Context & Notes
WIP1) Here's ricklessabandon with context and a changelist for Ahri in today's PBE update:
[1] okay, have a bit of ahri info for anyone waiting on pbe iterations — going to have two different versions to try out, one for wednesday and another for thursday wednesday version is going to put more power into charm thursday version is going to put more power into spirit rush
[2] both versions will have movement speed removed from orb of deception, and both versions will have minor adjustments to fox-fire
[3] here's a preview of the wednesday version — we'll be looking out for feedback on how this version feels to play, as well what kinds of things about it players might like to see adjusted, before swapping over to the next iteration
2) Regarding the Guinsoo's Rageblade PBE iterations in 8.6, Meddler explained:
"We're experimenting with some different directions, including melee/ranged splits, whether it should be a hybrid item or not, whether it should be a rush item or something that you pair with previously built on hit stuff, whether it should have a stat line that forces Adaptive stats to AP etc. One of our goals is to try and open it up to more users, without just buffing it even more for those it's already strong on. Not sure what the team's thoughts are on the current version on the PBE, it only went into testing a day or two ago (had different changes again before that). Will pick their brains and get some more thoughts in for Friday."3) PhRoXzOn noted a changelist and context for changes on Lee Sin coming in today's PBE update:
[1] Gathering thoughts on Lee Sin: The following is hitting PBE today, but we're still iterating on stuff internally:
Energy Return :: 20/10 >>> 20/10 (at lv1) - 30/15 (at lv11)
- When Lee gets CDR and runs out of energy, feels like a kick in the teeth for an already
bad late game.
[2] Speculative changes (still in testing):
- Q range increase (1100 >>> 1200).
* With reduced access to wards and hops; improving access to big Q -> hop plays.Check out [THIS PAGE] for a comprehensive list of the new content & changes currently on the PBE as a part of this cycle or catch up with the individual update links below !
* W->E is pretty optimal in most cases, so leading with Q I'd imagine is not too powerful.
