The new shield granted by inner, inhib, and nexus towers (via the Vanguard item in each tower's inventory) is now white/silver instead of yellow/bronze colored.



Finally, we have a big batch of champion base stat tweaks which I'm listing up here in an attempt to avoid confusion due to the vast amount of changes to base stats in preseason.



PLEASE REMEMBER that MOST CHAMPIONS have received some sort of adjustment to their base stats during preseason. The changes listed below are relative to those preseason stat values and NOT RELATIVE to live so they may seem a bit strange.

Base HP increased to 540 from 539.2

Base armor lowered to 23 from 23.2

Heimerdinger

Champions

Amumu

Despair (W) damage changed to 1/1.5/2/2.5/3% of enemies maximum health from 1.5/1.8/2.1/2.4/2.7%

Heimerdinger

Techmaturgical Repair Bots (Passive) no longer buffs Heimerdinger. [Context: Heimerdinger's base health regen was buffed (base at ~10 HP5 ) in an earlier patch to compensate this change. This is so he benefits properly with the new +% of base regen itemization in preseason.]

Kha'Zix

Void Spike (W) cooldown increased to 10 seconds from 8 seconds

Soraka

Equinox (E) cooldown increased to 24/22/20/18/16 from 18/17/16/15/14

Speculate away.[This wonderful section denotes any changes that are directly connected with things that are coming in the 2015 preseason, including the jungle itemization changes, objective changes, etc]It is worth noting that the "preseason 2015 map" has been renamed to just "Summoner's Rift Beta", presumably since the preseason changes likely are headed to live in 4.20.The biggest set of changes in today's update is a slew of new item and effect icons!First up is the new jungle item icons, which have a "gem slot" that changes based on which enchant you purchase.There are also new variations of Smite's icon, color coded to match the different versions of Smite granted by each of the new jungle items!Each of the four new Elixirs also have their own unique icons now!Finally, we have new item icons for the three brand new items:Outside of items, we also have an assortment of other icons!, the new jungle monster that roams the river and grants a speed shrine when killed, now has his own portrait icon.Baron's, part of the new bonuses granted when slaying Baron Nashor, also has a new icon!Thebuff, which is NOT currently on the PBE, also has a new icon.There are also two new icons relating to the, one while gaining stacks of Dragon Slayer and one while at five stacks.Miss out on previous updates from this PBE cycle?
