Every buff, nerf and fix from the latest official patch notes for World of Warcraft: Forever (beta), Counter-Strike 2, League of Legends, VALORANT, Deadlock and WARDOGS (early access), structured, color-coded and linked to the source.
The second World of Warcraft: Forever beta build raises the level cap to 30 and adds the new Excavation Site: Wetlands dungeon, with Razorfen Downs and Uldaman now open too. Fury Warriors get a large talent rework, Druid forms become immune to Disarm, and dungeon quests give 50% less bonus experience after feedback on leveling speed.
This is a small maintenance update with no gameplay balance changes. Pet photobook pages get localized text art, the play menu gains buttons to manage downloaded Workshop maps, and the VK shader cache extension flags are adjusted.
Valve releases Baba, a new hero based on New York's notorious pigeon lady, who fights with her Threadsap yarn, a bench that comes to life, Baba's Brews and The Birds. The first Ranked season now ends on Thursday, November 5, 2026, at 2 p.m. PDT, and the next season starts right after.
This is the patch Worlds is played on. Riot tones down pro staples Ambessa, Ashe, Cassiopeia, K'Sante and Yunara, buffs weaker picks like Kennen, Kindred, Lillia, Swain and Smolder, and cuts Hextech Rocketbelt's ability haste from 20 to 10 while raising its active damage. Replays become private, and League Classic adds Aatrox, Caitlyn, Irelia, Karma, and Quinn and Valor.

Valve tunes Rat King: Scrap Grenade damage and the Rat Swarm cooldown are buffed, but Rule, Ratannia! is cut hard, with its cooldown rising from 130 to 160, damage reduction falling from 20% to 15%, a smaller radius, a shorter charge and mostly weaker upgrades. Sinclair takes across-the-board nerfs to HP regen, gun damage and falloff, Vexing Bolt against objectives, Rabbit Hex and Audience Participation, and a bug that slowed lane troopers is fixed.
This is a miscellaneous update with no weapon balance changes. Agents now wear your equipped gloves in photobooth sessions and the buy menu, Warehouse gets improved lighting, and grenade crosshairs render correctly at a 3-pixel thickness.
This WARDOGS hotfix disables IR Rangefinders in the vendor until Season 02, when they will need batteries, because BULKHEAD agrees with players that they are too overpowered. It also makes the CIWS destroy the Havoc in about 6 seconds instead of 12, after the previous patch overcorrected it.

WARDOGS update 0.1.2 is a minor Early Access patch that closes several cash and XP exploits and fixes the WD-L020 crash caused by a recent Windows 11 update. It adds a new DEPLOY flow to the server browser to point players to Infantry Mode and Low-Level servers, and BULKHEAD warns that exploiters now risk permanent bans without warning.
The first big round of World of Warcraft: Forever beta development notes tunes every class, with a damage boost for Holy Strike Paladins, longer Fire Mage buffs and Shaman totems that no longer stack. It also fixes many bugs, adds the Cooldown Manager and more gamepad options for testing, and speeds up respawns for many leveling quests.
This is a small beta client update for World of Warcraft: Forever (version 1.60.1, build 69977) that Blizzard asks beta testers to download to test a few fixes. It fixes some display and stability issues on Macs and makes gamepad play smoother on the character selection screen and with items that start quests.
This is the last patch before the Worlds patch. Riot nudges up fringe picks (Aatrox, Aphelios, Aurora, Draven, Elise, Fiora, Kha'Zix, Lillia and Volibear) and knocks down meta outliers including Nasus, Nocturne, Poppy, Rumble, Ryze and Vi. Top laners get faster role quest Teleport cooldowns, melee support starter items shift flat health into health regeneration, and League Classic adds Fizz, Graves, Nami and Nautilus.
What Riot calls its biggest patch of the year adds the Warden, a new 2900-credit scoped rifle, the Gauntlet: Glitched 2v2 ability-draft mode, and Agent Mastery progression. Competitive gets Performance Score (replacing ACS), Accolades, Rank Legacy and the ability to warm up in the Range while queueing, and Home and Lobby are merged into one hub.
This is a small patch, mostly bug fixes, ahead of the big 13.06 update. Riot starts penalizing stream sniping and instalock tools, Pick'Ems return for Champions Shanghai, and sound sprays are now only audible nearby. Riot also retimes how smokes on Astra, Brimstone, Clove, Miks and Omen dissipate, so they stop blocking flashes as they fade.
