Hey everyone, I'm Riot Phroxzon, a Game Design Lead working primarily on Summoner's Rift Balance, Matchmaking, Ranked and Player Behavior at the moment. I've been working at Riot since 2014 and have been involved in almost every Summoner's Rift Patch for at least the last 10 years, so I'm super excited to start doing Patch Rundowns and share some of the thoughts with the community! Thank you to Phreak for doing such a great job on the balance for the past several years and also communicating thoughts to the community. Also, thank you to YoungE for all of the graphics for the video and channel. This video talks about Champion Fantasy, some of our philosophies there and while not every change in patches are going to be targeted at champion fantasy, eg. buffing Graves AD by 2, it is a lens through which we evaluate changes as contributing to or detracting from it. 0:00 - Introduction 1:00 - Design Philosophy: Champion Fantasy 6:42 - Hwei Buffs in 26.8 14:45 - General Buffs in 26.8 18:59 - Mel Nerfs in 26.8 25:35 - General Nerfs in 26.8 30:03 - General Adjustments in 26.8 (Spoiler alert, it’s just Yuumi)
