[quote=Jovy][center][img=http://i.imgur.com/z1vzRtr.png][/center] [rule] Awooo and welcome to the MOBAFire Patch Summary - 7.1! This is the [i]actual[/i] official first patch of the 2017 ranked season! To prepare the newly defrosted Rift for a new season of ranked play, this patch includes a number of balance changes targeted at staple champions, one single item, as well as a few buffs and bugfixes for some of the weaker champions in League. And like 20 nerfs! [[Warwick]], the resident wolf also receives his rework after years of everyone waiting during this patch, so be sure to check out the details on his kit if you haven't already.

The dank weedwick has finally been changed and we’re left with [[Warwick]], the Uncaged Wrath of Zaun! After a retcon and a redesign, we’re left with something familiar, but different! He has gained myriad of new and updated skills, and as is the treat nowadays, his ult is a skillshot! He has been transformed into an odious beast that hunts down its prey, never being able to satiate his eternal thirst. For a full rundown of his abilities, visit his reveal page [url=http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/featured/champion-warwick-uncaged-wrath]here![/url]. Also check [url=http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/forum/news/champion-update-warwick-40628]this post here[/url]! Though he can’t see us, we can see him getting changed! [[Lee Sin]], the Blind Monk has been “modernized”. He has lost the stealth detection on his [[Tempest]], and has lost damage on his [[Dragons Rage]]. That dragon is not the only one that has been affected, however! [[Shyvana]] has lost the bonus damage to monsters on her [[Burnout]], and will now have a harder time fitting in with her buddies at the [url=http://i.imgur.com/WbbqNmQ.jpg][img=http://i.imgur.com/zGAhDw5.png][/url][color=transparent].[/color]Drake Pit. The last champion has cast a shadow over the top lane. With [[Camille]], the Steel Shadow, receiving multiple nerfs. Nearly every aspect of her kit has been nerfed in one way or another. She has lost shield duration on her [[Adaptive Defenses]], her health growth has been lowered, her [[Hookshot]] gives more warning, and her ultimate, [[Hextech Ultimatum]] has a shorter knock away stun. Another top lane behemoth has also been hit by the ban hammer. Specifically, [[Poppy]], the Keeper of the Hammer! Her [[Iron Ambassador]] shield lasts a shorter amount of time, and [[Keeper's Verdict]], her ultimate, has lost snapcast damage to lower her bust. Perhaps now our teammates won’t feed on Yasuo anymore. Camille may have been an issue top lane, but the rest of the map can agree that [[Syndra]] is a bitch, killing people with one cast of her ultimate, [[Unleashed Power]]. In order to fix this issue, Riot has increased the cooldown at levels 6 and 11! She has also had her [[Force of Will]] changed, allowing her to deal bonus true damage instead of being able to carry multiple balls. She has also lost some base damages and ratios on the Force of Will. Our constantly changing buddy [[Ryze]] has had his [[Overload]] shield and movement speed nerfed at nearly every value, hopefully creating a champion that is more enjoyable to lane against.
