Crowd Control[]
- General
- The following channels are now interrupted by disarming effects instead of silencing effects, as with
The Culling: Retroactively applying new features.
- The following interactions are now disabled while under immobilizing effects instead of while under silencing effects:
I'm reworking Blind into a archetypal crowd control effect: as with Disarm (cannot attack); Silence (cannot cast); and Root (cannot move). Blind now prevents the target from seeing.― Emptylord
- No longer causes champion attacks to miss. Minions and monsters will continue to miss their attacks.
- Now reduces champion vision radius to 250 and removes their allied vision for the duration. The radius is negotiable, and could even be on a per-effect basis.
and
Paranoia are now described as persistent-area-blinds, similar to
persistent-area-silence.- Being blinded will now reset the target's auto-attack timer (cancelling any in-progress attacks). Due to Martial Poise, Kalista's attack will not be cancelled but due to the miss-on-sight-loss mechanic it will function the same.
- Charm, Flee and Taunt now apply Blind.
-
Blinding Assault now disarms instead of blinds, and is renamed Dazing Assault or Dazzling Assault.
- Now applies the effects of Blind - i.e. reduces the target's vision radius and removes their allied vision for the duration. The target will always have vision of the source.
- Unlike other vision reduction/blind effects, the screen is pink and hazy instead of black.
- Now applies the effects of Blind - i.e. reduces the target's vision radius and removes their allied vision for the duration. The target always have vision of the source.

-
Bandage Toss - "... Amumu will not pull himself forward if his movement is inhibited."
-
Dredge Line - "... Nautilus will not drag himself forward if his movement is inhibited."
-
Dragon Strike - "... he pulls himself forward... This will not happen if Jarvan's movement is inhibited."
-
Zenith Blade - ... dash to the last enemy... This will not happen if Leona's movement is inhibited."
- Alternatively, each of these effects will explicitly break free of crowd control effects.

- Now reduced the target's base health regeneration to 0 for the duration.
- The effect has been removed from all sources except Ignite, including:
Bug fixes[]
- Abilities with casting times (e.g. Piltover Peacemaker and Final Spark)
- The abilities are now cancelled upon death even if you are protected by revival effects (namely and Guardian Angel).
- The abilities are now cancelled upon death even if you are protected by revival effects (namely and
-
- 「 Grog Soaked Blade now correctly refreshes Twin Fang's cooldown. 」「 Grog Soaked Blade no longer uses the poison particle effect, which was introduced in V5.1. 」
- 「 Grog Soaked Blade now correctly refreshes
-
Wall of Pain
- 「 The wall now correctly grant sight across the whole wall rather than just around the pillars. 」「 The wall will no longer clear the fog of war on the map except where it's granting vision. 」 Presently, the wall clears a huge area of fog of war on the map but only grants sight around the pillars - meaning a brush can look empty when it's not.
-
Nether Grasp
- Malzahar will now correctly form a tether with Olaf during Ragnarok. Currently the ability goes on cooldown and nothing happens.
- As with other cleansing effects, Ragnarok will now only remove the suppression and will not break the tether.
- Malzahar will now correctly form a tether with
-
Spirit Fire

-
Diplomatic Immunity

-
Tunnel
- Forced actions (taunt, charm, fear) will no longer affect Rek'Sai until she completes the tunnel (as with other crowd control effects versus Rek'Sai, and forced actions versus other dashes). They will no longer pull her out of the ground.
-
Tectonic Disruption
- The ability is now correctly negated by Wind Wall. Currently only the animation is destroyed, but the ability still happens albeit invisibly.
- The ability is now correctly negated by
-
Wind Wall
- Two opposing Wind Walls will now correctly destroy one another.
Standardization[]
General[]
- All unit-targeted abilities are now calculated edge-to-edge instead of center-to-center, as with basic attacks and most modern unit-targeted abilities.
- Becoming untargetable will no longer cause homing projectiles to fizzle instantaneously. Instead, they will only fizzle upon reaching the target if still applicable.
- Bouncing abilities whose current target becomes untargetable while en route will only fizzle if there are no other valid targets upon reaching the target - otherwise, they will bounce from an untargetable enemy as normal.
- The "Assassin" class has been renamed "Rogue" to distinguish between the ability to assassinate (i.e. burst damage) and a mobile/agile damage dealer. This follows the same logic as why Carries were rebranded as Marksmen, because the ability to carry is not exclusive to ranged autoattackers. The following champions are no longer classified as Rogues:
- The following abilities will no longer factor enemies who spell shield the ability for the purposes of triggering secondary effects:
- The following effects that can trigger on champion assist now have a reduced assist timer of 3.5 seconds, as with Get Excited!:
-
Shadow Dance
-
Dark Frenzy
-
Leap
-
Highlander
-
Carrion Renewal
-
Rocket Jump
-
Burst of Speed
-
Living Vengeance
- Dangerous Game
Visual Aids[]
- The following interactive debuffs now have a visible particle effect: Heck, all debuffs should have a visible particle effect - but especially the ones that other abilities interact with.
- The following abilities now utilize the per-target cooldown visual aid, as with
Sweeping Blade:
- The following effects now show the tether radius while active, as with Soul Shackles:
- The following thresholds will now have particle effect to indicate that the threshold has been reached, as with Wish:
-
Equilibrium Strike - Targets with less health than you.
-
Certain Death - Targets below 15% of their maximum health.
-
Wind Slash - Targets below 25% of their maximum health.
-
Mana Barrier,
Mirror Image and
Chosen of the Storm could feature a pointer on their health bar to denote the trigger threshold. Whether or not the pointer is visible could also the clarity on the effect's cooldown.
- This list may be incomplete.
- Damage Mitigation
- All effects that mitigate damage will now display those values with floating text, as with Unbreakable.
- Health shields will now only use white, e.g. Template:Color from Eye of the Storm.
- Magic damage reduction/shields will use purple, e.g. Template:Color from Black Shield.
- Physical damage reduction/shields will use gold, e.g. Template:Color from Doran's Shield.
- All other forms of damage reduction will use blue, e.g. Template:Color from Valiant Fighter, Intervention and Unbreakable. It has been pointed out the mana cost indicators use blue - thus I am open to suggestions.
- Health shields will now only use white, e.g. Template:Color from
- The floating text has a "crit" variant that is used for bigger-impact/unappreciated abilities (e.g. Intervention and Vengeful Maelstrom, respectively) - the text is larger, bolder and has a small icon adjoining the number (similar to ), such as a shield icon.
- Shields that trigger automatically (such as Lifeline) would "crit" when triggered, but use standard sized text thereafter.
- As with damage text, these numbers will combine if multiple sources of damage reduction overlap (only applicable to floating text of the same color/size).
- Armor and magic resist mitigation numbers can be enabled in the options. These will use tan and purple text, respectively, and will use a smaller font-size akin to damage taken from minions.
- Incoming damage mitigated (damage you're not taking) and outgoing damage mitigated (damage you're not dealing) can be enabled/disabled separately.
Auto-Targetings[]
- Standard behaviour is now that if you cannot see them you cannot target them, even if the targeting is done automatically. This is with the distinctive exception of effects that instantaneously hit everything nearby.
- The following abilities are now incapable of hitting unseen/stealthed targets:
-
Fox-Fire and Spirit Rush - Proposed Effect: Charm now grant sight of the charmed enemy.
-
Static Field
-
Pyroclasm - Proposed Effect: Blaze now grants standard sight of burning enemies.
-
Arcane Shift
-
Blade Waltz - Proposed Effect: Fiora now gains sight of her initial target and briefly reveals enemies damaged.
-
Dark Wind
-
Bouncing Blades and Death Lotus
-
Malefic Visions
-
Sapling Toss - Saplings will now behave like
Volatile Spiderling - capable of changing to a higher priority target after initial target selection, but will lose interest when they lose sight.
-
Mace of Spades
-
Double Up - Proposed Effect: Impure Shots is now traceable through the fog of war and stealth, similar to Dusckbringer. Double Up can hit enemies afflicted with Impure Shots regardless of sight.
-
Spell Flux
-
Hymn of Valor
-
Ravenous Flock
-
Chain of Corruption - Proposed Effect: Chain of Corruption can select targets at any point during the 2.5 seconds, not just on impact with a target. Additionally, it will grant sight of snared enemies as well as those it's locked on to.

Tides of Blood
-
Thunder Claws

- The following ability-damage sourced from pets will now be displayed as their ability power and will update dynamically, as with
Plants:
- The following autonomous pets now use the same AI logic as
Plants and will specify the logic in the tooltip: - "Plants follow standard minion AI, but will also change target to focus a champion recently attacked by Zyra (a cross-hair will appear marked enemies) or the current target of Zyra's basic attacks.
On-Hit Effects and Spell Effects[]
