Hello and welcome to the MOBAFire Patch Summary - 9.20!

The most significant changes introduced in this week's patch fall to Garen, Shaco and Viktor, as Riot aims to freshen up their kits and alleviate some common issues which prevent them from hitting their champion identity and feeling exciting to play for players new and old.

To this end (and among other changes made), Garen no longer has the Villain mechanic on his ultimate Demacian Justice, Shaco's Two-Shiv Poison now deals magic damage and Viktor's Chaos Storm will now continue chasing champions after he dies and over terrain.

Outside of these adjustments, the number of changes made to champions is relatively small this time around, though Ivern's conversion to a ranged champion does deserve a mention. The patch also includes a buff to Locket of the Iron Solari's shield and three new High Noon skins, which will be released on October 10.

As always, be sure to check out the full patch notes for details on any changes that interest you (or, if you're more interested in Teamfight Tactics, click here for the 9.20 patch notes for TFT).

    • Fixed a bug where casting R - Featherstorm with the cursor exactly below Xayah would cause the ability's rotation lock to be removed
    • Nunu's E - Snowball Barrage is no longer able to slow enemies more than once within the same cast of snowballs
    • When casting Wukong's R - Cyclone as Vi's Q - Vault Breaker hits and kills Wukong, Wukong's R - Cyclone no longer loses its functionality
    • Diana's R - Lunar Rush's cooldown now successfully refresh even if the ability hits an enemy at the edge of an explosion from her Q - Crescent Strike
    • Diana's Q - Crescent Strike explosion VFX no longer can be seen in Fog of War
    • Winter Wonder Neeko will no longer lose a significant amount of base stats and the ability to basic attack when Lulu uses W - Whimsy on her as Neeko is using R - Pop Blossom while disguised
    • When Lulu polymorphs Gnar with W - Whimsy just before he transforms back from Mega to base form, Gnar will no longer acquire extra buffs and have Mega Gnar's attack and crit animations and particles
    • Cho'Gath's R - Feast execute indicator now properly appears on clones' health bars
    • Lux's Passive - Illumination is now properly tagged as a single target ability

Hope next patch will bring a Fiora skin to be honest, would be awesome. xD
