The current League of Legends patch in PBE is patch 10.3, and will be released to the live client on February 5th. In a recent Tweet from Riot Scruffy (Mark Yetter), we see what champions will get buffed and nerfed this patch.
Aside from the list of champions, we have also spotted a few of those changes in the current 10.3 PBE patch, along with some TFT balance changes. You should head over to our previous article on balance changes to see what other tweaks have been made last week.
Champion Balance – Patch 10.3 PBE
In a patch preview shared by Riot Scruffy, we can see which champions will be getting nerfed and which will be getting buffed. Notice Gnar’s changes did not apply to this patch, as they have been reverted.
