There are a few things that are always constant. Death, taxes and League of Legends patches every two weeks. Riot Games continues to keep this game fresh with these patches and always has us thinking ahead. As a reminder, the patch notes will normally come out on Tuesdays and then go live the next day, Wednesday. This week because of the US Holiday, the notes are out Wednesday with the patch going live Thursday. With that, here are the notes for Patch 10.11. Here is the full update but if one is looking for the most notable things, then check out the TGH notes below.

Massive Marksman Buff
Riot has been hearing the cries of ADC mains and have decided to buff pretty much ever one of their durability. This is more specifically targeting the early planning phase. They are also increasing mobility through their items. There are some “marksman” who are being left out for various reasons but mostly because they are rarely played in the bot lane.

New Honor Level 5 Chromas and Rainbow Flutfs
“As a reminder to all those who purchased a Fluft icon this year, Rainbow Poro (and his new friends) will continue to bring color to the Rift and Abyss until June 30. Equip any of the seven icons to change your profile background and to run around in-game with a colorful Homeguard trail.”
“We’re debuting this year’s additions to the chroma lineups for Grey Warwick and Medieval Twitch! When you hit Honor 5 this season, your Honor Capsule will contain a token you can redeem for one of these new chromas if you already own the base skin.”
