LoL patch 13.24 is the last patch of the season, but it's a long one, so Riot is going to add a few balance tweaks mid-patch so that everyone can enjoy the holiday season – without having their fun ruined by OP champions.

So, what champions are going to be getting adjusted before we jump into all the fun changes that are LoL Season 14? Let's go over the short, but sweet, list – and check it twice… okay, sorry.

LoL Patch 13.24b: All Buffs & Nerfs

Champion Nerfs

A few champions have been way too strong recently. Orianna and Syndra continue to dominate the mid lane, while Sylas and Yone are getting some well-deserved nerfs for Christmas.

Yone

W Base Shield: 60-80 (based on level) ⇒ 40-90 (based on level)

Sylas

W Magic Damage: 70/105/140/175/210 (+90% AP) ⇒ 65/100/135/170/205 (+80% AP)
W Heal: 20/40/60/80/100 (+40% AP) ⇒ 20/40/60/80/100 (+35% AP) (Note: heal is still doubled at ~60% missing health)

Syndra

Q Magic Damage: 75/110/145/180/215 (+70% AP) ⇒ 75/110/145/180/215 (+60% AP)
Bugfix: Fixed a bug that caused Syndra to lose her passive 15% bonus AP buff when revived by a Zilean ultimate or Guardian Angel

Orianna

Base Health: 600 ⇒ 585
W Movement Speed Modifier: 30-50% (based on rank) ⇒ 20-40% (based on rank)

There are no other nerfs planned yet, but it is just a small mid-patch update so we didn't expect Riot to have a huge list of champions and changes. Even the balance team wants some time off for the holidays, eh?

Champion Buffs

Who could have seen this coming, huh? Right after nerfing Naafiri, she gets buffed again, only this time Riot is targeting a different ability. In addition to Naafiri, Warwick is buffed, as well as Hwei and Corki.

Corki

Corki has been pretty out of meta for quite a while, and these changes aim to bring him back to the game a little bit.

Base AD: 55 ⇒ 59
AD Growth: 2.8 ⇒ 2.5
Base Health: 588 ⇒ 610
Health Growth: 105 ⇒ 103

Hwei

After a pretty weak release, he's getting quite a lot of buffs. These are probably Hwei (this is the second time I'm making this joke) too many buffs, and they are going to nerf him again.

Base Health: 550 ⇒ 580
Base Movement Speed: 325 ⇒ 330
Base Mana: 445 ⇒ 480
WW Shield Timing: As soon as the cast finishes ⇒ Instantly
WW Base Shield Values: 90/110/130/150/170 ⇒ 100/125/150/175/200
EW Setup Delay: 0.7 seconds ⇒ 0.65 seconds
EW Fire Delay: 0.35 seconds ⇒ 0.3 seconds
EW Chase Range: 500 ⇒ 600
EW Linger Duration: 1.35-3 seconds based on travel distance ⇒ 3 seconds

Naafiri

Naafiri has felt rather weak since nerfing her passive, so now Riot is going to look to give her some more mobility with a change to her E.

E - Eviscerate
- Cooldown: 11/10.5/10/9.5/9s >>> 10/9.5/9/8.5/8s

Warwick

Warwick is getting a bit of a boost, so he will be able to hunt down his targets even faster than before.

Q - Jaws of the Beast
- Monster Percent Health Cap: 100/125/150/175/200 >>> 150/165/180/195.210
  - Rank 1 threshold for this to take effect from 1666 (Lvl1 Gromp, both Buffs) >>> 2500
W - Blood Hunt
- Active Cooldown: 120/105/90/75/60s >>> 100/85/70/55/40s
- Bonus Movespeed 35/40/45/50/55% >>> 35/42.5/50/57.5/65%

Expected LoL Patch 13.24b Release Date

Patches usually come out every 2-weeks, so we believe that this mid-patch update could come out on December 20. This isn't confirmed yet, though, so we're going to have to wait and see when these changes hit live servers.
