Fanny is proving difficult to counter across all ranks. We've decided to make some adjustments to weaken her, improving counterplay options against her.
Suyou has become somewhat too versatile in the current patch. We aim to reduce Suyou's applicability in certain scenarios without diminishing the core experience of playing him.
Granger's consecutive long-range poke damage and high mobility make him difficult to counter. We're nerfing these aspects while compensating by increasing the burst damage of his single attacks.
As a Mage who serves as a core damage dealer in the late-game, Cecilion's power spike arrived a bit too early. We will be reducing his damage output during the mid-game.
Slightly increased early-game Jungling speed and reduced late-game skill downtime.
Kaja's long skill cooldown makes it difficult to stack his Passive in the early-to-mid game. Therefore, we've reduced his Skill 1 cooldown but decreased the maximum Passive stacks.
It's time to give our old friend a heartwarming buff! We've optimized Balmond's damage scaling in the mid-to-late game, allowing him to better utilize HP bonuses from equipment.
