Breaking down all changes to champions in patch 7.15

Patch update 7.15 is finally live in League of Legends as the focus was on continuing to balance several champions with nerfs and buffs. Here’s a full breakdown of all the changes.

Besides the rework of Urgot, the Dreadnought in League of Legends, developers dropped patch update 7.15 this week to further balance gameplay out with various champions that either needed to be nerfed or buffed.

In the grand scheme of things, this latest patch update fixed some big issues with Kayn, the Shadow Reaper, as he was a bit buggy after being released in patch update 7.14. For those of you that played as him or unfortunately fell to his overpowered ways, you’d be happy to know that some glitches were fixed.

Courtesy of the Media Relations Department of League of Legends, below you’ll find all the latest updates to champions.

For all you Elise mains out there, her base attack damage has been nerfed since she was a bit too strong when clearing enemies in the jungle.

"Base statsBASE ATTACK DAMAGE :: 50.5 >>> 47"

Ezreal

Ezreal gets a buff to reduce the cooldown of his Q – Mystic Shot which is a great ability to reduce all his cooldowns if it strikes an enemy unit. He should be able to dominate his CS even more so thanks to this update.

Kayn

The newest champion in League of Legends gets a buff to his bonus Attack Damage ratio when it comes to his ultimate R – Umbral Trespass. Kayn also had a plethora of bugfixes that were addressed.

"R – Umbral TrespassRATIO :: 1.1 bonus attack damage >>> 1.5 bonus attack damage (Darkin form loses this ratio in favor of an enemy max health ratio, so is unaffected)>Bugfixes"

Lissandra gets some solid buffs to her mana per level and overall base attack damage. This should undoubtedly help her be more effective in team fights later on in matches and also with her overall CS.

Nothing much done with Twisted Fate besides an increase in his overall movement speed. Keep an eye out if he roams out of the mid lane.

"Base statsMOVEMENT SPEED :: 330 >>> 335"

Xerath

When it comes to late game opportunities, Xerath has been missing out due to his main abilities not packing enough punch. Developers buffed the slowness in his W – Eye of Destruction and buffed his ultimate R – Rite of the Arcane.
