Silence from a lost voice is the loudest noise

@gnarcader Do we really have to pick a first and last name now? Looks ugly as hell

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

No1 bans this champ, no1 wins on this champ and ur nerfing it while
Its ranked the 63th out of 64th toplaner. Good job bro, cant wait for worlds to hostage my champ for another month. Clowns

[Matt Leung-Harrison @RiotPhroxzon]

Patch 26.20 Full Preview!

Rocketbelt
- We're adjusting rocketbelt to be much more about the go in aspect of it and less power budget in the haste
- The haste is adding a lot to the repeatability for mages in particular, but also as a burst oriented item, it means that the item broadly isn't creating the right tradeoffs with other items like Cosmic Drive, etc. that should be purchased for the higher haste values

Lillia
- Lillia's changes last patch were a good start, but we feel we can go a bit further on the Sleep changes
- Overall, we want to do a better job of balancing Lillia between skill levels and Lillia typically struggles at the higher skill brackets, especially after we made her early clears a lot weaker
- Average play Lillias often don't get the most out of her Sleep duration, whereas higher skill players are much better at coordinating around it

Diana JG
- Diana mid is in a mostly fine spot, but Diana Jungle, which plays more like a bruiser and builds a lot more health needs a little more help
- Overall, we're not looking to add a ton of power to Diana as she does get a bit statchecky when strong

Neeko
- Neeko support (and Mid) have been a bit worse for wear
- Neeko support has become a lot weaker, especially at the higher levels of play after we made adjustments to her Clone and its interaction with vision
- We think Neeko could use a little more power as a result

Smolder
- Smolder has also been on the weaker side after we made a bunch of adjustments to Black Cleaver and Deathfire Touch several months ago
- We're continuing to add more power to him, but into his Crit builds as his Bruiser builds have worse counterplay given his scaling profile

Vayne
- With the nerfs to experimental Hexplate this patch (for her Top lane), we feel like we can give Vayne a little power in bot lane
- She still has builds in Top that don't build Hexplate, but we're more OK with those as she isn't as durable while dishing out a lot of damage

Yunara Ashe
- We've added an Ashe nerf into the patch as she is one of the dominant pairings on the patch, even with the Hurricane nerf (as a lot of her builds don't build it)
- We're also adding a moderate nerf in for Yunara as her level 1 laning is a bit too strong given how well she scales
- We expect after this and the Lucian buffs for the bot meta to be in a much better spot

Pulled Changes (Varus, Sylas)
- We pulled Varus and Sylas from the patch
- Varus because we feel like we need larger work on him to make his builds more satisfying and make sense
- Sylas, because we don't feel comfortable changing him overall without messing up his role balance, especially given the Protobelt changes in the patch

@RiotPhroxzon @SkinSpotlights I like how you say you care about soloq when u clearly dont give a fuck. Are we gonna rebuff pro jailed champs after worlds or just going to keep griefing 99.9% of players who actually allow you to have ur job? Ksante is unplayable in soloq, this nerf is so cringe

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@RiotPhroxzon @RiotPhroxzon Atleast give me one solid reason why this unplayable champion in soloq should get a nerf, it literally is already extremely boring to play in comparison to previous iterations and now we are just killing him? No1 asked for this, no1 cares about pro play. Let us play

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@RiotPhroxzon This is what we're nerfing?

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@Aatreuslol Trash champ? Riot: lets nerf!

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@RiotPhroxzon Qiyana jungle, talon jungle, syndra where?

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@SungodCN https://t.co/ysWoDsiGiG HARD ROLE BRO

[Marcin Jankowski @JankosLoL]

JG in 2026

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@FelrynX Get this dog company to nerf raid gear so we can play keys without doing weekly 20 man chore

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@julianolol_ @ImpeLoL Theres a handful of those that are free of charge that personally I dont use because none of them have features that would be beneficial to me, what makes this one so much better you'd add a price to it?

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@ramus_lol @SungodCN

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@ramus_lol @SungodCN Tell me ur a jungle main without telling me ur a jungle main

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@Phantasm_EUW First good take from akshan main, wp. Dont forget to remove sylas and talon from jungle when ur done with qiyana @RiotPhroxzon

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@KaidoJungle Mid is a lot more limited than people think, id swap sup and mid and agree with the rest

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@SungodCN Spoken like a true jungler, delusional. Keep full clearing buddy

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@SungodCN No. I am not, jungle is the easiest by far, u can even full clear on yuumi now. Only junglers will somehow look for ways to argue that a pve role in a pvp game is hard. Keep dreaming

[Scream @Scream_EUW]

@aidenyasuo 100%

[AidenYasuo @aidenyasuo]

Jungle is the most OP role while being the easiest role.

Over the past few years, Riot added/removed

+ Jungle timers
+ Jungle pets (can’t die)
+ Leash-range indicators
+ Recommended paths
+ Soft resets on camps

- Kiting camps
- Double camping
- Counter jungling

Noob role xdd

@TheRealYGV3 @RiotPhroxzon May she never return to toplane, disgusting champ
