Patch 26.15 - ARAM Mayhem 26.15 - Systemic Champion Modifiers and Augment Tuning
Stay up to date with the latest League of Legends ARAM: Mayhem changes, including champion balance updates, augment modifications, and gameplay adjustments for each patch.
Highlights
- Champion damage-dealt modifiers now apply to ability, attack, item, and Augment damage, letting Riot remove many one-off modifiers while balancing each champion's total output more consistently.
- Most underperforming Augments received stronger combat payoffs, Critical Missile was toned down for crit marksmen, and 21 Mayhem bugs were fixed across Ability Augments, quests, shops, VFX, and offer eligibility.
General Changes
Champion Modifier System
Damage-dealt modifiers now affect every major champion damage source: abilities, basic attacks, items, and Augments. This makes the global modifier a more accurate lever for total champion performance.
Champion Balance Cleanup
Riot removed many healing, shielding, damage-taken, damage-dealt, Ability Haste, and minion-damage exceptions, while retaining smaller targeted adjustments for champions that still need them.
Augment Tuning and Bugfixes
Ten Augments were buffed or gained new interactions, Critical Missile lost damage, and the bugfix pass corrected 21 cases involving Augment triggers, quests, shops, targeting, VFX, and invalid offers.
