Riot Games brings a new bot laner into the game with Nilah. The champion will be available in League of Legends from Thursday.

Ekko, Kai”Sa and Sona will also receive a Star Warden skin and Fiddlesticks can look forward to a Star Nemesis outfit.

In addition, there are buffs for many champions in League of Legends. Fiddlesticks not only gets a new skin, but the damage of his Ultimate as well as the fear duration of Q is increased. Master Yi has had his attack range increased and his cooldown and mana cost adjusted. Another nine champions receive a buff, these are: Elise, Evelynn, Galio, Karthus, Kled, Olaf, Renekton, Taliyah and Vex.

In addition, Gwen and Sivir will receive adjustments with patch 12.13. Gwen will have her life regeneration increased and damage from the Q ability increased. Her Ultimate also gets a buff in damage.

The next update in League of Legends is already on the way. The patch 12.13 is supposed to bring several adjustments to champions on 13 July. But also the new bot laner Nilah could make his first appearance in the Summoner”s Rift with the update.

Patch 12.12b was already released on Thursday and brought adjustments to some champions including Caitlyn, Katarina, Leona and Bel”Veth. The update is only meant to bridge the time to the actual patch 12.13, which will go live later in League of Legends due to a summer break by Riot Games.

Although the new jungler Bel”Veth only appeared in the Summoner”s Rift at the beginning of June, the bot laner Nilah is to make her first appearance in League of Legends with patch 12.13. This is an AD laner. This is an AD Carry for melee combat that has abilities related to water and also uses them in fights. Nilah is armed with a whip for this purpose.

With her passive ability, the champion can even buff nearby allies. Nilah boosts their healing and shields. However, in addition to the new AD Carry, other adjustments are also being made to the champions. Among others, buffs and nerfs are planned for Master Yi, Taliyah and Corki as well as Volibear with Patch 12.13. In addition, Gwen and Sivir are to receive an overhaul in LoL.

An avalanche of adjustments is rolling towards League of Legends. As early as Thursday, micropatch 12.12b will become active. Two weeks later, massive adjustments are to follow in update 12.13.

As Riot Games lead designer Matt Leung-Harrison announced via Twitter on Wednesday, four champions will get a buff in micropatch 12.12b, while seven will be generated.

In the Champions, Bel”Veth has to take a beating once again. The newest character in the LoL universe receives less health and attack damage increase. In addition, the cooldown of the E-ability is increased and at the same time the Lifesteal effect is permanently fixed at 20 percent. Meanwhile, Senna has to make do with 30 points less base health. Wukong has also been hit hard. The jungler now does 40 percent less damage to monsters.

On the other hand, fans of Caitlyn can rejoice. Her passive damage will again be increased by 10 percent and the bonus damage of the W will also increase. Meanwhile, Leona also receives more passive damage, Shaco enjoys a higher Attack Damage Ratio as well as reduced cooldown of the W ability.

Patch 12.13 with focus on Sivir and Gwen

In the first information for patch 12.13, which is scheduled to be released on July 13, concrete as well as versatile adjustments to the champions Sivir and Gwen are planned. Both will receive massive changes. Sivir is to receive “more moments of personal strength”. Her kit will remain the same, but will be improved.

Specifically, Sivir will start the match with slightly reduced Ability Damage and Base Mana. In return, her stats should increase significantly from the mid-game onwards. In addition, her W ability for wave management will improve, because the damage from one enemy will hit an adjacent enemy even more. In return, however, this effect is no longer infinite.

Her E ability can still intercept enemy spells, but no more mana immediately returns to the pool in return. Sivir gets a heal for herself, though. Most of all, her Ultimate is changed. Her R-Cooldown is drastically reduced, but the Attack Speed is also removed. However, a Takedown renews her abilities, which should give her more explosive options.

On the other hand, Gwen receives clear adjustments especially on her Q skill. The Ability Power is increased. In addition, the Wave Clear against Minions is significantly improved if they already have less than 20 percent health. Speaking of health: Gwen”s HP regeneration also increases slightly. Her E gets more range and magic damage. In addition, there is more Ability Power for the Ultimate.

In addition to the champion adjustments, mythic items with a Lethality Factor will also be improved. The affected mythic items include Duskblade, Prowlers and Eclipse. All items increase the passive speed by 5. Additionally, the range damage of Eclipse will be improved.

Report from 28 June

Riot Games lead designer Matt Leung-Harrison announced on Tuesday that a micropatch 12.12b will follow the already released patch. This is scheduled to go online on Thursday.

“We are planning a 12.12 micropatch to hit a few special cases on 30 June,” Matt Leung-Harrison said in his statement on Twitter. Champions who were hit too hard by nerfs in the 12.11 update should get a buff again.

Champions listed in yellow are slated for patch 12.12b. These include Shaco, Katarina, Caitlyn and Leona, who will each receive a buff. On the other hand, Bel”Veth, Senna, Tahm Kench, Zeri, Wukong, Seraphine and Yuumi will be weakened. Especially the newest champion Bel”Veth has to take the second nerf in a row.

Patch 12.13 will be delayed due to the micropatch and will not be released until 13 July. In this patch, the planned adaptation of Gwen could play a major role. The gifted seamstress has had several good phases in Pro-Play since her release. However, because she only has a win rate of just under 46 percent on the top lane, the developer wants to change something about her kit.

Besides the Gwen-Adjustment, some champions like Renekton and Master Yi will get a buff. Lethality Mythics will also be strengthened, while Divine Sunderer will be changed again. However, Riot Games has not yet announced any information on specific stats. We will keep you updated on any new developments.
