Riot is reclaiming the bottom lane! Patch 26.16 targets the oppressive mage meta with massive buffs for traditional ADCs. Expect increased base magic resistance, boosted Berserker’s Greaves, and refined damage scaling to help marksmen survive early-game poke.

- Mage dominance ending.
- Marksman utility restored.
- Early-game trading power leveled up.

Prepare for a massive shift in your next ranked climb!
