PCTurbo Chemtank
League of Legends (PC)
Turbo Chemtank has been changed in 13 League of Legends patches. 2 buffs, 3 nerfs, 6 adjustments. Most recently nerfed in Patch 12.22.
Rather than a jungle specific rush item, Chemtank should now be a possible mid-to-late game option for any tank looking for an extra bit of engage potential.

Our changes to Turbo Chemtank in Patch 12.2 were a bandaid to bring the item back in line on dash-y champs (like Akali and Irelia) while we looked for better solutions. We're further adjusting its stacking mechanics to make Turbo Chemtank better suited for "tanking" rather than for "turbo charging" at enemies. Emphasis on the tank, not the turbo. (These changes also apply to its Ornn Masterwork item, Turbocharged Hexperiment.)
General
- Removed: Dealing damage no longer grants Refuel stacks.
- New Effect: Taking damage now grants Refuel stacks.
- Distance per Refuel stack increased to 25 units from 15.
- Refuel bonus monster damage increased to 200% from 175%.
- Refuel bonus minion damage increased to 30% from 25%.
Turbo Chemtank's update during Preseason 2022 was designed to let tanky gankers and initiators store movement into one big turbo blast for those moments when they gotta go fast. However, Refuel was stacking too well with dashes, which meant it was being used as a DPS source for non-tanks. While we admire the creativity here, Turbo Chemtank is supposed to be for, well, tanks, so we're adding some limits to the way its passive stacks. Ultimately, these adjustments shouldn't affect its intended use cases very much. (These changes also apply to its Ornn Masterwork item, Turbocharged Hexperiment.)
General
- Refuel stack gain now only works with damage against monsters or champions, instead of all targets.
- New Effect: Refuel movement stacks are now capped at 10 stacks per dash or blink.
Turbo Chemtank's Immolate effect often felt more like a requirement for jungle clear rather than an interesting passive. We're shifting the item's power into one big explosion, which should make it the go-to option for gankers and initiators that just gotta go fast.
General
- New Unique Passive - Refuel: Moving and dealing damage fills up the Chemtank, gaining stacks. Gain 5 stacks per instance of damage dealt per cast instance and 1 stack for every 15 units travelled. At 100 stacks, your next basic attack deals 40 to 120 (based on level) (+ 1% maximum health) (+ 3% movement speed) magic damage to all nearby enemies, increased by 25% against minions and 175% against monsters.
- Removed Passive - Immolate: Taking or dealing damage no longer activates this passive for 3 seconds. Deal 12 to 30 (based on level) (+ 1% bonus health) magic damage every second to enemies within 325 (+ 100% bonus size) units, increased by 25% against minions and 150% against monsters.
- New Effect: Mythic passive now also grants 50 bonus health.
With Turbo in tow, junglers are able to consistently engage and gank as they gallop in from across the map, so we’re putting it on a tighter leash.
General
- Supercharged bonus movement speed reduced to 40% from 60%.
Turbo Chemtank quickly broke speed limits and our expectations, so we're shifting some power from its zoom to its sloom.
General
- Supercharged bonus movement speed reduced to 60% from 75%.
- Supercharged slow increased to 50% from 40%.
General
- New Recipe: Bami's Cinder + Null-Magic Mantle + Cloth Armor + 950 gold = 2800 gold.
