After a long three-week break, there is finally a new League of Legends patch. A lot has happened in patch 11.16. There are two mini reworks and some of the strongest champions have finally been generated. Here are all the highlights of LoL Patch 11.16 for you!

If you are looking for all the info don’t worry. We have of course covered all the buffs and nerfs of LoL Patch 11.16 and Insight on the Karma and Sona rework for you. EarlyGame is the only LoL encyclopedia you need!

Tahm Kench Nerf in LoL Patch 11.16

Yes, you read that right. Tahm Kench, the king of the river and most annoying top laner in the meta, gets the nerf hammer – thanks! His top lane dominance was just too blatant. From Silver to Pro Play, Tahm Kench was everywhere.

• You want to know how to climb easy with him? Here’s the ultimate Tahm Kench guide from Get Good Coaching, 2 of the top 500 players in the world.

With LoL Patch 11.16 Riot nerfed the base damage of his passives. In addition, the healing of his Q has been lowered. With this, the game forge wants to weaken the early game of Tahm Kench in the long run. His damage and sustain were simply out of proportion. Sometimes he could win 1v2s on level 4. The game was already more or less decided. What do you think of the nerfs? Do you think it’s enough to finally get the catfish under control? Write us your opinion on Facebook!

Maokai buffs back on top lane with LoL Patch 11.16

Maokai has been a popular support pick in recent months. His E seedlings are a brilliant poke in the Earl Game. It’s super hard to trade against him without Boots, and the Hard Engage with his W quickly leads to firstbloods at level 3. Not to mention, his ultimate ability is a great Engage. But now look for Maokai to become a top laner again.

• The LoL: Crime City Nightmare skins have been leaked. Check out what we can expect with patch 11.17 here!

To make the Top Lane project a success, Riot has massively increased the healing of Maokai’s passive. This is to ensure the necessary sustain for the current meta. And how do you make the Top Lane variant even stronger? Sure! You just nerf the support abilities. Maokai gets an E-Nerf, which reduces the damage of the explosion, especially in the early game. Let’s see if that’s enough…

Karma rework is supposed to make her a support

We’ve already talked in detail about Karma’s mini rework, but of course it’s still one of the highlights of patch 11.16. The changes are meant to weaken her top lane variant and make her better especially on duo lanes.

• Have you seen the Reddit post that shows how broken Akshan really is!!!?

Her shield is getting better, but now always gives 40% movespeed. Her Q now does less damage but costs less mana and the Mantra variant has been buffed. Also, Auto Attacks no longer reduce the mantra cooldown by 1 second. But now it is 5 seconds due to Ability Hits! This makes poking even stronger as a support and the many mantras in a duo lane for the extra portion of utility insane!

Sona Rework Gets New Passive With LoL Patch 11.16

Riot explains that Sona’s old passive with the mana refund wasn’t fun. Now she gets stacks every time she uses an ability. The stacks, in turn, give her Ability Haste. That means she can build up stacks faster and faster as the game goes on. And here’s the kicker! At 60 stacks, she loses 1.5 seconds of cooldown on her Ulti for each additional one. We are curious to see how the rework looks like on the Rift and how many stuns it will rain in the late game.

What skins are coming with patch 11.16?

In this LoL patch we get more Coven skins (and two Old God skins, but they are also part of Coven). Look forward to a total of six new Coven skins and keep your eyes open for them in the store! Oh yeah, Leblanc even gets a Prestige skin!

Which champions will get a skin?

LoL Patch 11.16 welcomes the following champions to the coven:

• Ashe
• Evelynn (Legendary)
• Ahri
• Cassiopeia
• Warwick (Old God)
• Malphite (Old God)
• LeBlanc (Prestige)
