Mid Lane Brand has too much value so Riot is nerfing a few things.

  • Passive – Happy Hour:
    • Healing: 6.5% of his Maximum Health >>> 5.5% of his Maximum Health.

Kalista

After the huge changes in Patch 14.10, Kalista has been pretty dominant. So, Riot is nerfing her, some would say gutting her even. Here are all the changes.

    • Minimum Damage: 75 – 175 >>> 0.

Taliyah

Riot is continuing to nerf Taliyah in the jungle.

  • Q – Threaded Volley:
    • Monster Bonus Damage: 25 (+ 5% AP) >>> 10 (+ 0% AP).

Zac

Riot has deemed that Zac is healing too much in lane. Thus, some nerfs are coming to his Passive healing.

    • Healing: 5/6/7/8% (based on R – Let’s Bounce! rank) of his Maximum Health >>> 4 – 8% (based on level) of his Maximum Health.

Champion Adjustments

So far, big changes are coming in this patch in terms of adjustments as Varus is getting a makeover.

Varus

Riot is tuning a lot of Varus’ kit as they are trying to shift power from Lethality Builds to On-Hit builds.

    • Attack Damage: 60 >> 57.
    • Attack Speed Growth: 4% per level >>> 3.5% per level.

Item and System Adjustments

No buffs or nerfs this time around for Items or other system changes but there are a few adjustments, notably to Dark Harvest.

Dark Harvest

Riot is taking a big stab at Dark Harvest and changing the damage profile. This will hurt champions like Karthus a lot.

  • Cooldown: 45 seconds >>> 40 seconds.
  • Damage: 20 – 80 (based on level) (+ 5 per stack)(+ 10% Bonus AD)(+ 5% AP) >>> 20 (+ 9 per stack)(+ 10% Bonus AD)(+ 5% AP).

Similar changes to Dark Harvest as Riot is reducing the damage on the rune while reducing the cooldown. Not as big of a change compared to Dark Harvest though.

  • Cooldown: 25 – 20 seconds (based on level) >>> 20 seconds.
  • Damage: 30 – 220 (based on level)(+ 10% AD)(+ 5% AP) >>> 50 – 190 (based on level)(+ 10% AD)(+ 5% AP).

The only item change this patch as Riot is adjusting the Lethality numbers and such.

  • Unique Passive – Preparation:
    • Lethality: 5 – 10.5 (based on level) >>> 5 – 10.5 (based on level) | 3 – 6.3 (based on level) [Melee | Ranged].
  • Unique Passive – Extraction:
    • Decaying Movement Speed: 150 >>> 200.

Skins

So far only two skins have been revealed for Patch 14.13. There could be more since this is a patch with a longer cycle.
