Twitch Changes

Patch 26.17

nerfCurrent Patch

Twitch’s nerfs from last patch didn’t do enough to dethrone him from the top spot. We’re taking out a mix of damage and durability, ultimately trying to make sure that his damage output is readable when exiting out of stealth.

Base Stats

  • Base Attack Speed: 0.679 → 0.658
  • Level 1 Attack Speed: 0.679 → 0.658
  • Health: 470 → 455

Patch 26.16

nerf

Twitch is the strongest bot laner in the game right now. To start, our nerfs are going to be reverting his buffs from 1.0.0.144 and 1.0.0.146, both from 2012. Because his late game can be so potent, we're doubling down on his scaling archetype and making his laning phase even more difficult.

Base Stats

  • Attack Damage: 52 → 50

W - Venom Cask

  • Projectile Speed: 1400 → 1300

E - Expunge

  • Mana Cost: 50 / 60 / 70 / 80 / 90 → 70 / 75 / 80 / 85 / 90

R - Spray And Pray

  • Missile Speed: 5000 → 4000

Patch 26.15
