Patch 10.23 Insanity

As we head into the preseason for Patch 10.23, there are a TON of item changes, buffs and nerfs, some of which are GAMEBREAKING. It’s going to take a while to sort through all the updates, but we’re already seeing some outliers that are performing better than most.

Check out some of the big offenders below!

Malphite – 60% Win Rate

Sunfire Aegis

UNIQUE – IMMOLATE: Taking or dealing damage activates this passive for 3 seconds. Deal 20 − 40 (based on level) (+ 1% bonus health) magic damage per second to nearby enemies, increased by 50% against minions and 200% against monsters. Damaging enemy champions or epic monsters with this effect adds a stack for 5 seconds, increasing subsequent Immolate damage by 12%, stacking up to 6 times for a 72% increase.

UNIQUE – FLAMETOUCH: At maximum stacks, your basic attacks explode around you, burning nearby enemies for your current Immolate damage for 3 seconds.

MYTHIC PASSIVE: Empowers other Legendary items with 5 ability haste.

This item is boosting all the tanks right now and it’s clear why. The new bonus immolate damage stacking up to 72% grants tanks massive low effort damage. 

Other tanks like Maokai and Zac are also finding extreme success with the same item, and marksmen simply aren’t strong enough to break through this and the newly improved tank items in the game like Thornmail and Gargoyle Stoneplate.

Katarina – 70% Win Rate with Nashor’s Tooth

Nashor’s Tooth

UNIQUE – ICATHIAN BITE: Basic attacks deal 15 (+ 25% AP) bonus magic damage on-hit.

Note: As of Patch 10.23, Katarina’s Passive, E, and R now apply on-hit effects.

Riftmaker

Stats
+80 ability power
+15 ability haste
+150 health
+15% omnivamp

Passive
UNIQUE – VOID CORRUPTION: For each second in combat with champions, deal 3% increased damage, stacking up to 5 times for a maximum of 15%. While this effect is fully stacked, convert 100% of the bonus damage into true damage.

MYTHIC PASSIVE: Empowers your other Legendary items with 5% magic penetration.

DOUBLE WHAMMY!

Katarina’s buff applies on-hit effects to all her abilities except for her Q. When you combine this with Nashor’s Tooth and Lichbane, Katarina one-shots enemies with just her Shunpo. 

Picking up a Riftmaker for the 15% Omnivamp makes her nearly impossible to kill without a good deal of hard-CC. Let’s mention this one too…this mythic item allows her to deal TRUE DAMAGE while also providing a scaling magic penetration. Insane.

Rek’Sai – 57% Win rate

Prowler’s Claw

Passive
+21 Lethality (13.07 − 21 (based on level) armor penetration)
MYTHIC PASSIVE: Empowers your other Legendary items with 5 lethality.

Active
UNIQUE – SANDSWIPE: After a brief cast time, dash in a line through the target enemy’s location, and upon completing the dash, deal 100 (+ 30% bonus AD) physical damage to the target and increase your damage dealt to them by 15% for the next 3 seconds (60 second cooldown).

Passive lethality is pretty cool on Rek’Sai, as it lets her build items like Black Cleaver and Sterak’s for mid to late game and still get plenty of lethality for snowballing early. The bonus dash from Prowler’s Claw also synergizes incredibly well with Rek’Sai’s kit and also improves her burst window by a huge amount. 

As a champion that was already incredibly good pre-changes, her synergy with this item definitely helped further her dominance.

Fizz – 60% Win rate

Hextech Rocketbelt

Passive
MYTHIC PASSIVE: Empowers your other Legendary items with 5 magic penetration.
Active

UNIQUE – SUPERSONIC: Dash in the target direction, though not through terrain, unleashing an arc of rockets that deal 200 − 300 (based on level) (+ 15% AP) magic damage. Then, gain 75% bonus movement speed toward enemy champions for 2 seconds (40 second cooldown).

Similar to Rek’Sai, this item is just absolutely perfect for Fizz. Protobelt was always a core item on Fizz to begin with, and this newly upgraded version also gives him additional bonus movespeed and magic penetration.

Malzahar – 59% Win rate

 Liandry’s Anguish

UNIQUE – TORMENT: Dealing ability damage burns enemies, causing them to take「 60 (+ 10% AP) (+ 4% target’s maximum health) magic damage over 4 seconds 」and the user to ignore 5% of their magic resistance, increasing by 5% per second over 4 seconds, up to 25%.

MYTHIC PASSIVE: Empowers your other Legendary items with 5 ability haste.

The latest change to the original Liandry was to also provide 5% magic resist shredding stacking up to 25%. 

This works incredibly well on Malzahar given his damage over time abilities, and also does insanely well given his ultimate literally holds them in place while his damage ramps up.

Ashe – 54% Win rate

Blade of the Ruined King

UNIQUE – MIST’S EDGE: Basic attacks deal (Melee role.png 10% / Ranged role.png 6%) of the target’s current health bonus physical damage on-hit, capped at 60 bonus damage against minions and monsters.

UNIQUE – SIPHON: Basic attacks on-hit apply a stack to enemy champions for 6 seconds, up to 2 stacks. Attacking a champion with 2 stacks consumes them to deal 40 − 120 (based on level) bonus magic damage on-hit and steal 25% of their movement speed for 2 seconds (20 second cooldown).

As far as marksmen go, most of them don’t seem to be particularly different from each other after the item changes. However, Ashe is definitely a big winner here.

Blade of the Ruined King’s movement speed steal is now a passive based on attacks. When you combine this item with Hurricane, Ashe essentially insta-procs it from long range, giving her massive kiting and chasing potential when combined with her already broken movement speed slowing attacks.

Ahri – 57% Win rate

 Luden’s Tempest

UNIQUE – ECHO: Damaging an enemy with an ability deals 100 (+ 15% AP) bonus magic damage to your target and 3 nearby enemies and grants you 30% bonus movement speed for 2 seconds (10 second cooldown).

MYTHIC PASSIVE: Empowers your other Legendary items with 5 magic penetration.
