Here is everything you need to know about patch 11.24b.
With patch 11.24 already released just a week ago, Riot Games introduces its latest micro update, patch 11.24b. It will be the last balance update for the 2021 calendar year with 10 champions being the main focus; five will be receiving buffs while another five will be getting nerfed. The patch is expected to release today. This will also be the last update to League of Legends until January 2022 when patch 12.1 is expected to release.
This was announced by @RiotPhlox, gameplay designer for League of Legends on his Twitter.
While Gwen gets a much-needed HP boost and Olaf gains 100% attack speed on his passive, it's the likes of Varus, Kai'Sa, and Pyke who receive major upgrades to their kit. Looking at the nerf list, names like Kassadin, Vayne, and Lux stand out as the top champions that are performing right now. We also see an interesting buff to the glacial augment while first strike gets a damage reduction.
