Rell gets a solid set of nerfs in League of Legends patch 11.3 to make the Iron Maiden less burdened. However, they can have an effect, where the full AP Rell takes over the meta.
Rell was quite an interesting addition to the League of Legends list. The first champion in preseason 11 struggled to find his way into the meta at first, but exploded in recent posters as a power take.
Now Riot is strengthening her back. Her utility is just a little too strong to justify some of her damage values - at least in her base set.

Rell gets some nerves in League patch 11.3.
The current changes to the League of Legends PBE include nerves to her W shield, while increasing the damage ratio. Her E gets nerve everywhere – damage and resistance. Her R, on the other hand, gets an AP ratio buff.
The changes led to a mixed reaction from the community. While Rell mainline feels that Riot is trying to streamline her to just a maximum Q, Riot is trying to bring the rest of her outfit just more in line with her Q, rather than increase her already high profit rate.
‘The purpose of the change list is to annoy her very slightly, and also move her back slightly to Qmax to be correct by weakening the durability gained with each W point. “The AP ratios are mostly just extra and are not much power at all, except when it comes to Shurelyas,” Ray Yonggi said.
“It’s not because we want them to specifically do more damage, it’s because we want all 4 abilities to feel like they’re pulling their weight, and that Q unfortunately does not feel that way when it’s not maximum. “
The increase in AP ratios – including an extra 40% AP on her ultimate – leaves players exhausting the potential of full AP Rell. With 110% AP on her ultimate, as well as 60% AP on her Q, she can deceive enemies with a full AP buildup.

Riot still tampers with the lovers, but tries to make sure Rell stays true to her tank identity with – only with a little less power right off the bat.
‘Basic idea around the Q thing was that Q feels really nasty when it’s not maximum, but W feels effective no matter what, so the character can feel more spicy when Q was max what people did more because it increases the damage and healing per point, ”Yonggi added.
The Rell changes are expected to go through with League patch 11.3, written for February 3rd.
