As Riots continues to update League of Legends with new patches, patch 13.4 is on the horizon
With the January cyber-attack on the side, the League of Legends update cycle has returned to normal. With patch 13.4, Riot hopes to take a big bite out of the developing Season 13 meta.
Season 13 has seen a number of changes as Riot attempts to strike the perfect balance of the game. Having said that, Patch 13.4 is on the way because there are some outliers they want to address, such as more changes to the jungle and experience.
Also, according to League dev Matt “Phroxon” Leung-Harrison, Riot wanted to include a lot of changes for champions in this patch, such as snowballing and changes to range and melee supports.
Without further ado, here are the changes that will be included in Patch 13.4.
