Patch 25.S1.3 PBE Preview

Read up on all the new PBE changes to get up to date on the upcoming Patch 25.S1.3.  Highlights include new Dumpling Darling skins, an increase to the Attack Speed Cap, and a nerf to False Life!

These changes appeared on PBE on the 22nd of January, but have been slowly shifting over the past week, and may continue to do so. As such, keep in mind that not all of these changes may make it to the live patch. If you’d like to check any of the following changes out before Wednesday, hop on PBE and queue up!

New Cosmetics - Dumpling Darling


The three Dumpling Darling skins that were added to the PBE server on the 7th of January will be coming to the live servers on Wednesday. Seraphine, Syndra, and Amumu are each getting an Epic tier (1350 RP) skin in this theme. All three also come with seven Chromas you can acquire for 290 RP a pop, or all together in a bundle, which comes with an eighth, Ruby Chroma as well.



Game Changes

Attack Speed Cap Increase

Attack Speed, the statistic that denotes a champion’s basic attack rate, is being changed. Up until now, your Attack Speed could not exceed 2.5  (1 attack every 0.4 seconds). As of next week, this cap will be increased to 3.003. Champions that rely on Attack Speed, chiefly various Marksmen, will be feeling the effects of this change to be sure.


Champion Kill Bounty Changes

Two changes are being made to the way champions kill bounties work. First, the disadvantage threshold required for kill bounties to devaluate is now 60% less.


Second, Shut Down gold rewards are now suppressed if the team at a disadvantage activates an objective bounty.

Streamer Mode Added

A new option has been added to the settings under Interface > Health and Resource Bars. If you activate Streamer Mode, all player names will be replaced with the names of their champions for the in-game client only. This will affect the loading screen, announcements, chat, etc. 

Objective Changes (Turrets & Neutral Buffs)

The Fortification passive that each turret has is getting changed. Normally, Fortification gives turrets 50% damage reduction from all sources for the first five minutes of the game, causing turrets to be extra durable. Now, this benefit will increase to 80% damage reduction instead.


Several Neutral buffs have been adjusted.
