League of Legends patch 25.13 notes: Fiddlesticks, Vi, Ryze, and more get power changes ahead of MSI 2025
The League of Legends patch 25.13 is almost here, and with it comes a set of changes aimed at keeping the game balanced for both solo queue and pro play. The developer of the title, Riot Games, has only made a few adjustments this time, which makes sense since the current meta is already stable. These changes will be applied before the Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) 2025 begins.
Game designer Matt Leung-Harrison, known as RiotPhroxzon, revealed the patch preview on X (formerly Twitter) on June 17, 2025. He shared the full list of champions getting buffs and nerfs in patch 25.13.
Patch 25.13 Preview!This is the MSI patch! Pretty short list, we're mostly happy with where the meta is at, given that a bunch of champions are pretty ceilinged on SoloQ power and we're seeing a pretty good amount of diversity. Mundo- Mundo has picked up a ton of… pic.twitter.com/fbDfqbFpXV
Champion buffs in League of Legends patch 25.13
Only a handful of champions are getting buffed in this patch. Each one is being looked at for different reasons—some to make them more viable in pro play, others to bring them back into solo queue rotations.
Fiddlesticks – Expected to get more power in jungle clear or teamfights
Gangplank – Buffed to help him deal better with current top lane threats like Jax
Irelia – Possibly smoother scaling or stronger all-ins
Kindred – More help in jungle matchups or early pressure
Nidalee – She's currently underperforming, so jungle buffs are coming
Rammus – Likely receiving better durability or utility boosts
Champion nerfs in League of Legends Patch 25.13
A few champions are performing too well, either in pro games or high-elo solo queue, and will be toned down in this patch.
Ryze – He's been very strong, especially after others around him were nerfed
Twisted Fate – Has become too powerful with recent item builds like Luden's and Rocketbelt
Vi – Strong ganks and reliability have made her too consistent
Yorick – Likely nerfed due to solo lane dominance
RiotPhroxzon commented on Ryze, saying, "Ryze is looking a bit too unassailable on current tuning, especially after we nerfed a lot of his competition in 25.12. We're not looking for a major nerf here, just a small tap down."
What to expect at MSI 2025?
Since patch 25.13 will be used during MSI 2025, the goal is to make sure no champion completely dominates. That's why we're seeing light touches rather than a full meta shake-up. Twisted Fate is one example. After his patch 25.12 buffs, he's been dominating the solo queue with burst-heavy items. These nerfs should bring him back in line.
Expect more details soon when the full patch notes drop. For now, these are the early updates for LoL patch 25.13.

Joseph Kosinski directs the hell out of this thing with some of the most impressive racing scenes I've ever seen on the big screen. I had my doubts about this one, but F1 is definitely a winner.'
