Riot Games’ Lead Gameplay Designer for Teamfight Tactics, Stephen “Mortdog” Mortimer, released his regular patch rundown on Sunday, revealing the planned content of the upcoming Update 10.23.

Aphelios-Tower with adjustments, rework for Xin Zhao

For Aphelios adjustments are planned again: His towers will no longer trigger on-attack effects like Guinsoo’s Rageblade and Statikk Shiv and will also no longer generate mana.

However, on-hit effects such as Spear of Shojin are still to be triggered. As a compensation, both the start mana and the mana costs will probably be massively reduced. In addition, the attack speed of Aphelios will be increased slightly.

Xin Zhao can most likely look forward to a rework of his ability. In addition to the damage caused to nearby enemies, this will give him Armor and Magic Resistance for the rest of the fight. His starting mana and his mana cost will probably be increased in the course of this.

Ahri plans to make her ability a channel with the next patch. This should make it possible to interrupt her ability. In such a case the ability would be activated prematurely and thus have a lower radius. The Spell Damage is also planned to be increased to levels 1 and 2.

Talon is expected to receive a new target for his ability. In the future, he should always attack the opponent with the lowest armor value. The time until the next jump after a successful kill will also be increased.

For Lee Sin, the plan is to improve his level 3 form. He shall become a “god” after the update. However, details about the adjustments were not mentioned.

The probably biggest change in the traits will be given to Cultist. The starting mana of Galio will be increased on all levels. In his 6 form he will lose some life, in his 9 form he will lose some base attack damage in addition to life. To compensate for these nerfs, however, Galio 9 would be immune to crowd control for the first eight seconds after being summoned.

Planned Unit, Item and Trait Adjustments
