Balance Changes

* NOTE*: The PBE is a testing grounds for new, tentative, & experimental changes. Be aware that what you see below may be relative to other changes earlier this cycle! These are not official notes.

Champions

Quinn
[Context]

• Base Armor lowered from 32 to 28
• Harrier (Passive) damage lowered from [15 - 100 based on level] to [10 - 95 based on level]

Context & Notes

1) Meddler noted a Quinn nerf that is on the PBE today:

"There should be some Quinn nerfs hitting PBE today. We're hitting base Armor (28 instead of 32) and starting passive damage (10 instead of 15) to reduce how well she trades/harasses in lane."

Check out Meddler's quick gameplay thoughts for July 25th for more on prototypes, gold funneling changes, and crit item changes.

2) Regarding the reverted Tahm Kench W changes, Maple Nectar shared a full tentative changelist - look for more with the upcoming 8.16 PBE cycle.

"This was just a part of the list in testing. The full list is below - but note that since we're targeting 8.16 this could still change a lot! 

Tongue Lash (Q)

• Slow Duration :: 2 >>> 1.5

• Cooldown :: 6 >>> 5

Devour / Regurgitate (W)
