League of Legends Bug: K’Sante Nerfs and Automatic Rune Change
League of Legends is no stranger to bugs, and even with constant updates, some issues persist. One particular bug involving K’Sante has yet to be properly resolved, despite Riot Games’ efforts to fix it. In the latest iteration of the game’s testing phase, K’Sante has been hit with numerous nerfs, including an automatic rune change for players using Hexflash. This change may be a response to an unintended interaction that allows K’Sante to instantly cast his W ability when paired with Hexflash. Despite these nerfs, K’Sante remains a formidable champion, causing frustration for both casual and professional players.
K’Sante Changes:
Multiple players have noticed an unexpected change in the latest League of Legends testing phase. K’Sante’s Hexflash rune has been automatically replaced with Magical Footwear. Additionally, several nerfs have been implemented across K’Sante’s kit. The damage of his ultimate ability has been reduced, the base damage of his Q ability has been lowered, and the cost of his Q ability has been increased. On the other hand, the base shield of his E ability has been slightly increased.
The Hexflash Interaction:
The automatic rune change for K’Sante may be a direct response to an unintended interaction involving Hexflash. When K’Sante charges his W ability and immediately presses Hexflash, the ability is cast instantly. This allows K’Sante to quickly initiate his combo, dealing damage before opponents can react. It also grants him the “unstoppable” status, enabling him to avoid crowd control effects. This interaction has made K’Sante incredibly difficult to counter, as he combines durability, damage, and mobility, despite being designed as a tank.
K’Sante’s Power and Impact:
K’Sante’s strength as a champion is evident in both casual and professional play. Despite a recent hotfix targeting his Q ability, he remains one of the most powerful champions in the game. His high presence rate at the ongoing World Championship showcases his dominance. With his durability, damage output, and mobility, K’Sante poses a significant challenge for players at all levels.
Future Changes and Patch 13.23:
It is uncertain whether Riot Games will implement the automatic rune change alongside the other nerfs in the upcoming Patch 13.23. The company has not confirmed if this change is directly related to the Hexflash exploit. More information about the patch is expected to be revealed in the coming week. Players eagerly await further updates and adjustments to address the ongoing issues with K’Sante.
