League of Legends patch 11.3 is going to focus on balancing the overpowered items and champions, while some underperforming champions are set to receive buffs as well.
Since the new Mythic items and items overhaul came out in the 2021 preseason, Riot had to push multiple hotfixes and updates to balance the new changes. However, even with so many balance updates, there are always some particular items and champions who pretty much take over the current meta.
League of Legends Gameplay Design Director Mark “Scruffy” Yetter has previewed League of Legends patch 11.3. And it seems overpowered items like Goredrinker, Sterak’s Gage, Deadman’s Plate, and some others are getting some notable nerfs, while Phantom Dancer and Force of Nature are set to receive buffs.
Furthermore, on patch 11.3, Seraphine is finally getting some nerfs, and Rell is also getting a major adjustment.
“Took a big sweep across items to find over and underperformers,” Riot Scruffy on patch 11.3 changes. “More reductions on systemic healing (but not all nerfs just shifting).”
