Riot Games has fully detailed the contents of League Patch 12.23b, which is now available as the last batch of major changes implemented within the game this year.

As Patch 12.23b is not a “full” patch, almost all of the aspects of League being altered are nerfs towards meta offenders, rather than buffing those that need a bit of help—which will likely be saved for the start of season 2023.

Notably, nearly all of the nerfs on this list are a direct result of the ongoing preseason, which not only brought major changes to the jungle role, but adjusted a handful of powerful items that have allowed certain champions to thrive a bit better than they should. More changes to items are expected to be released next year, as the development team needs more time to evaluate them following the holiday break.

Here is the full list of patch notes for the nerfs (and single buff) now live in League with Patch 12.23b.
