Read up on all the new PBE changes to get up to date on the upcoming Patch 26.11. Highlights include three new Legendary skins, and plentiful champion, rune, and item changes.
These changes appeared on PBE on the 13th of May, 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
Patch 26.11 is debuting a whopping seven new skins, of which three are Legendary. The star of the show is probably Spaghetti alla Vel'Koz, which is also Vel'Koz's first Legendary skin despite being a champion for twelve years! Spaghetti alla Vel'Koz comes with a uniquely-named set of Chromas: Alfredo, Dragon Fruit Noodle, Pesto, Ruby, Squid Ink Pasta, and Strawberry Pasta. Each Chroma is 290 RP, with the Ruby Chroma, as usual, being available only in bundle form.
Three more Day Job skins will join Vel'Koz at the table: Paste Maker Illaoi, Breadsticks Irelia, and Pizza Chef Sion. Each of these is Epic-tiered and costs 1350 RP.

Straight from TFT's Space Gods, Eternal Aspect Diana and Eternal Aspect Leona have also been beamed into Patch 26.11 on PBE. Like Vel'Koz, both skins are Legendary, with the standard 1820 RP price tag, and come with uniquely impressive effects and nearly 10 minutes of brand new voice interactions.
If you want to take it a step further, you can also try your luck acquiring Eclipse Eternal Aspect Diana, which will be available in the Sanctum. This is a recoloured, Mythic Variant, of Eternal Aspect Diana, and as such will be doubly easier to acquire than Transcendent skins. The skin is guaranteed to drop after opening 40 Ancient Sparks, but has an overall drop rate of 0.5% before then.

Game Changes
Neutral Buff Changes
Both Hunger of the Void and Touch of the Void have been buffed. Touch of the Void is the stacking team-wide buff granted by slaying Voidgrubs. You can obtain up to 3 stacks, and the stacks translate to extra damage whenever you attack a structure. This damage has been buffed.
▲ Damage per tick increased to (melee 4 / 12 / 16 / ranged 2 / 6 / 8) (based on Touch of the Void stacks) from (melee 3 / 19 / 12 / ranged 1.5 / 4.5 / 6).
When you've gotten your third stack of the buff, you will obtain the Hunger of the Void buff, which summons an allied Voidmite that assists during combat with enemy structures. This Voidmite is now tankier.
▲ Summoned Voidmite health increased to 100% of melee minion from 60%.
