League of Legends 13.13 patch notes
League of Legends 13.13 Patch focuses on fine-tuning the game’s balance by addressing the power levels of various champions and items. While the majority of changes consist of nerfs, a few champions receive buffs to enhance their viability. Notable champions facing Nerfs include Neeko, Aphelios, Annie, Wukong, Vi, and Kindred, among others. These adjustments aim to ensure a more balanced playing field and diversify the champion pool in competitive matches.
However, not all changes are centered around nerfs. Lee Sin and Nidalee are the fortunate recipients of buffs in Patch 13.13, offering players new opportunities to excel with these champions.
On the item front, Statikk Shiv receives a Nerf after demonstrating its dominance, while Riot Games also targets several other items for adjustment. Moreover, even the Ghost summoner spell faces a nerf, aligning with the developers’ plan to create a solid foundation for larger changes expected in Patch 13.14, scheduled for late July. By allowing the meta to settle, Riot Games aims to gather valuable data and insights to inform future balance decisions.
This patch is mostly focused on stabilization as it will be a 3 week patch and let the meta play out
