V3.6

New Skins in the Store
The following skins were added along with this patch:

Champions

 * (Passive)
 * After a brief cooldown, Lissandra's next ability costs no mana. Hitting an enemy with movement impairing abilities reduces Iceborn's cooldown.
 * (Q)
 * Lissandra throws a spear of ice that shatters on contact with the first enemy struck, dealing damage and slowing their movement speed for a short duration. Enemies behind the struck target also take damage.
 * (W)
 * Lissandra freezes the area around her, dealing damage to nearby enemies and rooting them for a short duration.
 * (E)
 * Lissandra casts a slow-moving, long-range ice claw in a line, dealing damage to all enemies in its path. Re-activating Glacial Path teleports Lissandra to the claw's current location.
 * (Ultimate)
 * On enemy cast: Lissandra freezes an enemy champion, damaging and stunning them briefly. Dark Ice emanates from the target, dealing damage and slowing nearby enemies.
 * On self-cast: Lissandra encases herself in ice, rooting herself in place briefly and becoming untargetable and invulnerable. Dark Ice emanates from Lissandra, dealing damage and slowing nearby enemies.


 * Sejuani has been relaunched with a new model, updates to her story and a revised kit.


 * (Passive)
 * Damaging an enemy with an ability or basic attack grants Sejuani bonus armor and reduces movement-slowing effects on her for a short duration.
 * (Q)
 * Sejuani charges forward, knocking enemies into the air and dealing magic damage to them based on their maximum health. The charge stops after knocking an enemy champion into the air.
 * (W)
 * Sejuani's next basic attack deals bonus magic damage to her target and all nearby enemies. She then spins her flail, dealing magic damage to nearby enemies for a few seconds.
 * (E)
 * Passive: Sejuani’s abilities and basic attacks apply Frost to enemies.
 * Active: Sejuani damages and slows all nearby enemies afflicted with Frost.
 * (Ultimate)
 * Sejuani throws a frost-forged bola in a line. If the bola hits an enemy champion, it shatters, stunning the target and all nearby enemies. If the bola reaches its maximum range without striking an enemy champion, it shatters and slows nearby enemies.


 * Trundle has been relaunched with a new model, updates to his story, and changes to his kit.


 * (previously )
 * No gameplay changes
 * (previously )
 * Damage adjusted to 20/40/60/80/100 (+1.0/1.05/1.1/1.15/1.2 attack damage) from 30/45/60/75/90 (+0.8/0.9/1/1.1/1.2 attack damage)
 * Now slows target by 75% for 0.1 seconds on hit.
 * Animation speed scales with Trundle's attack speed.
 * (previously )
 * Attack speed bonus increased to 20/35/50/65/80% from 20/30/40/50/60%.
 * Now grants 8/11/14/17/20% increased healing to Trundle.
 * No longer grants tenacity.
 * (previously )
 * Now interrupts channels.
 * Duration reduced to 6 seconds from 6.5.
 * (previously )
 * Damage dealt/health stolen now 20/22/24% max health damage instead of 200/350/500
 * Armor and magic resist stolen adjusted to 40% from 30/40/50%.
 * Subjugate still drains half instantly and half over time. The half over time now occurs over 4 seconds, reduced from 6 seconds.
 * The bonus/reduced bonus armor and magic resist now persist for 4 seconds after the drain ends, instead of expiring immediately (total duration now 8 seconds, up from 6).


 * : now properly bounces to other targets after hitting an enemy affected by.


 * : fixed a bug where using Missile Barrage restarted the cooldown for gaining another missile.


 * : can be cast at any health value, but will not reduce health below 1.
 * : can be cast at any health value, but will not reduce health below 1.


 * In Patch 3.5, we changed Draven’s Spinning Axe to lead Draven more accurately when he was benefitting from movement speed increases. Unfortunately, these changes were very disruptive for dedicated Draven players and didn’t offer enough potential for skilled players to showcase their skill through covering long distances between throwing and catching. We decided to revert the change.


 * Reverted a recent change affecting how Draven was led by Spinning Axe, restoring prior functionality.
 * Axe drop location will no longer be placed on the far side of impassable terrain from Draven.
 * Axe drop location will no longer be placed on the far side of impassable terrain from Draven.


 * Fixed a bug where Pulsefire Ezreal would occasionally not see gold popups for some of his last hits on targets in plain view.
 * Fixed a bug where Pulsefire Ezreal would play his death animation a second time if was leveled up while dead.
 * Fixed a bug where Pulsefire Ezreal would play his death animation a second time if was leveled up while dead.


 * : fixed a bug where Fiddlesticks would not immediately attack his target after successfully channeling Drain.


 * With our previous patch changes, we increased Karma’s overall usability and Mantra generation. These changes are more focused on smoothing out Karma’s early game presence by giving a damage increase to Inner Flame’s lower levels and buffing Inspire to make it far more effective at level one.
 * Additionally, by lowering the cooldowns of three of Karma’s abilities – including her Mantra – Karma will synergize better with Gathering Fire, allowing her to scale into late game.


 * : damage increased to 80/125/170/215/260 from 60/110/160/210/260.
 * : cooldown reduced to 16/15/14/13/12 seconds from 16/15.5/15/14.5/14.
 * Cooldown reduced to 10 seconds from 12.
 * Movement speed bonus increased to 40/45/50/55/60% from 20/30/40/50/60%.
 * : cooldown reduced to 45/42/39/36 seconds from 45.
 * : cooldown reduced to 45/42/39/36 seconds from 45.


 * Mana per level increased to 55 from 50.
 * : mana cost increased to 60/65/70/75/80 from 40/50/60/70/80.


 * : mana cost reduced to 80/85/90/95/100 from 80/90/100/110/120.
 * : mana cost reduced to 90/95/100/105/110 from 90/100/110/120/130.


 * With a 95% movement speed and attack speed reduction at max levels, Wither was completely shutting down champions reliant on auto-attacks with no opportunity for counterplay. By reducing the attack speed slow, Nasus is still effective at suppressing champions, but his victims will now have the option to turn and fight.


 * : attack speed slow amount has been halved.


 * : no longer expends if the target dies before Consume resolves.


 * : can be cast at any health value, but will not reduce health below 1.


 * We wanted to highlight Quinn’s great strengths as an unconventional AD carry with high cross-map mobility. As such, Quinn can now use Tag Team more reliably in and out of fights, and the additional movement speed on Heightened Senses should allow her to remain more elusive in skirmishes.
 * For the other two changes, we gave Blinding Assault an ability power ratio so that players can gain some additional power when building items like Trinity Force or when receiving the Baron Nashor buff. For Vault, we added a mini stun on Quinn’s target as she dashes toward them, making it more reliable as an escape.


 * : now has a 0.5 ability power ratio.
 * : passive as Quinn now grants 20/30/40/50/60 movement speed in addition to the attack speed bonus.
 * : now briefly interrupts the target.
 * Maximum movement speed bonus increased to 80/90/100% from 80% at all ranks.
 * Base movement speed bonus increased to 20/30/40% from 20% at all ranks.
 * Cooldown reduced to 140/110/80 seconds from 140/120/100.
 * can now be cast 1 second after activating Tag Team, down from 2.5.
 * can now be cast 1 second after activating Tag Team, down from 2.5.


 * : no longer prevents Rumble from automatically acquiring basic attack targets.


 * : fixed a bug that caused Ki Strike to be consumed when attacking wards.


 * : now also grants its effect when and  hit enemy champions.


 * Death Sentence and its passive were providing too many benefits at early levels with their high poke, burst damage, and lowered cooldowns. By moving the passive damage bonus from Death Sentence to Flay, Thresh players will now need to think strategically about how they level their skills.


 * Damage increased to 80/120/160/200/240 from 80/110/140/170/200.
 * Passive moved to Flay
 * Damage reduced to 65/95/125/155/185 from 65/105/145/185/225.
 * Now has Death Sentence’s previous passive (bonus damage on basic attacks).
 * Fixed a bug that caused the passive's damage to be consumed when attacking wards.
 * Fixed a bug where Flay sometimes dealt more damage than intended.
 * Fixed a bug that caused the passive's damage to be consumed when attacking wards.
 * Fixed a bug where Flay sometimes dealt more damage than intended.


 * With these changes, we wanted to accomplish a few separate things. First, we wanted to tone down Udyr’s overpowering early game Tiger Stance damage, but we also wanted to let him scale better into late game. These changes were implemented by scaling the attack damage ratios on Tiger Stance’s active damage.
 * Second, by changing the active damage of Tiger Stance from magical to physical, it should be more intuitive to itemize against Udyr. Additionally, it will also be easier for Udyr to itemize properly, as he will gain further benefits from attack damage focused items like Black Cleaver or Last Whisper.


 * Active damage changed to physical instead of magic.
 * Active damage changed to 30/80/130/180/230 (+1.2/1.3/1.4/1.5/1.6 attack damage) from 30/80/130/180/230 (+1.5 total attack damage).
 * Active attack speed increased to 30/40/50/60/70% from 15/20/25/30/35%.
 * No longer grants attack speed as a persistent effect.
 * New persistent effect: Basic attacks deal 15% of his total attack damage as bonus physical damage on hit.
 * : Udyr now only dashes when stunning champions.
 * : Udyr now only dashes when stunning champions.


 * : range now accurately matches her attack range.


 * : fixed a bug that caused Vault Breaker to become uncastable after activation.
 * : can no longer be cast while charging Vault Breaker.


 * Increased transparency when in brush.


 * Previously, Zed could safely farm large minion waves with Shadow Slash by consistently resetting the cooldown of Living Shadow. These changes were intended to promote aggressive play with Zed while also creating a window for players to engage on him in lane.


 * : cooldown reduced to 18/17/16/15/14 seconds from 22/20.5/19/17.5/16.
 * Hitting minions and monsters no longer reduces Living Shadow's cooldown.
 * Hitting enemy champions reduces Living Shadow's cooldown by 2 seconds, up from 1.
 * Hitting enemy champions reduces Living Shadow's cooldown by 2 seconds, up from 1.

Items

 * Elixir of Fortitude is meant to be an “all-in” burst of power for players looking to take control of a situation. With its low cost, however, players were simply defaulting to it as a general starting item with no significant repercussion. Increasing the gold cost of Elixir of Fortitude aligns it better with the risky strategy it was intended for.


 * Cost increased to 350 gold from 250.
 * Cost increased to 350 gold from 250.


 * Alongside our Elixir of Fortitude change, we wanted to tackle ultra-high sustain starts where players were beginning the game with as many health potions as possible in order to safely sustain in lane for long periods of time. However, these high sustain starts also destroy any incentive players have to interact. Manaless champions in particular benefitted from these starts, resulting in some mana-based opponents being unable to burn through the high levels of sustained HP. We will monitor starting item builds and champions that relied heavily on high potion starts, but wanted to focus on addressing passive high-sustain builds first.


 * Limited to 5 Health Potions at a time.
 * Limited to 5 Mana Potions at a time.
 * Upgrade cost reduced to 650 gold from 700 (total cost is now 1000 from 1050).
