We’ve got some followup for the recent Season 2 changes to bring some of the more overpowered content in line and give a bump to some things that haven’t seen the adoption that they probably should. Items and runes are still key here - we’ve got nerfs to Deathfire Touch, Gluttonous Greaves, and Voltaic Cyclosword, and some buffs to Stormraider’s Surge and the two new starting items introduced last patch. Lee Sin’s throwing off the weights with limiters removed on his shield and some other modernization changes, and Quinn is heading into the jungle. We’ve also got some behavior updates with termination votes for disrupted games, and improved detection models for text.

Patch Highlights
Rain Shepherd Ivern and PROJECT: Quinn will be available May 13, 2026.
Essence Emporium
The Essence Emporium is back and will run from May 13 to June 10! Along with chromas and other special Emporium content, we’re adding a brand new title—”Big Serious Gamer”—for those that have mountains of BE piled up.
Champions
[Ambessa](https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/champions/ambessa/)
After getting to see the impact of last patch’s ultimate nerfs, they’ve been very effective at increasing counterplay at high skill levels. However, we still see an opportunity to shift some power from jungle into top while promoting a bruiser playstyle. As a result, we’re giving her some better early power, while keeping her jungle clear and general lategame potential the same.
Q - Cunning Sweep / Sundering Slam
- Target Max Health Damage: 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6% ⇒ 4 / 4.5 / 5 / 5.5 / 6%
- Bonus Monster Damage: 125 ⇒ 75
R - Public Execution
- Healing Percentage: 10 / 12.5 / 15% ⇒ 15 / 17.5 / 20%
- Healing Effectiveness vs Monsters: 40%⇒ 25%
[Anivia](https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/champions/anivia/)
The Ice Birb has been strong for quite some time, icing out opponents in top, mid, and support without much build or playstyle differentiation, which is why we’re opting for base stat adjustments. While the change will impact her across roles, we’re targeting her durability to allow for more all-in windows to crack the egg in top lane in particular.
Base Stats
- Base Armor: 21 ⇒ 19
- Armor Growth: 4.5 ⇒ 4.1
[Ashe](https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/champions/ashe/)
As one of our premier utility ADCs, Ashe is pumping out a bit too much damage. We’re giving her a minor nerf to her Q damage so she can’t have the best of both worlds.
Q - Ranger's Focus
- Total Damage: 110 / 117.5 / 125 / 132.5 / 140% AD ⇒ 110 / 115 / 120 / 125 / 130% AD
[Galio](https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/champions/galio/)
Our favorite Demacian colossus has been quite sad between the removal of Phase Rush and the mid role quest adjustments. We’re flipping the script and helping him deliver justice by reducing some of his mana costs and tuning up the reward for a well-aimed Justice Punch. His ultimate is also lacking a bit of oomph in the damage department with how epic it is, so we’re helping it scale with his signature stat!
Q - Winds of War
- Mana Cost: 70 / 75 / 80 / 85 / 90 ⇒ 60 / 65 / 70 / 75 / 80
E - Justice Punch
- Total Damage: 90 / 130 / 170 / 210 / 250 (+90% AP) ⇒ 100 / 135 / 170 / 205 / 240 (+100% AP)
R - Hero’s Entrance
- NEW Total Damage: Now scales with 100% bonus magic resistance
[Lee Sin](https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/champions/leesin/)
Over time, Lee Sin has watched as other champs surpass him in both flair and mobility. We are looking to give him more opportunities to use the tools that allow him to fly around the map while making sure his high moments truly feel like such at all moments in the game.
W - Safeguard
