sources, bonus damage, cooldown, etc. We still offer all these effects in the item shop, but the combination requires piecing together a few more purchases. Death's Dance is sharpening its role into the anti-physical damage item. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3100 gold BUILD PATH : Chain Vest + Caulfield's Warhammer + Pickaxe + 325 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 50 ARMOR : 40 ABILITY HASTE : 15 Effects IGNORE PAIN : [35% for melee \|\| 15% for ranged] of physical damage taken is dealt to you over 3 seconds instead DEFY : Champion takedowns cleanse Ignore Pain's remaining damage, grant you 30% movement speed for 2 seconds, and restore 10% of your max health over the duration

		Sterak's Gage Base Shield decreased but now scales with number of enemies in combat. Now grants healing based on enemies in combat. Tenacity removed. No longer melee only.
	Sterak's is still your go-to optimal purchase for constant teamfighting. If you're dueling or in small skirmishes though, Death's Dance or Maw will outshine it against physical and magic damage, respectively. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3100 gold BUILD PATH : Pickaxe + Phage + Ruby Crystal + 725 gold HEALTH : 400 ATTACK DAMAGE : 50 Effects BLOODLUST : Dealing damage to or taking damage from a champion grants a stack, restoring 2% of your max health over 6 seconds (max 5 stacks, 1 per enemy champion; healing 60% effective for ranged users) LIFELINE : Upon taking damage that would reduce your health below 30%, gain a shield equal to 200, plus 8% of your max health per stack of Rage (60 second cooldown, max health portion of shield 60% smaller for ranged users)

		Randuin's Omen Active now also reduces enemy AD and crit damage. Now passively reduces damage taken from any basic attack, not just crits. No longer reduces enemy attack speed when hit.
	Retooling Randuin's to better identify its effectiveness as a powerful defensive tool against all physical damage and specifically crit-based attacks. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2700 gold BUILD PATH : Warden's Mail + Cloth Armor + Kindlegem + 600 gold HEALTH : 250 ARMOR : 80 ABILITY HASTE : 10 Effects HUMILITY (ACTIVE) : Briefly slow nearby enemies and reduce their attack damage by 10% and critical strike damage by 20% for 4 seconds (60 second cooldown) ROCK SOLID : Reduce incoming damage from basic attacks by up to 0.5% of your max health, capped at 40% of the attack's damage

		Frozen Heart Now passively reduces damage taken from basic attacks.
	While Randuin's fills the anti-crit space, Frozen Heart takes the same core effect but retains its previous niche as an anti-attack speed item. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2700 gold BUILD PATH : Warden's Mail + Glacial Shroud + 800 gold MANA : 400 ARMOR : 80 ABILITY HASTE : 20 Effects WINTER'S CARESS : Reduces the attack speed of nearby enemies by 15% ROCK SOLID : Reduce incoming damage from basic attacks by up to 0.5% of your max health, capped at 40% of the attack's damage

		Gargoyle Stoneplate Active converted to a decaying shield. Passive grants resistances on taking damage.
	Reinforcing Gargoyle Stoneplate as the ideal item for players who love to teamfight and tank entire teams. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3300 gold BUILD PATH : Aegis of the Legon + Cloth Armor + Null-Magic Mantle + 1050 gold ARMOR : 60 MAGIC RESIST : 60 ABILITY HASTE : 15 Effects UNBREAKABLE (ACTIVE) : Gain a 100 (+100% bonus health) shield that decays over 2.5 seconds (90 second cooldown) FORTIFY : Taking damage from a champion grants 3% bonus armor and 3% bonus magic resist for 6 seconds, once per enemy champion (max 15% bonus armor and magic resist)

		Abyssal Mask Passive changed to increased damage on immobilized enemies.
	Abyssal Mask now has a more streamlined use-case and has been broadened to increase all damage to the target, not just magic. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2700 gold BUILD PATH : Giant's Belt + Negatron Cloak + 900 gold HEALTH : 350 MAGIC RESIST : 60 Effects UNMAKE : Immobilizing a champion causes them to take 10% increased damage for 4 seconds

		Thornmail Damage reduced and now applies improved Grievous Wounds upon immobilizing an enemy.
	On top of applying Grievous Wounds when hit, Thornmail now gives tanks a way to proactively apply the effect without waiting for enemies to attack. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2700 gold BUILD PATH : Bramble Vest + Giant's Belt + 1000 gold HEALTH : 350 ARMOR : 60 Effects THORNS : When struck by an attack, deal 10 (+10% bonus armor) magic damage to the attacker and apply 40% Grievous Wounds for 2 seconds if they are a champion. Immobilizing enemy champions also applies 60% Grievous Wounds for 2 seconds.

		Zeke's Convergence Now grants bonus on-hit damage to your linked ally on targets you have immobilized.
	Zeke's previous effect was extremely powerful, but limited to small windows and was hard to appreciate. Updated the effect to be more easily accessible for beefier supports who want to lock-down and protect their carries. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2400 gold BUILD PATH : Kindlegem + Glacial Shroud + 700 gold HEALTH : 300 MANA : 250 ARMOR : 30 ABILITY HASTE : 20 Effects CONDUIT (ACTIVE) : Designate an Accomplice (60 second cooldown) CONVERGENCE : For 4 seconds after you immobilize an enemy, your Accomplice's attacks and abilities hits apply an additional 25-50 (+1.5% your max health) (+7.5% your AP) magic damage to that enemy

		Knight's Vow Damage redirect increased. Now grants movement speed toward low-health Partners. No longer grants armor, passive movement speed towards Partner, or heals from Partner damage.
	Moving Knight's Vow in the Warden niche by increasing the health and damage redirection on the item. A sharper movement speed effect should also help allies swoop in to save the day for their allies in peril. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2300 gold BUILD PATH : Crystalline Bracer + Rejuvenation Bead + Kindlegem + 700 gold HEALTH : 400 BASE HEALTH REGEN : 300% ABILITY HASTE : 10 Effects PLEDGE (ACTIVE) : Designate an ally who is Worthy (60 second cooldown). SACRIFICE : While your Worthy ally is nearby, redirect 15% of damage they take to you and if they have less than 50% health gain 35% movement speed when running towards them.

		Morellonomicon Now grants access to improved Grievous Wounds. No longer grants magic penetration.
	Making Morello a pure anti-healing item rather than a mixed-purpose confusing item so that you won't have to use your advanced math degree to determine optimal damage. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 2500 gold BUILD PATH : Blasting Wand + Oblivion Orb + Ruby Crystal + 450 gold ABILITY POWER : 70 HEALTH : 250 Effects AFFLICTION : Dealing magic damage applies 40% Grievous Wounds to enemy champions for 2 seconds. If the target is below 50% health, this effect is increased to 60% Grievous wounds.

		Sanguine Blade Now provides physical vamp instead of life steal.
	We're promoting Sanguine Blade's life steal into the new physical vamp stat so ability-heavy assassins can benefit from its sustain as well while they clear waves and champions. Base Stats TOTAL COST : 3000 gold BUILD PATH : Serrated Dirk + Vampiric Scepter + 1000 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 50 LETHALITY : 10 PHYSICAL VAMP : 12% Effects FRENZY : While near one or fewer visible enemy champions gain 8 lethality and 20-80% (levels 1-18) attack speed, decaying over 3 seconds if other enemy champions get too close.

Legendary Items Balance Changes[]

Some items are only being returned to fit into preseason-the biggest change you'll find in any of the sections below is the addition or removal of stat types, but not entire unique effects (with Mikael's' regen-granting Harmony passive as an exception). As with the other Legendaries, keep in mind that Mythic passives add additional stats that aren't listed here, so things that look like flat nerfs are at least in part adjusting for that extra power.

Jungle Items & Changes[]

We want junglers to be able to engage with the item system instead of being forced to purchase the same dull item every game, especially with the Mythic item system making your first item so important. We're taking cues from last year's well-received update to support items and letting junglers progress toward their Smite without having to spend more money. That puts them on even footing with the other four positions in terms of being able to start on their Mythic right away.

Also, we snuck some jungle camp changes into this section so junglers can process everything specific to the role in one place. "You're welcome" or "we're sorry," depending on whether that helped or confused you personally.

		Hailblade
	The blue one. COST : 350 gold OMNIVAMP AGAINST MONSTERS : 12% TOOTH & NAIL : Damaging monsters burns them for 60 (+10% AP) (+2% bonus health) (+5% bonus AD) magic damage over 5 seconds. CHILLING PATH : Smiting 5 times consumes this item and upgrades your Smite to Chilling Smite HUNTSMAN : Killing large monsters grants bonus experience LEYLINE WALKER : Regen up to 8-18 (levels 1-18) mana per second when in the jungle or river. Chilling Smite AGAINST CHAMPIONS : When Smiting champions, Chilling Smite deals 20-156 true damage and steals 20% of their movement speed for 2 seconds

		Emberknife
	The red one. We're also cleaning up Challenging Smite to make it a bit more intuitive. COST : 350 gold OMNIVAMP AGAINST MONSTERS : 12% TOOTH & NAIL : Damaging monsters burns them for 60 (+10% AP) (+2% bonus health) (+5% bonus AD) magic damage over 5 seconds. CHALLENGING PATH : Smiting 5 times consumes this item and upgrades your Smite to Challenging Smite HUNTSMAN : Killing large monsters grants bonus experience LEYLINE WALKER : Regen up to 8-18 (levels 1-18) mana per second when in the jungle or river. Challenging Smite AGAINST CHAMPIONS : When Smiting champions, Challenging Smite marks them for 4 seconds. During this time, your damaging attacks and abilities deal 48-125 bonus true damage to them over 2.5 seconds (refreshing but not stacking) and you take 20% reduced damage from the Smited enemy. ABILITIES : Abilities now apply and refresh the burn alongside basic attacks CLARITY : Challenging Smite's damage reduction now has VFX and displays the amount reduced as combat text

Jungle Camp Adjustments

Overall, our aim is to slightly improve pathing diversity and make the camps feel distinct.

We're running a consistency pass to remove some arcane optimizations and rules that aren't apparent in game. Gromp and Scuttle in particular are getting changes to emphasize their unique identities. In Scuttle's case, she'll also be a little less costly to lose since you're not losing a chunk of sustain.

		Gromp
		MAGIC RESIST : [(15-30) (levels 1-18)] ⇒ 20 at all levels HEALTH : [2100-3450 (levels 1-11)] ⇒ 1650-2460 (levels 1-11) TOAD RAGE Gromp's first three attacks no longer have increased attack speed or deal 50% increased damage TOAD SOUP Killing Gromp restores 50 (+10 * average champion level) health and 30 (+6 * average champion level) mana, increased by up to 100% based on killer's missing health and mana respectively ATTACK DAMAGE : [70-259 (levels 1-18)] ⇒ 80-253 (levels 1-18)

		Blue Sentinel
		ARMOR : [10-20 (levels 1-8)] ⇒ 20 at all levels MAGIC RESIST : [(15-30) (levels 1-8)] ⇒ 20 at all levels HEALTH : [2100-3675 (levels 1-11)] ⇒ 1800-3150 (levels 1-11) MOVEMENT SPEED : [180] ⇒ 275

		Crimson Raptor
		ARMOR : [30-60 (levels 1-8)] ⇒ 20 at all levels MAGIC RESIST : [30-60 (levels 1-8)] ⇒ 20 at all levels HEALTH : [700-1225 (levels 1-11)] ⇒ 800-1760 (levels 1-11) MOVEMENT SPEED : [350] ⇒ 450

		Lesser Raptor
		HEALTH : [400-680 (levels 1-11)] ⇒ 425-723 (levels 1-11) MOVEMENT SPEED : [450] ⇒ 525

		Red Brambleback
		ARMOR : [15-30 (levels 1-8)] ⇒ 20 at all levels MAGIC RESIST : [10-20 (levels 1-8)] ⇒ 20 at all levels HEALTH : [2100-3675 (levels 1-11)] ⇒ 1800-3150 (levels 1-11)

		Ancient Krug
		ARMOR : [10-20 (levels 1-8)] ⇒ 20 at all levels MAGIC RESIST : [15-30 (levels 1-8)] ⇒ 20 at all levels HEALTH : [1250-2188 (levels 1-11)] ⇒ 1050-1785 (levels 1-11) MOVEMENT SPEED : [185] ⇒ 250

		Krug
		MOVEMENT SPEED : [285] ⇒ 350 EXPERIENCE : [18-24.3 (levels 1-9)] ⇒ 10-13.5 (levels 1-9) GOLD : [13] ⇒ 7

		Lesser Krug
		MOVEMENT SPEED : [335] ⇒ 400 EXPERIENCE : [13-18.9 (levels 1-9)] ⇒ 18-24.3 (levels 1-9) GOLD : [0] ⇒ 12 NUGGETS Shine gold to properly reflect their gold and experience value

		Rift Scuttler
		ARMOR : [60] ⇒ 20 MAGIC RESIST : [60] ⇒ 20 HEALTH : [1200-2560 (levels 1-17)] ⇒ 1000-2066 (levels 1-17) LOOSE CARAPACE Spawns with a 60% max health shield. Shield breaks when immobilized. VULNERABLE UNDERBELLY Rift Scuttler no longer loses 50 Armor and Magic Resist or takes 25% increased damage after being immobilized CRAB SOUP Killing Rift Scuttler no longer restores health and mana

Epic Items[]

Epic items are the tier below Legendary: They're the mid-tier components of Legendary and Mythic items that build out of basic items. We're ensuring they serve their role as valuable building blocks, offering incremental stats and effects that smooth your progression toward bigger purchases.

Like the Legendaries, we're providing blank-slate presentations of these Epics to give you a clean read on when you'll want to pick them up. New and updated have been mixed together since there aren't as many.

		Noonquiver NEW
	Marksman champions suffer from awkward early-game components that leave them missing either attack damage or attack speed, both of which are critical for them to feel powerful. So, we created Noonquiver-an Epic that specifically builds into marksman Mythics and features both stats. Noonquiver also amplifies marksman PvE capabilities to provide the early lane management marksman champions crave without sending their PvP power over the top. Lastly, by giving it a smooth build path of smaller parts, it avoids the lane snowballing issue B.F. Sword had if you were forced to back before saving up 1300 gold. TOTAL COST : 1300 gold BUILD PATH : Longsword + Dagger + Longsword + 300 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 30 ATTACK SPEED : 15% Effects PRECISION : Attacks deal an additional 20 physical damage to minions and monsters

		Rageknife NEW
	Giving on-hit champs the flexibility to access Guinsoo's new crit-converting effect without completing Rageblade itself so they can spec into crit chance items first if the situation calls for it. TOTAL COST : 800 gold BUILD PATH : Dagger + Dagger + 200 gold ATTACK SPEED : 25% Effects WRATH : Attacks apply 35 physical damage on-hit per 20% of your critical strike chance, but you can no longer critically strike

		Blighting Jewel NEW
	Percent armor penetration has Last Whisper as a component. Adding Blighting Jewel to establish build path parity for percent magic penetration. TOTAL COST : 1250 gold BUILD PATH : Amplifying Tome + 815 gold ABILITY POWER : 25 MAGIC PENETRATION : 15%

		Leeching Leer NEW
	One of the new building-blocks of the system for mages who want to deal and heal. TOTAL COST : 1300 gold BUILD PATH : Ruby Crystal + Amplifying Tome + 465 gold HEALTH : 150 ABILITY POWER : 20 OMNIVAMP : 10%

		Oblivion Orb
	Giving mages earlier access to Grievous Wounds, like physical damage dealers get from Executioner's Calling. Orb is losing its flat penetration to get this effect. TOTAL COST : 800 gold BUILD PATH : Amplifying Tome + 365 gold ABILITY POWER : 30 CURSED : Dealing magic damage applies 40% Grievous Wounds to champions for 2 seconds

		Seeker's Armguard
	Simplifying and making the item cheaper. TOTAL COST : 900 gold BUILD PATH : Cloth Armor + Amplifying Tome + 165 gold ABILITY POWER : 30 ARMOR : 15 WITCH'S PATH : Killing a unit grants 1 armor, stacking up to 30 times

		Hextech Alternator NEW
	Opening up the item to be less restrictive on who can take and use it—the damage proc now applies to abilities too. TOTAL COST : 1050 gold BUILD PATH : Amplifying Tome + Amplifying Tome + 180 gold ABILITY POWER : 40 REVVED : Damaging an enemy champion deals an additional 50-125 magic damage (40 second cooldown)

		Bami's Cinder
	The centerpoint of tank Mythics now scales better early, though it loses its bursty immobilize proc in exchange. TOTAL COST : 1000 gold BUILD PATH : Ruby Crystal + Ruby Crystal + 200 gold HEALTH : 300 IMMOLATE : Deal 15 (+1% bonus health) magic damage per second to nearby enemies (increased by 50% against minions and 100% against monsters).

		Winged Moonplate NEW
	We didn't have a movement speed + health component. Now we do. TOTAL COST : 800 gold BUILD PATH : Ruby Crystal + 400 gold HEALTH : 150 FLIGHT : Grats 5% movement speed

		Verdant Barrier NEW
	Giving an MR equivalent to Seeker's Armguard so when you need to survive a difficult ability power lane you have options. TOTAL COST : 1200 gold BUILD PATH : Null-Magic Mantle + Amplifying Tome + 315 gold ABILITY POWER : 25 MAGIC RESISTANCE : 25 ADAPTIVE : Every 60 seconds, gain 3 magic resist (max 15). Taking magic damage from champions reduces the time until the next increase by 5% of the damage taken (ex. taking 100 magic damage reduces the time by 5 seconds).

		Warden's Mail
	Changing the previous effect to something more selfish and noticeable by the owner. TOTAL COST : 1000 gold BUILD PATH : Cloth Armor + Cloth Armor + 400 gold ARMOR : 40 ROCK SOLID : Reduce incoming damage from basic attacks by 0.5% bonus health, capped at 40% of the basic attack's damage

		Phage
	Changing Phage into a Health-scaling Epic that helps fighters beef up in longer fights. Its old passive is moving to a new item. Look down a few lines. TOTAL COST : 1100 gold BUILD PATH : Ruby Crystal + Longsword + 350 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 15 HEALTH : 200 STURDY : [After you deal physical damage to a champion, restore [2% melee ] ⇒ 1% ranged] max health over 6 seconds

		Hearthbound Axe NEW
	Home to Phage's old passive, our new, more agility-themed weapon offers movement speed on hit and builds into several items that do the same. TOTAL COST : 1100 gold BUILD PATH : Dagger + Longsword + 450 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 15 ATTACK SPEED : 15 NIMBLE : [Attacking a unit grants [20 for melee ] ⇒ 10 for ranged] movement speed for 2 seconds.

		Tiamat
	We're splitting up Tiamat's passive and active to let each take on more of a center-stage role as separate components. Tiamat is keeping the passive; the active is moving to a new item just below. TOTAL COST : 1200 gold BUILD PATH : Pickaxe + 325 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 25 CLEAVE : Attacks deal up to 60% total attack damage physical damage to other nearby enemies

		Ironspike Whip NEW
	Tiamat's active and passives were split up to let each of them take a more center stage in their respective item. Ironspike Whip inherited Tiamat's Active. TOTAL COST : 1200 gold BUILD PATH : Pickaxe + 325 gold ATTACK DAMAGE : 30 CRESCENT (ACTIVE) : Deal 75% total attack damage physical damage to nearby enemies. Minions and monsters below 50% health take 200% damage (15 second cooldown, affected by ability haste).

		Bandleglass Mirror NEW
	Filling a hole in the system so that mana regen items with ability haste aren't 100% bound to heal and shield power. TOTAL COST : 1050 gold BUILD PATH : Faerie Charm + Amplifying Tome + 365 gold ABILITY POWER : 20 ABILITY HASTE : 10 MANA REGEN : 50%

Basic, Starter & Support Items[]

Finally, we've got our basic, starter, and support items. The ones that don't have any components of their own.

		Tear of the Goddess
	Moving Tear into the Starting Item space to serve as a greedy, scaling option for spellcasters. The stacking mechanic has been changed to discourage empty spell spamming and encourage opportunistic trading. TOTAL COST : 400 gold MANA : 150 FOCUS : Attacks deal an additional 5 physical damage to minions MANA CHARGE : Strike a target with an ability to consume a charge and gain 3 bonus mana, up to a maximum of 450 bonus mana. Bonus mana doubled if the target is a champion. Gain a new mana charge every 8 seconds (max 4).

		Dark Seal
	Making Seal a better option for those who don't need mana, and unbinding its strength from potions. ABILITY POWER : 15 HEALTH : 40 DO OR DIE : Champion assists and kills grant 1 and 2 stacks of Glory respectively, up to 10 stacks. Lose 4 stacks on death. GLORY : Grants 5 ability power per stack of Glory.

		Doran's Blade
	Slightly broadening our starting item options so they're more favorable to those who use more spells and have mixed damage types. ATTACK DAMAGE : 8 HEALTH : 80 WARFORGED : Grants 2.5% Omnivamp

		Doran's Ring
	Opening up Doran's ring to non-mana users and bringing back the old last-hitting skill test. ABILITY POWER : 15 HEALTH : 70 MANA RESTORE : Killing a minion restores 6 mana. Excess mana (all 6 of it if you can't gain mana) is converted to healing, at a 50% rate.

	Basic & Starter Item Balance Changes
		Cloak of Agility TOTAL COST : [800 gold] ⇒ 600 gold CRITICAL STRIKE CHANCE : [20%] ⇒ 15% Faerie Charm TOTAL COST : [125 gold] ⇒ 250 gold MANA REGEN : [25%] ⇒ 50%

Support Item Balance Changes

To ensure support builds are influenced similarly by their Mythic passives as other roles, we're counting the fully upgraded forms as Legendaries but reducing their innate stats so they don't become more powerful in the process. We're also buffing Spoils of War and Tribute so supports can bring their Mythics online closer to everyone else.

LEGENDARY : Fully upgraded support items count as Legendaries

SPOILS OF WAR : [Gain a charge every 45 seconds] ⇒ 35 seconds

TRIBUTE : [15 gold per proc] ⇒ 20 gold per proc

Pauldrons of Whiterock

HEALTH : [300] ⇒ 250

Bulwark of the Mountain

HEALTH : [300] ⇒ 250

ABILITY POWER : [25] ⇒ 20

Shard of True Ice

HEALTH : [100] ⇒ 75

ABILITY POWER : [50] ⇒ 40

Black Mist Scythe

HEALTH : [100] ⇒ 75

ATTACK DAMAGE : [25] ⇒ 20

		Plated Steelcaps
	A long, long time ago, Ninja Tabi granted dodge chance, allowing users to sometimes avoid basic attacks entirely. That stopped being the case in... checks notes 2012. We're finally catching up and re-theming these boots. NAME : [Ninja Tabi] ⇒ Plated Steelcaps

Removed Items[]

Last on the list for our items world tour is paying respects to the items leaving the shop.

Hextech GLP-800
Now a Mythic item (Everfrost). This one's not as much a 1-to-1 Mythic-ification like the others since Everfrost's active is more defensive and less pick-oriented. If you're looking for a slow cone, though, you'll find a familiar toy here, with some extra use cases.

Luden's Echo
Now a Mythic item (Luden's Tempest)

Liandry's Torment
Now a Mythic item (Liandry's Anguish)

Hextech Protobelt-01
Now a Mythic item (Hextech Rocketbelt)

Sunfire Cape
Now a Mythic item (Sunfire Aegis)

Righteous Glory
Now a Mythic item (Turbo Chemtank)

Iceborn Gauntlet
Now a Mythic item (Frostfire Gauntlet)

Duskblade of Draktharr
Now a Mythic item

Trinity Force
Now a Mythic item

Shurelya's Reverie
Now a Mythic item (Shurelya's Battlesong)

Locket of the Iron Solari
Now a Mythic item

Adaptive Helm
Helm was too niche, only countering a few champions but to a major degree. Also didn't feel powerful even when it was.

Athene's Unholy Grail
Athene's was constantly a mandatory item for certain champions and gave much more power than we could support.

Frozen Mallet
Mallet was either much too niche when balanced, or way too strong when purchased by more than one or two champs.

Hextech Gunblade
Gunblade completely overwhelmed build options for a small pool of champions but saw very little use outside of that pool. It was also one of the more frustrating items in the shop.

Spellbinder
Spellbinder was hard to use well and hard to know whether you used it well.

Rod of Ages
RoA's time-scaling fantasy didn't feel impactful on a Mythic for a first purchase and didn't feel realistic as a later purchase. It also overlapped in fantasy with Archangel's, but was the less exciting of the two.

Statikk Shiv
Shiv's chain lightning effect was either underwhelming when balanced or too strong when it felt good.

Twin Shadows
Twin Shadows was too powerful and playstyle-warping when tuned to be purchasable.

Jaurim's Fist
Unlike Seeker's Armguard, whose armor stacking mechanic gives physical damage dealers a window to fight mages in lane before full stacks, the health stacking mechanic on Jaurim's isn't doing anything valuable. It's been largely replaced with the new Phage as a health+AD component.

Chalice of Harmony
Chalice was redundant with other mana Epics that were filling out the shop (especially with the removal of Athene's). The other options were more needed for recipes.

Bilgewater Cutlass
Actives are high mindshare, so culling them in places they weren't doing exciting things seemed to work well. Blade of the Ruined King lost this active and Hextech Gunblade was removed, so Cutlass no longer had a reason to have an active, which was the main reason it existed to begin with.

Catalyst of Aeons

Catalyst offered early access to the Eternity passive previously held by Rod of Ages and Abyssal Mask. With Rod's removal and Mask's update, the Eternity passive is gone and Catalyst no longer has a role to fill.

Runes[]

		Conqueror
	Streamlining Conqueror's role as a damage-oriented rune by shifting its power from sustain to Adaptive Force.
		ADAPTIVE FORCE PER STACK : [1.7 - 4.2 (levels 1-18), 20.4 - 50.4 at max stacks] ⇒ 2 - 5 (levels 1-18), 24 - 60 at max stacks HEALING AT MAX STACKS : [15% (8% for ranged champions)] ⇒ 9% (6% for ranged champions)

		Legend: Bloodline
	Toning back the overall sustain of Legend: Bloodline as its life steal was dominating the choice structure within the Precision tree and having a bigger impact on rune and item builds than a minor rune should, allowing champs to delay or altogether forego sustain purchases.
		MAXIMUM LEGEND STACKS : [20 stacks (12% life steal)] ⇒ 15 stacks (9% life steal)

		Ravenous Hunter
	Similar to Bloodline and Conqueror, lowering the overall amount of free sustain within the rune system to open up more choices within the rune and item systems.
		HEALING : [Heal for 1.5% (+2.5% per Bounty Hunter stack) of the damage dealt by your abilities, on-hit effects and items] ⇒ 1% Omnivamp (+2% per Bounty Hunter stack)

		Presence of Mind
	Presence of Mind's permanent stats were single-handedly solving resource issues. We're reworking the rune to be more in-line with other minor runes and tailored towards champions who prefer sustained combat.
		EFFECT : [After a 1-second delay, champion takedowns restore 20% of your maximum mana or energy and increase maximum mana by 100 or maximum energy by 10, stacking up to 5 times (max +500 mana or +50 energy)] ⇒ Damaging an enemy champion increases your mana regeneration by 1.5-11 (levels 1-18) (80% for ranged) mana per second for 4 seconds. Energy users gain 1.5 energy per second instead. Takedowns restore 15% of your maximum mana or energy.

		Transcendence
	Updating Transcendence to still provide for spell-happy casters and anyone else in need of a little boost while fitting into the new uncapped haste system.
		EFFECT : [Gain 10% CDR when you reach level 10. Each percent of CDR exceeding the CDR limit is converted to an adaptive bonus] ⇒ Gain bonuses upon reaching the following levels: LEVEL 5 +5 ability haste; LEVEL 8 +5 ability haste; LEVEL 11 On champion takedown, reduce the remaining cooldown of basic abilities by 20%.

		Cosmic Insight
	Similar to Transcendence, Cosmic Insight has been updated to function in the new haste system. The rune is now more streamlined to focus on item haste and summoner spell haste to reduce some of the low-cost haste in the rune system.
		COOLDOWN REDUCTION No longer increases your CDR cap or grants CDR ITEM HASTE : [5% active item CDR] ⇒ 10 item haste (applies to all item cooldowns) SUMMONER SPELL HASTE : [5% summoner spell CDR] ⇒ 15 summoner spell haste

		Ingenious Hunter
	Updating Ingenious Hunter values to work with the haste system as well as broadening its use cases to all items with cooldowns so it should feel a little more usable than before.
		INGENUITY : [Reduce the cooldown of item actives by 15% (+5% per Bounty Hunter stack)] ⇒ Gain 10 item haste (+5 per Bounty Hunter stack). Item haste affects ALL item cooldowns, not just actives.

	Ability Haste Rune Stat
	The CDR rune stat had to scale up over time to avoid letting champions reach the cap too quickly. Now that we're using ability haste, it gets to provide more immediate benefit.
		STAT GAIN : [+1-10% CDR (levels 1-18)] ⇒ 8 ability haste

		Time Warp Tonic
	Small clarity update to Time Warp Tonic as the cooldown on consumables was occasionally confusing to players for a minor rune.
		PACE YOURSELF No longer puts the consumable on a short cooldown. If consumables are stacked, the instant restoration is applied after the duration of the initial consumable ends.

Preseason Champion Adjustments[]

		Caitlyn Headshot damage from crit chance decreased.
	The math behind this is super gross, but the gist is that Headshot's bonus damage scales off Infinity Edge's crit damage in a way that completely ignored preseason's systemic crit damage reduction. We're baking that systemic change into Headshot's calculations, though Cait is still arguably buffed relative to other marksmen since new IE's greater maximum crit damage increase washes out most of this nerf at full build.
		Passive - Headshot HEADSHOT DAMAGE FROM LEVELS : 50/75/100% AD (levels 1/7/13) (unchanged) HEADSHOT DAMAGE FROM CRIT CHANCE : [ (1.25 * (100 + Half your bonus Critical Damage percent) * Critical Chance)% AD] ⇒ (1.25 * (87.5 + Half your bonus Critical Damage percent) * Critical Chance)% AD

		Jhin Passive crit damage reduction and crit-to-AD conversion decreased
	We still want Jhin's crits to feel noticeably different from his non-crits, so we're nerfing the AD he gets from crit chance instead of his crit damage.
		Passive - Whisper CRIT DAMAGE REDUCTION : [25% (crits deal 150% AD)] ⇒ 14% (crits still deal 150% AD) CRIT CHANCE TO AD CONVERSION : [40%] ⇒ 30%

		Senna Passive crit damage reduction and crit chance per 20 souls decreased. R now collects Mist Wraiths on cast.
	Bringing Senna into the crit system by having her crits happen less, but hit even stronger than before.
		Passive - Absolution CRIT DAMAGE REDUCTION : [35% (crits deal 130% AD)] ⇒ 14% (crits deal 150% AD) CRIT CHANCE PER 20 SOULS : [15%] ⇒ 10% R - Dawning Shadow PICKUP : Now collects Mist Wraiths. Mist Wraiths still only spawn near Senna.

		Tryndamere Passive crit chance flattened.
	Making sure Tryndamere doesn't waste stats at max Fury with his crit build.
		Passive - Battle Fury CRIT CHANCE PER FURY POINT : [0.35/0.4/0.45/0.5% (levels 1/6/11/16)] ⇒ 0.4%

		Yasuo Passive now converts crit strike chance above 100% to bonus AD.
	Now that the crit system offers more interesting options and comes in 20% increments, we wanted to make sure Yasuo wasn't wasting stats or getting locked out of exciting items because of his passive.
		Passive - Way of the Wanderer OVERCAPPED Critical strike chance above 100% is converted into 0.5 bonus AD per 1% additional critical strike chance. (Reminder: Way of the Wanderer doubles crit chance from other sources).

		Yone Passive now converts crit strike chance above 100% to bonus AD.
	Now that the crit system offers more interesting options and comes in 20% increments, we wanted to make sure Yone wasn't wasting stats or getting locked out of exciting items because of his passive.
		Passive - Way of the Hunter OVERCAPPED Critical strike chance above 100% is converted into 0.5 bonus AD per 1% additional critical strike chance. (Reminder: Way of the Wanderer doubles crit chance from other sources).

		Akali Q cost decreased later.
	Adjusting Akali for the loss of Hextech Gunblade and Presence of Mind's increased Energy pool.
		Q - Five Point Strike COST : [120/115/110/105/100 energy] ⇒ 120/110/100/90/80 energy

Katarina
Passive, E, and R now apply on-hit effects. R now deals hybrid damage and scales with attack speed.

With the loss of Gunblade and the lack of hybrid damage among Mythics, Katarina needed help to keep her identity as an assassin in the new item system. We're helping her adapt to the new shop by further differentiating AD and AP Katarina builds, adding new scaling hooks that let her access the on-hit system. The Katarina you know and love is still here, but without Gunblade dictating her build, her daggers might not look the same every time you see her.

Passive - Voracity

ON-HIT Dagger slash applies on-hit effects

E - Shunpo

ON-HIT Applies on-hit effects

R - Death Lotus
Reminder: Kat throws 15 daggers per ult.

MAGIC DAMAGE : [25/37.5/50 (+19% AP) (+22% bonus AD) per dagger] ⇒ 25/37.5/50 (+19% AP) per dagger

PHYSICAL DAMAGE 15% (+9.9% attack speed) bonus AD per dagger

ON-HIT Each dagger applies on-hit effects at 25% efficiency

		Kayle Passive bonus attack speed now scales with AP.
	The landscape around Kayle is shifting dramatically and AP Kayle in particular may take a while to find replacements for previous favorites like Hextech Gunblade. We're lending AP builds some aid and ensuring that both forms of Kayle can hyperscale into late game.
		Passive - Divine Ascent BONUS ATTACK SPEED : [6% per Enrage stack] ⇒ 6% (+2% AP) per Enrage stack

		Ornn Masterworks now upgrade Mythics. Ornn now gains increased bonus health in addition to armor and magic resist. Bonus defenses now increase per Masterwork he creates.
	We're tying Ornn's Masterwork system into the Mythic system, opening up build diversity for both him and his allies by ensuring everyone can get an upgrade no matter their build. We're also giving Ornn some smithy power now that he only gets to upgrade one of his own items.
		Passive - Living Forge FORGEABLE ITEMS : [Curated List] ⇒ All Mythic items MASTERWORK UPGRADE VALUE : [Dependent on item] ⇒ ~1000 gold MASTERWORK LIMIT : [2 for Ornn, 1 for allies] ⇒ 1 for Ornn and allies (since Ornn is still subject to the 1 Mythic limit) STAT BONUS : [Ornn gains an additional 10% bonus armor and magic resistance] ⇒ Ornn gains an additional 10% bonus health, armor, and magic resistance CALLOUSED HANDS Ornn gains an additional 4% bonus health, armor, and magic resistance for each Mythic item he upgrades into a Masterwork

Viktor
Hex Core removed; Viktor now upgrades his abilities by earning champion takedowns and last-hits. E damage increased. Mana growth increased.

Making Viktor embrace and engage with the new itemization system while also giving him a bit more oomph now that his Hex Core isn't there to amp him up.

Base Stats

MANA GROWTH : [25] ⇒ 45

Passive - Glorious Evolution

HEX CORE Viktor no longer starts the game with an upgradable Hex Core.

HARVEST Viktor harvests 1 Hex Fragments from minion and monster kills, 5 from large minion kills, and 25 from champion takedowns. He can spend 100 Hex Fragments to upgrade a basic ability. Once all three basic abilities have been upgraded, Chaos Storm is upgraded automatically.

E - Death Ray

LASER RATIO : [60%] ⇒ 70%

AFTERSHOCK RATIO : [70%] ⇒ 80%

	Champion Mana Adjustments
	Between mana changes to items like Tear, Sheen, Lich Bane, and the lack of mana on most Mythic items, we're giving the following champions a +20 increase to mana growth:
		Champions Amumu Anivia Camille Cassiopeia Cho'Gath Corki Darius Ekko Ezreal Fiora Fizz Gangplank Hecarim Irelia Jax Kassadin Malphite Nasus Ornn Ryze Skarner Sylas Twisted Fate Udyr Vi Viktor Volibear Wukong Xin Zhao Yorick Zilean

Other Champion Changes[]

		Brand
	While our last changes helped bring Brand back into the midlane, he's a little too strong in Average play for both mid and support. Dampening down his early game damage to bring him back in line.
		Passive - Blaze MARKED EXPLOSION DAMAGE : [10-14% (levels 1-9)] ⇒ 10-14% (levels 1-17) E - Conflagration COOLDOWN : [10/9/8/7/6 seconds] ⇒ 12/11/10/9/8 seconds

		Amumu
	Similar to Brand, we're focusing on knocking down some of the mummy's power in Average play by pulling back on some of his durability.
		Base Stats HEALTH GROWTH : [84] ⇒ 80 ARMOR : [33] ⇒ 30

		Elise
	Opening up Elise's build diversity with the new system.
		Q - Venomous Bite ON-HIT Now applies on-hit effects

Seraphine

We're pushing the distinction between mid and support Seraphine. Mid Sera, who will be higher level throughout the game, will have better access to scaling damage via the Passive and Q changes and can now use E more comfortably for waveclear when needed. Support Sera won't be able to hit those same levels or damage numbers, but will still be able to lean on E-max to provide consistent CC for her team.

Base Stats

BASE MANA REGEN : [10] ⇒ 8

Passive - Stage Presence

NOTE RATIO : [7.5% AP] ⇒ 6/7/8/9% AP (levels 1/6/11/16)

Q - High Note

DAMAGE : [55/65/75/85/95 (+55% AP)] ⇒ 55/70/85/100/115 (+40/45/50/55/60% AP)

E - Beat Drop

BASE DAMAGE : [60/85/110/135/160] ⇒ 60/80/100/120/140

DAMAGE TO MINIONS : [60/70/80/90/100%] ⇒ 100%

Twitch
Deadly Venom damage and W slow now scale with AP. Contaminate's AP scaling now deals magic damage.

Following up a prior buff that didn't actually put AP Twitch anywhere near the mark of playability. These changes are geared toward a playstyle of quickly stacking Deadly Venom and detonating it, then rat-tailing it out to reset. It'll scale worse than AD Twitch (who isn't sacrificing anything for these changes, by the way) and have less explosive openers with Spray and Pray than crit-based versions, but is hopefully an exciting alternative option for Twitch players.

Passive - Deadly Venom

DAMAGE RATIO 3% AP damage per second, per stack (max 108% AP for 6 stacks over 6 seconds)

W - Venom Cask

SLOW RATIO 6% AP

E - Contaminate

AP SCALING DAMAGE : [33.3% AP physical damage per Deadly Poison stack (max 200% AP for 6 stacks)] ⇒ 33.3% AP magic damage per Deadly Poison stack (max 200% AP for 6 stacks)

		Volibear Passive now scales with AP. E deals more damage to minions late.
	With AP fighter items coming into the game we're polishing this bear's AP playstyle to be a little more viable. His extended fights and farming should be bumped up enough with these changes for magebear to be a better opt-in option.
		Passive - The Relentless Storm ATTACK SPEED PER STACK : [5%] ⇒ 5% (+4% AP) E - Sky Splitter DAMAGE TO MINIONS : [150/250/350/450/550] ⇒ 150/300/450/600/750

	Incoming Heal Indicator
	We originally billed this as a quality of life change but have seen a bunch of questions, so let's talk about it now. For abilities and effects with delayed healing, it can be hard to know mid-fight how much health you (or your opponent) will get, leading to situations where you back out from a fight you could've won or stay in a fight you're about to lose. This change makes that decision clearer by indicating the amount of incoming heals on champion health bars. We're adjusting the visualization of this effect based on feedback so far (like toning down the brightness of the incoming health to make it easier to distinguish from current health); let us know if you think further changes are needed. In 10.23, we added the indicator for Evelynn's Passive - Demon Shade, Karma's W - Renewal, and Soraka's Q - Starcall heal over time both on herself and when transferred to an ally via W - Astral Infusion. And as a recap, we added the following in 10.22: Seraphine's W - Surround Sound Vladimir's R - Hemoplague, Redemption, and ARAM health packs.

ARAM Balance Changes[]

Some adjustments to ARAM to account for the wider item changes that are happening.

Game Pacing and Gold Income

NEARBY MINION DEATH GOLD : [5 gold] ⇒ 6 gold

AMBIENT GOLD : Increased by 10%

KILL GOLD : Increased by 10%

ALTERNATING CANNON WAVES Cannon minions will spawn on both sides every other wave, starting at wave 3, instead of alternating

GUARDIAN ITEMS SELLBACK GOLD : [40% of original price] ⇒ 70% of original price

GUARDIAN'S HORN DAMAGE REDUCTION : [12] ⇒ 15

GUARDIAN'S BLADE 150 health, 30 attack damage, 15 ability haste

Invisibility Detection

ORACLE'S ELIXIR Removed from the Item Shop

MINION DETECTION : Cannon minions and super minions now each have one charge of a modified Umbral Glaive's Blackout passive: 900 range and 4 seconds of visibility once detected

10.23 Nerfs

SERAPHINE : [Normal] ⇒ -5% damage dealt, +5% damage taken, & -5% healing

Ranked Updates[]

This preseason, we're making a couple updates on the Summoner's Rift Ranked system to make sure the placement process and climb is as informed and intuitive as possible.

First, brand new accounts entering Ranked for the first time will now take into account additional variables to ensure a more accurate original placement.

Next, in order to smooth out progression speed bumps, we're removing promotion series for interdivision transitions. This means that going from division IV to division I for any given rank will be automatic when you reach 100 LP, and any additional LP rolls into the next division. Consequently, demotion protection between divisions will also be removed so that losing a game at 0 LP will result in moving down a division.

Last but not least, we're removing the ability to duo queue at ranks Master and above to highlight competitive prowess and improve matchmaking at the top of the ladder.

League Client Updates[]

Another long list of League Client bugfixes and QoL changes this patch, so we're tucking them into its own section!

Memory leaks should now be fixed in the following areas of the client, providing improved reliability:
- When a player views their profile, or other profiles
- When a player open the personalized offers tab
- When a player visits the TFT party lobby
- When a player visits match history
- When a player visits the clubs tab
- When a player views a hovercard
- When a player visits the TFT hub
- When a player navigates among main tabs
- When a player enters a chat room
- Opening a champion skin chroma
- Every time the social panel is shown (client start up, and after each game)
- When a player opens runes editor (in Champ Select + Collections)
- In Champ Select (fixing a chat service observer leak)
- In Champ Select (premade voice observer leak)
The rune page should now load faster, along with overall rendering improvements
End-of-game screen should no longer freeze when getting back into the client
Summoner spell and ward skin selections have been reimplemented to reduce memory leaks. The associated animations in champ select have been removed as part of this work.

Vladimir's R - Hemoplague incoming Health-gain indicator now properly appears even when non-champion targets are affected
