League of Legends patch 12.2 is next up on the Riot Games franchise’s busy update schedule ⁠— this time around, the LoL devs are reworking Tahm Kench and Janna, buffing the infamous wind brothers Yasuo and Yone, adding new champion Zeri to the mix, and plenty more.

Tahm Kench, Janna reworks finally arrive

League of Legends Season 12 rolls on, with more than a dozen champions getting buffs, nerfs, and changes, and an entirely new character making her debut.

The wind brothers ⁠— Yasuo and Yone ⁠— are now getting some much-needed buffs, after Immortal Shieldbow’s nerfs in LoL patch 12.1 hit them harder than Riot expected. According to developer Phlox, they “suffered substantially” from the changes, slipping to a shock 47.4% win rate.

On top of that, Riot is releasing sixteen new skins.

And finally, the Tahm Kench and Janna mini-reworks are finally set to arrive. Here’s all the details on League of Legends patch 12.2, coming in the next two weeks.

When is League of Legends patch 12.2?
Season 12 is finally here, and Riot Games are back on their usual League of Legends schedule when it comes to update cycles and patches hitting live servers.

That means players can expect the first Season 12 patch to arrive on January 19. The Tuesday update will begin rolling out at 10am AEDT on Oceanic servers, before a worldwide rollout across the rest of the day.

Here’s all the key LoL patch rollout times:

3am PT (NA)
5am GMT (EUW)
3am CET (EUNE)
8am KR (Korea)
Players can expect a few hours of downtime once patching begins.

Matchmaking and competitive queues across all League of Legends servers will be disabled three hours before the very last Season 12 patch is officially deployed.

What’s coming in LoL patch 12.2?
Zeri debuts in 12.2
The next League of Legends champion, Zeri, has finally been revealed. A new AD carry from Runetera’s polluted twin undercity Zaun, she’s jumping from Arcane onto Summoner’s Rift.

Born into a working-class family in the undercity, she worked alone in a resistance against the chem-barons of Zaun who were destroying her homeland. Her electric charm wasn’t enough though, although her efforts inspired those suffering under the chem-barons to rebuild their lives.

With help from Entresol neighbors, she was able to harness and channel her electric energy into a rifle powered by emotions, and a jacket to control her powers.

Janna rework finally arrives
Riot Games have been hard at work on a Janna rework, and are attempting to push the enchanter support away from her dominant poke builds by handing her bonus utility in her other spells and more power in her Q ability.

Her auto attacks and W are taking a hit early, with her basic attack range is being cut from 550 to 500. Janna will no longer gain bonus magic damage based on her movement speed too. To compensate for these changes, she’s getting a slight AD and move speed buff.

Her W is having its range adjusted, slow duration increased, and damage raised, but at the cost of a significantly longer cooldown so it can’t be spammed in lane.

Skins
Crystal Rose Janna

The desire for peace brought about more than just a yearly festival. Born from this universal wish was Janna, a spirit whose magic hangs like a wreath over the night. Though she’s regarded by most as a legend, guests sometimes say they see a beautiful woman float by. Maybe it’s a trick of the crystal rose’s light…


Crystal Rose Akshan

As roguish as he is handsome, Akshan abandons his daring adventures each year to make a highly-requested appearance at the festival. He might be seen stealing a dance or two, but he only has eyes for one among the crowd. Their moral… discrepancies are no match for the electrifying chemistry between them.


Withered Rose Zeri

Zeri’s not one for the backstabbing schemes at the Festival of the Crystal Rose. She’d rather take action than formulate some complicated plan; and that’s why partygoers will never suspect that this year, she’s got one: Crash the party in the name of the rejects! No one– not even a dashing, would-be rival– will see her coming.


Withered Rose Elise

Elise is in attendance at every annual gala, despite never once receiving a formal invitation. Rumor has it she’s been blacklisted for spinning webs of lies, forming and disbanding allegiances in the span of a single evening. Attendees have also noted her suitors never seem to make a return visit to the festival.


Firecracker
Firecracker Sett

Best known for his brawling, few realize that Sett is also an accomplished Lion Dancer. It’s a surprisingly similar skillset; performing is all about good footwork, being fierce, and knowing how to wow the crowd– and who does that better than the Boss himself?


Firecracker Teemo

Teemo cooks up his specialty steamed buns every year for the revel, and every year they’re a big hit– literally. Those explosives pack a punch! Almost as much of a punch as the bill for all that property damage.


Firecracker Xin Zhao

Xin Zhao is a popular man at the New Year’s festival– and not just because he hands out lots of red envelopes. He is the reliable protector that keeps his more chaotic friends from getting into often-explosive mischief, and does it all with a cool, casual grace that leaves everyone swooning.


Firecracker Tristana

As the master of fireworks for this year’s revel, Tristana has worked hard to create a show the festival goers will never forget. Now that the New Year is here she’s excited to sit back and enjoy the night with her friends… but she’s saved some of her best explosions for last.


Firecracker Diana

Market stalls offer the Lady of the Moon their wares freely, in hope of receiving a blessing for the New Year. Diana is happy to oblige, even if it means getting stopped every few feet by another well-wisher… Luckily, Diana’s festival buddies are patient.


Porcelain
Porcelain Ezreal

After accidentally unleashing an ancient evil sorceress while doing research in the university archive, Ezreal narrowly escaped certain death when Lux and the spirit of the Tiger Relic stepped in to save him. Though he is new to the world of magic, Ezreal has joined the Protectors– determined to help solve the problem he (inadvertently) caused.


Porcelain Amumu

Eternally young due to his bond with the rat Relic, Amumu’s innocence belies centuries of existence. He’s been lonely in ages past, but no more: Lux is like his big sister, and Kindred is his… Kindred? Companionship hasn’t stopped his occasional tantrums, of course, but at least now there’s someone to shine his porcelain eyes after a nice cathartic cry.


Porcelain Lissandra

Long ago, the sorceress Lissandra stole the Snake Relic from the ancient Protectors in a bid to gain immortality. Cast down and sealed away for her crimes, Lissandra spent 메이저사이트
centuries of solitude scheming a way to take all twelve Zodiac Relics for herself, waiting for the perfect time to strike… And now Ezreal has given her the chance.


Porcelain Kindred

Once a skilled hunter and her fierce hound, the two were so bonded that their souls remained together when they were preserved inside the dog Zodiac Relic. Now they are two halves of a whole, mentoring generations of Protectors like Lux and Amumu and standing guard eternally over the ancient magic that keeps them alive.


Porcelain Lux

As the current leader of the Protectors and wielder of the rabbit Relic, Lux is determined to keep up her sunny disposition in spite of everything: her own arduous sorcery training, the newbie archaeologist who stumbled into their ranks, and the sudden threat of an awakened evil now out for vengeance. She’s got this… right? Right.


Porcelain Lux Prestige Edition
A leader bends, but never breaks. In the Protectors’ pursuit of ancient evil, Lux has navigated her team over obstacles that even the archeologist– in all his unbridled confidence– thought insurmountable. Lux’s power, once a dim light in a darkened world, now shines brightly. And her ragtag group of fragile personalities, the Protectors? With her support, deserving of their title.


Brave Phoenix Xayah Prestige Edition
Her heart unwavering, Xayah carries the fenghuang’s blessing with her across the once peaceful lands. She makes quick work of those who would lay waste to the relics of the past, her magic mirroring their beauty in a harmonious dance. If they wield their power in order to honor their ancestors, Xayah is confident that the forces of good will prevail.
