The League of Legends balance team has undergone significant changes in preparation for preseason 2024. Phroxon has been promoted to lead gameplay designer, while Phreak will now serve as live balance design lead. The community has responded positively to the announcement, with many eager to hear more about Phreak’s journey at Riot Games.
League’s 2024 preseason is set to launch on Nov. 20, bringing a breath of fresh air to the game with numerous changes. While the exact details are still unknown, players have already noticed some potential adjustments on the PBE, including a K’Sante rework and significant changes to starting items, Smite, and the jungle.
According to preliminary changes, players will no longer be able to cast Smite on lane minions or pets, and its damage on champions will be reduced. More information on these changes is expected to be shared in the coming weeks as we approach the preseason’s launch.
