League of Legends update 25.13 patch notes

League of Legends patch 25.13 is going to be relatively light due to it being the MSI 2025 patch, with changes mainly targeting pro play relevant champions. But that doesn’t mean that it won’t impact you at all.

LoL patches tend to slow down a bit ahead of big internationals to really dial balance in and give pros the opportunity to get their read on the meta and refine it, and 25.13 is that patch.

With Yunara coming right around the corner on 25.14, we’ll be right back into big changes next time around. For now, though it’s just some some light adjustments to try and hit popular champs at a high level of play and boost lesser played champs to give them a shot of showing up at these events.

Base Stats

League of Legends patch 25.11 is focused almost solely on champion balance, with Riot delivering buffs to several underperforming champions. It’s mostly buffs this time around, with a few nerfs and a big rework to Garen’s numbers to make him less of a burst champion and more of a tank.

Compared to the last few patches, 25.11 is fairly light in terms of overall changes. No big item reworks, only one huge set of changes in that of Garen’s, and mostly just a focus on honing in champions’ numbers and slightly adjusting each character in the patch.

However, there are a few standouts for this patch, particularly in cases where the priorities of certain champions are changing. Aatrox is getting more damage in exchange for less survivability while Samira’s getting the polar opposite, for instance.

With Uzi’s Hall of Legends event coming next patch, it’s safe to say the devs are likely saving big changes for 25.12’s big update. But these changes may still affect you if you’re main’s on the changelist.
