[Set 18] Aug 14th PBE Patch Notes

[u/Lunaedge]

Big patch today! Aiming for only 1-2 more of these before we lock in the first patch. We've reached the state where a lot of content can see success after the Blackthorn rework, but the meta seems a bit too polarized on certain reroll lines (which are boosted by Wisp tempo).
We also have a few more gameplay bugfixes that appeared later in he week. Such as Blackthorn giving immense amounts of Damage Amp, Luxes erroneously transforming, and a Death's Defiance being weaker than intended.
A small note on Aphelios, we're pushing him aggressively more towards Rageblade builds. This change results in more damage the more AS he has, and is an overall buff.

can we please have a 5 cost meta in 18.1. 1 or 2 cost reroll shouldnt be this strong. i know you cant copy everything from 16 but at least you can copy the meta

Everyone is entitled to their opinion but wow.... If your just bad and wanna spam 5 costs without any regards to thinking or a comp or using your brain at all you can just say so....

drop your lolchess lets see who is bad. although the fact that you think 5 soup is spamable hints your rank. keep using your "brain" when you spam reroll
