League of Legends' pre-notes for patch update 12.12b are officially out. This is an extension to the original 12.12 patch where certain champions are set to receive further adjustments to the game.

In the current state, champions like Senna, Tahm Kench, Seraphine, and Yuumi are way too over-powered. Players have been complaining a lot about the last two, especially, as their scaling is a bit too good. When that is combined with the durability changes, these champions are pretty much unbeatable in the late-game stage.

Apart from that, certain champions like Katarina and Caitlyn, who have been underwhelming for quite some time, are getting buffs that will make them more effective in the game.
