A bit late, but it's better later than never.

"Greetings, Summoners

Welcome to patch 6.1, the fresh one with that new season smell. It's been a long winter for us here at Riot Games, but we're back and ready to get to our outlier-balancing ways.

Looking at you, Frost Queen's Claim.

Speaking of balancing outliers, that's primarily what this patch for - with the professional leagues - and some of our bigger projects - ramping up, the last month of 5.24 play has provided us with a ton of data to analyze. For now, however, it's clear a few things are out of line (or under the line, as the case may be). We've got buffs to the underachievers like Kha'Zix and Fiddlesticks, and power reductions to our bigger bullies (like Trundle and Miss Fortune), as well as an assortment of ups and downs in-between.

But it's the first patch of the new year, and we'd be lying if we said our normal serving of balance updates were all we had in store. The new ranked season is beginning, giving tryhard veterans and bushy-tailed beginners alike the opportunity to start afresh. As our 2016 gift to you, we've also got a New Champion Select (title capitals here), designed to provide a revamped and re-designed draft experience - no matter what mode you play. Once it ships, we'll be retiring Team Builder; so long, and thanks for all the victories!

And that's it for us! It's been a while, but we hope you join us in ushering in the new year and making this season the best one yet. New rewards, new challenges, and new champions await - and we'll be right there with you for the ride. (And remember, if you see Pwyff in your ranked games - go easy on him. He could use the help.)

Good luck, and have fun."
