Patch 12.7 of League of Legends is now live, and Riot promises significant improvements. With MSI just around the corner, which is set to begin on May 10 in Busan, South Korea, the devs are shaking up the meta.
MSI 2022 will be held on Patch 12.8, although this patch will serve as a testing ground to get things in order before the year’s first international tournament. The impending commencement of MSI 2022 is putting a lot of pressure on the devs, who are looking to tone down some of pro play’s picks throughout the Spring split.
Here is the complete list of Patch 12.7 changes.
