League of Legends will undergo tremendous changes to redefine the game and its dynamics.
Finally, we can share with you the changes that Riot has discussed with its partners. All this is in the testing phase and may change until officially introduced, and it is definitely worth remembering.
Those are Riot’s core tenets for these changes:
- Players are expected to feel like they are dealing more damage and taking less damage at the same time
- “Burst” heroes will have to spend more “resources” or be very ahead to actually eliminate enemies quickly
- There is to be a greater chance of successful counterattacks
- Team fights will take longer
It sounds interesting and after a few days we can reveal what Riot has prepared.
