Wild Rift patch 4.3b notes: Akali buffed, Glacial Augment nerfed, more

Terry OhBy Updated:4 Mins Read

Wild Rift patch 4.3b is supplementary patch, providing minor gameplay changes and balance. There’s nothing incredibly game breaking included in this update, since it’s a bigger focus on balancing the preexisting meta rather than pushing it forward.

These notes are preliminary. According to Riot, “this may not be the full list of notes and is not final. Context and the more complex changes will come with the full patch notes.”

From champion buffs and nerfs to other gameplay changes, here is the full Wild Rift patch 4.3b notes.

What’s changing in Wild Rift patch 4.3b

A whole bunch of buffs

From the looks of the patch preview, it appears there are a myriad of buffs entering the new Wild Rift update. But instead of coming alongside nerfs, this patch seems catered specifically for buffs only. In other words, there are no champion nerfs coming in this patch — at least, none that have been confirmed quite yet.

Glacial Augment nerfed

The keystone rune Glacial Augment is receiving a nerf. It’s seemingly the only nerfed included in Wild Rift patch 4.3b. Of course, this is still only a preview. Therefore, there’s still a chance there will be more nerfs entering the update. But only time will truly tell.
