A few days ago, the League of Legends 9.14 patch rolled out with lots of balance updates plus new counter mechanics dedicated to specific champions’ skills. After the release of the League of Legends 9.14 patch, Riot released the so-called League of Legends 9.14 mid-patch which brings Kalista bug fix and addition balance changes.
As for the counter mechanics added via the latest League of Legends patch, we have the following list for you:
Anti-shield – Blitzcrank (R) and Renekton (W) break damage-absorbing shields
Anti-healing – Katarina (R – 60%) and Kled (Q – 60% for 5 s) healing reduction increased.
Flat damage reduction – Leona (W) and Fizz (Passive) are stronger, reducing damage received.
Improvements to true sight mechanics – Karma (W), LeBlanc (E), Morgana (R) now reveal successfully rooted targets for the duration of the root as well.
Anti-mobility – Ahri (E), Cassiopeia (W, E), and Poppy (W) – buffed to “outplay their slippier opponents without increasing their overall power.”
