Wild Rift patch 7.3b: Hwei and Senna nerfed again, Jhin and Yasuo buffed

Riot released 7.3b, the second follow-up to patch 7.3, on October 14, 2026. There are no new systems here: the patch trims a few champions that took off after the 7.3 marksman overhaul and gives some crit users that were left behind a bit of help.

Buffs

• Jhin: Passive crit damage goes from 80% to 85%, and his missing-health bonus now reaches full value at level 10 instead of 15, so his mid game spike comes sooner.
• Yasuo: Crit damage rises from 90% to 95%, and the cap on his passive shield goes from about 529 to 630.
• Volibear: Frenzied Maul (W) gets higher AD ratios, and the missing-health healing on the empowered hit goes from 8% to 14% at max rank.

Nerfs

• Hwei: His passive explosion, the Serenity shields and Crushing Maw all deal or give less, and Crushing Maw's cast range drops from 7.5 to 7. That is his second nerf in a row.
• Senna: AD per Black Mist stack drops from 1.25 to 0.9 and her crit damage from 90% to 80%. Piercing Darkness loses 20 base damage at every rank.
• Nocturne: Health per level drops from 134 to 128 and his ultimate cooldown goes up by 10 seconds at every rank.
• Yunara: Her passive and active damage lose 5 at every rank, and her ultimate cooldown at ranks 2 and 3 goes from 60 and 50 seconds to 65 and 60.

Tryndamere adjustment

Tryndamere now gets a flat 0.5% crit chance per point of Fury regardless of level, and Spinning Slash (E) has higher base damage and a 110% bonus AD ratio. Expect him to hit harder in the early levels.

Items and runes

• Statikk Shiv costs 2900 gold and builds 7 charges per attack instead of 5.
• Locket of the Iron Solari now costs 2500 gold and gives 300 health (was 200).
• Youmuu's Ghostblade and Yun Tal Wildarrows are 100 gold cheaper.
• Thornmail goes up to 2850 gold. Warmog's Armor now needs 1250 bonus health for its passive (was 900).
• Electrocute's minimum damage rises from 40 to 60, while Aery's shield and Grasp of the Undying's damage and health growth go down.

Jungle

The Crimson Raptor and the small Raptors have more health. It is a small change, but it slows down junglers who rely on clearing that camp very quickly.

Our take

Even after two nerfs, Hwei is still at the top of WildRiftCore's mid lane list, so keep him on your ban list. Senna's lower stack scaling will show most in long games, which makes enchanters like Sona and tanky picks like Braum more attractive in the support role. The cheaper Statikk Shiv helps marksmen like Twitch and Kog'Maw, two of the biggest 30-day win rate risers. Our draft assistant and tier list now reflect this patch.
