consideration

This time, as befits the final patch, it is a massive buffing fest, with adjustments aimed at making ” all configurations shine “.
As a result, even previously overshadowed configurations and units have been greatly enhanced, allowing players to enjoy playing with a variety of tactics until the very end.

Of particular note is the addition of the cypher (6) and its crest.
Cash outs of 800+, which were previously very difficult to achieve, are now a realistic option in this patch.
The “high risk, high reward” thrill of the game is now more feasible, and the game’s entertainment and exhilaration have been greatly improved.

While the meta-configurations as of patch 14.7 are still viable, it is quite possible that with this enhancement, configurations such as Nitro, Street Demon (Reroll), and Chug Bug (Gragas Carry) will rise to the top of the environment.
In particular, Chug Bug has been greatly enhanced in both damage and recovery, and its practicality as a composition has been greatly improved.

All in all, 14.8 is a ” festive patch to end the year” that takes into account both competitive and casual players, and the adjustments made will make the last few days of the year fully enjoyable.
