Riot Games created and released League of Legends, also known as LoL, a hugely well-liked online multiplayer battle arena game. League of Legends has grown to be one of the most played and seen esports games in the world since its 2009 introduction. In order to destroy the Nexus of the opposing side, two teams of five players each control a different champion with a different set of skills.
League of Legends has attracted millions of players worldwide with its strategic depth, diverse array of champions, and ever-evolving gameplay. And the constant publication of patch notes is another essential component that keeps League of Legends exciting and new.
Patch notes are thorough updates offered by Riot Games that describe all the modifications made to the game, such as balance changes, bug fixes, and new content.
And now it's time for the new patch update, League of Legends 13.12 patch notes, bringing new champion buffs, nerfs, and adjustments along with system nerfs and adjustments.

League of Legends 13.12 patch notes
League of Legends Patch 13.12, the upcoming update, will weaken a number of ADCs and enchanter supports. They are being nerfed alongside other items like Ardent Censer, Bloodthirster, Galeforce, and Imperial Mandate, which causes a greater loss in power overall.
In the League of Legends 13.12 patch notes, devs revealed that along with ADCs being nerfed; Kai'sa, Ashe, and Sivir are receiving boosts, while some top lanes are also receiving some perks. The nerfs' primary targets are Yuumi and Zeri and the ADC and enchanter class are being made less powerful overall, in addition to the nerfs to Yuumi and Zeri. A few frequently used items for the classes, as well as a few mechanisms that favored the bot lane carry, are being nerfed too.
Talking about the LoL 13.12 patch notes, @RiotPhroxzon said, "Buffs are focused at champs that have itemization ear flicks (eg. Kaisa evolves), champs that have been languishing (Sivir, Ryze, Nasus, etc.) Nerfs to Pro staples and soloq overperformers. Ivern looks strong, but no nerfs."
He added, "Item changes are mostly for over/underperforming items from ADC/Supp item changes. We're monitoring Tri Force. Lucian changes are to have him perform better with more supports (other than just Nami) and Rumble changes are to have him perform better in extended engagements."
ok Phroxzon took a nap or smth idk so here's all the champions

League of Legends patch 13.12 Champions buffs and nerfs
The main tools Riot Games uses to optimize the performance of champions in League of Legends are buffs and nerfs. Buffs are improvements that are made to a champion's skills, stats, or mechanics to increase their usefulness and influence on the battlefield. On the other hand, nerfs try to address overpowering or dominant picks that may have been overshadowing alternative options by lowering the power or efficacy of specific champion attributes.
A number of champion buffs and nerfs are included in the upcoming patch, as was already reported, and this time around, a few champions are at the top of the list. Let's first examine the champion buffs added in League of Legends patch 13.12.

LoL Patch 13.12 Champion adjustments:
In addition to the buffs and nerfs, there will be more changes in terms of Champion adjustments, one of which will have an impact on Lucian's passive. Below is a list of the changes made to champions in the LoL 13.12 patch.
Lucian
- Vigilance:
- When Lucian is empowered by another Ally, his next 2 basic attacks will deal bonus magic damage. ⇒ When Lucian is healed or shielded by an ally, or when a nearby enemy Champion is immobilized, his next 2 basic attacks will deal bonus magic damage.
- Base Stats
- Base health: 659 ⇒ 625
- Health growth: 99 ⇒ 105
- Maximum heat: 100 ⇒ 150 (Overheat now at 150)
- Overheat duration: 5.25 seconds ⇒ 4
- P - Junkyard Titan
- Bonus attack speed: 20% - 80% linear ⇒ 50% - 130% lvl growth
- Monster damage cap: 80 flat ⇒65 - 150
- Q - Flamespitter
- Base damage: 180 - 340 ⇒ 135 - 195
- Deals 6% - 10% max HP, capped at 65 - 300 against monsters
- Minion damage: 60% - 80% ⇒ 55% - 75%

Rumble
- P - Lightslinger
- Base magic damage: 14 ⇒ 10
- Magic AD ratio: 20% ⇒ 15%
- Magic damage is readied when an enemy champ within 1000 units is CC'd
While Rumble appears to need a little more assistance having an impact in prolonged battles, the Riot programmers want Lucian to "perform better with more support".
The team's plans for Rumble and how they plan to enhance him have been revealed on YouTube by Phreak, a former LCS caster who is now a balancing whiz. Also receiving some changes to his passive will be Lucian. The itemization tweaks have made him a very good choice, thus Riot will slightly reduce the effectiveness of his passive.
Additional dev notes:
- Kaisa AD/lv to hit Q evolve on more first items
- Ryze E speed aims to fix some cases where E->meleeQ doesn't spread
- Gragas P CD aims to hit some early sustain to broaden even/losing matchups
- More Milio damage tradeoffs in exchange for survivability+range
- Zeri nerfs to be less bound to enchanters.
- Tri Force was making her spike too hard on 1 item, given her scaling.
- If she's weak, we'll follow-up, but she's been strong for a while.
- Q is on a fine line between spell & an attack replacement and we're supporting it as an attack
- Lucian changes to be viable with more partners (and a nerf to compensate)
- Rumble changes to extend his combat pattern and make him better against more durable targets
- With a lot more red buffs active in each game, we're bringing the power down slightly
