Riot Games is treading lightly as League of Legends heads into the 2022 preseason.
Patch 11.22, which is scheduled to hit the live servers on Nov. 3, focuses on cleaning up champions and items in the form of nerfs and buffs. A few outliers that have stood out in pro play and solo queue, like Graves, Maokai, and Qiyana, are receiving nerfs, while Akali, Kalista, and Kayn are taking on buffs.
Goredrinker, an item that was hit by the nerf hammer in the previous patch, is also in for some changes. After admitting to overshooting nerfs to the item, the devs are pushing buffs into its durability and sustain to help bring it back up to relevance once again.
Here’s the full list of changes coming to League in Patch 11.22.
End of season
The Summoner’s Rift ranked, honor, and Clash seasons will end at midnight on Nov. 16—the last day of Patch 11.22. Ranked rewards will be distributed by Dec. 16 during Patch 11.23 for all regions except China, according to Riot.
