Just as League of Legends enthusiasts were settling into a patch for the 2023 season, Riot Games surprised everyone with a last-minute balance update in the form of League Patch 13.24b, right before the holiday season.

This patch brings changes to eight League champions, including Yone⁠—who was in dire need of nerfs⁠—and the new champion Hwei. The Visionary was a central focus for the League developers this time, as the 166th character in the game struggled to make a significant impact, currently maintaining a 36.74 percent win rate, as reported by Lolalytics.

Nerfs also target champions like Orianna, Syndra, Sylas, and Yone. League designer Matt Leung-Harrison mentioned that these champions have been “a bit strong to varying degrees in pro play… and elite solo queue” in recent times.

Lastly, the Riot team intends to “throw a bone”—a pun likely intended⁠—to champions like Naafiri and Warwick, who have been struggling. Naafiri, in particular, has been on the radar for some time, and sources indicate that the 13.23 nerfs impacted her strength on the Rift a bit too much.
