Champions

Katarina, The Sinister Blade

Decisive in judgment and lethal in combat, Katarina is a Noxian assassin of the highest caliber. Eldest daughter to the legendary General Du Couteau, she made her talents known with swift kills against unsuspecting enemies. Her fiery ambition has driven her to pursue heavily-guarded targets, even at the risk of endangering her allies—but no matter the mission, Katarina will not hesitate to execute her duty amid a whirlwind of serrated daggers.

Katarina, The Sinister Blade

Katarina will be released later in the patch.

(Passive) Voracity: Whenever an enemy champion dies that Katarina has damaged recently, her remaining ability cooldowns are dramatically reduced. If Katarina picks up a Dagger, she uses it to slash through all nearby enemies, dealing magic damage.

(1) Bouncing Blade: Katarina throws a Dagger at the target that then bounces to nearby enemies before ricocheting onto the ground.

(2) Preparation: Katarina gains a burst of movement speed, tossing a Dagger into the air directly above herself.

(3) Shunpo: Katarina blinks to a location near a Dagger or unit, dealing damage to the nearest enemy. Picking up a Dagger reduces Shunpo’s cooldown.

(Ultimate) Death Lotus: Katarina becomes a flurry of blades, dealing damage over time and applying healing reduction. Katarina is able to slowly reposition for a short time.

Skins

All skins will be released throughout the patch.

Bilgewater Katarina

Death Sworn Katarina

Omega Squad Fizz

Omega Squad Teemo

Katarina’s Challenge

Katarina’s deadly knives are whirling into League of Legends: Wild Rift! Become the Sinister Blade and shred your targets with ruthless finesse.

Dates

Start – March 4th, 2021 / 00:01 UTC

End – March 10th, 2021 / 23:59 UTC

Missions

You’ll have to think like Katarina if you want to add her to your roster, and that means three things: Getting takedowns, doing damage, and repping Noxus.

Store

Katarina has Shunpo’d her way into the store!

Every blade has its price. If you don’t manage to earn her services with the missions above, a bit of coin will do the trick.

Bundle

Those looking to score extra style points with their takedowns might also consider picking up the Katarina Release Set for 2077 Wild Cores, which includes:

  • Katarina (50% off)
  • Death Sworn Katarina
  • Bilgewater Katarina

Champions

Ashe

For an ability that already requires attacks to be cast at full potential, (1) Ranger’s Focus felt a little bit too gated. Removing some of the cooldown to help improve the flow of using this ability.

(1) Ranger’s Focus

Cooldown: 8/7/6/5s → 7/6/5/4s

Darius

Darius has been slightly underperforming in higher levels of play so we are making his successful ability hits a bit more rewarding.

(1) Decimate

Missing health heal %: 12 to 36% → 15 to 45%

(3) Apprehend

Slow duration: 1s → 1.5s

Ezreal

Ezreal has been slightly weak since our last round of nerfs. Reverting the nerf to his (1) Mystic Shot we did back in Patch 1.1 to help him catch up.

(1) Mystic Shot

Base damage: 20/50/80/110 → 20/55/90/125

Lulu

Everyone has tasted enough purple by now. We’re taking a larger swing at nerfing Lulu after seeing her win rate climb too far as people got better at playing her. These changes should help create more room for opponents when playing against her.

Base Stats

Base health: 570 → 530

Movement speed: 330 → 325

(2) Whimsy

Polymorph duration: 1.25/1.5/1.75/2s → 1/1.25/1.5/1.75s

(3) Help, Pix!

Shield duration: 5s → 2.5s

Cast range: 7 → 6

(Ult) Wild Growth

Cast range: 8 → 7

Miss Fortune

Miss Fortune’s baseline defenses and waveclear are a bit too high given her ranged profile when compared to other marksmen. We’re adjusting her so dealing damage to her is more significant in stopping her from strutting to victory.

Base Stats

Base armor: 35 → 30

Base health regen: 9 → 6

Base health regen per level: 0.81 → 0.55

21 at level 15 → 14 at level 15

(P) Love Tap

Love Tap Damage vs minions: 100% → 50%

[Bugfix] Love Tap Damage vs monsters: 50% (Unchanged – now in tooltip)

Olaf

Olaf’s been overly consistent as a champion who is supposed to take risks to deal damage. We are toning down his utility and early game power to make him less generally powerful.

Base Stats

Base armor: 40 → 35

Base AD: 70 → 64

(1) Undertow

Slow: 30/35/40/45% → 20/25/30/35%

Slow duration: 2.5s → 2s

Varus

Varus is just a nudge from being in a really healthy spot. We are amping up his fun and unique ability to help him solidify his identity in the marksman roster.

(1) Piercing Arrow

Cooldown: 18/16/14/12s → 16/14/12/10s

Vayne

Vayne is a bit weaker in the duo lane than we’d like and is at risk for being the most affected by the Blade of the Ruined King changes (see below). Doing some preemptive light buffs that we think make her stronger when sharing lane with a partner than by herself.

(3) Condemn

Damage on terrain stun: 75/120/165/210 → 105/145/185/225

(Ult) Final Hour

Cooldown: 100/80/60s → 90/75/60s

Xayah

Xayah released weaker than expected. Giving her a large buff to help her soar.

(1) Double Dagger

Base damage: 35/65/95/125 → 50/75/100/125

(2) Deadly Plumage

Bonus attack speed: 25/30/35/40% → 35/40/45/50%

(3) Bladecaller

Cooldown: 12/11/10/9s → 11/10/9/8s

AD ratio: 0.6 → 0.8

(Ult) Featherstorm

Base damage: 100/200/300 → 125/250/375

Items

Blade of the Ruined King has risen to the top in all builds for marksmen even when its effect doesn’t seem like it would synergize that well with the individual champion. We are nerfing it and also shaping it so that the identity of the item is more in line with attack speed-based champions. We’re not seeing melee champions abusing this item, however, and we will be increasing its on-hit damage from melee attacks to keep it relatively power-neutral for melee users.

Blade of the Ruined King

Attack damage: 30 → 20

Attack speed: 30% → 35%

On-hit damage

Melee: 6% → 9% of current enemy health physical damage

Ranged: 6% of current enemy health physical damage (unchanged)

Drain movement speed duration: 3s → 2s

Many champions are overly benefitting from the power of Liandry’s Torment. We are tuning this item’s AP down as its identity should be more about dealing tons of damage in long fights through its passives than simply being a very strong AP stat stick. We’re adjusting Haunting Guise to accommodate this change.

Liandry’s Torment

Ability power: 90 → 70

Total cost: 3150g (unchanged)

Combine cost: 800g → 950g

Haunting Guise

Ability power: 35 → 25

Total cost: 1450g → 1300g

Upgrade cost: 950g → 800g

Free-To-Play Champion Rotation

Mar 4 – Mar 10: Aurelion Sol, Fiora, Gragas, Kai’Sa, Lee Sin, Lulu, Sona, Teemo, Tristana, Twisted Fate

Mar 11 – Mar 17: Alistar, Amumu, Braum, Camille, Evelynn, Jhin, Seraphine, Singed, Vayne, Yasuo
