Patch 8.6 is on the way and the official patch notes have been posted!
Continue reading for more information!
Here are the full Patch 8.6 notes (be sure to check regional editions for slight variations!):
Greetings, Summoners,
Welcome to patch 8.6, the next big patch in our little patch, big patch cycle. This time around, we're taking a look at Duskblade and how it affects its core users. We think it brings too much power, but we wanted to make sure we gave those champions additional power if we're stripping some from Duskblade.
Then, we're introducing two new runes: one for champions who want to stay in fights for extended durations, and another for squishy champions who want a burst of early durability.
Finally, while we're mostly happy with where they've ended up since the update, we're still tweaking some of the mage items.
GLHF,
Mattias "Gentleman Gustaf" Lehman
Paul "Aether" PerscheidPatch Highlights
Duskblade Champions
Duskblade of Draktharr
Nightstalker damage decreased and equalized between ranged and melee champions. Melee basic attacks instantly kill wards disabled by Duskblade. Blackout won't trigger during Red Sweeper.
Nightstalker is responsible for too much of the damage of its core users, making them overbearing when they can purchase it early, and underwhelming if they delay or don't purchase the item. We're pulling some of the strict nuking power out of the item and putting some of that strength into the item's vision control. Some of the lost damage will also be compensated directly into the kits of its core users.
NIGHTSTALKER DAMAGE (MELEE)65-320 (at levels 1-18) ⇒ 30-200 (at levels 1-18)
NIGHTSTALKER DAMAGE (RANGED)45-300 (at levels 1-18) ⇒ 30-200 (at levels 1-18)
NEWONEMelee basic attacks instantly kill traps/wards that are disabled by Blackout
NEWREDUNDANCYBlackout won't be triggered if the owner is currently using a Sweeping Lens or Oracle's Alteration
Graves

Kayn
W and R ratios increased.
W - Blade's Reach
RATIO1.2 bonus attack damage ⇒ 1.3 bonus attack damage
R - Umbral Trespass
RATIO1.5 bonus attack damage ⇒ 1.75 bonus attack damage (Rhaast's ratio unchanged)
Kha'Zix
Q base damage down; ratio increased; bonus vs isolated targets increased. W bonus damage to monsters removed.

W - Void Spike
At the moment, the monster damage in W ties Kha'Zix to the jungle. We'd like to give him a chance to spread his wings elsewhere, so we're swapping that power for a bigger Q buff than the Duskblade changes warrant alone.
REMOVEDVOID MONSTERNo longer deals bonus damage to monsters
Nocturne
R base damage increased at later ranks. R damage ratio increased.
R - Paranoia
BASE DAMAGE150/250/350 ⇒ 150/275/400
RATIO1.2 bonus attack damage ⇒ 1.5 bonus attack damage
Rengar
Q damage ratio increased. E damage ratio increased. R damage ratio increased. Several Q and E bugfixes.
While Rengar does often build Duskblade, this is also a part of our extended cleanup of Rengar after the recent Q revert.
Passive - Unseen Predator
FEROCITY LOCKOUT FOR Q AND E0.25 seconds ⇒ 0.1 seconds
UPDATEDTHAT ONEFerocity lockout after using an empowered spell only applies on the slot you just cast

BUGFIXFixed a bug where Nighthunter Rengar and Mecha Rengar weren't playing the proper particles on Q
E - Bola Strike

R - Thrill of the Hunt
LEAP BONUS DAMAGE0.3 total attack damage ⇒ 0.5 total attack damage
Shaco
Q now grants Shaco's next basic attack bonus physical damage.
Q - Deceive
NEW?SURPRISE STABShaco's next basic attack after Deceive now also deals 10/20/30/40/50 (+0.7 bonus attack damage) (+0.3 ability power) bonus physical damage
Talon
Passive damage now continues scaling after level 11, until level 18. R ratio increased.
Passive - Blade's End
BASE DAMAGE75-175 (at levels 1-11) ⇒ 75-245 (at levels 1-18) (damage between levels 1-11 unchanged)
R - Shadow Assault
DAMAGE RATIO0.8 bonus attack damage ⇒ 1.0 bonus attack damage

RATIO1.1 total attack damage ⇒ 1.1/1.2/1.3/1.4/1.5 total attack damage
Zed
Q damage to targets beyond the first decreased. Landing multiple shurikens on the same target no longer deals reduced damage. R damage amplification increased at later ranks.
Q - Razor Shuriken
PASSTHROUGH DAMAGE60% to targets beyond the first ⇒ 50% to targets beyond the first
REMOVEDMULTI-HIT PENALTYLanding multiple shurikens on same target no longer causes each beyond the first to deal only 75% damage
R - Death Mark
STORED DAMAGE25/35/45% damage dealt during Death Mark ⇒25/40/55% damage dealt during Death Mark
Champions
Kai'sa
Attack range increased. Passive and Q ability power ratios increased. Q range increased. W ability power ratio decreased. E cast time decreased. E movement speed increased. R radius increased.
Kai'Sa's a new champion, and that means that players are still learning how she works—and in a lot of ways, so are we. One thing that really stands out is that? she does pretty well in the games where she gets ahead, but currently she's struggling pretty hard to ever get leads in the first place.
The main culprit is her laning phase, where her low range makes it hard for her to get the good trades she needs, so we're starting by minorly buffing her range. We're also buffing the mobility her E gives, both by increasing the movement speed and decreasing the cast time, which should allow her a bit more positional freedom to choose when and where she fights.
Her ability power ratios are also way too low to fulfill her flexible itemization fantasy, and with the Guinsoo's Rageblade changes below, we have some room to make those ratios a lot stronger.
Base stats
ATTACK RANGE500 ⇒ 525
Passive - Second Skin
STACK RATIO0.1/0.15/0.2/0.25/0.3 ability power (on applying 1st/2nd/3rd/4th/5th Plasma stack) ⇒ 0.2/0.25/0.3/0.35/0.4 ability power (on applying 1st/2nd/3rd/4th/5th Plasma stack)
PLASMA DETONATION RATIO2.5% target's missing health per 100 ability power ⇒ 3.75% target's missing health per 100 ability power
Q - Icathian Rain
RANGE575 ⇒ 600
RATIO PER MISSILE0.2 ability power ⇒ 0.4 ability power
AP RATIO FOR 6 MISSILES0.5 ability power ⇒ 1.0 ability power
W - Void Seeker
RATIO0.65 ability power ⇒ 0.45 ability power
NOT A NERFVoid Seeker deals the same amount of damage due to Second Skin's buffs above. Evolved Void Seeker deals more damage than before.
E - Supercharge
CAST TIME1.5-0.75 seconds (at 0-100% bonus attack speed from items and levels) ⇒ 1.2-0.6 seconds (at 0-100% bonus attack speed from items and levels)
MINIMUM BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED40/45/50/55/60% ⇒55/60/65/70/75%
MAXIMUM BONUS MOVEMENT SPEED80/90/100/110/120% ⇒110/120/130/140/150%
R - Killer Instinct
RADIUS AROUND ENEMY CHAMPIONS500 ⇒ 525
NEWTHINKING AHEADKiller Instinct's shield is now granted on-cast. Still lingers for 3 seconds after dash ends.
Lee Sin
Passive energy return increased at later levels. Q range increased. R base damage increased.
Losing Tracker's Knife has taken away some of the consistency of Lee Sin's playmaking potential. We're looking to put some of that back into his kit.
Passive - Flurry
FIRST ATTACK ENERGY RETURN20 ⇒ 20/25/30 (at levels 1/7/13)
SECOND ATTACK ENERGY RETURN10 ⇒ 10/12.5/15 (at levels 1/7/13)
Q - Resonating Strike
RANGE1100 ⇒ 1200
R - Dragon's Rage
BASE DAMAGE150/300/450 ⇒ 150/375/600
Lucian
W base damage increased. R damage ratio increased.
The buffs to Press the Attack certainly helped Lucian, but he could still use some more damage.
W - Ardent Blaze
BASE DAMAGE60/100/140/180/220 ⇒ 85/125/165/205/245
R - The Culling
RATIO PER SHOT0.20 total attack damage >> 0.25 total attack damage
MAX RATIO4.0/5.0/6.0 total attack damage ⇒ 5.0/6.25/7.5 total attack damage
Quinn
Base attack damage decreased. Attack damage growth increased. Many bugfixes and quality of life changes.
Quinn has a lot of bugs and feel-bad moments. We're smoothing out many of those frustrations, which should lead to Quinn feeling better to play (and being stronger).
Base stats
BASE ATTACK DAMAGE62 ⇒ 59
ATTACK DAMAGE GROWTH2.4 ⇒ 3
Passive - Harrier
SEE VULNERABILITYAttacks now trigger Vulnerable marks that appear on their target while they are in flight
NEWHEAR VULNERABILITYNew audio cues have been added for hitting a target with a Vulnerable mark
R - Behind Enemy Lines
NEWSTRIKE FROM THE SKIES!Skystrike now applies Vulnerable mark to all enemy champions hit
REMOVEDDON'T CHANGE THE CHANNELTaking damage while channeling no longer breaks channel
HOLD ON TIGHTTaking damage from non-minions while flying immediately ends Behind Enemy Lines ⇒ removes Behind Enemy Lines' bonus movement speed for 3 seconds
HOLD ON TIGHTTaking damage from minions while flying no longer slows Valor
NEWTHE ENEMY FOUNTAIN IS DOWNAutomatically casts Behind Enemy Lines when returning to the Summoning Platform
REMOVEDLOCKOUTNo longer goes on 3-second cooldown when in combat
BUGFIXSkystrike no longer fails to cast if cast within the last 10 seconds
BUGFIXSkystrike no longer deals double damage when cast by reactivating R
BUGFIXBehind Enemy Lines no longer ends immediately when used near a turret that Quinn had been attacking
BUGFIXCanceling Behind Enemy Lines while Presence of Mind is active no longer refunds mana that was never consumed
BUGFIXBehind Enemy Lines no longer removes existing movement orders or ignores new movement orders given during its cast and channel
Rakan
Q and R damage ratios increased.
Rakan is currently struggling when paired with most marksmen. The obvious exception is Xayah—the two lovebirds are doing pretty well together. We're looking to make Rakan more impactful on his own without further increasing his strength alongside his partner.
Q - Gleaming Quill
RATIO0.5 ability power ⇒ 0.6 ability power
W - Grand Entrance
RATIO0.5 ability power ⇒ 0.7 ability power
E - Battle Dance
RANGE600 ⇒ 700
BONUS RANGE TOWARD XAYAH400 ⇒ 300 (total range unchanged)
Xayah
Xayah and Rakan's basic attacks no longer trigger feathers from each other's Deadly Plumage.
As above, bringing Xayah and Rakan's strength together down.
W - Deadly Plumage
DAMAGEWhile Deadly Plumage is active on both Xayah and Rakan, when one of them basic attacks an enemy, both of their Deadly Plumages strike that enemy ⇒ only their own Deadly Plumage strikes that enemy
Items
NEW?Shurelya's Reverie
When you a support but you and your squad wanna go in.
With the removal of Talisman of Ascension, the support item landscape was missing the "everybody in" item. Since we were remaking it anyway, we took a look at who we wanted picking up this item. Ultimately, we wanted to make sure that it wasn't super attractive to tanks (they already have Righteous Glory), but felt good on most other supports.
COST2100 gold
BUILD PATHAether Wisp + Kindlegem + 450 gold
ABILITY POWER40
HEALTH200
COOLDOWN REDUCTION10%
MOVEMENT SPEED8%
UNIQUE ACTIVEGrants user and nearby allies + 40% movement speed for 3 seconds (60 second cooldown)
Abyssal Mask
Aura radius decreased; potency increased.
When we moved ability power off of Abyssal Mask and onto Banshee's Veil, we hoped to cement Abyssal as less of a core mage item and more of a tank pickup to boost allied mages. However, the high range on its aura has made it a compelling damage option on mages that also provides defensive value intended for tanks. As a result, we're seeing a lot of mages pick it up as a "get me through mid lane with no interaction possible" item, without paying much of a hit to their late game damage. Shrinking the aura will sharpen the intended user base to champions who want to get up close and personal.
AURA RADIUS700 (edge to edge) ⇒ 325 (center to center)
MAGIC DAMAGE AMPLIFIER10% ⇒ 15%
HI, ORNNThese changes also apply to Ornn's masterwork upgrade, Infernal Mask
BUGFIXAbyssal Mask no longer counts as a spell for the purposes of Electrocute or Phase Rush's "3 unique spell" requirement
Seraph's Embrace
Shield mana ratio decreased. Shield duration decreased.
Seraph's Embrace's shield is providing too much safety for its purchasers.
SHIELD RATIO20% current mana ⇒ 15% current mana
SHIELD DURATION3 seconds ⇒ 2 seconds
Dead Man's Plate
Slow is now magic damage instead of physical. Momentum generation tweaked.
Dead Man's Plate is underperforming at the moment, and we're taking a pass at giving it some love. While we do so, we'd like to sharpen its identity as the item for fighters, who really shine when they get the opportunity to maneuver around a fight laying down damage.
As such, we're going under the hood and tweaking the way DMP generates Momentum. If you're able to lock a target in place (hello Maokai/Nautilus) and prevent them from kiting you that much, you won't get as much damage and you're unlikely to get a lot of slows. On the other hand, if you're darting around a fight (Irelia, Renekton) you'll feel the full impact of the passive.
Hopefully, when fighters see this item, they'll think to themselves "yes.". When tanks see this item, they'll think to themselves "no."
PROC DAMAGE TYPEPhysical ⇒ Magic
REMOVEDSLOWMENTUMUsers no longer lose stacks while Slowed
UPDATEDSOMENTUMNow consumes all momentum on basic attacks even if at less than max stacks, dealing 1 damage per momentum consumed
NEEDS MO'MENTUMThe slow only triggers at max stacks (unchanged; still melee-only)
NEWLOCKING OUT MY GENERATIONBasic attacking now locks out momentum generation until your attack timer resets
Guinsoo's Rageblade
Cost decreased. Attack damage and ability power decreased. Base magic damage on-hit decreased; ratio added. Physical damage on-hit added. Stack bonuses now scale with stats from other sources.
Guinsoo's Rageblade currently has two problems: It's only good on a select few champions, and on those champions it serves as an insane first item spike. We're hitting both problems by changing its statline and on-hits to scale directly with other stats. TL;DR, Guinsoo's shouldn't be as immediately powerful of a rush item, but it fits into a few more types of builds.
TOTAL COST3600 gold ⇒ 3000 gold
BUILD PATHBlasting Wand + Recurve Bow + Pickaxe + 875 gold ⇒Amplifying Tome + Recurve Bow + Pickaxe + 990 gold
ATTACK DAMAGE35 ⇒ 25
ABILITY POWER50 ⇒ 25
MAGIC DAMAGE ON HIT15 ⇒ 5 (+0.1 ability power)
NEWPHYSICAL DAMAGE ON HIT5 + (0.1 bonus attack damage)
ABILITY POWER PER STACK4 flat ability power ⇒ 4% ability power
ATTACK SPEED PER STACK8% bonus attack speed ⇒ 8% total attack speed
ATTACK DAMAGE PER STACK3 flat attack damage >> 4% bonus attack damage
NEWRAPID RAGEAt half stacks, melee champions' next basic attack fully stacks Rageblade
Hextech GLP-800
Cost decreased.
This item is still a bit too weak.
TOTAL COST3000 gold ⇒ 2800 gold
COMBINE COST850 gold ⇒ 650 gold
Statikk Shiv
Energized proc damage decreased at higher levels. Lightning no longer deals bonus damage to minions.
The combination of proc damage and wave clear is allowing any marksman to be their team's wave clear all on their own, making Statikk Shiv too dominant a pick over the other zeal items.
PROC DAMAGE60-160 ⇒ 60-140
REMOVEDWAVE CLEARNo longer deals bonus damage to minions
Rapid Firecannon
Energized proc damage increased.
We're taking this opportunity to match the damage of Rapid Firecannon to that of Statikk Shiv, to make it a more clear choice between extra range and extra wave clear.
PROC DAMAGE50-120 ⇒ 60-140
Summoner Spells
Ignite
Damage increased.
For a while now, Heal and Teleport have been outclassing Ignite mid lane, especially in pro play. To increase diversity in Summoner spells, we're pushing a bit more power into Ignite.
DAMAGE70-410 (at levels 1-18) ⇒ 80-505 (at levels 1-18)
Heal
Cooldown increased.
In general, defensive spells should have higher cooldowns than offensive spells. That is, if two opposing player uses Heal and Ignite in the same fight, there should be a window where the Ignite player has a summoner spell edge and can try and make another play. Currently, Heal's cooldown is probably a bit too low for players to take advantage of that disparity, so we're upping it.
COOLDOWN240 seconds ⇒ 270 seconds
Runes
NEW
Conqueror
New Precision keystone.
We wanted to introduce a keystone for champions who excel in long, drawn-out fights—especially melee champions.
CONQUERERAfter 4 seconds in combat, your first attack against an enemy champion grants you 10-35 attack damage, based on level, for 3 seconds, and converts 20% of your damage to champions to true damage
MELEE ONLYDamaging enemy champions refreshes this buff
Bone Plating
Bone Plating duration decreased.
Bone Plating was intended as an anti-burst rune, but thanks to its long duration it's being used as a generic anti-damage rune. Shortening the duration should make it less generically good while preserving its anti-burst power.
DURATION5 seconds ⇒ 3 seconds
NEW
Chrysalis
New Resolve rune in the Resistance row.
Many champions—especially carry-style champions—might want defensive stats to get through the laning phase, but ultimately want carry stats for the late game. This is the rune for them.
CHRYSALISStart the game with an additional 60 health. When you get 4 takedowns, consume that health to gain an adaptive bonus of 9 attack damage or 15 ability power.
Removed Runes
Iron Skin and Mirror Shell in the Resistance row of the Resolve tree have been removed.
Iron Skin and Mirror Shell weren't adding much to the runes landscape; they were largely just flat stats that didn't feel compelling to a lot of characters. Now that we've added Chrysalis (and Bone Plating two patches ago), we can remove Iron Skin/Mirror Shell.
REMOVEDIRON SKINIron Skin has been removed
REMOVEDMIRROR SHELLMirror Shell has been removed
BACKUP WINDPages that previously took Iron Skin or Mirror Shell have auto-swapped to Second Wind
Rune Selection Upgrades
HEY LISTENNew or reworked runes will now have an indicator and the drawer they're in will auto-pop open
LOOK AT THIS STUFFLast patch we added a feature where we auto-swapped removed runes and put an indicator on the affected pages. This patch, we're adding an indicator to the specific rune so it's easier to see what has been auto-swapped.
WHICH RUNEFixed some buggy behavior in substyle selection (in particular, the ring which shows you which rune will be replaced was often wrong)
Twisted Treeline
Bandit passive removed. Movement speed added to Ancient Coin line of items. Many other changes.
These are just the same changes these items have gone through on Summoner's Rift over the last 2 patches.
All Support Items
REMOVEDBANDITNo longer grants gold when nearby enemy minions are killed by allies or when attacking enemy champions
Spellthief's Edge, Frostfang, and Eye of the Watchers
UPDATEDLOCKOUTThe penalty for killing a minion or non-epic monster now pauses gold per 10 generation in addition to Tribute stack generation
UPDATEDQUEST COMPLETIONLockout clears upon quest completion, rather than upon upgrading to Remnant of the Watchers
SPELLTHIEF'S EDGE TRIBUTE GOLD10 gold (unchanged)
FROSTFANG & EYE OF THE WATCHERS TRIBUTE GOLD15 gold ⇒ 20 gold
Ancient Coin
MOVEMENT SPEED5
Nomad's Medallion & Timeworn Talisman of Ascension

One for All

- Each Nunu in a game can give up to 120% bonus ability power to a single Nunu using W - Blood Boil, for a grand total of 600% potential bonus ability power
- Each Nami can buff an ally with E - Tidecaller's Blessing at the same time, resulting in three SUPER CHARGED Nami basic attacks!
- Sivir has claimed the title of The Fast, at a recorded top speed of ~2000 while all Sivirs are R - On the Hunt
- Slows don't stack! The slows will still be put on the target, but only the strongest slow applies.
That's it! Go forth and slam your opponents with Leap of Faith x 5, or maybe a Penta Umbral Trespass.
Honor
After popping the hood on Honor, we're seeing that the path back from dishonor is a bit too harsh. So now it's less steep. There are no other changes to Honor.
HONOR RECLIMBSThe requirements to move up from Dishonorable to Honor level 2 have been lowered
Parties Level Up
Voice Chat
Later this patch, your party won't ignore your cries for help because they'll hear you in voice chat.
