League of Legends 12.4 Patch Notes REVEALED

League of Legends' fourth update of the year, LoL 12.4, is on the way and not only does it come with its normal bells and whistles of champion tuning and balancing, but it's bringing forth the game's next new Champion, Renata Glasc, and plenty more.

With that being said, here's everything you need to know about the LoL 12.4 update and its newly revealed patch notes.

UPDATED - LoL 12.4 addresses new Janna playstyle

Coinciding with all the glitz and glamour that a new patch brings, 12.4 is also taking aim at the newest Janna playstyle that came up after her mini-rework back in patch 12.2.

This playstyle involved Janna picking Smite in the top lane and being an absolute menace in the Summoner's Rift, roaming around, setting up plays, and securing objectives.

But now this new patch will look to bring down this new playstyle a notch.
