Patch 17.9

Patch 17.9: Final Space Gods patch before Enchanted Wilds arrives Aug 26.

• Enchanted Wilds Arrives August 26thSet 18 Enchanted Wilds goes live at the end of patch 17.9 on August 26th. Space Gods remains playable for a limited period after launch.
• Zed Joins the Base RosterZed is no longer Augment-exclusive — he's added to the standard champion pool but receives a notable HP nerf and the Invader Zed Augment is removed.
• Twisted Fate High-Roll ReworkTF now always gives gold on a 9 roll, but rolling a 1 deals 15% max HP true damage to himself. Max damage skyrockets while minimum damage craters — true gambling.
• Meepsie Rework: Big Bang Goes BaseMeepsie adopts her Champion Augment's Big Bang as her base spell, shifting from Magic Tank to Magic Fighter with lower mana and reworked stats.
• Rhaast Becomes a Real AD BruiserRhaast's spell damage explodes (120/180/300 ⇒ 400/600/1000 AD) and duration halves to 1s — pairs well with items like Sterak's Gage.
• Shepherd Rework: More Casts, More ScalingShepherd gets lower mana cost, stronger late-tier damage (up to 400 AP tail sweep and 300 AP wave at tier 7), but shorter shield duration and less AP per cast.
