Riot Games released the official patch notes of "League of Legends: Wild Rift" 2.0a earlier today. The notes reveal some balance changes and adjustments to the hit MOBA mobile title. It also introduced nerfs and buffs to some champions in the game.
"League of Legends: Wild Rift" Champions Nerfed And Buffed In Update 2.0a
The latest update nerfed Zed's Razor Shuriken with its projectile now down to 125 from 175. This change grants players some time to dodge the skill shot and survive the champion's devastating Death Mark. In addition to Zed, the fan-favorite jungler Master Yi also received a nerf in the latest patch.
Riot Games believes that his split pushing potential is overwhelming that allows him to melt turrets like it's nothing. With the latest patch, devs nerfed the true damage Master Yi gets from his Wuju Style skill. On structures, the true damage he now deals with is only 33%.
Some players believe that the recently released character Wukong is a little bit underpowered. Riot Games decided to add an additional feature to Wukong's Warrior Trickster skill. Also, his clone now only mimics him when he casts his Gold Staff or Crushing Blow skill.

Its evolved version also received a nerf, which is now (1.5 x Champion Level) + 15 from (3.2 x Champion Level) + 15.
