League of Legends Patch 13.1 Notes: Here are the full details of changes

League of Legends season 13 is finally here. After a short break for the Christmas and New Year’s holidays, Riot Games’ devs are back at work with weekly updates, adjusting and tweaking the ever-changing League meta.

Patch 13.1, the first League of Legends 2023 update, will kick off the 2023 League season in earnest. As is customary, there are champion changes and item modifications, and the Grandmaster at Arms, Jax, is getting a mid-scope update to update his ability kit and put him right back in the meta.

Without further ado, let’s jump right into the changes of the first patch of the season. Patch 13.1 has already gone live on January 11, so players can hop into the game and try out the changes immediately.
