League of Legends patch 8.12 Analysis / Shields down, Bruisers up andToplane Meta shift

in #gaming6 years ago

Dear Steemians and League players,

The next patch 8.12 is planned to be release on Wednesday 14th June.

Before entering the details of all the changes, here is a quick review of the major modifications coming with thi patch :

1 ) Shields have been heavily nerfed. All the most reliable shields in the games have been nerfed, either through duration or by affecting shield buffing Items.

2 ) Tanks/Bruisers have two new interesting items to fool around with the Atma's Reckoning and the Spear of Shojin. They will increase their tankiness while giving them the ability to do more reliable damage in extended fights.

3 ) Tri-force melee users will cry, as the sterak's gage does not increase base AD anymore (no more items does). And it is definitely the end of the Banner of Command meta since the item is removed.
