Mozi officially returns to the mid lane, Bian Que transforms from a poison-wielding healer into a powerful healer, and while mages have been absent, a veteran hero makes a strong comeback.

Season S44 has officially begun. What new content are you Summoners most looking forward to? Is it the story of the Six-Eared Macaque's battle against the Golden Cicada? Free epic items? Battle Pass exclusives? The new character has been confirmed, leaving mid-lane players disappointed, but don't be too disappointed, because many veteran mages are making a strong comeback, including Mozi, who has dominated the game for many years.

Mozi and Bian Que are among the main characters in this update. Mozi is a mage, but his output environment lacks protection, so he is forced to wear semi-tank items to play as a support. He has created a new path for himself and has a companion to fight with. He can withstand attacks and deal damage, has multiple control abilities, and his lightning cannon can deal massive damage, making the opponent suffer. He can also fight marksmen one-on-one without any problem, since the opponent plays with basic attacks while he is a skill-based hero, so his chances of winning are extremely high.

On the other hand, Bian Que, despite being a legitimate mid-laner, was largely ignored. He shared a common problem with Zhou Yu: his damage output was time-consuming, his pace was incredibly fast, and he could easily initiate team fights, ambush enemies from bushes, and everyone was unleashing devastating attacks, leaving him no chance to recover. He would gradually throw potions at Zhou Yu, stacking his passive, using healing or poison attacks. In an era where damage was easily negated, his role was zero, his damage was easily negated, and he was neither a sustain nor a utility character. His stats plummeted, and he was largely ignored. However, this season, the developers decided to lend a helping hand and rescue him from his dire situation. Congratulations to both of them on their return to their original forms.

His transformation quickly sparked discussions on forums, with everyone analyzing the numerical adjustments to see if he could truly shoulder the responsibility of dealing damage. In reality, his changes were quite vague; it didn't directly indicate a shift to offense, but rather that he retained the support role while strengthening the mid-lane, simplifying the gameplay. Mid-lane damage was high, at the cost of reduced crowd control. As a support, he became tankier, and his ultimate's crowd control was more reliable, only with reduced damage. It sounded unbelievable, as if he had made adjustments to both lanes, automatically changing the numerical values when switching roles.

Starting with 42 spell power and a 4.58-point reduction in lightning damage, even after purchasing full damage items, the Holy Grail stacks cooldown reduction, Echoing Staff and Rabadon's Deathcap increase spell damage, Void Staff provides penetration, and with the Sage's Tome six-item build, the spell power is approximately 1536. Do you think this number is reasonable?
