Here are the notes and updates for League of Legends Patch 12.5b

League of Legends patch 12.5b has hit live servers, with Riot Games devs taking aim at seven bot laners⁠, including Zeri, Aphelios, and popular pro pick Jinx, in the “B” side update that will tide players over until 12.6 arrives on March 30.

League of Legends patch 12.5b has hit live servers, with Riot Games devs taking aim at seven bot laners⁠, including Zeri, Aphelios, and popular pro pick Jinx, in the “B” side update that will tide players over until 12.6 arrives on March 30.

Riot is taking a short development break throughout the month of March, meaning the next League patch cycle was meant to be four weeks instead of the usual two.

To tide players over until then, however, and to avoid the League Season 12 meta becoming too stale, the devs have hit nine champs⁠—seven of them ADCs⁠—and a support item with changes. The bot lane focus is designed to shake up picks in the southern position, which has been stale so far this year.

Riot Games devs said they were rushing out League Patch 12.5b this Wednesday to “take care of some urgent mid-patch balances before we go AFK for a week.”

The biggest focus in 12.5b has been meta AD carries. Aphelios, Jinx, and Zeri have all found themselves atop the Season 12 dogpile three months into the year, boasting a measurable 40 percent pick rate between them, according to popular League stats page Lolalytics. They’re all getting several nerfs.

Here’s the full list of notes and updates for League Patch 12.5b.
