This is more of a glorified mid-patch update rather than a full patch, meaning most of the adjustments here are simple balance tweaks, and there aren’t any released skins or new content this time around. There’s also no download required, and changes will be live within a few hours of these notes going live, if you’re reading this hot off the presses (if so, hooray, settle in)! And that’s all we’ve got! Slap on a Pool Party skin or roll around with some Poros today. We’ll see ya next patch. Take this portal if you're looking for [TFT's patch notes](https://na.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/news/game-updates/teamfight-tactics-patch-10-17-notes/)! Hanna “shio shoujo” Woo Tricia "mom cat" Tan Patch Highlights Champions [Aatrox](http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/champions/aatrox/) R Bonus damage ratio increased later. Aatrox is on the fringes of pro play, hanging on for dear life. Since he’s restrained in that MMR, he has room for us to push him into a much better state for all players. R - World Ender BONUS DAMAGE RATIO 0.2/0.25/0.3 attack damage ⇒ 0.2/0.3/0.4 attack damage [Caitlyn](http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/champions/caitlyn/) Base movement speed decreased. Caitlyn's 10.15 buffs put her in a bit too domineering of a place for both professional and regular play. Pulling back on her MS to bring her back in line, though we expect her to remain a strong pick. Base Stats MOVEMENT SPEED 330 ⇒ 325 [Evelynn](http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/champions/evelynn/) Q dart and spike base damage decreased. Our changes last patch gave her a lot of new power in the jungle, so we’re reeling back some of the damage that we gave her earlier in 10.8. Q - Hate Spike DART BASE DAMAGE 30/35/40/45/50 ⇒ 25/30/35/40/45 SPIKE BASE DAMAGE 30/35/40/45/50 ⇒ 25/30/35/40/45 [Gragas](http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/champions/gragas/) Base armor increased. Gragas has been getting thrown around by the jungle, so we’re hoping this change lets him slam right back. With more defense, it should also help out his early game exchanges in the top lane. Base Stats ARMOR 35 ⇒ 38 [Hecarim](http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/champions/hecarim/) E bonus movement speed maximum reduced. Trotting back some of the changes from 10.16, which overshot our expectations, especially with Hecarim players picking up on his synergy with Phase Rush. E - Devastating Charge BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED 25-100% (over the first 3 seconds, with fourth second at maximum value) ⇒ 25-85% (over the first 3 seconds, with fourth second at maximum value) [Kai'Sa](http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/champions/kaisa/) Base AD growth increased. E bonus AS increased later. Kai’Sa is struggling at all levels of play. Giving her a little bit of a supercharge to help her reach her late game potential. Base Stats ATTACK DAMAGE GROWTH 1.7 ⇒ 2.0 E - Supercharge BONUS ATTACK SPEED 40/45/50/55/60% ⇒ 40/50/60/70/80% [Lux](http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/champions/lux/) W shield decreased; mana cost no longer static and increased; fixed a bug where W would apply three times. Lux support, especially with an early shield max, has gained a lot of traction as of late. To curb the oppressive playstyle of just spamming her shield in lane, we’re targeting its power when maxed first, while avoiding hurting her more damage-oriented builds. Also, bugfix for a shieldfix! W - Prismatic Barrier SHIELD 50/75/100/125/150 (+0.3 ability power) ⇒ 45/65/85/105/125 (+0.35 ability power) COST 60 mana ⇒ 60/65/70/75/80 mana TRIPLE SHIELD BUGFIX Fixed a bug that caused Prismatic Barrier’s effect to apply three times at the edge of its cast [Qiyana](http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/cham _[Truncated at 4000 characters — full notes: https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/news/game-updates/patch-10-16b-notes/]_
