Patch 3.10.0 Card Update Preview – Releasing on June 28, 2022

Legends of Runeterra has teased the list of cards affected by the balance changes with Patch 3.10.0 on Twitter, with full details to be released on June 28, 2022. Steve Rubin has already highlighted what’s to come so far:

• Over 40 individual cards to be rebalanced, and nerfs to meta decks
• System changes – copies counting as played and generatable keywords (see this Riot support page for information)
• More buffs to Landmark removal
• Disintegrate has received a lot of controversy on its wording and how it works – so it is getting a “functional adjustment”

There are more buffs to cards than nerfs, however, with quality of life updates for some underplayed champions! Cards affected are as follows:

Buffs

• Kalista
• Hecarim
• Irelia
• Shen
• Yordle Contraption
• Trifarian Assessor

As we wait for the patch in the meantime, Raphterra has also made predictions on what cards could be affected according to the current metagame, which turned out quite accurate.
