FYI we micropatch buffed Graves and nerfed Skarner: leagueoflegends.com/en-us/news/gam…

Graves has some weird interactions with reloading that meant 14.8's changes were a nerf in some cases. Went for a simpler buff until we can rescript that part of hit.

Skarner is just OP.

Maokai nerfs are cancelled.

reksai confirmed NOT wholesome chungus by phreak

We just micropatched bugs with Twisted Fate, Karthus, and Unflinching.
TF: Red Card didn't slow the primary target
Karthus: Weirdness with Wall of Pain resists
Unflinching: Weird interactions with Graves's Smoke Screen that gave people infinite stats.

So Chronicler introduced all the casters to the negative self talk frog, and now anytime someone is being down on themselves people immediately hit them with the frog.

10/10 would recommend frogging your friends.

Hi all, I've got an Azir changelist you'll see hitting PBE with today's deploy! Back when Arena first came out it quickly became apparent that soldier's not interacting with on-hits was stifling what could be a lot of fun builds for him and trapping players who didn't know.

I have interviewed hundreds of coaches over the years.

Edward was a top 3 all time. We wanted to find a role for him on TH 2024 but was just not possible. Will make a noticeable/immediate impact on any team that picks him up, including at LEC/LCS level.

Can’t wait to see Golden Guardians pull a DRX this year.

13.20 Preview!

13.20 has 3 projects we've been working on for some time:
K'Sante: Trying to keep his fun/identity intact (including moving W to more of a warden output in tank form), while reducing his Pro skew
Jungle Changes: Some nerfs to jungle strength across a variety of

For Ability Haste conversations that are going around right now. A few reasons for this:
- We've been trying to move certain classes away from damage and into other outputs (eg. Assassins using Haste instead of damage to make them more about repeatability and less about

Excited to take on duties as the Design Lead for SRT's Live Pod!

This means I'll be heavily involved in setting the direction for how we approach game balance and exactly how frequently we should keep buffing ADCs.

We intend to include changes that address AD LeBlanc Top in 13.19. We playtested the first iteration this evening and it’s looking promising.

We'll see you at the #LCS Arena in 2024.
