Patch 13.2 Cancelled as Riot Deploys Balance Adjustments


TFT Patch 13.1C notes reveal a list of 50 balance adjustments for champions, traits, Augments, and more.


“In the mean-time we didn’t want to leave players with a four-week patch, letting things sit the way they are” stated Riot Developer Mortdog in the Patch Rundown video. Riot’s TFT team had to cancel the upcoming patch after a cyber attack that disrupted the development of League of Legends and few more Riot titles. The changes are although “few” in number compared to the large amount of meta-shifting adjustments earlier planned to release with Patch 13.2. The 13.1 patch cycle is probably one of the rarest updates in TFT history to receive a C patch. Players can,however get a glimpse of the big changes outlined for Patch 13.3 now live on PBE servers here.

TFT Patch 13.1C Notes Trait Changes

However, the to popularize using Aegis for weaker unitts such as Vi, Riot’s TFT team are strengthening the trait even further. With a bump in Magic Resist from 20/35/50/75 to 20/40/60/90, Aegis’s impact as an end game carry trait is going to improve even further. Sureshot receives a slight nerf to the Attack Damage bonus, which in turn intendeds to decrease Samira’s late game dominance using the trait. “We’re happy to be able to get our Sureshot nerf into your hands as we’ve seen 2 Sureshot provide too much value in endgame boards that are able to stall with powerful frontlines that capitalize on the ramping damage of the trait.” stated the TFT dev team.

 We attempted to ship this Ezreal buff in 13.1, but he must have blinked away at the last second. But this time we’re buffing him with targeted abilities. They say cats have nine lives, but our Yuumi nerfs in patch 13.1 may have taken all nine. We’re giving Yuumi back some damage, but if you’re feline fear after 12.23 Yuumi, know that her old damage at 3-stars was 600, had even more range, and was greatly enhanced by a since-nerfed Supers. All I’m saying is, this is not a resurrection.

Bel’Veth slaps now come with significantly more squeals of delight. Context only applies to players fielding Bel’Veth. We went back and forth on whether Miss Fortune cast her ability too often, or whether her ability did too much damage. Ultimately, we decided it did too much damage, damage that is made more consistent with her upgraded targeting in patch 13.1.

In view of the upcoming Gadgeteen rework in Patch 13.3, Riot has deployed a receives a minor Armor and Magic Resist buff for mildly under-performing champion Nunu. “Despite the 13.1 changes meant to encourage Aphelios’s itemization and use of Infernum (Blue) and Severum (Red) guns, his Gravitum (Purple) gun is still the default choice due to its utility. We’re doubling down on the identity of his guns, and reducing the damage and scaling of Gravitum even more while increasing the scaling of his Infernum gun and the base damage of both Infernum and Severum.”

  • Aphelios Attack Damage: 75 changed to 80
  • Aphelios Gravitum (Purple) Attack Damage ratio: 150/150/1500% changed to 130/130/800%

TFT Patch 13.1C Notes Hero Augments

Riot Mortdog starts off the Augment Balance changes by including a minor nerf to Cruel Patch heal regeneration. The upcoming nerf will would still allow players Level 6 and 7 with it early, but it would now more effort to sustain health in order to win the game. “We aren’t that cruel though, so instead we’re slowing down the Tactician healing that comes with it, making early power leveling riskier, for longer.” Sivir’s Endless Pizza Augment receives a list of nerfs to prevent the augment from performing too well in the current meta. The list of Hero Augment changes intend to ‘shake up the meta in a healthy way”, allowing room for more options and comps to push through.

On the other hand, Radiant and Ornn items receive a series of balance adjustments to keep the meta at a ‘manageable and appropriate level.” Manazane receives a mana restore nerf, while the Collector receives an AD nerf. Anima Visage should now regenerate health less, and in turn, heal less. The Sejuani item also receives a a Base Health bump from 150 to 250.
