One of the League of Legends game designers has revealed the balance targets for the upcoming update 12.7 which will bring changes to multiple popular champions like Yasuo and Yone.

Preseason has brought multiple changes to the game of League of Legends  which usually break the game for a couple of weeks and players have to wait for the right patch to drop. 

One of the League of Legends game designers has revealed the balance targets for the upcoming patch 12.7.

The following champions will receive a buff:

  • Gwen
  • Pantheon
  • Yasuo
  • Wukong
  • Yone
  • Neeko
  • Wukong
  • Gangplank
  • Kalista
  • Lillia
  • Karthus

Yone and Yasuo have been absent from the meta over the last couple of patches and it does not come as a surprise that Riot is bringing back this famous duo.

Gwen is currently holding an atrocious 42 per cent win rate which is one of the lowest in the game. She is occasionally picked in the jungle position paired with an enchanter mid like Lulu or Ivern. Fans are quite angry about the Gangplank buffs considering that he has the ability to carry late-game teamfights while still having a fairly safe early game

The list of champions that are getting nerfed is as follows:

  • Zeri
  • Ryze
  • Lee Sin
  • Jayce

Zeri has managed to remain viable for a number of patches since her addition to the champion roster and it seems like she could disappear from the meta. Lee Sin's unique kit allows him to return to the meta every time there are no exceptional junglers.
