The last balancing update of Version 3.2 for League of Legends: Wild Rift is now available. Patch 3.2c buffs certain champions, most notably Katarina and Janna. However, it also nerfs one of Soraka’s abilities.

The Wild Rift dev team saw that Katarina is not performing well compared to other mid-laners. This is why they increased the base damage of her Death Lotus ultimate by 50 across the board in Patch 3.2c. The developers are hoping that this would impact skirmishes and team fights in favor of Katarina, especially newbies who may activate the ultimate without being in the best position to deal maximum damage.

Janna received a couple of notable buffs as well. Howling Gale’s whirlwind projectile now moves slightly faster than before. Her Zephyr ability’s projectile speed is increased too.

While Katarina and Janna are enjoying the buffs, the same cannot be said for Soraka. That’s because Starcall’s rejuvenation effect has been toned down quite a bit, which is even more noticeable at max level. The reason is that the developers feel Soraka’s ability to sustain both herself and her allies is just too strong. Although this is pretty good news for enemy Champions, Soraka mains will surely not like this one at all.

In addition to the balancing changes for Champions, Patch 3.2c also brings two new skins, namely Dawnbringer Riven and Nightbringer Yasuo.
