- •Released July 28, 2021 (0:01 UTC).
Ashe has been slightly underperforming, so we are looking to give her some quality-of-life buffs that strengthen her identity as a utility marksman.
Hawkshot
- •Enemy reveal duration increased from 3 seconds to 5.
Enchanted Crystal Arrow
- •Manual turn speed per second increased from 38° to 45°.
Fizz made a large splash with our jungle changes, but is still lacking when it comes to getting lane priority, particularly in skilled play. Additionally, his (2) Rending Wave feels underwhelming, so we want to improve it. Furthermore, there are some interactions skilled Fizz players are able to capitalize on in PC, but these weren’t implemented properly in Wild Rift, so we’re rectifying this too. Due to the large amount of changes coming for the Tidal Trickster, we’ll be extra vigilant in following up on how his performance is affected.
Rending Wave
- •New Effect: Now applies its initial bonus magic damage from the first attack in a 175 radius splash area around the target hit and applies Seastone Trident to targets hit by this splash.
Playful / Trickster
- •New Effect: Protobelt Enchant now buffers during Playful instead of cancelling it.
- •New Effect: Protobelt Enchant no longer cancels Trickster's fall down splash if he did not re-cast Trickster.
Graves isn’t under-performing in terms of win rate, but a lot of his power lies in his early base stats which we believe makes him less satisfying to play. We’re shifting around some of his power to give him more oomph on the more explosive parts of his kit so that good play around his abilities is better rewarded. We also hope to give him better build options by dramatically increasing the value that AD and armor pen have for his burst spell, (1) End of the Line.
Stats
- •Base health reduced from 650 to 610.
- •Base attack damage reduced from 70 to 64.
- •Attack damage growth increased from 3.6 to 4.55.
End of the Line
- •Cooldown reduced from 12/11/10/9 seconds to 11/10/9/8.
- •Powder Shell bonus AD ratio increased from 40% bonus AD to 70%.
- •Powder Explosion base damage changed from 85/125/165/205 to 80/130/180/230.
- •Powder Explosion bonus AD ratio changed from 100% bonus AD at all ranks to 70/100/130/160%.
Quickdraw
- •Armor per stack increased from 4/8/12/16 to 6/10/14/18.
We are updating the Grievous Wounds (healing reduction) system to have different levels of severity, so some champions that apply it through abilities have been adjusted.
Death Lotus
- •Grievous Wounds increased from 50% to 60%.
Lucian is quickly tearing up the Rift. These changes to his core stats will make Lucian a bit less oppressive and level the playing field for his foes.
Stats
- •Base health reduced from 610 to 570.
- •Base armor reduced from 40 to 35.
- •Base magic resistance reduced from 34 to 30.
- •Magic resistance growth reduced from 1.2 to 0.8.
- •Base mana regeneration reduced from 18 to 15.
- •Base movement speed reduced from 340 to 335.
We are updating the Grievous Wounds (healing reduction) system to have different levels of severity, so some champions that apply it through abilities have been adjusted.
Hail of Arrows
- •Grievous Wounds reduced from 50% to 40%.
Ziggs is still taking down towers a bit too quickly. While this is part of his identity, it has been extra destructive at higher levels of play, so we’re turning down his damage just a tad.
Satchel Charge
- •Turret execute threshold reduced from 20/25/30/35% health to 15/20/25/30%.
We can’t cure his curse, but we can rid him of a pesky bug.
Tantrum
- •Bug Fix: Passive now triggers multiple times against abilities with multiple damage instances, rather than triggering just once per such ability.
We’re exterminating the bugs that have been plaguing knifekitty since release. This will affect his power, particularly skilled Rengar players, so we will be keeping an eye out in upcoming patches to see if we need to adjust him.
Unseen Predator
- •Bug Fix: Attacking an enemy in melee range while in brush with 0 Ferocity now grants 1 Ferocity.
Battle Roar
- •Bug Fix: Casting Battle Roar after Empowered Battle Roar will correctly heal him.
