And surprisingly, the Cloud Dragon buffs are the most profitable in terms of stats
The Durability Update in Patch 12.10, the largest mid-season update, and the subsequent adjustments to the meta have kept the community changing their gameplay constantly.
The latest Patch 12.14 is no exception, bringing about a significant adjustment in Map Objective, as well as champions, items, buffs and debuffs, and rune modifications.
Recently, a user from Reddit has calculated the stats that each Dragon will give upon their execution: After capturing a single drake, the team will gain around 2500 Gold in stats. In terms of pure numbers, the Cloud Drake is the winner; the movement speed it provides is now worth 560 Gold per player.
However, since Mountain and Infernal Buff deliver % stat rather than flat stat, it’s more difficult to measure their value – but they’re still quite powerful.
For example, a single stack of Infernal’s buff increases combat stats by about 350G at 100AP/AD, 700G at 200AP/AD, and so on, making it an incredibly strong scaling buff.
The meta appears to be shifting towards early and mid-game setups as Drakes’ effects grow considerably greater since both teams now have a tremendous reason to battle the bot-side objective.
This adjustment will also have a significant influence on the top lane meta. Even though the proposed Teleport nerfs did not make it live, top laners will have to make the most use of their Teleport whenever there is a team fight near the bot lane.
