Context & Notes

1) Riot Scruffy provided a preview of 10.21 balance changes:

 (Note: These changes are separate from Preseason balance changes already testing on the PBE!)

"10.21 Patch Preview -  

This won't change worlds in any way but we're keeping things as balanced as we can for end of the ranked season.  

Long term we're shifting Pantheon away from support and back into solo lanes."
