Doran's Helm Changes

Patch 26.13

nerf

We overshot a bit with the 26.11 Doran's Helm buff, so we're tapping it back down while keeping the base health high and targeting the users it's overperforming on.

General

  • Armor reduced to 8 from 10.
  • Magic resistance reduced to 8 from 10.
  • Health increased to 150 from 140.

Patch 26.12

change

General

  • Bug Fix: The Helping Hand buff is now properly removed when the item is sold or undone.

Patch 26.10

buff

Doran’s Helm is meant to be an exciting item to hold onto after the early game with the resistances it offers scaling better than Doran’s Shield’s health regeneration. However, it is currently a bit too difficult to make it out of the early game. We are looking to lighten the early game load so that players can get to the mid game high points.

General

  • Health increased to 140 from 110.

Patch 26.9

new

Doran's Helm added to League of Legends

We wanted to give more starting item options to champions who want to stack resistances. When it comes to the fantasy of being unkillable, current items assume a losing position. Though champions who want resistances tend to start on the back foot, we want to reward players who take advantage of the opportunity to come out even or ahead in laning phase with an item that pays off in valuable stats throughout the rest of the game.

General

  • Cost: 450 gold.
  • Stats: 110 health, 10 armor, 10 magic resistance.
  • Unique Passive - Helping Hand: Basic attacks deal 5 bonus physical damage on-hit against minions.
  • Limited to 1 Starter item.
