Patch Insights
- NewRecently UpdatedThe 17.5 B-Patch nerfed Samira and 7 Space Groove again so expect the line to fall from where it was previously.
- NewRecently UpdatedThe largest uptick for the patch are Meeple printing comps like Veigar and Gnar. The buff to 7 Meeple likely made Stage 4 for these comps much more stable, along with the buff to Veigar himself. Stats look better on these comps for now despite the nerf to 5 Meeple and the Rammus adjustment.
- NewRecently UpdatedLeona printing strategies have become less prevalent in Patch 17.5 after the corresponding Arbiter effects.
- NewRecently UpdatedJinx reroll with Primordians or NOVA units (rather than exclusively with Jax) started seeing an uptick toward the end of last patch and that trend is continuing into this patch, especially with the Kindred buff.

It’s a bit early, but I’ve decided to lower Samira again to B-tier thanks to the B-patch. It might still be A-tier once the play rate comes down, but right now it’s too contested to justify A-tier. We’ll know where it lands after people adjust to the B-patch balance. Serpent looks good again on Xayah after the fixes in the B-patch. Completely clueless on why they nerfed Shepherd (it was just okay), but uh … Yeah, they did. Anyway, that’s quick thoughts on B-patch.
