Riot Games introduces the 2023 preseason patch 12.22 with plenty of changes afoot

The 2023 preseason patch is here!

With the professional scene now in its off-season and the transfer window soon approaching, Riot Games has finally introduced the 2023 preseason patch 12.22. Much like the other preseason patch notes, Riot will be bringing back the likes of the chemtech drake, revamping outdated items, as well as introducing new changes to the jungle.

Only four champions would get some patch changes with the likes of Cho'Gath, Lillia, Nunu, and Rakan getting selected. The top lane also gets a rework for its gold and experience gained. There will also be new communication tools added to the game, now with an expanded wheel for various situations.

It's an extensive update, to say the least with Riot addressing plenty of issues that have been plaguing the player base. This includes players that intentionally go AFK, whether it be standing still in the fountain or even if a player is detected to have just abandoned the game completely.

Here is everything you need to know about the 2023 preseason patch:

Preseason Changes

The Return of the Chemtech Drake

• Chemtech Drake: When the Chemtech Drake is below half health it gains 33% damage resistance and deals 50% more damage. This drake will deal 100% total AD + 4% of its target’s health as physical damage with each attack.
• Chemtech Buff: When your team kills a Chemtech Drake they will gain a stacking buff that grants 5% Tenacity and 5% Healing and Shielding power.
• Chemtech Soul: Upon receiving the Chemtech Soul, players will receive a buff that gives them 10% damage resistance and 10% more damage while below 50% health.

Chemtech Rift

Allies tagged will also gain movement speed towards that direction for a short duration, and enemy wards revealed will be taken to 1 health.

Jungle Changes

• Companions will deal 20(+4% bonus HP)(+15% AP)(+10% AD) and will attack at a rate of 1 attack per second. After their owner has stopped attacking, they will attack two more times and then stop.

• Protection Buff: Take 30% reduced damage from monsters while at least 2 allies are within 1300 units

Scorchclaw

• Scorchclaw’s Slash: Scorchclaw will accumulate Ember stacks at a rate of 3 stacks per 0.5 seconds or 100 stacks upon killing a large monster. At 100 Ember stacks, your next instance of damage against an enemy champion will slow all enemies in a 250-unit radius by 30% (decaying over 2 seconds) and deal burn damage equal to 5% of the target's maximum health in true damage over 4 seconds to the primary target.

Leashing Range Updates & Indicators

• (NEW) Soft Resets: After losing all patience, instead of fully resetting, the monster will ‘soft reset’ for 6 seconds. While soft resetting, the monster will path towards its camp centre, regenerate 6% of its max health per second, and will ignore attackers outside of its leash range. Attacking a monster while the attacker is within its leash range will end the soft reset and restore some patience. After these 6 seconds have passed without the monster being attacked, the monster will ‘hard reset’ and ignore all attackers, rapidly heal, and return to its original position.
• (NEW) Soft vs Hard Reset Speed: Monsters will move more slowly while soft resetting, and faster once they hard reset
• (NEW) Patience is Key: Monsters will not lose patience for 1.5 seconds after being attacked by a champion within the leash radius
• (NEW) Patience Regeneration: Camps will now begin to regenerate lost patience after 2 seconds of being back within their leash range

New Communication Tools

Vision Wheel

• (from left to right) Vision Cleared, Enemy Vision, Need Vision
• Extra Feature: The Need Vision ping will leave a small persistent indicator for a minute, or until a ward is placed nearby. You may only have one of these indicators active at any given time. Pinging again will replace your previous one.

Other Pings

• Returning Pings: Caution

Vision System Updates

Allied Ward Tracking

While there are currently ways to see how many wards you have out on the map, there isn’t a quick way to check which wards are closest to expiring. We’re introducing new ward visuals on the minimap that will indicate when wards are close to expiring. Allied ward minimap icons will now change appearance when they reach a third of their remaining duration. 

Enemy Ward Trackers

It can be hard to keep track of every single ward that gets placed on the map and even harder to successfully communicate that information to your teammates. Now, if you use a vision ping near an enemy ward that you've seen within the last 10 seconds—or just attack it—a perfectly accurate ward timer that is always visible to all teammates will appear until the ward is removed or expires.

Top Lane-Oriented Updates

Lane gold and experience changes

• Mid Lane Gold Changes: All minions spawned in the mid lane will now be worth 1 less gold before 14 minutes when last hit (previously, only cannon minions were worth less gold, but were worth 10 less gold)

Competitive

AFK Surrender Time Update

Currently, if a player is AFK after the time the remake window passes, you need to wait until 10 minutes before your team is allowed to call for a unanimous early surrender. In line with our previous updates to the remake system, we want to give teams the agency to end the game when competitive integrity has been impacted. 

• No More Dead Zone: Teams have the option to call a unanimous early surrender vote if an AFK player is detected on their team between 10:00 and 15:00 ⇒ 3:30 and 15:00

Champ Select Anonymity

As we discussed in this article, we think the best version of League is not one where you metagame based on the players in your lobby. We also want to avoid using someone else’s win or loss streak/playing a different champion to force a dodge (or pressure others to dodge) when your setup doesn’t meet the perfect conditions. 

• Allies are Friends: In Ranked Solo/Duo champion select, all summoner names that aren’t yours or your duo partner’s will be replaced by Ally 1 through 5.

Game Remake Updates

Whether someone is or isn’t connected to the game or pressing buttons on their mouse and keyboard, if they’re doing nothing but standing in the fountain then they aren’t playing the game. At the end of the day, this is what we want to protect against with the remake system. 

• Fountain Check: Before 3 minutes, if a player is in the fountain for 90 continuous seconds, their team is able to initiate a remake. At 45 seconds, a player will receive a chat message telling them they need to leave the fountain. At 70 seconds, they will receive a pop-up message telling them they need to leave the fountain.
