LoL: Already a hotfix for Swain

Riot Games' planned gameplay overhauls haven't gone off well. Hours after League of Legends received Swain's big update with patch 12.8, the developers had to introduce an emergency patch to boost some of his base stats to give him a better chance to shine in the game. Summoner's Rift. According to the data, the character barely managed to win 46% of the matches he was selected in .

A small stat buff

While a drop in champion win rate should be expected when introducing such a big update, the outcome was worse than Riot Games had anticipated. As such, even player learning after the skill readjustment process couldn't make up for it. So, they've gone for some very noticeable power boosts that keep Swain's new spells and the damage they deal intact.

Swain

Basic statistics

Base armor increased: 23 → 26

Base movement speed increased: 325 → 330

Some players may find the changes insufficient. However, increasing movement speed is one of Riot Games' secret weapons. All League of Legends characters are very sensitive to movement speed increases, and Swain is even more so. The champion must stay in range of enemies while keeping his R - Demonic Incarnation activated in order to drain life and inflict damage on opponents. So now it should be easier. Prior to these changes, he was one of the slowest characters in League of Legends.

After the introduction of this hotfix, the developers will continue to monitor the champion's situation. No further adjustments are expected in the coming days , but there's no doubt that the next League of Legends update will be the one to fix Swain's situation for good, once his new build hits the servers. live for a little longer.
