League of Legends Patch 11.4: Jungle Nerf and Other Changes

The Cosmic Drive is a mage item that provides Ability Power. This item is adjusted and it no longer gives you additional movement speed when you deal ability power damage. However, when you have 160 ability power, you automatically gain 20 ability haste and 10 to 30 movement speed. The ability haste has been reduced to 20 instead of 30. Everfrost and Eternal Winter The Everfrost Item can slow and root your enemies.

The Everfrost is another mage item that not a lot of players buy in the game. Riot changed the build path of this item to Lost Chapter, Blasting Wand, Kindlegem, and 450 Gold. Previously, the Build path of Everfrost before did not contain Kindlegem and required a much higher 1250 gold.

The health you receive from the item has also been increased from 200 to 250 and Glaciate Damage from 100 to 125 Ability Power Damage. Additionally, the Glacial Cast Time of Everfrost is now 0.15 seconds. Everfrost can be upgraded to Eternal Winter by Ornn, sporting 350 Health and 125(+35%) Glaciate Damage. Jungle Camp Changes Jungler has been one of the most dominant roles in both ranked and professional play in League of Legends. With the patch 11.4 update, there have been massive changes in the Experience and Gold potential of each jungle camp.

The changes in jungle camp experience and gold play a significant role in the Jungler's Items and level. In the early game, Junglers would not be able to buy a lot of items in their first back, and would fall behind in level compared to their laners as well. The current top-tier Junglers in this patch include Udyr and Elise. However, even if Skarner has been nerfed, we may still see him in the current meta as the changes only hurt him in the early game. Current Meta Changes Anivia is one of the mages that can use Cosmic Drive and Everfrost in the current meta.

With the changes in characters like Jinx and Caitlyn, we might see a comeback for late-game carries once again. There have been a lot of buffs when it comes to Anti-healing items like Morellonomicon, but Chemtech Putrifier remains the best Anti-healing item in the game. More and more players are starting to pick up Everfrost because of its increased sustainability in-game. Summary Samira in her official champion spotlight.

There are a lot of changes in patch 11.4 for League of Legends. Samira got targeted and nerfed on all of her skills. Another massive change is the amount of gold and experience each Jungle Camp gives. The jungle role has been a dominant role and with the recent jungle camp changes, it will be harder for them to catch up to their solo laners in the early game.
