League of Legends patch 10.24 update looks to buff Tryndamere while balancing many Mythic items

With the introduction of the new Mythic item system in League of Legends’ patch 10.23 preseason 11 update, the MOBA has seen significant shifts in both the meta and gameplay.

There were many overpowered and underwhelming aspects about the new items, and with the latest 10.24 patch, Riot Games will be looking to right some of the wrongs that the preseason brought with it.

While Tryndamere is all set to receive a buff in League of Legends patch 10.24, champions like Amumu, Hecarim, and Samira will get nerfed in the upcoming update.

Some of the new mythic items will be going through a lot of changes as well. Kraken Slayer will be getting some much-needed improvements in this patch. The more overpowered Eclipse and Liandry’s Anguish will be toned down, and their impact in the game significantly reduced.

Riot went into a lot of details as to why it made the changes it did in the patch on League of Legends’ official website.
