Administrators

Patch 14.20 is shaping up to be yet another massive patch.

The last couple of patches in League of Legends were massive, especially the previous one. Patch 14.19, referred to as the mid-season patch, is arguably the biggest patch of the season.

The patch brought to the game many sweeping changes such as the K’Sante and Trintana mini-reworks. Additionally, there were the item changes, which resulted in almost all Legendary items being nerfed one way or another. There was also the resurrection of Lethal Tempo and the addition of new New Notification and Pings. Overall, it was a massive patch.

However, with every massive patch, there comes the need for even more rebalancing and adjustments and Patch 14.20 is looking to fulfill the role.

Similar to previous patches, Patch 14.20 is going to be massive. So, we have a lot to cover so let’s get into it.
