Mid August Patch Notes

Posted on at 6:14 PM by Moobeat
The Mid August Patch notes are up! Stay tuned to this thread to track the patch's status as its being applied to the live servers.

Pretty much everything is here, in far better detail than we saw for the tentative PBE notes. No Rengar just yet, but this is something we've come to expect after the last few champions. There are also a few undocumented changes that you can find way down at the bottom of the post.

  • Neutral Mobs in the jungle now have sounds! The wolves growl, the Wraiths hiss and snarl,  and the golems pounds their fists together. I may be wrong, but I believe there is a new sound when you attack the turrets as well.

    1. Ap teemo's existance is pretty much a blight on all of the league of legends. Hopefully it loses popularity and losing matches to auto locking ap teemos becomes less common

      Delete
    2. *Facepalm. A Teemo is completely liable, even if it`s not as effective as hybrid. An AP Teemo has a chance to bounce back by getting kills through proper shroom placement, while hybrid or AD will have to be a strong presence in team fights to recover if they do bad early game.

    5. "Shitty" champ? Just because you can't play her doesn't mean others can't.

      Delete
  5. If you look at the ratios on Katarinas spells you can clearly see that her rework is a big nerf, even with the new damage ability. Her ultimate only gets 10 sec. instead of 15 sec. cdr for kills and assists and the she doesn't get extra 25g for killing or assisting someone
