Riot Games teased this week that its next big League of Legends patch would focus on “shaking up” the meta picks, and after that commitment, we’ve now gotten a better look at how that goal will be achieved. Changes for a total of 15 different champions were listed in a patch preview for Patch 12.7 this week with champions like Gwen, Pantheon, Yasuo, and Yone getting buffed while other picks often seen in competitive play have nerfs headed their way.

Zeri the carry is still very checks notes strong in pro play…The nerfs hit all builds, but should hurt bruiser more than crit. We’re making the ult stack slower and more consistently, no more 2x-5x stacks when hitting a grouped up team, but you get double stacks on crit! pic.twitter.com/74xQnje8RO
