Question from returning player

Death by Proxy··1 votes·426 views

Hi, I quit playing sometime in season 4, I'm thinking about starting back up again now, but I'm sure that there are TONS of important changes that I need to know about.

Would you guys please fill me in on some of those changes?

Thank you.

Nunu is viable, nidalee isn't. The entire world is flipped upside down

That's pretty much a summary of season 6.

Just head over to the patch notes and have yourself a look. It took me quite a while after only taking season 6 off.

Big ones? The structure of the game hasn't changed too much in the past two years (in comparison to if you quit in S1 and came back in S3).

-They redid the jungle again, so you'll need to do a couple custom games to get used to it. There's a mini-Baron ("Rift Herald"), the dragon got changed to a bunch of different dragons, and almost all the little camps have been redone (and they added a couple). -Boot enchants are gone. -Flat Armor Pen got replaced with "Lethality". It's like Flat Armor Pen, but it scales with your level, so it's weaker early and stronger late. -Two important (high play rate) champs have come out since S4, Ekko and Jhin. -Masteries changed (as they almost always do). The important thing now is the "keystone" mastery (the one you put the 18th point in a tree into). You'll need to learn what these do, as they can have significant impact on in-game play (like a shield for 35% of health upon doing hard CC, or gaining 75% slow immunity for 10 seconds).
