Context & Notes

WIP!

1) Riot Scruffy tweeted a preview 10.22 balance changelists:

10.22 Patch Preview. Last patch of the season and things are pretty stable.

This includes some of the champion adjustments that we started working on last week.

He also noted:

"Just to confirm (you may have already seen on PBE) - we’re pulling the tenacity affecting knockups change from this preseason

We may come back to it in the future, but with all of the item changes we didn’t want to do this too and not have the bandwidth for appropriate follow up"

He added a look at upcoming items changes:

"Preseason PBE update - we're doing significant tuning passes across all of the items

Here are two upcoming iterations after our audit of:

-Assassin Mythic damage

-Sources of Shreds, % Pen, and overall effectiveness of countering resists"

2) Riot Phlox noted Ornn changes in testing on the PBE:

"Put an experimental change to Ornn for preseason on PBE. Now every time he upgrades any mythic to a masterwork his passive Armor/MR amp increases by 5% (10% without upgrades, same as live)"
