Items
We're softening some of Black Cleaver's stacking rules, which will make the item much stronger for some champions who used to be able to apply two stacks at once.
General
- •Removed: No longer has a 0.01-second internal delay between applying stacks.
In an effort to chip away at ADC lane dominance in the early game, we're tapping down some of the early strength of Doran's Blade. Solo lane ADCs spend a large amount of time attacking minions relative to their bot lane brethren, and more consistently lane against those who threaten to burst them, so by reining in the durability of this item, we aim to make ADCs weaker to early aggression in solo lanes.
General
- •Health reduced to 80 from 100.
- •Life steal reduced to 3% from 3.5%.
Blade of the Ruined King came out a little stronger than it should have for ADCs so we're bringing its power down and compensating its melee users. Blade should be specifically good when targeting health-stackers, not just a generically great starter item, hence the reduction in base stats.
General
- •Attack damage reduced to 50 from 55.
- •Attack speed reduced to 25% from 30%.
- •Mist's Edge damage for melee champions increased to 10% of the target's current health from 9%.
General
- •Bug Fix: No longer triggers spell effects.
General
- •Bug Fix: No longer improperly grants the old aura buff of a removed passive on the item.
General
- •Bug Fix: Item damage effects no longer grant stacks and no longer benefit from the bonus damage.
General
- •Bug Fix: No longer provides an invisible 25% size when triggered.
