The League of Legends Patch 10.15 just released on July 22 where we saw several buffs and nerfs and the introduction of Lilia, the new jungler. As the Spirit Blossom event continues, we can expect the next patch, League of Legends Patch 10.16 to release on Aug. 5.


Here are five things we want in the League of Legends Patch 10.16.

5 Things We Want in League of Legends Patch 10.16

5 - Return of Lesser Played Champs

Skarner, a champ that disappeared from champ select for a little bit, received a buff this past patch. With a powered up Q ability, Skarner may begin to see more playing time. Perhaps champs like Shyvanna or Aurelion Sol return to the rift with slight changes.

4 - Nerfs to Overpowered Mid Laners

Champs like Zed and Vladimir have dominated the mid lane as of late and in this coming patch or perhaps future patches, we may seem champs like Vladimir or even Fizz get hit by nerfs to balance out the mid lane cause they are certainly a pain to play against.

3 - Promise of New Skins

The Spirit Blossom event has blessed players with new colorful skins for some of their favorite champs and with League of Legends Patch 10.16 introducing Spirit Blossom Cassiopeia, Ahri, Riven, and Kindred, hopefully, we continue to get new skins for more champs.

2 - A Successful Yone Introduction

Yone will make his first appearance on the rift on Aug. 5. Due to his importance for the franchise, Yone being the 150th champion, and his importance to the lore, we hope that the dual-bladed swordsman is well received by the global community.

1 - Lilia Success

Being one of the newest champs in the game, Lilia still has some time before getting any in-game changes. Her abilities and style of play is similar to Hecarim and she has decent crowd control so it would be nice to see Lilia become a solid jungle pick in the current meta.
