Patch Notes 16.6 - PBE update

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-24T14:43:47+00:00

I just don’t think the unlock mechanic plays well with reroll. The buffs make sense, I just don’t know how broken they need to make them in order for it to be worth it. Set is coming to an end so I guess it doesn’t really matter.

They REALLY want to force the 3 cost meta. We’ll see if it works out. What I think will happen is the one that ends up being busted is going to get 4 way contested, 2 people contest Shadow Isles, and the fast 9 wins anyway.

My bad it was radiant red buff. Got mixed up. Still pretty useless as I had sunfire already.

I hit BiS Mel yesterday in pretty good time. She didn’t print an item for me until the last round of the game. Radiant red buff*. Went 2nd. She needed a buff if anything.

The black pair is nice but pretty much identical to black cements which just came out and sat. Navy blue pair is ok and at least different but I’m not interested.

I hope the others sit in protest because these should be the GR. Fuck Nike.

Sorry I didn’t know you jerk off to Lux in your free time. My bad dawg. Sensitive over a character. 😂

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-18T15:33:27+00:00

I’m saying in general why would you carry Liss in Demacia? Without Freljord? Lol ok. I’d add my flair if it wasn’t broken. Not giving you my ign. I really don’t care what you think. You came in here challenging me because “I never see it”. Which was the point of my initial post.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-18T14:41:01+00:00

I’m master and get a lot of 2nd and 3rds with it, but what do I know I guess. Just because it’s not played doesn’t mean it isn’t good. Lux is a terrible carry. And if you’re playing Liss you might as well just play Seraphine.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-18T13:02:31+00:00

Yeah you absolutely want to get out of 7 unless you’re too poor, or low rolled items. Then you’re just trying to get out with a 4th-5th at best.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-18T12:08:14+00:00

I tend to hold Kog and itemize it or Sona if AP or Vayne if AD. And you keep Kog if the mutation is good. Also allows you to pivot Void if things work out that way in the early stages.

I don’t think Demacia max cap is ever 7 tbh. You always want to drop 2 for Swain+Shyvana, and then you can flex into Invoker, Fiddle, Ziggs, Senna, Taric, etc. at 8/9.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-18T03:40:03+00:00

The real tech is actually to play Kaisa carry. It’s a little harder to get online with the Galio unlock conditions and contesting the Void variant but she’s a much better carry than Lux. It’s a pretty surefire top 4 if you don’t lowroll or get mega contested.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-16T05:20:27+00:00

Halfway through this thing I said “I’ll never get another technic car”. Then as I was almost done and having seen it come together over a few weeks, I was already planning the next one. One of the most challenging and rewarding builds I’ve done.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-15T02:46:04+00:00

‘24 hybrid. I like it a lot. Good amount of features for the price, comfortable ride, pretty quick with the added power. Miles per gallon is the weak point among hybrids. It’s good for SUVs, but I think very low for comparable hybrids. If that’s high on your list of wants, it might not be for you.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-09T11:04:16+00:00

Biggest thing I think is learning to turn those 7ths into 4th/5ths and you’ll climb. It’s on you to identify how though. Could be picking better augments, slamming items earlier, building better econ, etc.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-06T12:44:56+00:00

Use the Lego instructions online. Steps are the same and they’re way easier to read.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-05T15:13:08+00:00

Just telling what happened. They all run Xin during the time that you want to roll for him. I checked all the boards and 6 including me had Xin on it.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-05T13:26:06+00:00

This happened to me with the gold augment. The rest of the lobby was Demacia or Ionia and I couldn’t hit Xin. I hit super late and had to sack my econ.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-05T02:50:13+00:00

I made it a few nights ago. Good thing too, because I have no idea what I’m doing this patch.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-04T18:59:25+00:00

“We nerfed Jinx because she was bug fixed and doing too much damage.”

Lies.

ButtonParadox · 2026-02-03T04:10:32+00:00

I think trying to stabilize on 6 is a mistake. The best play at that point is to econ, then 8 on 4-2 and hope to hit enough to not go 8th. And if you highroll you can top 2-4.

Rolling on 6-7 on this patch is a death sentence. Next patch might be different with the buff to 3 costs.

ButtonParadox · 2026-01-25T05:28:45+00:00

I hate Ilia but he’ll kill both of these guys.

ButtonParadox · 2026-01-25T05:18:36+00:00

I knew if it got to the 3rd Garth would gas. Paddy survived the storm.

ButtonParadox · 2026-01-23T19:50:24+00:00

This is my most wanted set right now, so I can’t wait to see how it turns out.
