Release Notes v1.0.0.116
There's a good number of bug fixes in this patch.
--Users can grant other users permission to invite their friends!
--Alistar has been remade so that he has slightly more MS and his passive deals AoE damage per second, while trading off damage from his main abilities and being a bit less of a CC machine. Trample seems to be his main damage feature now as he does his ult thing. Also, he can now misclick minions when trying to Headbutt. lol
--Caitlyn's skills (except her harass) require less mana. Ace in the Hole got significantly cheaper and has an even longer range.
--Beware of hybrid Ezreals! Mystic Shot now scales with AP at 0.2, and Trueshot Barrage now includes both AD+AP for its damage instead of one or the other.
--Fiddlesticks has been remade so that his Drain no longer gives him crazy amounts of HP during laning or any other early level, his Dark Wind now hurts less at lower levels but hurts more late-game per hit, and his ult now deals larger damage at high amounts of AP. Personally, I think he went from "snowball or bust" mode to "you must be really good or bust".
--Gangplank has been remade so that his deny mechanic turned into a "I can run really fast whenever I want to now" mechanic. If you thought he was hard to chase down before, you'll be sorely frustrated now. Parrrley does less damage, but pirate can spam it more often (gross damage is less), and to compensate for his "free" Raise Moral buff, his Citrus heals slightly less.
--Ryze's Overload scales less with mana, but his ult now grants him up to 25% spellvamp. Less bursty, more survivability.
--Sona's Power Chord green and purple have been buffed. Hymn of Valor aura now grants more AD and AP.
--Twisted Fate's blue card now gives him 65% mana instead of 50% (???)
--Xin Zhao's Battle Cry passive no longer goes away, so he'll have quite a bit of AS even after his "surprise buttsex" combo. To compensate, the AS buff got debuffed. Also, his ultimate defense buffs scale with how many champions he hits.
--Randuin's Omen now has 75 armor, but has the additional cost of a cloth armor.
--Because Riot is too lazy to adjust their store tech, they decided that Blasting Wand now advertises Void Staff instead of Archangel's Staff. Good move.
--Fears no longer stack additively, as it was a glitch. Wait what?
--Snowy slow particles no longer CC your computer. You were not affected if you had low particle graphics to begin with. Now if only Riot would address the other graphical lags...
--Champion bios have been updated! If you're a lore feggot like I am, you might want to take a look.
