Unofficial PBE Patch Notes for 12/21 - READ FIRST-
A new patch has just hit servers. A few things to keep in mind as you are reading
- This post is still being formated, as long as you see table boxes, it's still being worked on
- ALL items had their text changed. 99% of the items that had no -real- change have already been pulled from the list
- A few items (such as HoG) where in the list with tooltip changes. THIS DOES NOT mean they are coming back, just that some files are still in the game client, and are not removed (probably was a batch change of text).
- These are Unofficial changes pulled from the Game Client (not the air client). These changes may be changed at any time, as this is the PBE
Champion Abilities

Posted 12/29/2012 10:40:37 AMIt's so painful to take a break and be away from PC for a week and see a wall of new articles and posts amassed meantime you have to read through...
Well, it's still nice to see Rengar and Diana buffed again after being overnerfed, and Ali's Headbutt restored to 650 range; Annie and Syndra getting some attention is a good news too, yet probably those buffs are still not enough to make them truly competitive; the only sad note is Riven: she has always been slightly overpowered but she's also very snowball-dependant, and if she falls behind it's hard for her to recover and have a decent lategame, so that base health regen and that ulti nerf together seem a bit too much.
Aside from that, Iceborn Gauntlet getting nerfed because of Ezreal was abusing of its passive with Mystic Shot, and Riot way to rebalance BFT seems to be heightening its price... SotEL now sucks a bit less and SotSW is still niche but looks pretty strong.
Overall I like these patch notes.

Posted 12/22/2012 9:44:29 AMI'm thinking possibly the 4.5% bonus health in Defense was making it a bit stronger than they would have liked? Or it can't be broken to stop the slow from it.
