LoL Patch 14.7 – Anticipated Item Adjustments

Following significant nerfs in Patch 14.6 to powerhouse picks like Karma and Smolder, as well as buffs to less popular champions including Galio, the meta is showing signs of shifting. Patch 14.7 heralds the rework for Skarner, with various modifications already being tested on the PBE, as detailed by game designer Spideraxe. Enchanter champions like Sona, Nami, and Karma are set to receive some tweaks in an effort to achieve balance.

While the specific changes for Patch 14.7 are currently limited, updates mainly focus on enchanter champions. Sona and Nami are set for adjustments, with Riot also aiming to bring Karma to a more stable state.

Below are the planned numerical adjustments, though it’s important to note that these buffs and nerfs may undergo further fine-tuning in the coming days.

Release Date for Patch 14.7

According to the official patch timeline, Patch 14.7 is scheduled for release on Wednesday, Apr. 3rd, marking the 7th patch out of the 24 planned updates for the year.
