League of Legends is MOBA game that has been around since of October 2009. The game is still alive and full of players as its popularity remains the same (though the Arcane animated series brought its popularity up, but now it’s back to what it was before).
While the game just received its patch 12.19, news of patch 12.20 has now hit the internet. League of Legends players are either to know more about it. Did someone get nerfed? Did someone get buffed?
