Minor Patch 0.36.0d - (July 12th, 2021)
After examining the data over the weekend, we're going to push out a quick little balance update.
No client update is needed. The hotfix will only affect games that begin after the hotfix is deployed.

The effects from the update regarding LP gains for early kills decreasing, and LP gain for late game kills increasing (June 10th) has been mitigated.

It's the end of the season, so we're being a bit more cautious to ensure that any balance changes don't overly affect rankings. There may, however, be additional hotfixes for some characters based on an increase in data from characters.
