Naafiri has had a rough time finding her place in League of Legends since her release. She never quite found a solid role in either the jungle or mid lane, aside from a brief period of dominance when she was overtuned. After subsequent nerfs to her sustain, she faded into obscurity—never really taking over the meta or developing a dedicated fanbase like some other underplayed champs.
Now, Riot is giving her a much-needed update, and it’s looking like more than just a mid-scope adjustment. Here’s everything we know about LoL patch 25.06 so far.
Your Shop is Back!
In case you missed it, Your Shop was temporarily removed due to the Hextech Chest controversy. While there were concerns that it might be gone for good, Riot has confirmed it’ll be making a return in this patch. That means personalized champion skin discounts are back, much to the relief of deal hunters.
Naafiri’s Mid-Scope Update (or Maybe a Rework?)
Riot August has confirmed that Naafiri’s getting some major changes. While technically a mid-scope update, the sheer number of adjustments makes it feel like a full-on rework.

What’s Next?
