Riot Games

The latest League of Legends patch notes preview has been shared by Matt Leung-Harrison on X. The devs usually post the upcoming changes coming to LoL so that we can get a headstart as to what we can expect in the next patch. With that being said, League of Legends Patch 14.14 is looking to be very interesting balance-wise.  

The dev team constantly pushes updates to champions as well as in-game systems such as runes, items, or other aspects of League of Legends to ensure that the meta remains fun and fair as much as possible. With so many champions to work around, it can be quite difficult to manage everything, however, the community is constantly providing feedback to ensure that both the casual and competitive scenes remain in a good spot.
