Riot Aims to Return Karma, Rell, and Camille to Their Original Roles for Patch 14.7

The upcoming changes in League of Legends will see Karma, Rell, and Camille returning to their original lanes after reigning in alternative roles.

The new season of League of Legends introduced several changes to the game that allowed certain champions to explore other lanes than their usual ones. However, Riot Games seems to no longer be satisfied with these rotations. In patch 14.7, the developer will apply adjustments to bring Karma, Rell, and Camille back to their original roles.

Restoring the Balance

With the new item system and central changes to champions, Rell and Karma were seen outside of the bottom lane, venturing into the jungle and mid lane respectively. Meanwhile, Camille became one of the top supports thanks to her comfortable initiation and the loss of ground in the top lane.

14.7!

Systems
– Following up on the previous patch changes, further nerfs to support items
– Shiv nerfs are a follow up to the Crit item buffs from last patch; champs like Jinx/Zeri are too strong, but other champions are ~the right power level

Riot aims to bring Karma, Rell, and Camille back to their original roles for patch 14.7 of League of Legends with clear changes for the trio of champions. Lead Designer Matt “Riot Phroxzon” Leung-Harrison teased the modifications we will see in the upcoming update, highlighting the adjustments.

Karma’s Adjustments

For Karma, the changes will focus on reducing some of her damage and how she utilizes Malice, improving her shields to regain her popularity as a support.

Rell’s Changes

Rell will deal less damage to camps to slow down jungle clearing, making her better in the support role.

Camille’s Improvements

Camille, on the other hand, receives improvements to Precision Protocol (Q) with reduced cooldown and increased attack speed. Additionally, Hookshot (E) has reduced base damage, as it was the ability that allowed her to be an abusive support alongside the Conqueror rune.

With the nerfs to Bloodthirster, the Steel Shadow should return to the top lane where she belongs.

Final Thoughts

In conclusion, Riot Games’ decision to return Karma, Rell, and Camille to their original roles in Patch 14.7 reflects a commitment to game balance and diversity.

By addressing the off-meta placements of these champions, Riot aims to ensure a more enjoyable and competitive experience for players across all roles. Stay tuned for further updates as Riot continues to refine and optimize the League of Legends gameplay experience.
