Riot Games previewed the next League of Legends update this week as it usually does around the halfway point between the two-week patch cycle, but this patch preview is a bit different. Instead of the normal two weeks between updates, we’ll see three weeks past between Patch 12.12 – the one after the release of Bel’Veth – and Patch 12.13 which is scheduled to release on July 12th. To make up for that longer patch cycle and to fix any outliers that could become more problematic during the wait for the next patch, Riot is planning to release a micropatch later this week.
We’re planning for a 12.12 micropatch to hit some outliers for 30 Jun and 12.11 champs that were hit too hard (Kat, Shaco). The rest will be in 12.13, but it will be delayed a week and start coming out ~July 12. Buffs for bursty champs are targeted at non-burst axes mostly pic.twitter.com/VPo30mVhel
