Patch 15.16 notes

Full patch notes

Patch 25.16 is preparing for takeoff! This patch’s live gameplay updates aim to shake up the metagame, injecting new junglers into the pool, bringing up the weakest mage supports, nerfing some of the top end, and enabling a few alternate builds. We’re following up on Rek’Sai’s and Illaoi’s recent changes and giving them the power they deserve. We’re also fixing long-standing bugs with Singed and Rumble that made them substantially weaker on red side. This is the last patch of the Season 2 ranked split, so if you’re looking to get that Victorious Fiora make sure to hit your ranked goals this patch! In other news, we’ve got an ARAM Clash coming with this patch so get those 5 stacks ready. There are also two variety skins flying, or rolling, into the action this patch, so check out Brick Toy Corki and Bolwing League Lillia! See you on the Rift!

Brand

Passive damage to monsters increased. Q stun duration increased. R cooldown decreased.

The last nerfs to Brand’s ultimate smothered his flames a bit too much, so we’re giving him a bit more firepower. Additionally, now that Brand has some room for additional power we’re adding a spicier elite-skewed buff to his Sear’s stun duration, and giving him some power in the jungle to bring him back to viability there.

Gnar

Q cooldown decreased.

Gnar has been a sad little fluff ball in the top lane, and hasn't even thrived in his natural, pro play habitat. To help our favorite prehistoric yordle we’re giving some love to his highest counterplay, highest satisfaction ability, to let him chuck wood and rocks for a better feeling early game. Additionally he really only has two spells when he's a baby, so allowing him to use it more will make him smile, and who doesn’t love that smile.

Illaoi

Passive damage increased, cooldown decreased.

Last patch’s Illaoi changes landed weaker than we intended, so we’re here to rectify that and give her the buff she deserves. We’re enabling her to set up shop in new locations more quickly, which is a common pain point for Illaoi players, and generally increasing her damage further since she gets fewer slams overall after lat patch’s Vessel changes.

Jarvan IV

Armor growth decreased.

Jarvan IV has been overperforming thanks to the combination of his ability to engage well and his tankiness. We want to level the playing field in the jungle this patch, so we're lowering his armor over game time to create clearer windows of vulnerability for his opponents to take advantage of.

Kalista

AD growth increased. E damage AP scaling increased.

Kalista has finally fallen off of the pro play radar, which gives us room to buff her back up for everyone else. We’re steering clear of her first 3 levels, as her former extreme lane dominance is what caused her woes in the first place. Instead, we’re buffing her late laning phase, second item power spike, and beyond in hopes of giving her a fighting chance in solo queue while giving her opponents a fighting chance in lane. While AP may seem like an odd buff, it represents an additional 9-13.5 damage per Rend stack due to Rageblade’s 30 AP. Also, remember that the recent Blade of the Ruined King buff was meaningful for her as well, so if it’s been a while since you last played Kalista, give her a try!

Lulu

E cooldown increased, damage and shield decreased.

Lulu has proven to be extremely resilient to nerfs and is still a top support. We’re looking to open up more weaknesses in her early laning phase with these nerfs, giving aggressive players more room to take an early advantage before Lulu’s carry scales up.

Master Yi

Q now stacks Kraken Slayer and Terminus

When Kraken Slayer first came out, we excluded Alpha Strike from stacking it but as it’s no longer a mythic item, those burst damage concerns aren’t nearly as pressing, so we’re enabling the item synergy and making Terminus also stack on each of these pseudo-attacks.

Mordekaiser

Q AD ratio added.

To open up more build options on Mordekaiser, we’re giving him some bonus attack damage ratios aimed at his most melee damage output. This will be a direct buff to him every time he ults, but the main intent is to bring back some AD builds and splashes of options like Sterak’s Gage. In short, bonus attack damage will make his mace smashes deal more damage.

Morgana

W damage adjusted.

Morgana is in a pretty sad state right now and could use some power in all three of her roles. We’re looking to make her main damaging ability more reliable by letting her whittle down healthier targets. This is a riskier change that may not end up having the power impact that we want so if Morgana doesn’t end up stronger as a result of these changes, we’ll quickly follow up with reliable buffs.

Nautilus

E damage to monsters increased.

We’re buffing Nautilus jungle with the hope of making him a viable tank jungler like he was in times of old. We’re changing his monster-specific damage to make him less reliant on optimizing Riptide’s multi-hits, which should also make him more approachable for those just trying him out and not requiring as much optimization, while still making it beneficial to maximize repeated hits for those that have practiced his clear.

Nocturne

Armor growth decreased. Q bonus AD decreased.

Nocturne’s currently one of the winningest junglers so we’re looking to nerf him in this patch. With Experimental Hexplate getting buffed, we’re accounting for that by swinging a bit harder than we normally would have, taking out a moderate mix of damage and durability.

Qiyana

Q damage increased. W bonus attack speed increased.

Qiyana is already decently strong in the right hands, but she's quite unpopular and sports a low ban rate unfitting for a queen like her. To help her out, we’re buffing her early damage on her Q and making her early game jungle clear and auto weaving feel a bit cleaner by buffing her W attack speed.

Rek'Sai

Base AD increased. Bugfixes.

Last patch’s Rek’Sai changes left her deeper underground than we wanted, so we’re here to deliver some buffs aimed at her early clear, which is not in the best state right now. We’re also fixing a long-standing tunnel bug that could leave her far from where she wanted to be and a more recently-introduced bug that allowed her to fail a Q-attack.

Rumble

Q damage decreased. Q and R QoL improvements, power impacting bugfixes.

In this patch we’re fixing a long-standing set of issues with Rumble that caused him to deal less damage to champions when played on the red side. In addition, we’re refactoring his Flamespitter to work more like a true damage over time effect. Each hit will light his target on fire and they’ll take another two ticks of damage in all contexts, which is a buff to the tail end of the spell. We’re also retiming The Equalizer to keep each zone hot for exactly as long as the visuals persist on the map, which makes the beginning of his ult more responsive and makes the end remain dangerous for longer. As these changes will result in substantial buffs in your average game, we’re delivering a preemptive nerf to Flamespitter’s damage, which should still leave him in a stronger position than before these changes and hopefully make the experience of playing him much more consistent.

Shaco

Passive damage decreased. Q damage decreased, cooldown increased.

Shaco's ban rate has been creeping up, so we're going to tap him down in a few areas that should hopefully reduce the frustration of playing against him, like his repeated invisibility on Q. Right now his AP build is better than the AD alternative, but AD is still his primary build, so we’re going to adjust both.

Singed

Q refresh rate buffed. Power impacting bugfix.

Similar to Rumble, we’ve fixed the bug that caused Singed to do delayed/less damage when on red side. While we were at it, we also increased the debuff refresh rate, making it deal more damage on average, as it’s more likely that Singed will refresh the poison duration on his opponents.

Sion

Passive health loss decreased. E armor shred increased. R damage increased.

AD Sion hasn’t been in a good spot as of late, so we’re here to help him out. We’re starting by reverting Sion's passive tickrate back to what it was before we nerfed it, giving him more time to beat people to death with his fists, and allowing his damage to be more potent when he snipes someone with an E. Finally, we also want the train's impact to be all the more explosive by increasing his bonus AD Ratio on his R. While we know these changes may be broadly power positive, we targeted areas that make AD Sion happier in particular.

Sylas

Passive now does bonus damage to monsters.

Sylas is a reasonably popular jungler, despite the fact that he isn’t really able to jungle effectively. To help the players that want to play him there we’re re-visiting his ability to clear the jungle by letting him whip his chains around and slay jungle camps.

Trundle

W attack speed decreased late, cooldown increased.

Trundle is pummeling all other junglers at all ranks in addition to being highly prevalent in pro play, so we need to take some power out of his direct combat potential. Frozen Domain is going up in cooldown to create clearer windows when you can and can’t fight him, alongside a tap down to his attack speed increase per rank.

Varus

We’re tweaking Varus this patch in order to make him stronger in the hands of the average player while making him weaker in pro play. To achieve this, we’re nerfing lethality Varus, as it’s his primary pro build, and buffing his on-hit builds as compensation.

Viego

Attack Speed growth decreased. Q nerfed against monsters and buffed against non-monsters.

Viego has crept back up to the top spot in the jungle due in part to the recent Kraken Slayer buffs. Instead of a straight forward nerf we're going to be shifting some of his power from the jungle into solo lanes, somewhere many players used to play him back when he came out. We're doing this by making his Q more useful against champions and minions while making it do a bit less to jungle monsters.

Warwick

Base AD increased. Passive damage decreased early.

Warwick’s easy to pick up and play which is reflected in his moderately high win rate typical of an approachable jungler. However, in top lane, he’s too strong, which can lead to very frustrating experiences where he either can be killed by an all-in or simply sustains back up out of reach. We’re shifting some power from his early game passive into his base attack damage in order to weaken his early game resourceless healing, while leaving his damage and Q healing intact, or even buffed in some cases. We intend for these changes to be neutral for Warwick jungle but power negative for top lane.

Zyra

E cooldown decreased. R damage increased.

Zyra is wilting a bit at the moment, falling below her historically healthy power levels. To help her out we’re looking to water her with buffs that are geared around her high moment roots into Stranglethorns to ensure she still provides the teamfighting prowess she’s known for. The late game focused R buff is meant to be a small nudge toward Zyra mid but we know there’s more work to be done there before she feels like she can put down roots there.

We want to walk back his passive just a tad and see where that puts him.
