Hi! A certain king has arrived, and so has another patch! Here in 11.2, we’ve made a couple changes based around healing. First, we brought the spice and everything nice for Soraka; with the last buff to Grievous Wounds, she should now be in a better spot to wish your pain away. On the other hand, folks like Aatrox and Olaf have been healing a bit too well, becoming true terrors when matched with the right items and runes. To change this, we’ve shifted their healing to be tapped straight from their kits— true healing is on the inside, right? As for items, we spruced up tank Mythics outside of Sunfire, the crowd favorite— although it's a name we all know and love, we're hoping to open the gateway to more item diversity, depending on the game state. And that’s it! We’ll see you in the next one. In the TFT world, the Festival of the Beasts mid-set has arrived! Take this portal to TFT patch notes to join in on the festivities. Tricia "mom cat" Tan Hanna "shio shoujo" Woo Mid-Patch Updates 1/21/2021 Ranked MMR Bugfixes We've fixed a Ranked bug causing MMR gains/losses to be too low. This fix also improves LP gains.
Karthus Q - LAY WASTE BUGFIX Fixed a bug where Karthus was unable to buffer casts of Q - Lay Waste while on cooldown Kog'Maw Q - CAUSTIC SPITTLE BUGFIX Kog'Maw no longer permanently loses bonus attack speed from Q - Caustic Spittle after dying Rengar Q - SAVAGERY BUGFIX Fixed a bug where Rengar was not gaining attack speed after using his empowered Q Viego PASSIVE - SOVEREIGN'S DOMAIN BUGFIX When Viego possessed Battle Queen Katarina, her daggers are no longer invisible Patch Highlights Ruined Shyvana, Ruined Karma, Ruined Draven, Shan Hai Scrolls Jhin, Shan Hai Scrolls Cho'Gath, Shan Hai Scrolls Neeko, Shan Hai Scrolls Nautilus, and Lunar Beast Viego will be available on January 21, 2021.

Viego The Ruined King Bring your darkest desires to life with Viego in patch 11.2!
Viego Abilities Rundown
Ruination | Season 2021 Cinematic
Viego Champion Bio Akali Q cost increased later. Without her trusty Gunblade, Akali has recovered well, wielding several of the AP Mythics to her advantage instead (Night Harvester, Rocketbelt, Riftmaker). This has put her in a stronger spot than we’d anticipated, so we’re toning her down by reverting her buff from 10.23.
Q - Five Point Strike COST 120/110/100/90/80 energy ⇒ 120/115/110/105/100 energy Azir Q cooldown decreased. Azir lost the cooldowns on Nashor’s Tooth and thus, some of the wind beneath his wings. We’re giving him a lift by returning some of it directly into his kit.
Q - Conquering Sands COOLDOWN 15/13/11/9/7 seconds ⇒ 14/12/10/8/6 seconds Caitlyn AD growth increased. Caitlyn’s a bit behind the curve amidst her peers, so we’re taking another shot to keep her hot on the trail.
Base Stats ATTACK DAMAGE GROWTH 2.88 ⇒ 3.3 Darius Passive Noxian Might bonus AD decreased. Darius has found a new friend in Stridebreaker, which allows him to execute his combo while quickly stacking his passive. We’re trimming some bonus stats from his passive to match its new consistency.
Passive - Hemorrhage NOXIAN MIGHT BONUS ATTACK DAMAGE 30-230 ⇒ 20-205 Dr. Mundo Q health refund on hit and on kill increased. E bonus damage increased. R health regen increased. Dr. Mundo has been struggling in top lane and the jungle. Giving him a bit more survivability and trading potential, and increasing his signature healing to make Mundo more slurp Mundo.
Q - Infected Cleaver HEALTH REFUND ON HIT 40% ⇒ 50% HEALTH REFUND ON KILL 80% ⇒ 100% E - Masochism BONUS DAMAGE 3/3.5/4/4.5/5 of his maximum health ⇒ 4/4.5/5/5.5/6% of his maximum health R - Sadism HEALTH REGEN 50/75/100% maximum health ⇒ 60/85/110% maximum health Elise Spider Q damage decreased later. With new items at her disposal and the buff on her Q in patch 10.23, Elise has been scaling too well. Time to wash the spider out.
Q - Venomous Bite DAMAGE 70/110/150/190/230 ⇒ 70/105/140/175/210 Ivern E shield ratio decreased. The nerf to Triggerseed’s AP ratio in patch 11.1 was only reflected in Ivern’s tooltips. We fixed it so it actually affects his shield now (oops).
E - Triggerseed SHIELD RATIO 90% AP ⇒ 80% AP LeBlanc Base health growth increased. Q cost decreased later. LeBlanc may be all smoke and mirrors, but right now, she’s not fooling anyone. We’re helping this Deceiver by making it less punishing when she uses her abilities and when she engages in mid- to late- game.
Base Stats HEALTH GROWTH 92 ⇒ 97 Q - Sigil of Malice COST 50/60/70/80/90 mana ⇒ 50/55/60/65/70 mana Maokai E cost increased later; damage ratio decreased. Maokai support hit a growth spurt in the new season, and his enemies are feeling a bit… sapped. Making it so bushes around Maokai aren’t as scary.
E - Sapling Toss COST 60/65/70/75/80 mana ⇒ 60/70/80/90/100 mana DAMAGE RATIO 1% per 100 AP ⇒ 0.8% per 100 AP Nocturne Q and R cooldowns decreased. Nocturne is falling behind his jungle pals, so it's time to give his shadows, Paranoia, and all around darkness some more stage time.
Q - Duskbringer COOLDOWN 10 seconds ⇒ 8 seconds R - Paranoia COOLDOWN 150/125/100 seconds ⇒ 140/115/90 seconds Nunu & Willump Base movement speed and health decreased. Nunu & Willump currently get to have their tank and eat their enemies too. We’re trimming some of their baseline stats so item decisions carry more weight and give them appropriate downsides as well.
Base Stats MOVEMENT SPEED 345 ⇒ 340 HEALTH 570 ⇒ 540 Aatrox E’s self-healing now increases during R. R self-healing decreased. Champions like Aatrox and Olaf are able to reach a scary state with massive burst healing from items (Goredrinker and Ravenous Hydra) and runes (Conqueror and Ravenous Hunter). The moments where they feel untouchable aren’t healthy, so we’re shifting their healing to be sourced more from their kit rather than from systems.
E - Umbral Dash newIT DOESN’T END HERE Umbral Dash’s self-healing now increases to 26/32/38/44/50% during R - World Ender R - World Ender SELF-HEALING 50/75/100% ⇒ 30/45/60% Olaf W life steal increased; healing amplification decreased. Buff axe-throwing buddy gets a similar adjustment to Aatrox. These changes should also tone down Olaf’s overall power, since he’s been chop-chopping down the competition.
W - Vicious Strikes LIFE STEAL 14/16/18/20/22% ⇒ 16/18/20/22/24% HEALING AMPLIFICATION 0-50% (based on missing health) ⇒ 0-33% (based on missing health) Senna Base AS ratio increased. Passive non-kill Mist Wraith drop chance and gold from Mist Wraith increased. Q healing and damage ratio increased. Aiming to support support Senna with more gold so that she can buy more items. We’re also giving her Q and attack speed stronger scaling across builds, which should open up more itemization options.
Base Stats ATTACK SPEED RATIO 0.2 ⇒ 0.3 Passive - Absolution NON-KILL MIST WRAITH DROP CHANCE 22% ⇒ 28% GOLD FROM MIST WRAITH 3 ⇒ 8 Q - Piercing Darkness HEALING RATIO 25% AP ⇒ 40% AP DAMAGE RATIO 40% AD ⇒ 50% AD KRAK ON, THEN Senna’s Q on enemy champions now adds a stack on Kraken Slayer (max one stack). Shaco Passive damage increased. Leaning just a little bit closer! into Shaco's exciting and unique points of play for stronger jungle clearing and assassination buffs.
Passive - Backstab DAMAGE 10-25 (level 1-18) ⇒ 20-35 (level 1-18) Soraka Q total Rejuvenation heal increased later. W heal and heal ratio increased. We know you’ve been licking your (grievous) wounds since its buff last patch, so we’re increased Soraka’s heal power all around.
Q - Starcall TOTAL REJUVENATION HEAL 50/60/70/80/90 ⇒ 50/65/80/95/110 W - Astral Infusion HEAL 80/115/150/185/220 ⇒ 90/125/160/195/230 HEAL RATIO 60% AP ⇒ 70% AP Trundle Q bonus damage ratio increased. W bonus attack speed increased. Helping the Troll King get back on his feet in the jungle and top lane, with some added power to his clear and trading.
Q - Chomp BONUS DAMAGE RATIO 10/20/30/40/50% AD ⇒ 15/25/35/45/55% AD W - Frozen Domain BONUS ATTACK SPEED 20/40/60/80/100% ⇒ 30/50/70/90/110% Varus Base mana growth increased. R cooldown decreased early. Varus is a straight shooter but he’s been behind the curve, especially with builds that aren’t attack speed heavy. Giving him a nudge up.
Base Stats MANA GROWTH 33 ⇒ 40 R - Chain of Corruption COOLDOWN 120/90/60 seconds ⇒ 100/80/60 seconds Zoe W minion spell shard drops updated. With a new item landscape, it's time for us to add some pizazz to the pool of minion drops from Zoe’s Spell Thief. In doing this, we also removed Redemption because it offered frustrating power across the map when dropped.
W - Spell Thief MINION SPELL SHARD DROPS NOW INCLUDE Randuin’s Omen, Locket of the Iron Solari, Turbo Chemtank, Shurelya's Battlesong, Youmuu's Ghostblade, Goredrinker, Stridebreaker, Prowler's Claw MINION SPELL SHARD DROPS NO LONGER INCLUDE Redemption ITEM SHARD BUGFIXES Casting Zoe's W - Spell Thief with a shard of an item in her inventory no longer causes that actual item to go on cooldown. Additionally, using an item with a damaging passive right after using its shard no longer causes the second instance to deal 0 damage. Items Essence Reaver
Essence Reaver has been a little weak, so we’re giving it a bump up for mana-hungry champions. SPELLBLADE MANA RESTORE 3% of maximum mana ⇒ 40% of mana from damage dealt from Spellblade (before damage reduction) Galeforce
Galeforce is outperforming the other marksmen Mythics, both in the “crit chance” space and for champions who can flex into Lethality. As such, we’re pulling back some of the power we gave Galeforce in earlier patches. CLOUDBURST COOLDOWN 60 seconds ⇒ 90 seconds (applies to Ornn's Typhoon as well) Hextech Rocketbelt
While Rocketbelt's gap closing ability is its intended unique factor, it shouldn’t be the only source for engages every game. SUPERSONIC BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED 50% for 2 seconds ⇒ 30% for 1.5 seconds Imperial Mandate
Despite a recent trip to the patch notes in 10.25, Imperial is still a strong item for solo lanes and champions with multiple CC abilities. Our priority here is to move it out of the hands of solo laners and to simplify its confusing trigger condition. COORDINATED FIRE COOLDOWN Applies when ally consumes the mark ⇒ initial application of slow/immobilize Kraken Slayer
Kraken Slayer is extremely powerful on champion abilities that churn out on-hits. Those abilities tend to have on-hit modifiers for this exact purpose, so Kraken Slayer will now leverage those modifiers of the following champion abilities:
Aphelios Severum Q - Onslaught Katarina R - Death Lotus Urgot W - Purge Shurelya's Battlesong
With the cost reduction to Chemtank, the niches for Shurelya’s and Chemtank are getting too close for comfort, so we’re differentiating the two while making it more suitable for enchanters and AP users. HEALTH 350 ⇒ 200 removedBONUS MOVEMENT SPEED Shurelya’s no longer grants 5% movement speed newABILITY POWER Shurelya’s now grants 40 AP BASE MANA REGEN 50% ⇒ 100% BUILD PATH Kindlegem + Faerie Charm + Winged Moonplate + 650 gold ⇒ Kindlegem + Bandleglass Mirror + 750g Gargoyle Stoneplate
Given the premium price you pay for a Stoneplate, it’s not quite powerful enough, as it's very comparable to its cheaper Legendary competitors. We’re buffing up its durability stats to help you soak up all of the aggro. FORTIFY BONUS ARMOR AND MR 3% (max 15%) ⇒ 5% (max 25%) Lethality Items
We’re lowering the cost of some of the utility Lethality items to create a new division of 2600 gold AD items, both for AD supports and traditional assassins.
Umbral Glaive TOTAL COST 2800 gold ⇒ 2600 gold ATTACK DAMAGE 55 ⇒ 50 BUILD PATH Serrated Dirk + Caulfield's Warhammer + 600 gold ⇒ Serrated Dirk + Long Sword + Long Sword + 800 gold Serpent’s Fang TOTAL COST 2800 gold ⇒ 2600 gold ATTACK DAMAGE 60 ⇒ 55 Chempunk Chainsword TOTAL COST 2700 gold ⇒ 2600 gold HEALTH 200 ⇒ 150 Marksman Legendary Items
We’re adjusting some of the stats on marksman Legendary items so that they give more attack speed than their components.
Phantom Dancer BUILD PATH Zeal + Dagger + Dagger + 850 gold ⇒ Zeal + Dagger + Dagger + 950 gold ATTACK SPEED 40% ⇒ 45% Runaan’s Hurricane BUILD PATH Zeal + Dagger + Dagger + 850 gold ⇒ Zeal + Dagger + Dagger + 950 gold ATTACK SPEED 40% ⇒ 45% Tank Mythics
Sunfire Aegis has been wildly popular in contrast to other tank Mythic options, even though they seem similarly powerful in terms of win rate. The hope is that by making a separate, lower price tier for the other tank Mythic items (with each also getting a kiss and a buff), they will have more occasions where they’ll be purchased by support tanks and junglers.
Sunfire Aegis MYTHIC PASSIVE 5 ability haste per Legendary item ⇒ 5% tenacity and slow resist per Legendary item Frostfire Gauntlet TOTAL COST 3200 gold ⇒ 2800 gold BUILD PATH Bami's Cinder + Null-Magic Mantle + Chain Vest + 850 gold ⇒ Bami's Cinder + Cloth Armor + Null-Magic Mantle + 950 gold ABILITY HASTE 15 ⇒ 20 ARMOR 50 ⇒ 25 Rimeforged Grasp (Ornn Upgrade) ARMOR 65 ⇒ 40 MAGIC RESIST 35 ⇒ 40 ABILITY HASTE 20 ⇒ 25 Turbo Chemtank TOTAL COST 3200 gold ⇒ 2800 gold BUILD PATH Bami's Cinder + Cloth Armor + Negatron Cloak + 900 old ⇒ Bami's Cinder + Cloth Armor + Null-Magic Mantle + 950 gold MAGIC RESIST 50 ⇒ 25 ABILITY HASTE 15 ⇒ 20 MYTHIC PASSIVE 5% tenacity and slow resist per Legendary item ⇒ 5 ability haste per Legendary item Turbocharged Hexperiment (Ornn Upgrade) MAGIC RESIST 65 ⇒ 40 ARMOR 35 ⇒ 40 ABILITY HASTE 20 ⇒ 25 Runes Ravenous Hunter
Ravenous Hunter has been the pick of the Domination litter while also performing slightly above average, so it’s in a good spot for a small nerf. OMNIVAMP 2% per Bounty Hunter stack (maximum 11%) ⇒ 1.7% per Bounty Hunter stack (maximum 9.5%) In-Game Shop Updates and Bugfixes
