League of Legends Patch 13.1B Now Live Globally
Riot Games has officially released League of Legends Patch 13.1B (formerly known as Patch 13.2) worldwide. The launch was delayed by one day due to a cyber attack on Riot. This patch brings the usual balance updates and system changes to the game. However, some of the major updates originally planned for Patch 13.2 have been postponed to a later date. This led to the decision to rename the patch as a “micropatch”.
In a recent tweet, League of Legends confirmed that Patch 13.1B has been successfully launched and is now available for players.
Changes Planned for Patch 13.2
Patch 13.2 was originally intended to include updates for Ahri and buffs for Annie. However, these changes have been postponed to Patch 13.3, which is scheduled to release on Feb. 8 according to the official patch schedule.
Updates in Patch 13.1B
The live servers have received several changes with the latest update. Champions like Yuumi, Gangplank, and the Lucian/Nami combo (popular in professional play) have been nerfed. Additionally, Lillia, Orianna, Zoe, and certain AD carry champions have received buffs. The patch also introduces six new skins to celebrate the Lunar New Year, including the Prestige Porcelain Lissandra skin available in the in-client crafting menu.
If you were eagerly awaiting the changes mentioned above, you will have to wait for Patch 13.3 on Feb. 8 for Annie’s buffs and Ahri’s reworks.
