League of Legends Patch 14.10 didn’t go as planned, so Riot Games is releasing a significant micropatch. This update will include buffs and nerfs for champions like Corki, Draven, Samira, and Smolder, as well as changes to about six items.
Phreak shared the details of this League of Legends micropatch on Twitter late on May 16. He explained that these changes were necessary because these champions and items were the most problematic and needed urgent adjustments before the arrival of Patch 14.11. This upcoming patch, expected to be released on May 30, should include many more updates for the midseason.

Many League players have been unhappy with the poor win rates of some champions since the May update. However, Phreak mentioned that most of these champions are not actually weak. Instead, players are not building them correctly, which is why they are not part of this micropatch.
Unless there are any major issues in the next two weeks, this should be the final update until Patch 14.11 is released.
