#Lol patch 10.7 update
Rammus was an early possible target for the midseason tank update, but instead is getting a smaller update a patch later. Part of this is obviously due to people getting used to the intricacies of his new abilities, but Riot is adding bonus damage to his Q and making the knockup from his E increase depending on how long Zac charges up the ability. Zac received the short end of the stick in the tank updates, as his win rate plummeted from 50.99 percent before the changes to 42.91 percent after. To balance out the E nerfs for non-support Maokai, his Q has received some small buffs. The damage is being tuned down, but perhaps most importantly Empowered Saplings are now properly being treated as damage-over-time rather than three separate damage procs (previously, one Empowered Sapling would trigger Thunderlord’s Decree). His top and jungle win rates have hovered at about the 46 percent mark that they were at before the rework, but a staggering 54.68 percent of Maokai games this patch were played at support, with a 52.11 percent win rate.Ī big reason for support Maokai’s success is the ridiculous amount of damage done by his new Sapling Toss, which does bonus damage when the Saplings come from a bush. Maokai also saw significant gains from the midseason update - but at support. Her W has also been tweaked a bit for a slight increase in cooldown. This patch, Sejuani is getting a massive nerf to her passive in the early game, granting way less flat resistances at early levels. She was also banned in 7.22 percent of games on 7.9, higher than any other champion on the patch. Her jungle win rate sky-rocketed to 52.56 percent, and she’s played enough in the top lane to have a 51.76 percent win rate there, too. Sejuani saw the biggest boost of all the 7.9 changes, going from a below-average jungler hovering at a 48 percent win rate to arguably the strongest champion on the patch. These were the three tanks who got major updates in the midseason patch, and they’re all receiving follow-ups in 7.10. Follow-up to Sejuani, Maokai, Zac updatesĪll stats are Platinum+ ranked, from Champion.gg. For a list of all the changes, click here. We’ll try not to bog you down with too many details, but here are the seven things you really need to know before stepping onto the rift on Patch 7.10. The three champions that got reworks (Sejuani, Maokai and Zac) are all getting follow-up balance changes, and there are two new updates to go along with your normal list of balance changes and some exciting new features. This is the first patch since the big midseason update from two weeks ago, and there are a lot of tweaks to deal with the fallout of those big changes. As always, with the patch notes out on Tuesday, expect the patch to go live early Wednesday. The notes for League of Legends Patch 7.10 have arrived, with significant changes coming to the Rift this week.
