League Patch 12.23b addresses strong junglers and optimizes preseason items before Riot’s long vacation
Patch 12.23b is now live in League, following a brief glimpse via the patch preview earlier this week and a few of changes. Except for any hotfixes, this mid-patch will be the last major set of balancing changes to impact the game this year until Patch 13.1 arrives at the start of next year.
Notably, almost all of the nerfs in Patch 12.23b are a direct outcome of the continuing preseason, which has not only introduced big adjustments to the jungle, but has also modified a number of items.
