As patch 11.5 for League of Legends rolls out, everyone is excited about the release of new skins for Kogmaw, Yuumi, and Malzahar. Aside from the adorable Bee skinline, we will talk about the recent adjustments included in Patch 11.5. Item Changes Below are some of the item changes in League of Legends patch 11.5. Guinsoo's Rageblade Guinsoo's Rageblade is adjusted for Senna.
Senna has been seen frequently on the pro and ranked scene lately and one of the reasons for this is Guinsoo's Rageblade. Riot updated the wrath conversion to 2 bonus physical damage on-hit instead of a 1% crit chance. You can only have a 100% maximum crit chance and wrath can now be affected by damage modifiers. Muramana Muramana is now heavily focused on Damaging abilities.
People seem to use both Muramana and Essence Reaver simultaneously. Riot now added Shock, which deals 1.5% of your maximum mana as bonus damage whenever you do a basic attack. All melee abilities will also have a bonus of 3.5% max mana as additional damage while ranged abilities will have 2.7% max mana and 6% total attack damage as additional damage.
A bug appeared where the Shock will be activated per ability. Riot now fixed this bug and only allowed Shock to be activated once per champion. Stridebreaker Stridebreaker's dash range and speed are now increased.
People are using Stridebreaker's dash more than its slash so Riot have attempted to balance it out. Dash Range: 300 from 200 Dash Speed is slightly increased. Slow Decay: Reduced to 40% over 2 seconds from 60%. Damage is now reduced to 75% AD from 100% AD. Serpent's Fang Serpent's Fang is buffed, reducing incoming shields.
Serpent's Fang now reduces any incoming shields on melee champions by 50% and 25% on ranged champions whenever you damage them. Any enemy unaffected by Shield Reaver will reduce incoming shields by 50% for melee and 25% for ranged champions. Riot also fixed the bug that the effect would not activate when you have an on-hit item. Maw of Malmoritus Maw of Malmoritus is now more affordable. The total cost of Maw of Malmoritus is updated from 3100 gold to 2800 gold. Black Cleaver Black Cleaver now has the Rage effect which grants movement speed for every stack of Carve.
Black Cleaver does not deal with the Butcher effect anymore which deals with bonus physical damage. Instead, it is replaced by the Rage effect, whenever you deal bonus physical damage, you get 5 movement speeds for every stack of Carve every 2 seconds.

Current Meta Changes
Patch 11.5 focuses on balancing out the meta in favor of other jungle champions. Champions like Udyr and Rammus have been dominating the map and completely leaving champions like Sejuani and Master Yi behind. Riot also focused on solo laners like Azir and Qiyana, where Qiyana now deals more damage in the late game. The AoE damage of Seraphine is now decreased but it seems that the ultimate cooldown only affected Seraphine as support.
