Legends of Runeterra has some worryingly powerful champion combos, so every Legends of Runeterra update is super important in balancing these, and keeping the game as fair as possible for everyone playing.
Whether it’s balancing those pesky Noxian aggro decks, tinkering around with Braum, or a new game mode, like Labs and Gauntlet, each Legends of Runeterra update keeps the game alive-and-kicking, giving you new ways to annihilate each other in style, while also having a bit of fun.
