| Gwen's basic attacks deal bonus magic damage on hit based on her percentage of health. Basic attacks against champions heal him for a fraction of the damage dealt. | Gwen quickly uses her shears two to six times, dealing magic damage to a cone-shaped area. She uses her scissors at least twice and deals one additional scissor strike per basic attack she hits the opponent (up to four more for a total of six hits). Enemies at the center of each scissor strike take bonus magic damage from Thousand Slash in addition to true damage. | Gwen surrounds herself in Holy Mist for five seconds, gaining armor and magic resist while inside it. Enemies outside of the mist cannot target Gwen and cannot hit her with abilities. The fog follows Gwen the first time she tries to leave the area, but disappears the next time. | Gwen dashes a short distance and amplifies her attacks for four seconds, gaining range, speed, and magic damage on hit. Meanwhile, attacking an enemy refunds 50% of the ability's cooldown. | Gwen can cast Loop Loop up to three times, but must hit an enemy within 8 seconds before she can unlock each consecutive cast. Each cast fires stings that travel in a line, dealing magic damage, slowing enemies, and dealing bonus magic damage from Gwen's Thousand Slash. The first use throws one needle, the second use three needles, and the last use five needles. Each of the nine pins hitting the opponents applies the effect of Thousand Cuts once (ie, nine times in total). |
According to the data collected and obtained from various statistics sites, the champions with the highest professional level winning rate this season are listed. Among the champions to be weakened, which we have mentioned in this article, there are three most preferred champions. These are Orianna , Thresh and Gnar . It has been observed that champions can create a snowball effect in the hands of professional players, which is quite effective and can bring victory. Although
Thresh is not preferred much in the support area compared to other champion options, his win rate is quite high. This is thought to be due to its frequent prohibition. Likewise, Gnar in the top lane areaPlayers who made the choice are among the champions with a high win rate of 85%, with 85 wins out of 100 matches. It is also known to be frequently banned in professional level matches. In mid laner, Orianna is among the first choices of many professional mid laners and has a high win rate. In addition, his ability to provide extra support to his team in team battles and the potential to start a war brings him to the top of the list.
It is already a matter of curiosity to see what kind of effects the debuffs to be made on these champions will have on the meta of the game. As we mentioned before, these changes are scheduled to be brought to the main servers on April 14.
