LoL Patch 14.13 – more changes announced

Patch 14.12 was officially released on June 12 and it came with one of the biggest announcements in league history: the addition of Faker in the Hall of Legends. To commemorate the game’s most decorated professional player in LoL esports, players will be able to celebrate with several bundles, special Ahri skins, and an event pass for the occasion.

On the game side of things, Riot mainly looked at nerfing down some of the outliers and best-performing champions, including the likes of Skarner, Rek’Sai, and Twisted Fate. There were a few interesting buffs to some of the less popular champions but they are probably still a little too far from becoming pick-or-ban status.

While we monitor to see how the new patch will settle and see the shifts in the meta, the devs are putting their hands on the next patch 14.13. To find out what is being tweaked, check the sections below: the numbers are, as usual, taken from game designer Spideraxe.

Patch 14.13 Release Date

According to the official patch schedule, Patch 14.13 will be released on Wednesday, June 26. This will be the 13th patch out of the 24 updates planned for the year.

How will the upcoming patch impact the meta?

There are currently only three changes announced. The Varus tweaks seem to shift him towards the lethality and poke build compared to the attack speed one — we’ll have to see it in-game to know how much of difference it might make.

In the meantime, if you are looking for the best picks in the meta, check out our tier lists:
