League of Legends patch 9.19 is live for testing on the PBE. The balance changes so far look pretty light but there are some changes to Garen and Sylas that you’ll want to check out. The Might of Demacia’s changes are back for more testing and there’s also a host of new skins for you to see.
With this year’s Worlds tournament in sight, it’s pretty likely that Riot won’t be looking to make any huge changes to gameplay right now, which in turn means that Garen’s changes are almost certain not to ship. Expect more small tweaks much like in League of Legends patch 9.18.
In terms of skins, Hextech Amumu arrives as a new crafting exclusive skin, with three new entries to the Immortal Journey skins – Majestic Empress Morgana, Splendid Staff Nami, and Valiant Sword Riven, who will come with her own Prestige Edition skin. Finally, Ryze is this year’s Championship skin so you’ll need to pick him up quickly if you want to add him to your collection.
