Patch 5.6 prediction notes

TheGameXWorld·Mar 16, 2015·5 votes·3,068 views

We have seen that tank junglers can beat bruiser junglers in 0.1% of the few games in which they are picked in. We apologise for this inconvenience. We think this might be caused by 2 things:

Cinderhulk lacks counterplay and is anti-fun to play against. -Cinderhulk's bonus health has been reduced from 25% to 0.5% -As a compensation we are reducing it's price by 3 gold

-Sejuani's ult was a stun and because of that it clearly lacked counterplay -We are removing the stun -She's a tank jungler and because of this she gets no compensation buffs

Last patch, we lowered the cost on Sona's ult because we got tired of players complaining for these past 16 months. However, we still believe that she shouldn't be allowed in any sort of playable form. We realize she doesn't have the lowest base mana of the support class, so we've decided to fix this and do some additional nerfing while we're at it ^.^

Sona

Base Mana lowered to 265.84 from ~~340.6~~ Mana per level lowered to 37.5 from 45 Base armor lowered to 19.04 from ~~20.544~~ Armor per level lowered to 2.7 from ~~3.3~~

Aria of Perseverance: Mana cost increased to 90/100/110/120/130 from ~~80/85/90/95/100~~ Shield strength lowered to 30/45/60/75/90 from ~~35/55/75/95/115~~ Shield duration reduced to 1 second from ~~1.5 seconds~~

we buffed veigar again but he is still useless since minions block q.

Unamusing shit like this is likely why Riot doesn't tend to talk with us.

Zed has been lacking in the damage department, so we're boosting all his damage by a flat 50%.

katarina gets -1 base ad as her "nerf"

SIaytonMar 16, 20151 votes

Katarina ult ratio nerfed by 0.01%. As compensation, all abilities reset when procing her Q daggers.

Tank junglers seeing success, to help combat this, Cinderhulk now burns your own champion.

Added a second Graves to the game so both teams can play him.

We've seen some major problems in Kalista, she has had some problems completely kiting players like Vi. To compensate for this weakness, we have decided to allow 2 hops per swing. Also her spear rip damage seems a little weak, it wasn't able to 1 shot baron at 20%. We are increasing the damage ratio exponentially and we think you'll be able to see a large difference in her based while playing, and also by how many people pick her in champ select.

afterall this time we finally succeded in reworking evelynn

since she was the only champion with perma-stealth (and we hate uniqueness) we decided to remove her stealth alltogether. passive now adds flat armor and mr to help her in early jungle (to appease the community).

Q: because she synergies too well with luden's, hate spike is now a small aoe centered on evelynn for 4 seconds.

W. activating W will give evelynn an extra effect on other skills: Q increases her ms for the duration E your aa will deal 2.5% of enemie's max health for 3 seconds R passive resistances are increased by 50%

E: because evelynn was too much point and click we decided to change her E to a skillshot that deals flat amount of magic damage

R: evelynn lacks a good gap closer. Evelynn now jumps to a target location, unreliably knocking back champions.

because evelynn's kitt resembles shivana's, we decided to remove shivanna (nobody played her anymore, so it's allright)

Changed Urgot's role to Tank/Fighter. Made a new useless support named Dragonrider. He rides a dragon! Can roam around the map! He can be useless in more than just bot lane! Look at him gooo. Oh wow! Don't worry you will buy it, and play it. 22% win rate? That's because people don't know how to use him dummies. Other changes: Sion gets a new passive where his ult doesn't stop when you kill people, and he gets 1000 health when you have smite, just cause. New lore, LOL JK Urgot has a dark and mysterious past, and an even more mysterious future, yep. We said it. Urgot rework. HAHA got you again. No way. Urgot is what we call a healthy top laner, we want to give Sion a few buffs to get on his level though. Sion's e now doesn't cost any mana. Sion. Sion. Sion Urgot. Dragonrider. Calling it.
