ARAM 10.23 Micropatch is now live where Cannon Minion Stealth Detection’s Sight duration is now infinite.
In the League of Legends preseason patch 10.23, Riot Games had brought some significant changes to the ARAM. They entirely removed the Oracle’s Elixir from the item shop and made changes where Cannon minions and super minions now each have one charge of a modified Umbral Glaive’s Blackout passive giving visibility once detected.
However, a lot of League players were complaining that the removal of Oracle’s Elixir was utterly unnecessary as champions like Teemo and Shaco are insanely broken in the current patch. Furthermore, with all the new items and item rework, a lot of champions especially tanks are having an edge over other champions as well.
Therefore, League of Legends’ Game designer on Modes Riot Lowbo has shared an ARAM 10.23 Micropatch addressing a lot of the new problems.
“We just pushed an ARAM micropatch to live. Balance was very shaken up by the preseason changes, so we wanted to get this out ASAP,” Riot Lowbo on the new Howling Abyss changes.

In addition to the Micropatch, Riot Games has also shared an update on little legends on ARAM. A couple of months earlier, Riot said that they would remove Little Legends from ARAM due to concerns over gameplay clarity, limited player interest, and potential constraints. However, after getting a lot of feedback they decided to hold their decision shortly after that.
And today, Riot Games has said that “We are not going to be removing them from the game mode at this time.” And Little Legends will stay in ARAM for the “foreseeable future”.
