With all the changes brought to League of Legends by the preseason, including the rework of Drakes, the jungle became an incredibly unstable place. Riot Games pushed several changes targetting champions but also jungle items to fix it — but it seems they're not satisfied yet.
With Patch 10.8, they apparently decided to tweak Jungle items once again to prevent the effectiveness of funnel mechanics.
As usual, they also introduced three new skins for Morgana, Leblanc, and Zyra: Coven. The set includes a Legendary skin for Morgana as well as a Prestige Edition for Zyra.
Patch 10.8 should hit live on Wednesday, April 15, 2020.
