In particular, champions such as Yone, Yasuo, Gwen, Pantheon, Wukong, Neeko, Gangplank, Kalista, Lillia, and Karthus experienced various buffs. Those who are more or less familiar with the characters should have already realized that the meta will be deeply shaken. Now let’s start and take a quick look at the details of the patch notes.

Champion Updates

For a long time some champions were quite weak. In particular, Pantheon, which was played as the Jungle role a while ago, has moved away from the meta, in fact, it has not been preferred at all. Likewise, Wukong was one of the champions who suffered the same fate as the Pantheon.

In particular, some Esports players were playing the heroes who received buffs with the patch very well. For example, Turkish origin Mad Lions Top Laner “Armut” is a top Wukong player. With the new patch, Armut will start playing Wukong again. You can benefit from high LoL betting odds by following the matches of Mad Lions. This type of information you get about the players can allow you to make accurate predictions.

Now let’s take a look at how the champions have changed with the 12.7 patch.

Gwen

Played in Gwen Top lane, she is known for her high damage combined with her durability.

E – Skip ‘n Slash

• Cooldown refund upon first basic attack: 50 percent ⇒ 60 percent

R – Needlework

• Cooldown: 120/100/80 seconds ⇒ 100/90/80 seconds

Jayce

Jayce has long been a good choice for Top lane. Furthermore, his strength in the early game seems to have been reduced and his strength in the late game seems to be paved. In short, this is neither a nerf nor a buff.

• Health growth: 90 ⇒ 95
• Health: 560 to 2,090 (levels one to 18) ⇒ 520 to 2135 (levels one to 18)
• Base armor: 27 ⇒ 22
• Armor growth: 3.5 ⇒ 3.8 (armor at level 18 unchanged)

Gangplank

We’re reviewing the 3rd Top Lane character with Gangplank. Moreover, Gangplank, as you know, is a hard-to-play character who can inflict instant high damage. Besides, the base damage and mana reduction for his W seem to strengthen Gangplank a lot.

Passive – Trial by Fire

• Burn base damage: 55 to 225 (levels one to 18) ⇒ 55 to 310 (levels one to 18)

W – Remove Scurvy

• Mana cost: 80/90/100/110/120 ⇒ 60/70/80/90/100

Kalista

As you know, Kalista was one of the less played ADCs. However, although the new update is not very strong, it may make us see Kalista in Summoner’s Rift again.

• Base mana: 250 ⇒ 300
• Movement speed: 325 ⇒ 330
• Attack speed growth: 4 percent ⇒ 4.5 percent

Karthus

The Jungle and Mid lane hero Karthus has received a small buff for his “Q” ability.

Q – Lay Waste

• Damage against monsters: 85 percent ⇒ 95 percent

Lee Sin

Lee Sin is both a tank and jungle hero who can deal high damage. He could get very annoying, especially in the hands of players who played really well. Riot Games must have heard the voices of the players because they decided to nerf Lee Sin.

Besides, if you want to be constantly informed about such articles, you can follow our Esports articles. Moreover, you can quickly get information about the next patches and other details.

• Base AD: 68 ⇒ 66

Q – Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike

• Sonic Wave damage: 55/80/105/130/155 (+100 percent bonus AD) ⇒ 50/75/100/125/150 (+100 percent bonus AD)

• Resonating Strike minimum damage: 55/80/105/130/155 (+100 percent bonus AD) ⇒ 50/75/100/125/150 (+100 percent bonus AD)
• Resonating Strike maximum damage: 110/160/210/260/310 (+200 percent bonus AD) ⇒ 100/150/200/250/300 (+200 percent bonus AD)

Lillia

Lillia is a jungle hero just like Lee Sin. Furthermore she is considered one of the newcomers. As you know, League of Legends has more than 100 million monthly players. Also as players want to see more diverse champions, Riot Games is constantly trying to introduce new heroes into the game.

Passive – Dream-Laden Bough

• Healing against champions: 12 to 140 (levels one to 18) (+12 percent AP) ⇒ 12 to 140 (levels one to 18) (+20 percent AP)

W – Watch Out! Eep!

• Damage: 70/90/110/130/150 (+35 percent AP) ⇒ 80/100/120/140/160 (+35 percent AP)

Neeko

Neeko is a very powerful Mid lane and Support hero. However, her escape mechanics were insufficient because she was too fragile. Furthermore, Neeko’s W skill is buffed a little bit.

W – Shapesplitter

• Passive bonus magic damage: 50/70/90/110/130 (+60 percent AP) ⇒ 50/80/110/140/170 (+60 percent AP)
• Passive bonus movement speed: 10/15/20/25/30 percent ⇒ 10/17.5/25/32.5/40 percent

Pantheon

As a former Pantheon player, I can say that I love the buffs. Moreover, the buffing of the Aegis Assault skill looks great.

Base health regeneration: 9 ⇒ 7.5

Q – Comet Spear

• Tap Q length: 550 units ⇒ 600 units
• Tap Q width: 150 units ⇒ 120 units

E – Aegis Assault

• Pantheon is no longer slowed if moving backwards while E – Aegis Assault is active

R – Grand Starfall

• Pantheon now crashes down on his destination 0.25 seconds sooner

Rengar

Rengar is a very strong jungle champion. Especially Rengar is the nightmare of ADCs and can destroy them with a single combo when they are caught by him.

Q – Savagery

[New]: Q – Savagery’s bonus damage is reduced by 40 percent against structures

W – Battle Roar

Bonus magic damage against monsters: 65 to 130 (levels one to 18) ⇒ 85 to 150 (levels one to 18)

Bug fixes

Fixed a bug where Gromp did not grant Rengar a stack of Ferocity

Ryze

Ryze is often played in Solo and Mid lane. 

Q – Overload

• Magic damage: 70/90/110/130/150 (+45 percent AP) (+three percent bonus mana) ⇒ 70/90/110/130/150 (+50 percent AP) (+two percent bonus mana)

Wukong

Wukong had not been playing jungle for a long time. He was generally preferred as Top lane and rarely Jungle. Furthermore, with the new buff he received against jungle monsters, we can start to see him often in the jungle. Also, the buffs he received for his Q, W, and E skills put Wukong back in the meta.

Q – Crushing Blow

• Cooldown: 9/8.5/8/7.5/7 seconds ⇒ 8/7.5/7/6.5/6 seconds

W – Warrior Trickster

• Cooldown: 20/19/18/17/16 seconds ⇒20/18/16/14/12 seconds
• [New]: Wukong can now dash through terrain using W ⇒ Warrior Trickster

• Bonus magic damage against monsters: 50 percent ⇒ 80 percent

Yasuo

• Health: 490 > 520

Yone

R – Fate Sealed

• Cooldown: 120/100/80 seconds ⇒ 120/90/60 seconds

Zeri

First of all, Zeri is a new ADC hero in League of Legends. She is not preferred because she is a bit difficult to play. However, minor adjustments were made. She was already nerfed with the last patch, now she got a little nerf to reduce her damage.

• AD growth: 2 ⇒ 1.5
• Attack damage: 53 to 87 (levels one to 18) ⇒ 50 to 75.5 (levels one to 18)
• Base armor: 22 ⇒ 20
• Health growth: 90 ⇒ 95
• Health at level 18: 2,030 ⇒ 2,115

• Total physical damage: 10/15/20/25/30 (+110 percent total AD) ⇒ 7/9/11/13/15 (+110/112.5/115/117.5/120 percent total AD)
• [Update]: Q – Burst Fire now only applies on-hit effects once per cast
• [Update]: Zeri can now only gain one stack of R – Lightning Crash and one instance of E – Spark Surge cooldown reduction per Q – Burst Fire cast (excluding critical strikes)

W – Ultrashock Laser

• Magic damage: 40/75/110/145/180 (+100 percent total AD)(+60 percent AP) ⇒ 10/45/80/115/150 (+120 percent total AD)(+70 percent AP)

With tons of different types of game modes, GTA Online has undoubtedly become the primary selling point of GTA V. Players can complete missions, take part in races, engage in several PVP modes, as well as play the different heists in groups of two or four.

However, there are certain aspects of the online mode of GTA V that annoys regular and new players alike, and the fan base has complained about them a lot to Rockstar over the years. Some have been paid attention to, while others were left untouched.

The next Grand Theft Auto title is already rumoured to be in development, and here are five improvements that Rockstar needs to bring to GTA 6 Online.

Five changes needed in Grand Theft Auto 6: Online to make the game better

1. Banning modders and hackers:

The elephant in the room is the over the top presence of cheaters in Grand Theft Auto Online. From giving legitimate players modded money (which often results in a ban) to griefing other players in the lobby with harmful hacks that can easily ruin anyone’s day, cheaters have no doubt made the online mode a mess. Strong anti-cheat mechanics for the next GTA’s online mode is a no-brainer.

2: No tedious money grinding:

GTA Online functions on cash. Let’s face it- any desirable property, business or vehicle in GTA Online costs way too much, and if anyone is not keen on the shark cards, it takes several hours, or even days of endless grinding to be able to afford that one thing of desire. For the next GTA Online, Rockstar needs to either lower down the costs of purchasable objects or increase the average payout in missions and heists.

3. Proper balancing of cars:

Cars are a gigantic part of the GTA universe, and even in the online mode, there are hundreds to choose from. However, several cars in the supercar and hypercar classes are extremely overpowered compared to the others, creating a massive imbalance in races, ending up with everyone choosing the same vehicle.

4. Less futuristic aspects:

GTA Online’s story was originally supposed to be a prequel to the main story, which was set in 2013. However, several updates down the road have added many futuristic vehicles, weapons and game modes, which doesn’t fit in with the game’s present-day setting. Focusing more on realistic vehicles and game modes is something that Rockstar needs to focus on.

5. More engaging missions and heists:

With the addition of several contrasting game modes, the focus on the online missions and heists have faded out over the years, as players lost interest in replaying them. GTA 6’s online needs a bigger focus to improve its online missions and to make heists more engaging because that’s where the original DNA of the crime-focused Grand Theft Auto series lies.
