League of Legends 14.21 Patch Notes
The League of Legends 14.21 Patch Notes bring exciting changes to the game, focusing on champion balance and gameplay adjustments. This patch features a significant rework for Swain, allowing him to use his ultimate ability multiple times, along with various updates for other champions like Irelia and Camille, who are receiving nerfs to balance their power.
Additionally, there are buffs for champions like Corki and Sivir to enhance their abilities. Get the League of Legends 14.21 Patch Notes below.
Lol Patch 14.21
Here is the League of Legends Patch 14.21:
Swain
- Swain has been in a state for a while where his most popular role is support; has been most popular in support, while being his weakest role
- His farming roles have pretty consistently been more powerful, but unsatisfying and as a result unpopular
- The changes aim to make his farming roles (especially in solo lanes) more satisfying, powerful and reliable.
Galio
- Galio's builds are a bit too non-AP skewed currently pushing him into more of a pure tank than we'd like
- We'd like to make ROA a bit more of an attractive item compared to other options and taking his mana costs down a bit
Volibear
- Volibear's ROA/Riftmaker + Navori builds have been pretty strong
- We think it's a cool build, don't need to adjust it fundamentally, but it's just a little strong overall, so we're tapping it down a bit
AP Champs
- This patch, we're nerfing Sorcs a little bit as they're a tad strong relative to other boot options for AP champs
- We're nerfing a bunch of champs, especially ones that aren't as reliant on sorcs (though some of them we're nerfing them a little bit and doing the rest of the nerf from sorcs)
- Gwen's builds have skewed too heavily flat AP recently which has turned her more into a burst champion which is pretty expectation breaking for counterplay and understanding of what she's capable of
- Hwei has been a tad strong for a while in both mid and bot. We're increasing some of the windows for engaging and capitalizing on a mispositioned Hwei by bumping his E cooldown and a small nerf to his damage output
Non-Item Scalers
- Karthus/Kassadin/Brand/ASol/Taric/Nasus/Senna/Camille, etc. are champs who benefitted a bunch from items becoming weaker as their inherent kit scalings have become relatively stronger and they've risen above the pack
- We're targeting some nerfs at these champions to bring them down some amount as a result
- In a few instances, we wanted to make some of the champions a bit easier to punish, because there's less damage in the game in general which is meaning they get to scale a bit for free (ASol, Camille, Taric) in particular
Buffs
- Azir, Corki have been champs that have been historically a bit pro skewed
- We're adding some power back to these champions in attemped less pro skewed ways; to tide them over for a bit, but still looking to do some larger changes to Corki
- Irelia: This set of changes is attempting to make Irelia a bit more spell focused (Q) and less auto attack focused while being more early game skewed
- Other champs in this list are just generally a bit underpowered and receiving simple buffs; not too much to write home here
LoL patch 14.21 champion buffs
Irelia now relies more on her Q ability and less on auto attacks, and she is stronger early in the game.

League of Legends
League of Legends (LoL), often just called League, is a popular multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game created by Riot Games and released in October 2009. The game was inspired by a custom map called Defense of the Ancients from Warcraft III.
In League, two teams of five players compete against each other, each controlling a unique character known as a "champion." Players work together to destroy the opposing team's base while gaining experience points and gold to improve their champions.
League of Legends is free to play, and players can buy special character customization options. The game is available on Microsoft Windows and macOS, making it accessible to a wide audience.
League of Legends Gameplay
In League of Legends, gameplay revolves around strategic teamwork and the skillful use of champions. Each match takes place on a map called Summoner's Rift, where two teams of five players try to outsmart and outplay each other.
Players choose their champions at the start, each with unique abilities and roles, such as fighters, mages, or supports. During the game, players earn gold by defeating enemy champions, minions, and structures, which they can spend to buy items that make their champions stronger.
Communication and cooperation are key, as teams must work together to control important areas of the map, secure objectives like dragons and towers, and ultimately destroy the enemy's Nexus to win the game.
