League of Legends patch 13.6 notes: Yuumi and Aurelion nerfs

Time for the anti-Yuumi to rejoice as champion receives new nerfs

The League of Legends patch 13.6 is the next update in Season 13 coming to the game on March 22. The new patch features significant changes including the introduction of Milio, incredible skins, buffs, and nerfs to various champions. Among these champions receiving nerfs is Yuumi, the magical cat that every player hates playing against.

LoL Patch 13.6 will also see meta change as Riot hopes to reduce the current power of the bot lane with nets to item and rune changes.

What's new in LoL patch 13.6?

The League of Legends Patch 13.6 is bringing a new support champion, Milio to the league. The young-fiery champion has already raised eyebrows amongst support players with his abilities. There are also system nerfs for Nashor's Tooth, Dragon, Bloodthirster, Navori Quickblades, and Lethal Tempo.

Moreover, as with all other League of Legends Patch, lead designer Matt "Phroxzon" Leung-Harrison revealed the full list of changes coming with Patch 13.6.

Here are all the champion changes you can expect in the upcoming patch:

Yuumi and Aurelion Sol nerfs

Yuumi

(Q): Prowling Projectile
- Cooldown adjusted: 7.5 – 6.25 > 6.5
- Mana cost increased: 50 – 75 > 50 – 100
- Range/ speed reduced

(R): Final Chapter
- Bonus resistances removed: 20 – 60 resists > 0

The first and perhaps the most joyful news is the nerfs to Yuumi in the new Patch. Yuumi received a rework in Patch 13.5 making her even more overpowered than before. Her win rate since the rework has gone from 39 percent to 51.40 percent.

Moreover, there have been reports of a Tear bug allowing her to be a bigger nuisance on Summoner's Rift.

Riot's Phroxzon admitted that Yuumi's rework released was too strong and they would nerf her. The nerfs will occur to her armor, resists, and Q (Prowiling Projectile). Also, Aurelion Sol, another reworked champion will also be nerfed.

The Aurelion Sol rework made it almost impossible for teams to lose fights with the champion's infinite scaling and easier spells. Since the rework, Aurelion Sol's pick rate has increased by 20 percent with a 53.18 win rate on average. The long-forgotten champion has also made its way back to pro play with Vitality's Luka "Perkz" Perkovic showing how deadly it can be in their game against MAD Lions. Perkz ended the game with a 5/0/7 KDA and was the center of all Vitality's team fights.

Aurelion sol nerfs include:

(E) Cooldown flattened: 12-10 > 12
(R) Bonus Resists Removed
(Q Mana-50-75> 50-100
W) Damage- 100-300> 85-305
(R): Falling Star/ The Skies Descend
- Stardust required for The Skies Descend increased: 75 > 100
- Falling Star Stun duration reduced: 1.25 >1
- Falling Star Cast range reduced: 1250 > 1100
- The Skies Descend knock-up duration reduced: 1.25 > 1
- The Skies Descend cast range reduced: 1250 > 1100
