League of Legends Champion Zyra Hotfix Nerfs Implemented

August 7, 2012 by Lana Polansky

Nerf hotfix for LoL champion goes into effect today in North America.

Riot Games' award-winning MOBA League of Legends contains a considerable roster of  "champion" avatars. As such, balancing each character can be a tad tricky and something of a work in progress.

Zyra, a champion who had previously been considered underpowered in the Public Beta Environment, had then been buffed to be a little more competent before coming out. Well, maybe more than a little. The character had been made to be so good that she had the ability to stay out of attack range while dumping all of her spells, not to mention being able to land a very high-damage "AOE ult,"  among other things.

In light of this, Associate Game Designer CertainlyT posted a detailed message about 21 hours ago on the official League of Legends forums describing the ways in which Zyra's power will be tempered, including possible future changes. The specific stats changes are all viewable here, but what's important to know is that without weakening her too much, the hotfix is meant to undo her ability to remain in safe range while doling out such considerable damage.

The post says that the hotfix should be "deployed […] as soon as this evening in North America."
