The League of Legends 25.15 Patch Notes are out. According to Riot’s official schedule, Patch 25.15 is expected to drop on Wednesday, July 30, 2025. Following the conclusion of the Mid-Season Invitational and the Esports World Cup, regional leagues around the world are set to resume—this time on the previous patch, 15.14, which introduced Yunara, although she will still be disabled in some leagues like the LCK.

Patch 15.15 will bring a few buffs—only to Riven and Kled. That’s understandable in Kled’s case, given his minor rework in the previous patch and his slight lack of damage. On the other hand, this patch includes several nerfs, particularly targeting champions who benefited from the previous buffs to Kraken Slayer and Blade of the Ruined King, such as Master Yi and Bel'Veth. Rek'Sai is also receiving a significant number of changes.

"Our last several patches were power positive as a whole, so we are taking a nerf focused patch to combat power creep. Primarily nerfing champions who gained a lot of power from the Blade of the Ruined King & Kraken Slayer Buffs. Also taking a swing at statistical overperformers, speciffically in the tank support area. We also have patchworks in for Illaoi and Rek'Sai, details in their specific areas.

Kled

Last patch saw about 0.8% win rate lost and he can't remount as well as we'd like, especially in team fights

Riven

Last patch overshot our expectations, so we're walking back part of last patch's nerf

Alistar
Overall statistically overpowered and the #1 pro support right now, so Alistar is a pretty much slam-dunk nerf

Bel'Veth
Gained significantly off of the Kraken Slayer + BotRK changes so we’re making some power-negative changes aimed at weakening her early bully power and giving a little bit of late-game scaling back

Braum
Like Alistar, Braum is statistically quite overpowered and last patch’s nerfs heavily undershot out expectations, so we’re back for more

Irelia
Like Bel’Veth, Irelia gained a lot from recent item buffs. We’re looking to nerf her ideally solo queue-skewed, since sporadic pro play is cool

Master Yi
Another big winner from Kraken/BotRK, so we’re nerfing Master Yi, who was balanced before that. There’s some compensation for crit builds.

Nilah
Currently the highest win rate bot laner, so we’re looking to take some power out. We’re taking out some scaling and buffing her early a bit.

Pantheon
We would have nerfed him last patch, but the change we wanted needed localization. This is a jungle-focused nerf.

Quinn
Has also crept up in win rate and is currently #1 in top lane. We’re looking to weaken early-mid wave clear power while preserving attack damage.

Rell
Right up there with Alistar and Braum as an overperforming tank support in all levels of play, so we’re peeling out some power.

Corki
Corki is balanced and is the easy to play strong laner we wanted but we want to make him a little less sharp while still preserving that curve

Illaoi
Looking to reduce frustration by reducing the duration of the Vessel debuff. We’re looking to overcompensate with power and usability buffs.

Rek’Sai
Returning true damage to Rek’Sai E and reshaping the R to be less of an assassin tool, more generally reliable. Intended to be overall more powerful

Baron Nashor
Removing Baron's in-combat HP regen. Fewer missed Smites that aren't your fault!

Riven*

We've pulled out the planned Riven partial-revert to ensure we have a clean read on the Q3 bug fix, will follow up next patch if needed"
