League of Legends 14.14 will be updated tonight, and Riot designers can't wait to announce the changes to version 14.15. Judging from the time, this is likely to become the summer playoff version.

There are many changes in 14.15, including adjustments to single-player warriors and assassins such as Yasuo, Yongen, Zed, Akali, and Irelia. But the most noteworthy change is the weakening of the entire series of shoes. As the most cost-effective equipment in the League of Legends game (no one else), they can't escape this knife this time.

From equipment attributes to prices, the second-level shoes have been slashed in all aspects. Among them, the three shoes with the highest appearance rate, Iron Plate Boots, Mercury Boots, and Bright Boots, have also been adjusted the most. What's funny is that when the price of magic resistance cloak drops, the price of Mercury Boots has increased. As the exclusive mage boots, the magic penetration effect has also been weakened on the original basis.

The fact that shoes are the most cost-effective equipment in League of Legends is not a gimmick, because at the same price, you can't find any equipment that can provide better effects than them.

A pair of 1,000-yuan iron boots can greatly reduce the damage when you are laning against an AD hero; a pair of 1,100-yuan Berserker Greaves can help ADC or heroes like Yongen and Yasuo who rely on attack speed to be more comfortable in the line. Not to mention that in the early stage, AP heroes without magic penetration shoes will basically deal real damage to people; you can buy Mercury Boots at home to make the opponent's jungler lose the desire to gank.

Of course, this change is the most friendly to Snake Girl. This is the only hero in the League of Legends game who cannot buy shoes. She is happy to see others slow down their pace of buying shoes because of the price increase of shoes. It is worth mentioning that the designer of version 14.15 reduced her mana consumption. Maybe in the subsequent versions, everyone will see Snake Girl's appearance.

Today, the primary reference for League of Legends version adjustments and changes is the performance of heroes and equipment in professional competitions. Most of the time, the designer's adjustment direction is to weaken a hero or equipment that performs too well to a normal level.

Previously, the chief designer of League of Legends complained that TP was too prominent in high-end games and professional competitions, and a new weakening plan will be launched in the future. For example, TP will be put on CD a few minutes before the game starts, so that players cannot use it too early. In version 14.15, the designer seems to want to create a version that emphasizes laning and early collisions.

So what do you think will be the consequences of weakening the entire series of level 2 shoes?
