LoL Patch 13.5 Changes: Champion and System Adjustments

Champion Adjustments

Azir

Base Stats

  • Base health reduced: 622 ⇒ 550
  • Base mana reduced: 380 ⇒ 320
  • Mana growth increased: 36 ⇒ 40
  • Base Attack Speed increased: 0.625 ⇒ 0.694
  • Attack Speed Ratio increased: 0.625 ⇒ 0.694
  • Attack Speed Growth increased: 3% ⇒ 4%

Passive – Shurima’s Legacy:

  • Tower cooldown reduced: 180s ⇒ 90s
  • Tower AP ratio increased: 15% ⇒ 50%

Q – Conquering Sands

  • Base Damage reduced: 70-150 ⇒ 60 – 120
  • AP ratio increased: 30% ⇒ 45%
  • Mana cost increast: 55 flat ⇒ 60 – 80

W – Arise!

  • Mana cost reduced: 40 ⇒ 30

E – Shifting Sands

  • Mana cost reduced: 60 ⇒ 45

It seems like the recent Azir changes haven’t quite hit the mark for Riot. They are still working on further adjustments for the Emperor of the Sands, but let’s be honest: Will Azir ever be a balanced champion?

Nidalee

Passive – Prowl

  • Monus MS in brush increased: 10% ⇒ 20%

R – Aspect of the Cougar

  • Cooldown reduced: 3s ⇒ 1.5s

Also worth mentioning: Nidalee is set to receive a Voice Update in LoL Patch 13.5. This is already in light of the Milio release, since she is supposed to take an important role in the Ixtal enchanter’s lore.

System Adjustments

ARAM Changes

  • Inhibitor Towers now gain a Fortification buff that reduces incoming damage by 30% for 60 seconds after the outer turret is destroyed
  • All towers now gain bonus damage and resist every minute
  • Towers now decay resists at 30 minutes and HP at 45 minutes (most likely ARAM clash only)
