Mid September Patch Inc!

( Edit: The patch as been applied! Syndra, Justicar Syndra, and Special Forces Gangplank are now available for purchase. Nemesis Jax and Oktoberfest Gragas are unavailable and will, presumably, become available for purchase in the near future. The new Lux splash art did NOT make it to live. )
 The Mid September Patch is coming! At 1:00 AM PST servers will be brought down to apply the patch, which will include Syndra, the new S2 Rating requirements, and a minor nonbalance changes

Here are the official patch notes:
"PvP.net 1.67
  • Players may now create up to 20 mastery pages, up from 10.

League of Legends v1.0.0.147
Syndra, the Dark Sovereign

  • Transcendent (Passive) - Spells gain extra effects at max rank.
    • Dark Sphere: Deals bonus damage to champions
    • Force of Will: Increases slowing duration.
    • Scatter the Weak: Spell width increased.
  • Dark Sphere – Syndra conjures a Dark Sphere dealing magic damage. The sphere remains and can be manipulated by her other powers.
  • Force of Will – Syndra picks up and throws a minion or Dark Sphere dealing magic damage and slowing the movement speed of enemies.
  • Scatter the Weak – Syndra knocks enemies and Dark Spheres back dealing magic damage. Enemies hit by Dark Spheres become stunned.
  • Unleashed Power – Syndra bombards an enemy Champion with all of her Dark Spheres.

Graves

  • Riot Graves is now properly flagged as having sunglasses.

Spectator Mode

  • Spectators can now rearrange the display positions of any player on the scoreboard in the bottom-center of the screen by dragging that player’s bar.
  • The scoreboard has been rearranged for easier team comparisons:
    • Champion portraits have been moved to the center of the scoreboard, with minion kills immediately adjacent.
    • Items are now automatically sorted to display more expensive items toward the center of the scoreboard.
  • While drag-scrolling (default: middle mouse click + drag), the camera will now wait to move until the player drags the mouse, rather than automatically moving in the direction of the initial click.
    • E.g. if a player middle-clicks the right side of the screen, the camera will no longer automatically move to the right. Instead, it will move based on where the player drags the mouse.
      • Max scroll speed remains the same and caps out at a drag length equal to the distance between the center and edge of the screen.
    • The mouse cursor will now disappear while drag-scrolling.

Co-op vs AI

  • Increased the variance in team composition makeups for Coop vs AI.

General

  • The time window for multikills has been increased to 10 seconds from the previous kills as opposed to 8."

  1. Wow, that was unexpected. No notes, warnings or anything! I assume the 'Syndra will be released at a future date' to be in this one

    1. Things with hidden passives and reacting to shades. Also, was I the only one who jumped a bit when they saw gragas move on the top of the screen?

      Delete
    2. Leona's hidden passive. Her sunlight deals 1 less dmg to any character who wears sunglasses or something similar to that

      Delete
    3. yeah, i totally jumped when seeing that gragas, too :D ok what were the hidden passives with shades? Leona's passive deals 1 less dmg is that all or did i miss smth?

    4. I didn't even notice Gragas up there; I clicked on the Read More thing at the bottom. Also, did anyone else notice the name of what he's drinking? Rengarbräu :D

    1. Agreed. If Riot does not respond to deal with the massive OP-ness that is Graves following this patch, I'm done. GG Riot and your OP sunglasses -_-

  8. ....No balance? This is even same as the official patch note on LoL site.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Variance in Coop vs AI games?
    does that means there are going to be more AI Champs?

    1. Don't think so; probably just more options when playing against them - Like maybe seeing Morgana mid rahter than bot or Leona/Nunu bot rather than top.

  15. fck didn't check the store. Is it on EUNE server too?

    1. Don't worry, there's no sign of Syndra coming to the EUNE/EUW servers... :(

      It's like, why is the community management and Riot staff at NA so much better? They get more info on server status and problems than we do, and they even have patches earlier...

      Not that I accuse Riot of favorising NA, but if you look closely, what I said above is true most of the time... :S

      Delete
    2. True, but I got used that EUNE always gets all patches first, like live beta server. pffft :(

      And they even put the announcement, and no signs of syndra now :(

    1. Hey, no reason to be angry ;) As far as I'm concerned, the refund system is still not available - seen some people saying they wish it went live.

    2. sorry, I am just waiting for it so long now and hoped it was on this patch ^^. Thank you :)
