League of Legends patch 14.20 early notes: Yone & Yasuo buffs, mage item nerfs & more

Yone league of legends patch 14.20

League of Legends patch 14.20 is a follow-up to one of the biggest LoL updates of all time in terms of changes, with over 100 items getting changed around in some way, shape, or form. As Worlds 2024 rages on, LoL continues to change.

This patch isn’t nearly as substantial as the last one, merely slotting in some buffs and nerfs to adjust certain champions and items to get things more in line after 14.19. Make no mistake, though, this patch is by no means small.

A ton of champions are seeing some small buffs and nerfs, along with some big nerfs to a couple items and Grasp of the Undying, knocking the rune down a peg. Bear in mind these are preview patch notes and are subject to change before release.

Here are the early patch notes for League of Legends patch 14.20:
