Patch 11.12

Overview

Patch 11.12

We’ve got a light patch, focusing on champ adjustments this go-round (11.13’s going to have a big chunk of systems work). This means some love for Aphelios and some of his unpopular weapon combinations, and nerfs to Pro outliers (Renekton, Kai’Sa). Then the spotlight’s on everyone’s favorite, definitely trustworthy, definitely purple doctor. His appearance may seem revived, but we’re not too sure if the same can be expected of his patients.

If Mundo doesn’t get you, then we’ll see ya in the next one!

Aphelios
Base magic resist and AD growth increased. Severum’s maximum number of attacks decreased; on-hit damage increased; healing from basic attacks decreased; healing from abilities increased. Crescendum’s mini Chakram damage decreased; sentry damage increased.

Aphelios’ changelist is a whole lot of numbers, so we’ll try and break it down. First and foremost: yes, it’s an Aphelios buff! He’s been in a slump in terms of win rate and Pro presence, and could use a helping hand to get back on his feet. To do this, we’re buffing his base stats and weapon combinations that have fallen out of favor, while pulling power from the combos that have emerged as clear favorites. By upping the reward he gets from using Infernum and Severum as off-hand weapons, he should feel more well-rounded and prepared to take down his enemies, no matter what’s in his immediate arsenal.

Base Stats

MAGIC RESIST : [26] ⇒ 30

AD GROWTH : [2.4] ⇒ 3

Severum, the Scythe Pistol

MAXIMUM NUMBER OF ATTACKS : [6 (+1 per 33% bonus attack speed)] ⇒ 6 (+1 per 50% bonus attack speed)

ON-HIT DAMAGE : [10-30 (+21-30% bonus AD) (level 1/3/5/7/11/13)] ⇒ 10-40 (+20-35% bonus AD) (level 1/3/5/7/11/13)

HEALING FROM BASIC ATTACKS : [3-20% (level 1-18)] ⇒ 3-10% (level 1-18)

HEALING FROM ABILITIES : [3-20% (level 1-18)] ⇒ 9-30% (level 1-18)

Crescendum, the Chakram

MINI CHAKRAM DAMAGE : [24%-164% AD (scales non-linearly with 1-20 mini Chakrams)] ⇒ 15%-138.5% AD (scales nonlinearly with 1-20 mini Chakrams)

SENTRY DAMAGE : [25-85 (+35-50% bonus AD)] ⇒ 31-100 (+40-60% bonus AD)

		Draven Q bonus damage increased.
	With less early game AD from his core build than in previous seasons, Draven’s been less able to… well, Draven. Sharpening up his blades so he can keep up with his adoring fans.
		Q - Spinning Axe BONUS DAMAGE : [35/40/45/50/55 (+65/75/85/95/105% bonus AD)] ⇒ 40/45/50/55/60 (+70/80/90/100/110% bonus AD)

		Gnar Base attack damage decreased.
	Baby beast is still throwing temper tantrums, and his threat and harass potential can be too much to handle. We’re pulling back some of his early lane power to give his enemies a chance to catch their breath (and maybe even Gnar’s boomerang).
		Base Stats ATTACK DAMAGE : [59] ⇒ 57

		Hecarim Base armor increased. Q damage ratio increased.
	We weren’t kidding—Hecarim needed help last patch, and he still does now. We’re doubling down on the buff to his Q and reverting part of his 11.9 nerf. Time to run free, horsey.
		Base Stats ARMOR : [32] ⇒ 35 Q - Rampage DAMAGE RATIO : [75% bonus AD] ⇒ 85% bonus AD

		Illaoi Base mana growth increased.
	With a smaller mana pool than other fighters, Illaoi often runs low on mana in later phases of the game. This leaves her between a rock and a hard place, where she has to carefully balance when to use mana to push faster and when she’s ready to take on challengers. To solve this, we’re increasing her mana scaling.
		Base Stats MANA GROWTH : [40] ⇒ 50

		Jarvan IV W cooldown decreased.
	Jarvan tends to lose steam early on in a fight, so we’re giving him more incentives to stay in the battle and continue protecting the faithful.
		W - Golden Aegis COOLDOWN : [12 seconds] ⇒ 9 seconds

		Kai'Sa Q cooldown increased early.
	This fearless predator has been making Pro play her prey. We’re looking to draw back some of her early game power by curbing her ability to control waves and giving her opponents more opportunities to punish her when her Q is down.
		Q - Icathian Rain COOLDOWN : [8/7.5/7/6.5/6 seconds] ⇒ 10/9/8/7/6 seconds

		Malphite W on-hit damage increased.
	Malphite’s been feeling more rock-soft than solid. Combined with Bramble Vest’s nerf in patch 11.11, he’s hit rock bottom. To buff up his trading in lane, we’re amping up the thunder in his claps so that he can hit like the ton of bricks he is.
		W - Thunderclap ON-HIT DAMAGE : [10/20/30/40/50 (+10% armor)] ⇒ 15/25/35/45/55 (+15% armor)

		Rammus W base bonus armor increased. R cooldown decreased.
	Everyone knows Rammus and Bramble Vest are best friends, so it should come as no surprise that he’s been feeling prickly after Bramble’s 11.11 nerf. To mend fences, we’re putting more armor in the armordillo and letting him slam down more often, so that he can continue running rings around his competition.
		W - Defensive Ball Curl BASE BONUS ARMOR : [30] ⇒ 40 R - Soaring Slam COOLDOWN : [130/110/90 seconds] ⇒ 110/95/80 seconds

		Nasus Passive life steal decreased.
	With the patch 11.11 buff to Divine Sunderer, Nasus has been a top dog (literally) in Average play, where he’s able to stay in lane and farm until the cows come home. We’re targeting this by reducing the amount of life steal he can get when he has easier access to minions.
		Passive - Soul Eater LIFE STEAL : [12/18/24% (level 1/7/13)] ⇒ 10/16/22% (level 1/7/13)

		Renekton Q non-champion healing reduced.
	This croc has been up and down the block in Pro play. With resourceless sustain and waveclear, he’s able to wade into lane and neutralize most matchups, then force fights by jumping on a victim with his point-and-click CC. To address this, we’re scaling back his healing.
		Q - Cull the Meek NON-CHAMPION HEALING : [3/4/5/6/7 (+4% bonus AD)] ⇒ 2/3/4/5/6 (+3% bonus AD) EMPOWERED NON-CHAMPION HEALING : [9/12/15/18/21 (+12% bonus AD)] ⇒ 6/9/12/15/18 (+9% bonus AD)

		Talon W initial damage decreased; and return damage increased.
	Since our 11.10 nerfs, Talon’s settled in well—he’s about as strong as before in Elite play. We’re giving him another tap down by shifting power away from the initial part of his W and slightly lowering its overall scaling. To balance also giving a small boost to the second half of Rake, which is easier to dodge.
		W - Rake INITIAL DAMAGE : [45/60/75/90/105 (+55% bonus AD)] ⇒ 40/50/60/70/80 (+40% bonus AD) RETURN DAMAGE : [45/70/95/120/145 (+70% bonus AD)] ⇒ 50/80/110/140/170 (+80% bonus AD)

		Udyr R cone damage decreased.
	Tank Phoenix Udyr has been rampaging across Pro play. We’re pecking down the damage he gets from tank builds, but compensating for when he wants to go AP bird instead.
		R - Phoenix Stance CONE DAMAGE : [60/110/160/210/260/310 (70% AP)] ⇒ 50/95/140/185/230/275 (80% AP)

		Varus W maximum bonus damage decreased.
	Varus’ buff in patch 11.4 on his W made his Lethality builds especially powerful, so we’re pulling back accordingly.
		W - Blighted Quiver MAXIMUM BONUS DAMAGE FROM TARGET'S MISSING HEALTH : [10.8/14.4/18/21.6/25.2%] ⇒ 9/12/15/18/21%

		Wukong Base damage growth decreased. Q damage ratio decreased.
	Before the buffs to Divine Sunderer and Black Cleaver in patch 11.11, Wukong was already performing well. We knew the boost to his core items could tip him over the edge, but we weren’t sure exactly where he’d land—and now that we do, we’re hoping to directly offset the power that he gained.
		Base Stats ATTACK DAMAGE GROWTH : [4] ⇒ 3.5 Q - Crushing Blow DAMAGE RATIO : [50% bonus AD] ⇒ 45% bonus AD

		Ziggs Q base damage increased later. R missile speed increased.
	Ziggs hasn’t been around much lately, so we’re tossing him a bomb bone by strengthening his Q to spike harder in mid game. More importantly, we’re giving his ult a significant speed buff. This should make it more reliable when casting from long ranges while strengthening his powerful AoE damage in teamfights.
		Q - Bouncing Bomb BASE DAMAGE : [85/130/175/220/265] ⇒ 85/135/185/235/285 R - Mega Inferno Bomb MISSILE SPEED : [1550] ⇒ 2250 (minimum 1.2 seconds travel time)
