So, I’ve been digging into the upcoming changes for League of Legends in 2025, and let me tell you, it’s a wild ride. I started by checking out what Riot Games had to say about the item changes. They’re shaking things up, that’s for sure.
First off, I noticed they’re removing some items. Apparently, these items weren’t getting much love from players, or they were just too much of a headache to balance. But don’t worry, they’re not leaving us hanging. They mentioned that new items will be introduced to fill in the gaps.
Then, I went through the whole recommended build stuff. Basically, it’s locked in based on what was popular last patch. No biggie, though, ’cause I found out I can still make my own item sets in the client. I spent some time tinkering with that, setting up builds that I think will work for my playstyle.
Next, I tried to learn about the stat efficiency thing. It sounds like they’re nerfing almost every Legendary item by 5-15%. I guess it’s to slow down the game a bit and make champions rely more on their own skills. I played a few games with these changes in mind, trying to adjust my strategies accordingly.
- Experimented with different item combinations.
- Noticed games felt a bit slower, but in a good way.
- Realized I needed to focus more on my champion’s abilities rather than just items.
I also saw that some specific items are getting tweaked. For instance, Abyssal Mask is losing a bit of HP. And there’s a mention of Heartsteel and some other items getting changes. I made a mental note to keep an eye on these and see how they play out in-game.
Oh, and I stumbled upon some info about Patch 14.19. It’s supposed to be a big one, but it seems like there are no buffs this time around. Mostly just changes and adjustments. I skimmed through the patch notes, trying to get a feel for what the meta might look like after it drops.
Conclusion
All in all, it was a pretty productive deep dive into the item changes. I feel like I’ve got a decent handle on what’s coming, and I’m kind of excited to see how it all plays out. I’ve made some adjustments to my item sets, adapted my playstyle a bit, and I’m ready to jump into Season 2025 and see what’s what.
