Key Highlights of Patch 9.12 Update in League of Legends.
1. Mordekaiser Revamped
Riot has finally introduced a completely reworked Mordekaiser. This time, his abilities are almost entirely different, including the ability to pull enemies towards him or drag opponents into a 1vs1 showdown. Upon winning, Mordekaiser will retain a portion of the defeated enemy's stats until they respawn.
2. Ryze Reworked
Ryze stands as one of League of Legends' most contentious champions when it comes to balance. Therefore, it's no surprise that he's been reworked in this update. Riot has stripped away the shield from his Q, and more importantly, the additional damage now depends on his R. Instead, W will inflict a slow effect and targets affected by Flux. It remains to be seen if this will be enough to balance Ryze in professional play and solo queue, so we'll have to wait and see how the latest updates unfold.
3. Yuumi's Power Reduction
According to Riot, players of Yuumi are beginning to understand more about this champion and feel she's a bit too powerful in the hands of skilled players. Hence, in the League of Legends 9.12 update, Yuumi receives some minor adjustments to redistribute her power. The energy return from her passive is reduced in the early stages and adjustments to the strength from W. Now, it'll be easier to withstand her early dominance and prevent Yuumi from rolling over the game effortlessly.
4. Visual and Effect Updates for Ziggs, Lulu, Tryndamere, and Amumu
It's been a while since the last makeover for these champions, or even since their release, their skill effects may be fine, but their visuals aren't up to par, and that's exactly what Riot is bringing in this patch. In update 9.13, Riot will enhance the visual effects for Ziggs, Lulu, Tryndamere, Amumu, bringing them back into the spotlight. The new effects are captivating and exciting, but they don't stray too far from the original.
5. Dark Star Skins Return
Dark Star skins are some of the most mystical and compelling effects in League of Legends, The latest addition in this update sees Jhin, Karma, and Shaco all receiving Dark Star skins. While both Karma and Jhin have other beautiful skins, this marks Shaco's first new skin since May 2015.
