Patch 14.17 is coming to League of Legends very soon, and as such we’re learning all about the changes Riot has planned to make to the MOBA. Here’s the early patch notes for League of Legends patch 14.17.
Two weeks means a new patch for Riot Game’s beloved MOBA. Patch 14.17 inLeague of Legendsaims to make new changes to the MOBA, particularly when balancing the game’s roster.
With over 160 champions, unique items, passives, roles, matchups, and more, it’s a tough challenge for developers.
When does League Patch 14.17 go live?
Here are the key timings of Patch 14.17 for your server:
When patching begins, there’ll be a few hours of downtime, and matchmaking queues will be taken offline approximately three hours beforehand.
Champions like Brand and Lillia have massively benefited from the introduction of item Fated Ashes, and its legendary version Blackfire Torch. This item has massively helped their clear speed and damage and has resulted in them being nerfed multiple times.
They’re both pro play staples, and they’ve been nerfed going into worlds. It’s up in the air as to whether or not Brand will be able to jungle at all after this.
Looks like we missed some Brand and Lillia changes in today’s patch notes. Working on adding those in asap!For context those are mentioned in the patch preview here if you’re looking for the quick details:https://t.co/dIskUklKRG
The official patch notes on Riot’s site didn’t mention these nerfs, but devs have confirmed they’ll be going live on the patch.
