A new week brings a new patch, and patch 13.17 will bring a slew of buffs to numerous mages as well as changes to several champions from different positions.
With patch 13.17, League of Legends hopes to shake things up once more. The latest patch gives mages a number of buffs while nerfing numerous other powerful outliers, who will have their strength reduced even more.
According to League’s lead balancing team Matt Leung-Harrison, the Riot Games devs’ main goal this time is pushing certain top champions away from “pure killing power builds” and towards durability.
This League update contains 21 champion changes, including nine buffs, five nerfs, and seven major changes, as well as eight item modifications and one rune change.
