We will be taking a look at the upcoming changes coming in Season 14 for Patch 14.12. A lot of champion buffs, nerfs, and adjustments along with item and other system changes. League of Legends Season 14 has been quite the roller coaster in terms of champion and item balancing, given the massive changes to Summoner's Rift, neutral objectives, and the meta overall.

Riot Games is always trying to innovate whilst retaining its core philosophy around how the game is intended to be played. Although off-meta picks do gain traction from time to time, we are now getting a basic idea of how we can expect for the meta will shape up.
