Patch 11.15 League of Legends It’s fast approaching and will go into effect on July 21. With this update, lead game designer Jeevun «Jag» Siduh said developers will focus on single queue issues and professional gameplay. The competitive landscape will be affected the most, as most of the heroes on the roster are currently playing in the meta.
Nerfs for Heroes in Patch 11.15
The Hero Deficiencies in this patch range from slight drops in stats to massive changes in numbers. For the professional game, Gwen, Sylas and Viego are the hardest hit. Gwen will get a decrease in her attack speed early in the game. Sylas will now deal less damage with his Q and less healing with his W, and Viego will take a decrease to his base Q damage and additional damage and healing for followers.
The rest of the contractions revolve around champions we don’t usually see in competition. Modifications are minimal, such as Annie Q’s ability ability reduced from 80% to 75%.
hero upgrades
Power-up heroes dominate this patch’s list. Most notable are Blitzcrank, Cassiopeia, and Shyvana. Blitzcrank will get a slight armor upgrade, his Q will take more base damage, and his ability power ratio will be increased to 120%. Cassiopeia’s base damage on her E will also increase by 10 early in the game and 10 late in the game. As for Shyvana, her deceleration and Q ability will receive a 10 boost to her base damage and increased refinement.
In addition to these noticeable changes, we’ll see an improvement in Xayah’s cooldown, especially in W. Kennen also on the list of heroes who will get an improvement in their abilities. His Q will have better base damage and overall his proportions will be improved.
Finally, we’ll see the bug that affected Rumble eliminated and take the opportunity to remind you that many of the changes are designed to compete, so don’t stress too much if your staple appears in the nerfs list, because only a pro can easily notice these changes.
