A detailed description of League of Legends patch 13.8. What exactly will the update change?

What is known about the next patch coming soon to LoL?

Updates are regularly released for League of Legends, in which the developers usually look at the balance of gameplay, addressing those characters and items that significantly stand out from the rest. Occasionally, larger changes can also be seen, which are aimed at, for example, refreshing selected characters.

The MSI championship is coming to League of Legends, which will be played on the released update 13.8. The developers have already reported that they are relatively satisfied with the current meta, so only smaller fixes have appeared in the patch in question. However, this does not mean that not much has changed.
