Riot Games has just released a new League of Legends update for patch 12.9. We find there multiple champion balances but also two important reworks on Olaf and Taliyah. In terms of skins, they land in number on this patch with western collections as well as EDward Gaming world champion skins.
As for the Olaf and Taliyah reworks, they should allow the two champions to be much more present on Summoner’s Rift. For the first, it is his ultimate skill, Ragnarok which is interesting since now, If Olaf hits a champion with his ax or E – Savage Strike, Ragnarok’s duration will be extended, infinitely. On the side of Taliyahthe goal is to put her back on the midlane with a lot of changes to all her spells including his E – Telluric Scrolling which is getting bigger.
As for balancing, some nerves are to be served including that of Ahri, omnipresent on the midlane. The bronzes will be delighted to learn that Master Yi was nerfed in late game in order to reduce its impact as well as Sion’s passive that will deal 40% less damage on towers in order to avoid Sion inting in soloq. Obviously, some buffs are on the program including those of Reneketon, Hecarim or Varusquiet lately in bot lane.
For the rest of this update, the hull breakerubiquitous on the toplane lately is modified in order to that it is no longer bought as the first object. The goal for Riot Games and keep the split push in the game but it must not allow it to be done from the start of the game. Finally, in addition to the usual bug fixes, new skins are coming to the Rift including those of Edward Gaming, winner of the 2021 Worlds, with Aphelios, Graves, Viego, Yuumi and Zoe.
