League of Legends patch 8.17 change list

This one has a lot of skins

By Julia Lee
Riot Games

Patch 8.17 is here and there ... aren’t too many changes in this one, outside of the Nunu & Willump rework. Even still, let’s jump in.

Yes, Nunu & Willump are here! The adorable duo will be causing ruckus in your games soon enough. Their new kit keeps some old favorites like Consume and Absolute Zero, while introducing some neat new mechanics, like rolling a giant snowball into your enemies. All of their skins have also gotten a makeover, with Grungy Nunu becoming a completely different skin concept.

Five new skins are also releasing this patch. We’re getting three High Noon skins for Urgot, Thresh and Lucian, with Lucian’s being Legendary. We’re also getting two new Immortal Journey skins for Irelia and Talon, if that’s more of your cup of tea.

There’s also a speckle of actual buffs to champions as well as changes to Stormrazor and Duskblade of Draktharr, but nothing too huge.

As usual, you can read Riot’s full notes here and our tl;dr here.
