Balance Changes

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

TFT

Riot Mort provided a final changelist for TFT: Reckoning before it hits Live tomorrow! These changes are now on the PBE:
"Wrapping up Reckoning PBE, a thread with lots of info. Getting this out tonight so we can focus on all the cool stuff starting tomorrow! Thank you everyone for all the testing the past two weeks. Because of you we fixed a ton of bugs and made a ton of balance/polish changes. The set is going to live in a much better state because of you! We really appreciate every single PBE game that was played. 
That being said, we also know we're not done and will be improving Reckoning with each patch. There are still more bugs to fix and may be more balance issues to be discovered, so as you play live, keep that feedback coming! So here are the final changes we're pushing out for all you PBE players that will go live with Reckoning on Day 1. Lots of good stuff with a few things that need some explaining:

-Fixed a bug where you could swap an overflowed Draconic egg with a unit
-Shadow Force of Nature will no longer appear in the Carousel
-Fixed an issue where units would occasionally not pick a new target when an enemy they were targeting entered Guardian Angel’s revive
-Thieves gloves correctly kicks items off of other benched units when combined on the bench
Re: ZZ'rot/Abom, we've decided to error on overnerfing here. There isn't any text that explains this which isn't ideal, but we'll get that in for 11.10. But for now, ZZ'rot got nerfed a little extra hard, and won't work with Abom. It's worth it to remove this for now.

There's a few other things we have our eye on, but nothing cross into the realm of unacceptable so we'll see what rises to the top. PBE data is always a bit dicey, so we'll see what happens.  Other than that, enjoy Reckoning. Thanks again, and we can't wait for everyone to see what all is coming starting tomorrow leading up to the live game on your server Wednesday morning local time. Thanks and have fun!"
