Patch 12.13 has already produced several outliers and a hotfix was deployed to address.
Master Yi
BASE AD 66 ⇒ 65

R – COOLDOWN 100/90/80 ⇒ 120/100/80
Sivir
Q – BASE DAMAGE 25/40/55/70/85 ⇒ 15/30/45/60/75

W – COOLDOWN 10 ⇒ 12
Rather heavy handed nerfs for a hotfix considering patch was live for 2 days
Athough we don’t have stats coming in from League API or websites such as op.gg yet, these champions must have been quite ahead of the pack.
3 separate nerfs for all 3 champions that impact not only their early game and laning but also late game potential and scalability
Granted, Yi, Gwen and Sivir were some of the big winners of Patch 12.13 and received generous buffs. These updates should keep them in check.
We’ll keep you updated on more hotfixes as they arrive!
How has the patch worked out for you? Let us know in the comments!
*Update: Looks like Master Yi was at 56% win rate in Gold+ before the hotfix
