V1.11.2 Patch Notes

Everything you need to know about V1.11.2!

Jan 29, 2026

Summary

Hello Champions!

Time flies - it’s already the end of January, which means it’s time for the first balance patch of the year! As always, we’ve got a healthy mix of Hero and item changes, alongside a few small features you may enjoy (and find handy during matches).

This patch includes:

• Minimap improvements
• Social Screen improvements
• New skins
• Bug fixes

Let’s dive in!

Minimap Improvements

There are a few minimap improvements that are finally ready and will be implemented in V1.11.2. These two changes are tremendously helpful, giving you plenty of new information at a quick glance.

First, we’re implementing one of the biggest requests when it comes to the minimap: a recall indicator. When a player is recalling, their character icon on the minimap will flash to let you know, so you can act accordingly.

Second, we’ve added numeric jungle camp respawn timers, allowing better planning for junglers and the entire team - you can now time your Fangtooth attack down to the second.

We’re looking forward to hearing what you think, Champions, and we hope you’ll notice an improvement in your matches.

Social Screen Improvements

We’ve also implemented a few neat changes to the social screen and friends list. While in the main menu, you’ll be able to see more information about players on your Friends List, including:

• How long their current match has been running
• Whether they’re in queue (and for which mode)
• Whether they’re in a party (and if that party is full)

All of this makes it easier to find the best party to join and take advantage of that Party XP bonus!

AFK and Punishment Changes

In this patch, we’re making some tweaks to how we handle players going AFK.

First, we’re expanding the early match-ending functionality to ARAM and Nitro when an AFK player is detected near the start of a match. This functionality is already in place for Standard and Ranked.

We’re also increasing the severity of penalties for going AFK, dodging Ranked Draft, and declining to accept a Ranked match.

We won’t be sharing the exact thresholds or trigger conditions to prevent abuse, but we want to ensure the best possible player experience - so players who choose to ruin it will receive increasingly stern bans.

Heroes

Bayle

Bayle is receiving some reductions to his general effectiveness, as his current mix of durability and damage output makes him overly potent as a diver that is equal parts too bulky to burst while also being too threatening to ignore, especially in late-game teamfight scenarios. Additionally, we are applying some reductions to his base Mana and durability in the early-game, thereby reducing the pressure he possesses in the early lane, be that in Offlane or Support roles.

General:

• Health Growth decreased from 120 to 116.

• Health Regen decreased from 1.6 to 1.4.

• Physical Armor decreased from 32 to 30.

• Mana decreased from 380 to 355.

Berserk [Passive]:

• Bonus Physical Power Scaling decreased from 75% to 65%.

• Movement Speed decreased from 9-17.5% (+0.5% per Level) to 6.5-15% (+0.5% per Level).

Cursed Edge [Primary]:

• Cooldown decreased from 14/13.5/13/12.5/12 to 15/14.5/13/12.5/12.

Dire Howl [Secondary]:

• Bonus Physical Power decreased from 10/15/20/25/30 to 8/12/16/20/24.

Kingslayer [Ultimate]:

• Damage per Slash decreased from 30/42/54 to 30/40/50.

• Bonus Physical Power Scaling per Slash decreased from 26% to 24%.

• Max Health Damage per Slash decreased from 1%/1.4%/1.8% to 1%/1.3%/1.6%

• Final Slash Max Health Damage decreased from 3%/4.2%/5.4% to 3%/4%/5%.

Countess

Countess is receiving some shifts to her general Mana economy and Offlane/Jungle potency specifically as she is currently thriving against many Melee opponents, with care to not impact her in the Midlane too much. For Offlane, she will find herself running lower on Mana when maxing and spamming multiple Blade Siphons in succession, as this is the optimal loop for many of the Offlane matchups she thrives in.

General:

• Mana decreased from 350 to 330.

• Mana Growth decreased from 55 to 52.

Shadow Slip [Primary]:

• Mana Cost decreased from 80 to 70.

Blade Siphon [Alternate]:

• Bonus Monster Damage decreased from 95 to 85.

• Mana Cost increased from 60 to 60/65/70/75/80.

• Cooldown increased from 8/7.25/6.5/5.75/5 to 8/7.5/7/6.5/6.

Crunch

In exchange for a small amount of Health, Crunch is receiving some general boons to his Mana, Passive damage, and Ultimate uptime. The combination of these changes is to ensure that Crunch remains punishable in the early-game, but has better scaling capabilities once he passes the level 6 mark.

General:

• Health decreased from 745 to 730.

• Mana increased from 320 to 340.

Cross Crunch [Passive]:

• Total Physical Power Scaling increased from 25% to 30%.

Re-Crunch [Ultimate]:

• Cooldown decreased from 55/40/25 to 50/35/20.

Eden

Eden continues to find too much success. This is due to a combination of factors: For starters, many of the Assassins and Divers that helped keep her in check were also hit last patch, which helped offset some of the strength she lost.

General:

• Health decreased from 700 to 695.

• Physical Armor decreased from 25 to 24.

• Health Growth decreased from 123 to 118.

• Movement Speed decreased from 680 to 675.

Plasma Claws [Basic Attack - Melee]:

• Total Physical Power Scaling decreased from 32% to 30%.

Sniper Shot [Primary - Ranged]:

• Bonus Physical Power Scaling 80%/85%/90%/95%/100% to 70%/75%/80%/85%/90%.

Axiom Strike [Primary - Melee]:

• Spin Critical Strike Scaling decreased from 100% to 85%.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where Revenant could gain additional Physical Power from his Passive under certain conditions.
• Fixed an issue where Replays could crash if a User skipped time while transformation effects such as Earth Spirit or Rebirth were occurring.
• Fixed an issue where Sevarog’s Sunforged Skin was using the incorrect VFX for its Basic Attack.
• Fixed an issue where Sevarog’s Sunforged Skin VFX would be visible through Fog Walls.
• Fixed an issue where Greystone’s Infernix Skin could have its Waist Cloth clip into each other.

Thank you very much for reading! This is only the first of many balance updates coming throughout the year, and we hope the changes in this patch are to your liking. As always, we’re looking forward to hearing what you think.
