League of Legends patch 11.21 is going to buff six champions, nerf some meta soloq champions along with Conqueror & Goredrinker, introduce Dragonmancer 2021 skins, and more.

The 2022 preseason is just around the corner and before the biggest update of the year, Riot is focusing on balancing the game for soloq. And similar to the last patch, Riot Games confirmed that League of Legends patch 11.21 will also be soloq driven and it has some pretty big changes.

“We’ve got some more soloq champ tweaks and a few interesting system changes which should shake stuff up,” Riot Phlox on patch 11.21 changes.

Six champions — Viego, Teemo, Lux, Xayah, Jinx, and Sion are getting buffs on patch 11.21 while Akshan, Graves, Miss Fortune, Quinn, and Karthus are set to receive some notable nerfs.

Moreover, one of the most popular items of the current meta, Goredrinker is also getting some meta-defining changes along with Conqueror.

In patch 11.21, Riot is also going to test a “controversial” change by disabling /all chat in matchmade queues.
