The latest update for “League of Legends” is Patch 14.9, which includes a variety of changes aimed at refining gameplay balance and enhancing several champions. Notable changes include the introduction of Lee Sin’s Art and Sustainability Update (ASU), which updates his character model and animations. Arena Mode has also made a comeback with several modifications to enhance player experience.
Specific champion adjustments in this patch involve both buffs and nerfs aimed at better balancing the game’s roster. For instance, Amumu has received slight improvements to his base stats which might strengthen his roles in Support and Jungle. On the other hand, Ahri and Aurelion Sol have seen reductions in their abilities’ effectiveness, potentially diminishing their impact in matches. Jinx’s Ultimate cooldown has been increased across all ranks, impacting her late-game power.
Item changes are also part of this update, with adjustments to key items like Hexdrinker, Maw of Malmortius, and Eclipse, reflecting an ongoing attempt to balance the game’s item ecosystem. These changes aim to tweak the strength of various builds and influence the overall meta of the game (Mobalytics) (League of Legends).
