Hey all!
Patch preview for 12.10, the champ durability update.

More context in followup tweets and the patch notes themselves. The TLDR is this is a pretty disruptive patch and we'll be watching closely and ready to react.

I'd love to know what y'all think about this patch!

12.10 is a pretty massive patch, so we're holding off on all balance changes for it. We'll have a much better sense of who needs to be nerfed or buffed after the patch is out. We're expecting to do a balance micropatch the Thursday (US Time) of the patch.

Wide sweeping changes like this just aren't predictable enough for us to know which specific champ will be OP and by how much before release. It's gonna be a fun time figuring out new builds and counters and all that though.

Why are we nerfing all your healing? Well, the worth of every point of healing/shielding is just strictly up with all the resists you're getting. This is doubly true with Grevious Wounds getting nerfed.

If we didn't adjust healing and shielding, sustain champs would be absolutely unkillable and buffed waaay more than their counterparts. We're not trying to swap league into a Mega-Mundo-Meta.
