LoL Worlds 2024 Patch
Players will compete on the 14.18 Patch as it brought a lot of buffs and nerfs to pro-play champions that were dominating the meta. We will also get to see Aurora in action, so be on the lookout for this bunny mage making some sick plays in the hands of the best players in the world.
The item changes also will heavily impact the meta, as we might see champs like Orianna, Syndra, Hwei, and Ahri making a comeback, with possibly far fewer ADC mid picks. However the meta develops, we are certainly in for a ride so make sure to tune in for this year's League of Legends World Championship.
