Early notes of League patch 11.23: preseason 12 update, all item and rune adjustments.

Preseason 12 will be introduced in League of Legends patch 11.23, with Riot Games tweaking the game’s balance and introducing new mechanics and features.

The devs have stated that the next season will include two new Drakes, as well as new Mythic Items and Runes. There will also be major updates to certain current items, some of which have already been implemented on the PBE servers.

The base stats of items like Doran’s Ring, Horizon Focus, and Sunfire Aegis will be updated significantly. Some runes, like as Lethal Tempo and Glacial Augment, will be updated, and First Strike will be added to the Inspiration tree.

Here is a list of all the Item and Rune changes that have been released on the League of Legends PBE. It’s worth noting that all of the changes described below are preliminary and may not appear in the final League of Legends patch.
