As it’s not outright a nerf or a buff that is coming her way, many in the community consider it to be a mini-rework that will lean into her identity as a “mobility mage”.
In a recent Twitter post, Riot’s August Browning, champion designer in League of Legends, opened up about some of the crucial aspects of the Ahri changes that fans can expect two weeks from now.
League of Legends patch 12.3 will see massive Ahri updates
One of the biggest highlights of her mini-rework is her passive which is getting changed entirely and will be tied directly to her ultimate, Spirit Fire, which too is receiving massive updates.
From League of Legends patch 12.3 onwards Ahri’s passive will allow her to collect “Essence Fragments” from enemy minions and monsters that will heal her for 40 to 120 HP plus 25 percent of her ability power. She will also get a good chunk of her health back every time she takes down an enemy champion.
Spirit Fire, on the other hand, will feed off of her passive and gain extra charges as well as duration extensions every time Ahri consumes the essence of an enemy champion.
Moreover, the rest of her abilities will also be receiving minor tweaks to go with her new Passive and Ultimate, as Riot Games will be trying to balance her and bring her back to the competitive meta during the season 12 Spring Split.
