Tft 9.19 Patch Notes | New Items | Champion Nerfs/Buffs | New Champion Kai'sa

SYSTEMS

Player Damage Adjustments

"With the loot changes, we’ve noticed a slight acceleration in game speed leading to players going out much quicker than we intend. So we’re lowering player damage slightly."

• 1 Star, Tier 2: 2 ⇒ 1
• 2 Star, Tier 2: 3 ⇒ 2
• 3 Star, Tier 1: 4 ⇒ 3
• 3 Star, Tier 2: 5 ⇒ 4
• 3 Star Tier 3: 6 ⇒ 5

Mystery Box System Adjustments

"The new system has been a positive addition to the game, but needs some fine tuning, so we’re making a few adjustments."

• Common boxes average gold value decreased.
• Uncommon boxes average gold value decreased very slightly.
• Slightly lowered the odds of Gold Boxes showing up.
• Tier 4 units can no longer drop from Uncommon boxes.
• Slightly increased the odds of Neeko’s Help dropping from all boxes

TRAITS

Dragon

“Due to how easy it is to get Magic Resist and the lack of options on how to play around it, we’re lowering the strength of Dragon & Dragon’s Claw.”

• Dragon (2): 83% Magic Reduction ⇒ 75% Magic Reduction

Glacial

"Glacial Procs are a little too powerful, so we’re making a similar consistency change that we did to Swordbreaker and applying it to Glacial."

• Glacial Stun duration: 2sec ⇒ 1.5sec
• Glacial Stun chance: 20/30/45 ⇒ 20/33/50

Void

"With the addition of Kai’Sa, we wanted to lower the power of the early Void. However, we still want to open up more build options and reward those who fully commit to the void."

• (2) One random void champion deals true damage this combat.
• (4) All your void champions deal true damage this combat.

Yordle

"We’ve removed RFC's ability to ignore dodges, so now it only exists on Wild. Because of that, we’re pulling a bit of power back out of Yordle. The introduction of mittens also means we’re adding a new 9 piece chase option."

• Yordle Dodge chance: 35%/60% ⇒ 30%/60%/90%

General Trait Adjustments

• Assassin: (3) 75% Crit damage & 10% Crit chance / (6) 150% Crit damage & 25% Crit chance / (9) 225% Crit damage & 40% Crit chance ⇒ (3) 75% Crit damage & 10% Crit chance / (6) 150% Crit damage & 20% Crit chance / (9) 225% Crit damage & 30% Crit chance
• Ninja: Attack Damage and Ability Power: 50/70 ⇒ 50/80
• Noble: 25 Heal on hit ⇒ 30 Heal on hit
• Shapeshifter: Bonus Health: 60%/120% ⇒ 60%/100%
• Ranger: Trait activate chance: 30%/70% ⇒ 25%/70%

CHAMPIONS

New Added

Kai’Sa:

• Origin: Void
• Class: Ranger
• Class: Assassin
• Cost: 5
• Health: 700
• Armor: 20
• Attack Damage: 55
• Attack Speed: 1.25
• Starting/Total Mana: 50/125
• Ability: Killer Instinct - Kai’Sa dashes to the furthest enemy unit, shielding herself for (300/600/900) and gaining (30%/60%/90%) attack speed for 3 seconds. 

o      She’ll definitely be the most popular unit in the game. With the new changes on Voids uou can easily replace her for Vayne in Ranger comps and add one Void with her. Once she get the Void buff there will be no one to stop her.

Anivia

“Anivia has been underperforming for a 5 cost, so we’re changing her identity to be a strong unit that slows the attack speed of the back line.”

• Health: 700 ⇒ 750
• Attack Speed: 0.6 ⇒ 0.8
• Starting/Total Mana: 0/100 ⇒ 50/125
• Ability Targeting: Random ⇒ Furthest Target

Kassadin

“Kassadin has proven problematic as a dps champ who can also gain a shield and also drain mana. We’re shifting his identity into a front-line sorcerer and pulling out some of the damage.”

• Attack Damage: 50 ⇒ 40
• Attack Speed: 0.6 ⇒ 0.55
• Armor: 25 ⇒ 35
• Mana Steal & Shield Power: 20/40/60 ⇒ 25/50/75

     o   I don’t think this will be enough to get him out of the meta. You should be very optimistic to call this changes nerf. He might be even stronger with this changes.

Miss Fortune

"We’re adjusting Miss Fortune to be a powerful auto attacker for gunslingers who rarely casts. When she does cast, it’s a big one!"

• Health: 700 ⇒ 750
• Attack Speed: 0.85 ⇒ 0.95
• Mana: 0/75 ⇒ 0/150

• Rapidfire Cannon: No longer grants “Your attacks can’t be dodged”
• Titanic Hydra: 10% Max Health in a splash ⇒ 3% Max Health to target and adjacent enemies behind them. 

     o   For me this a huge nerf. In pbe you could stack 3 Hydras to Jayce and he could destroy all the board by himself when he transformed.”

• Zephyr: Now is a Unique item. “Which means cannot be stacked in one unit.

·         -Matchmaking is less streaky.

·         -Shyvana’s ability tooltip no longer says she prevents healing.

·         -Elise Spiderlings now have the correct stats.

·         -The range of Lucian’s ability will always equal his attack range.

Changed Items

Now Infinity Edge has a brand new recipe and Sword of the Divine has been deleted, with that two new items have been added to the game:

   

Deathblade

• Recipe: B.F. Sword + B.F. Sword
• Effect: On a kill or assist, gain an additional 15 Attack Damage until end of combat (Stacks infinitely).

   o This would make Draven an even stronger killing machine with Bloodthirster and RFC on him.

   

Giant Slayer

• Recipe: B.F. Sword + Recurve Bow
• Effect: Attacks deal an additional 5% enemy max Health as True Damage.

o   This means you’ll only need maximum of 20 basic attacks to kill any unit if the target has no hp regen item ie. Warmog, Bloodthirster, Hextech Gunblade. Since equipped unit’s damage also will work in addition, you won’t even need that much attacks most of the time. Could be build against Shapeshifter, Braum and Knight comps. 

New Component

   

Sparring Gloves

• Gives +10% Critical Strike chance and +10% chance to Dodge chance.
• When building an item out of Sparring Gloves, the item will convert its core stats to either the offensive (20% Critical Strike chance), defensive (20% Dodge chance) option. Thief's Gloves and Mittens get both.
