My Patch Notes

I took a page from the Captain's book and decided to make my own patch notes instead of from Gameplay Boards. Disclaimer: this is only my opinion. If a champion doesn't appear in this list, it doesn't mean it shouldn't be patched. Merely, this is with my own experience with these champions. I didn't want to go over all 140 champions, would take too long and I'm not qualified. Having said that, this is an experiment and I hope to do more. Not a complete list! Forgive me for not adding context to these changes, may do so in future posts. Also, I am avoiding champions that currently have VGU/rework in development.

#Champions

  • Ahri Passive: Movement speed increased. 20% -> 30%
  • Amumu R: Cost lowered. 100/150/200 -> 100 mana at all ranks
  • AurelionSol Passive/W: [BUGFIX] Stars no longer go invisible for enemy team/opponents.
  • Blitzcrank Q: [UPDATED] Tapping Q causes Blitzcrank to throw a Rocket PUNCH, damaging & knocking BACK the first enemy hit. Channeling for 1.5s grabs them normally.
  • Diana R: [UPDATED] Now only consumes Moonlight on targets hit (instead of all enemies regardless) and now dashes towards target enemy in an arc (akin to Q), damaging ALL enemies hit.
  • Fiddlesticks E: Can no longer bounce to enemy champions who are hidden from vision (stealth, brush/fog of war)
  • Garen R passive: [REMOVED Villian mechanic]
  • [NEW] Garen gains bonus MS and AD when a nearby ally is below 50% of their own maximum HP.
  • Heimerdinger W: Range lowered. 1325 -> 1100
  • CD increased. 11/10/9/8/7 -> 12/11/10/9/8
  • Jax [UPDATED] New ability Icons!
  • Nami [NEW] Nami's basic attacks deal bonus magic damage while she is in the river.
  • Pantheon Passive: [NEW] Basic attacks deal 5/10/15 less damage to Pantheon (at levels 1/7/13)
  • Taliyah R: [BUGFIX] No longer causes autopathing to fail
  • Teemo R: [UPDATED] Traps are now visible but untargetable (like Caitlyn W)
  • Urgot E: [REMOVED] No longer has a 0.25s delay before dashing.
  • Yasuo W: Duration lowered from ~~ 3.75s at all ranks~~ -> 2.5 / 2.75 / 3 / 3.25 / 3.5s

Huh. I actually like the sound of the conditioning change.

Might be a bit weak, though. Opens up the tree for some squishies who really need those resistances late game, but is going to be incredibly weak on tanks who use the tree. Maybe make it an either-or, so that it gives the greater of 5 every 10 minutes or the 5% total increase? (Might want to buff up the numbers a bit, though. 6-7 every 10 minutes would be far more useful, without looking too much bigger on paper)

Blitzcrank's change is pretty neat, but why does ahri need buffs?
