LoL Patch Notes 14.6 was focused mainly on nerfing Meta champions while also buffing up some of the underrated champions in League of Legends. These cause some anger to some and joy to others in the community. One of the champions facing heavy nerfs was Senna.
League of Legends Patch Notes 14.7 introduces new skins in LoL. Although you’ll need to prepare some League of Legends RP to grab these juicy skins for your inventory, it’s definitely worth it.
This patch introduces the long-awaited Skarner’s rework and adjusts the “Damage” focused supports like Nami and Sona to a bit more supportive role. Alongside that, some of the tanks and bruisers are getting buffed up to compete in the Meta, which can be a game-changer for some.
LoL Patch 14.7 release date
According to Riot’s social media, League of Legends Patch 14.7 lived on 3 April 2024.
Patch 14.7 Update Changes
Skarner Rework
The primary reason for this League of Legends update is to release Skarner’s long-awaited VGU (Visual Gameplay Update). The rework focuses on revamping Skarner’s abilities, in-game model, and lore.
Skarner’s Abilities
Threads of Viration (Passive): Skarner’s abilities apply Quaking to enemies. Enemies with three stacks of quaking take %Max Hp damage over time.
Shattered Earth/Upheaval (Q): Skarner overpowers his next three attacks with bonus damage, increasing range, and attack speed. His third attack slams down on the ground, slowing enemies and dealing a medium amount of damage. He can do a recast to throw a rock as a projectile.
Seismic Bastion (W): Skarner gains a shield and slams to the ground, damaging and slowing enemies caught within its range.
Ixtal’s Impact (E): Skarner charges forward, ignoring terrain, and grabs the first enemy or monster he clashes with. He can carry them a short distance, damaging and stunning them if they collide with the terrain.
Impale (R): Skarner implies up to three enemy champions, damaging and suppressing them. He then gains bonus movement speed for a short time and carries it with them until the duration ends.
Skarner’s reworked kit puts him in a gank-focused jungle. His E allows him to surprise and isolate lone and vulnerable targets, especially squishy targets like ADCs, Supports, or mages. Once caught, they become easy prey for skaters to feast upon. Skarner mains should prioritize doing early game ganks.
Support Enchanters Adjustments
LoL Patch Notes 14.6 buffed some crit items in response to players’ concerns regarding the weak state ADCs right now. League of Legends Patch Notes 14.7 focuses on enchanting support classes that primarily include Nami and Sona.
The Struggling Sona received some juicy buffs, increasing the Passive, Q, and W heal ratio. However, to balance out the buffs, her Q aura’s AP ratio is reduced slightly.
Nami also sees a similar approach by reducing base damage on E and W, but it is quite a boost to her heal AP ratio.
