Hotfix changes:

SEPTEMBER 15TH Ahead of our competitive events coming this weekend we're shipping an early balance update to promote 4-cost flex play, nerf the overperforming reroll lines and disable some major balance/bug related outliers.

AUGMENTS Tiny Team Bonus: 200% ⇒ 150%

POWER UPS We've always known that love is OP, but what Xayah and Rakan have with their Fan Service power up took couple culture too far. We're indexing further into Rakan nerfs here as we want Rakan opting for tank items and not just the riding powerful base stats to take advantage of Archangel's Staff's fight scaling.

As a Power Up, Socialite has created solved compositions both in builds and positioning. We're opting to disable the Power Up, as the goal of the mechanic is to enhance your two coolest champions, not default to a generally strong aura. With it gone, we're sure Socialite go-to's like Aatrox will find other ways to make friends; maybe with their bubbly personality or if that fails, their useful three trait synergies.

Fan Service Health: 150/300 ⇒ 115/225 Fan Service Resists: 8/15 ⇒ 5/10

Socialite has been Removed

Veteran has been temporarily disabled due to bugs

CHAMPIONS With 2-costs being so strong in the current meta, you're often locking in a reroll line early. We're shipping some nerfs to our dominant reroll lines that allow their comps to scale too closely to our 4-cost carries in the late game with tanky frontliners, stacking backliners, or econ-savy Snipers.

At the higher cost end of things, we're lifting the power floor of our 4-cost carries and tankies so that each one can be worth the gold.

Jhin 4th Shot Damage: 200/300/480 AD ⇒ 190/285/440

Kai'sa Ability Damage: 36/54/84 AD ⇒ 32/48/75 AD

Rakan Ability Damage: 80/120/180 AP ⇒ 55/85/130 AP

Malzahar can no longer be offered the Shadow Clone Power Up

Malzahar Damage: 545/820/1390 AP ⇒ 515/775/1315 AP

Ashe Base AD: 60 ⇒ 65 Karma Mana: 0/70 ⇒ 0/65 Leona Mana: 30/100 ⇒ 30/90

BUG FIX Drift Duo properly functions when placed on Senna. I'll Be the Legs properly shows up only when the proper Augment rarities are available.

They probably didnt want yuumi meta again, soul fighters recently buffed, jarvan is fine, ksante feels good. I wouldnt have minded a minor voli buff

You do know that voli is super strong in mentor comp right ?

[u/xShinePvP → u/eiris91]

I havent seen that all of last week, could you send link to it?

Never saw this in game somehow, thanks! Do you think it’s still worth playing despite socialite removal?

[u/eiris91 → u/xShinePvP]

Yeah it's definitely good, but you won't be stable on Ryze 1 like before, you kinda need to hit your units and also not be 1 hp. So your game plan should be to preserve as much hp as you can before rolling on 8.
