… That's about the extent of our pirate references for patch 5.14. We actually negotiated for a pirate-themed foreword because even though Bilgewater isn't really about pirates, we thought there was more creative space than saying ahoy and mateys.
Alas.
With patch 5.14 comes some follow-up work on Runeglaive, along with a bloodthirsty new support item in the form of Zeke's Harbinger (who has also punted Zeke's Herald out of the game, read the context for more information on that). Hopefully with our changes, both items will solidify their identities within the game and we'll begin to see some real choice and diversity as a result of their use. We've also got our usual array of balance tweaks to certain oppressive champions (Ryze, Azir) and some of the more sadder ones (Elise, Tahm Kench).
Oh, and there's an event.
… Swab the poop deck!
P.S. This patch is going to be a bit larger than most, as we've got a lot of stuff in here. You've been warned!"
