News 26.17 Patch Preview

"Patch 26.17 Preview!

This patch is mostly a stabilization patch after observing the adjustments made on 26.16.

Mages bot overall have lost some amount of winrate across the board, but not a huge amount, which is roughly about the impact we're looking for.

So far, we're seeing good skews on Poppy and Camille support with support nerfed and Top skews playing out well (in particular).

We're still monitoring the impact of Hail of Blades on champions more broadly, eg. Yi, Trynd, Shaco, etc. Stormrazor"

>>> Champion Nerfs <<<

"Champion wise, a pretty standard set of nerfs here, mainly for power impacting outliers."

Nasus

Thresh

Xerath

Graves

Nocturne

Vayne

>>> System Buffs <<<

Stormrazor

"Outside of Stormrazor Jhin, it doesn't have a large user base and we think it could have more power overall to broaden the user pool"

>>> System Nerfs <<<

Sundered Sky

"Directionally, Sundered Sky and AP Jungle changes have been good, but magnitude is still off

We're putting another small-moderate nerf in for this patch and hoping to see more movement on AP jungles and Sundered Sky dominance in higher levels of play"

His lanes should be ass, he scales so hard his early should blow hard

Careful, if his lanes get too ass, asol jungle will become his new home. The jungle is where riot loves to put scalers who have bad early games.

Wait till Asol went to botlane because he would probably stack faster there compare to mid.

Asol has moved to botlane for quite some time now :)
Stacks better and has less hardcounters.

Every patch there is a new bug on asol. Because not a lot of people play him, it doesn't get covered much. There's effort made to reach out to Vandril and rioters but nothing ever came from that.. a rioter went into the Asol subreddit last May and ask for a bug list and nothing was fixed besides visual bugs on his E execute.

He wins against Vlad if the asol is good
