Like every two weeks, Riot has released all the info about the new update that will arrive on 31st March 2021, being League of Legends Patch 11.7. With many regional leagues now in their Playoffs stage, this patch will continue to bring more changes for the jungle, which has become one of the most important roles in the Competitive.
A new skin theme will also make its debut, bringing its eighties galactic style to the Summoner's Rift.
League of Legends Patch 11.7: Champion changes
Already practically routine on the part of Riot's balance team, the jungle champions have undergone many transformations within the game, with Udyr and Hecarim being the most dominant within the current metagame. For this, both will receive nerfs in their statistics to give them less relevance in the game.
Likewise, bottom lane champs who have had great prominence in the Playoffs like Tristana and Kai’Sa will take nerfs to their base attack damage and Ultimate cooldown, respectively. In addition, the abilities of some engage supports such as Rell's E, Thresh's W, and Alistar's Q and E will also receive changes.

Ashe's W damage and Varus and Yasuo's base AD will be boosted to increase their presence in the game, while Mordekaiser and Lissandra's Q will receive late-game buffs.
Finally, Yorick will receive a mini rework through his mist walkers by changing the way they attack, while tank champions like Amumu and Braum will see improvements in their cooldowns, and Kindred will have some improvements in its abilities to expand its damage potential.
League of Legends Patch 11.7: Items changes
Several items within this patch will receive cost changes, with the Lord Dominik’s Regards increasing in cost by 100 gold, while Essence Reaver and Serylda’s Grudge reducing their cost by 100 and 200 respectively.
However, the first two items mentioned will receive a drop in their AD stat they grant, impacting some champions in the bottom lane. Likewise, Everfrost will receive a decrease in its AP bonus, in addition to increasing its cooldown by ten seconds.

The biggest changes will come from the side of the Trinity Force, receiving a change in its statistics with a rework in its passives, while the Turbo Chemtank will have a total readjustment reducing the movement speed it grants in addition to an increase in its Slow when being in Supercharged state, which will heavily impact Hecarim and Udyr.
League of Legends Patch 11.7: One For All and Clash
One of the community's favourite modes will be back after a long time, with the One For All mode being added to the rotating playlist starting with the arrival of the patch.

In addition, a new Clash tournament will be part of this update, with the Shurima theme coming to the game in good fashion, being the last one before the start of the 2021 Mid-Season Invitational.
League of Legends Patch 11.7: Upcoming Skins
To finish and as we mentioned at the beginning, a new theme of skins will be available in this update with the arrival of Space Groove, bringing psychedelic styles with some disco music, and having very colourful and eighties tones.
As part of this collection, Lulu, Lux, Nasus, Nunu & Willump, Rumble and Samira will receive new skins for 1350 RP, while Blitzcrank will have a new Legendary skin at 1820 RP, and this time, Lulu will be the one who will receive the Prestige skin of this event.
