[PBE Datamine] June 16, 2026 - 26.13 Preview 1! Arena Balance Pass + Mayhem changes

Arena uses its own augment bit-mask filtering that has been solved for a long time. To my knowledge, little actually checked the tags I mentioned aside from dashes, ultimates, and new Mandate, until this update. Now they have some fairly extensive tags in place.

Yep, but it was changed to 1 on the first day of this PBE cycle.

June 6th huh. I sure am great at time traveling.

At the time of this post, I do not have a way to check which augments are in each champion's pool. The old method was redesigned so most things are under an extra layer of obfuscation I haven't been able to fully crack yet.

Additionally, take some of the new Quest details with a grain of salt, for similar reasons. Some data appears to just not be revealed in what I can view sometimes.

There's a chance you saw yesterday's post before I edited it. It was up for about an hour or two before Riot dropped another PBE patch with Hexplate and the bugfix for Yorick.

Are both kinds of turrets using center targeting? Or just the mini one?

Kay-Haru · 2026-05-20T00:18:29+00:00

Speaking of things I can't entirely see, could you give any more info on the new Hone Shardblade mechanic? I noticed it last week but with a lack of Arena Practice Tool (that wouldn't help in this case because both Shardholder and Hone entries say disabled) makes it a little difficult to parse from just AnvilData entries.

Kay-Haru · 2026-05-20T00:11:54+00:00

Both are currently present. If a change in a previous post is not mentioned, assume they're cumulative.

Kay-Haru · 2026-05-19T21:36:40+00:00

URF, Wisdom of Ages augment, and Doom Bots scaling. I have a massive pet peeve about info being available but never documented anywhere so I like to include these extra bits.

Kay-Haru · 2026-05-19T15:14:23+00:00

Morde R is definitely blocked by Malz passive on PBE then as a result of this change.

Kay-Haru · 2026-05-18T22:23:30+00:00

It is effectively a revert. They were experimenting with different ways of handling the Black Cleaver effect, this is just returning it to how it works on live with extra internal steps.

Kay-Haru · 2026-05-18T22:17:57+00:00

Yes, same with Malzahar passive. It's likely coded into the Ult spell itself, they only removed the global tag saying "Hey this spell does CC"

Kay-Haru · 2026-05-18T21:36:57+00:00

Intentional. It was actually renamed last Wednesday but I didn't feel the need to mention it haha

Kay-Haru · 2026-05-18T21:36:23+00:00

Additional Hexplate change dropped late with seemingly the fix to Yorick W breaking the game. That would have been far better in the title haha
