Patch 4.2

The usual things that comes along with patches. Reworks, bugs fixed, nerfs on champions and some changes to some items.

Xerath got a complete makeover along with Skarner. Xerath received a new theme and base mana/mana regeneration got lowered by a tiny bit. Skarner got a small rework and got a bit of a buff where his W has a lower cool down. It also provides a faster movement buff along with a big shield. Something cool is that Skarner wont celebrate when he misses his ult. Not sure if anyone notices it but if he does land it, he'll say "Now I've got you!!" 

A lot of changes to a ton of champions but I just like to talk about a few that I liked to XD. However you can go look at them at this link :

1) Ashe - I know you don't see her much in competitive play or even in soloQ a ton but I love playing her. There's not much of a change done to her other than the cool down of Hawkshot being reduced at higher levels where it used to be 60 sec at all level. Also, you get 3 gold per  kill at any level instead of 1/2/3/4/5. 

2) Mundo - This guy is still as overpowering as before. The only change that was done to him was the shortening of his cleavers width so now it's a bit easier to juke and hard to land. 


3) Kayle - A champion that takes a bit to get going but gets really strong late game. Sadly, her Q (Reckoning) had a nerf from 1.0 AP ratio to 0.6. Aside from her Q, her W had a buff from 0.35 AP ratio to 0.45 and the movement speed that comes along now scales with AP. A great change is her ult; it now cost no mana to cast. 


4) Rumble - I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY BUT I HAD TO MENTION HIM BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT RIOT WROTE: "Rumble now spits real flame instead of meatballs"  LOL.

There are also changes to Yasuo and Ziggs and Thresh but I don't feel like going over them. 


The changes in this patch doesnt cause big change in the meta for now.
