League of Legends Patch 25.19 is here! The latest update is already live now, coming on the heels of Patch 25.18. While most of these updates are fairly small, Riot Games is shaking up the meta with the help of some champion buffs, nerfs, and crucial system updates in time for the World Championship.
One of the most important parts of this patch is how Riot will be tuning champions this time. The update has a series of buffs and nerfs to multiple roles with some of the most-popular champions getting some of the most-significant changes.
Champions like Brand, Diana, Jax, and many marksmen will get notable buffs, while some strong meta staples such as Poppy and Pantheon will be put on a diet. Riot will also be experimenting with some changes to Lee Sin, one of the defining champions of pro play in recent years and a staple for many Worlds favorites.
