Winter Wonder Orianna

New Summoner Icon

Following the herd of six in the 11/19 PBE update, we have another new Poro summoner icon!

Texture Rebalances

We also have another set of texture rebalances in this patch! These texture changes are aimed at bringing older champions and skins in line with the current art style and will not be replacing other, more significant visual updates that might be planned down the road.

Malphite

Shen

Wukong

Xin Zhao

• No longer stacks on poisoned unit kill or on Twin Fang casts on enemy champions.
• Now, stacks once every 6 seconds (10 times per minute) and for every second that an enemy champion is poisoned.

• [Context from Stashu: Stack breakpoints adjusted to 100 / 250 / 500. Overall, these are hit sooner than the old 75/200/400 based on the new mechanics, but are definitely still up for discussion.]

• Noxious Blast (Q)

• Movement speed buff  now 20% at all ranks from 10/15 /20/25 /30%.

• [Context from Stashu: Delay changed to actually function as intended (previously hitting between 0.25 and 0.5s). Now has a 0.4s delay. With the reliability changes, it was a bit too reliable, so we set the delay at 0.4.]

• Twin Fang (E)

• Mana cost changed to 35/45/55/65/75 from 30/45/60/75/90.

• Now adds a debuff on the target which amplifies further poison damage by 25% for 5 seconds, stacks up to 2 times (50%).

• AP Ratio changed to 0.55 at all ranks from 0.4/0.45/0.5/0.55/0.6

• [Context from Stashu: Since we're adding damage elsewhere on the kit (mostly through this debuff), we decided to take a bit out of Twin Fang's late game.

Fiddlesticks

• Dread (Passive) is no longer an aura. Now reads "Fiddlesticks' spells and attacks reduce his target's Magic Resistance by 10 for 3 seconds."

• Dark Wind (E)  silence duration increased to 1.25 from 1.2
• Dark Wind (E) can no longer apply silence to the same target more than once per cast.

Sejuani

• [Nothing in this patch but ricklessabandon has preemptively shared a set of changes that will be coming to the PBE on Monday!]
