Patch 26.18 RiftMind spotlight

  1. Master Yi Jungle - Champion Spotlight - Master Yi Jungle: Master Yi stands out as one of the clearest winners of patch 26.18. After gaining more armor per level, extra Highlander movement speed, and a small Rageblade quality-of-life buff, both his win rate and popularity are climbing across low and high Elo. The changes give him more durable scaling and stronger chase potential, though Wukong and Rammus remain difficult jungle matchups.
