Patch 26.17 Overview
Patch 26.17 for League of Legends launched on August 25, 2026, with 12 champion updates and 2 item changes. The champions adjusted in this patch include Aurelion Sol, Cho’Gath, Graves, Irelia, LeBlanc, Nasus, and others. Each affected champion links directly from this list to its refreshed build, counters, and profile on LoLGuru. On the item side, Stormrazor and Sundered Sky were tweaked, which may change item paths on the build pages.
Alongside the balance changes, the patch also touches Classic, ARAM: Mayhem, Arena, and Updated System Requirements. Three new skins are part of the release. We matched them to our local skins database and linked each one to its gallery page. Think of this page as a digest of the official notes. The exact figures and full context are in the Riot article linked above. Builds and counters on the site refresh every 48 hours, so win rates and item paths will reflect patch 26.17 soon after launch.
