League of Legends patch notes – 13.14 finally adds Naafiri and Arena
League of Legends patch 13.14 is a big one, my friends – trust me, I got the update in a Word document and that’s a lot of pages. The MOBA‘s newest champion, Naafiri, will finally be unleashed on the public domain, as well as Arena, League of Legends‘ new 2v2v2v2 mode.
There’s a lot to unpack in 13.14, but the biggest additions are, of course, Naafiri and Soul Fighter. Naafiri, a Darkin mid-lane doggo with a passion for hunting down foes, is absolutely my favorite champion of the year so far. Apart from the fact her kit literally spawns more puppers to chase down the enemy squad, you can pet her using the old cursor we all know and love. Honestly, that’s the highlight right there.
Soul Fighter, however, is this summer’s overarching event. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Street Fighter, it’s accompanied by an all-new 2v2v2v2 mode, Arena. The skins look stunning (I need that Samira one) and the stage is set for an event quite unlike any other.
Aside from the new event and our somewhat adorable furry midlaner, there’s a slew of buffs and nerfs to champions from across the Rift. Following his popularity in pro play, the cute yet chaotic Milio is taking a few much-needed nerfs – particularly to his passive – and, at lower ELOs, Hecarim and Jax have been hit with the hammer in an attempt to cut down their armor and cooldowns respectively.
On the buff side, good ol’ Lissandra is getting a few buffs to her kit, as well as some new Thrall mechanics. Volibear is also finally getting a power boost, with W granting more healing over time.
Below are the champion buffs and nerfs from Riot’s League of Legends patch notes – otherwise, we’d be here for a very, very long time.
Q – The Darkin Blade
W – Pale Cascade
Passive – Iceborn
