Upcoming Twisted Fate Nerfs and Other Changes in League of Legends Patch 14.4

Introduction

Riot Games developers have announced additional changes to be implemented in Patch 14.4, specifically targeting the champion Twisted Fate.

Twisted Fate Nerfs

Twisted Fate, a popular mage in League of Legends, is set to receive significant nerfs. The changes, posted by Spideraxe on Feb. 15, include a reduction in attack speed growth from three percent to 2.5 percent. The AP ratio on Twisted Fate's Blue card will also be decreased from 115 percent to 100 percent. Additionally, the AP ratio on his E ability will be reduced from 50 percent to 40 percent.

Reason for Nerfs

The upcoming nerfs to Twisted Fate come as no surprise to regular League players. In the mid lane, Twisted Fate currently boasts a win rate of 51.91 percent in Emerald+ ranks, according to U.GG. However, he is not the top-performing champion in this role. Surprisingly, Twisted Fate is dominating in the top lane and AD carry roles, making him arguably the strongest pick in the current patch.

Other Changes in Patch 14.4

Patch 14.4 will bring a range of changes to League of Legends. In addition to the Twisted Fate nerfs, other champions such as Lulu, Aurelion Sol, Renekton, and Volibear will receive both buffs and nerfs. Various items and systems, particularly Support items, will also undergo minor tweaks.

Impact on Solo Queue

The upcoming changes in Patch 14.4 are expected to have a significant impact on the solo queue. Players will have the opportunity to experience these changes when the update is released on Thursday, Feb. 22.
