League of Legends news » Patch 7.24b notes

Top Lane

With the removal of Fervor, and Summon Aery being particularly good on poke top laners, the top lane landscape has been rough for fighters. We're buffing up some of the worst-hit fighters, giving the Tiamat line some love, making Giant Slayer less effective against fighter item builds, and bringing down certain ranged top laners who abuse the new poke masteries like Arcane Comet or Summon Aery.

Kayn

Yeah, yeah, Kayn isn't a toplaner. He's got similar issues as other fighters on this list, though, so we're lumping him in for solidarity.

Lethality Items

We added 2 lethality to the Serrated Dirk items when preseason began, but it turns out we probably didn't need to. This is a hit to Pantheon, by the way, in case you were CTRL+F'ing him.

Mid Lane

The mid landscape is in flux, thanks to preseason changes to runes and base magic resist. That's left a few champions well above or below the curve, and we're taking this moment to hit some of the more notable outliers.

Zoe

---

Q - Paddle Star

PADDLE JUMP When Zoe casts R - Portal Jump while a Paddle Star is active, the star's travel range now changes when Zoe reappears at the cast location, rather than as soon as Portal Jump is cast. EXCUSE ME? The timing of Zoe's Q - Q - R combo is less forgiving

Bot Lane

The damage being thrown around bot lane is a bit too high for our liking, and a large part of that is the combination of sorcery poke and the all-in strength of lethality marksmen. On the poke end, Miss Fortune is spamming Make it Rain for Arcane Comet procs a bit too enthusiastically—rain is fine, but right now it's a downpour. For all-ins, the biggest non-lethaltiy offender is Leona, and the lethality changes we mentioned above cover the marksman side of the issue.

Rammus

Rammus

(Sorry, Rammus... you didn't fit into any of the other sections. Hope that's...OK.)

We added the new innate bonus attack speed stat as another way to tune champions (especially junglers), but in the case of Rammus, his ganks are strong enough that he doesn't need the early boost to his clear speed.

---

Base stats

removedINNATE BONUS ATTACK SPEED Rammus no longer starts the game with 15% bonus attack speed

Sorcery Runes

The Sorcery path offers too much early power. We're hitting its damage (twice, if you take Scorch) as well as the mana sustain it provides.

Sorcery Path Bonuses

SORCERY + ANY SECONDARY 15 attack damage or 25 ability power, adaptive ⇒ 12 attack damage or 20 ability power, adaptive INSPIRATION + SORCERY 16 attack damage or 27 ability power, adaptive ⇒ 13 attack damage or 22 ability power, adaptive

Manaflow Band

COOLDOWN 60 seconds ⇒ 75 seconds

Scorch

DAMAGE 30-60 (at levels 1-18) ⇒ 20-60 (at levels 1-18)

Tooltips Note

Since this isn't a full-fledged patch, ability and item tooltips will be out of date for a while. Sorry!
