League of Legends Patch 13.16 brings a lot of buffs to weak choices to arena to keep them competitive over the other choices.
League of Legends Patch 13.16 Arena Changes
Find the full League of Legends Patch 13.16 Notes here.
Dev note: We’ve got 44 changes, mainly looking to bolster champions that could use the help in Arena while addressing some overperforming champions/augments/items.
Having tapped down a lot of the powerful Arena competitors last patch, in this patch we’re focusing more on bolstering up champions that haven’t been able to find as much success in the Arena. We’re still tackling some of the strongest champions, Augments, and items with some nerfs, but primarily focused on giving weak ones some more power to compete.
