League of Legends Patch 9.15: Buffing Lee Sin, Kha’Zix, Vayne, And More Balance Changes

A new patch in League of Legends will be released on July 31, and it will not just bring the new Project skins starting with August 1, but it also comes with many buffs to the champions that really needed it.

Here are all the official patch notes from the League of Legends website – as always, we will only focus on all the balance changes that will be introduced in Patch 9.15. Some of these buffs and nerfs showed up in 9.15 PBE, but suffered some tweaks along the way.

Before we get started, if you’re looking for all the Teamfight Tactics changes, we’ve prepared a separate article, which you can check out here.
