With sweeping changes introduced in Season 14’s first patch, it’s no surprise that Riot Games is keeping a close eye on the game’s state and working quickly to smooth out any rough edges. In just a few days after launch, a hotfix patch, 14.1b, is already slated to hit the servers soon.
Game designer Matt “Phroxzon” Leung-Harrison reports the dev team is pleased with how the patch landed. No critical bugs have emerged, and champion balance remains stable. Ahead of patch 14.2, the 14.1b hotfix patch will focus on addressing the most glaring outliers, including champion adjustments and tweaks to items and systems.
