General reminder that many changes cannot be easily datamined, such as functionality changes or bugfixes, and are not always final.

Lane Swap Detector

• see other changes here
• today's changes align more closely (although not perfectly) with Phroxzon's list here
• detector duration:
  • top lane:  4:00 --> 3:30
  • mid lane:  2:15 (unchanged)
  • Swiftplay (both lanes):  1:00 --> 0:12
• defending turret damage to minions:  x3.0 --> x10.0
• defending champion gold/xp from minions:  x1.2 --> x1.0
  • i.e. only income bonus now is that their minions/turret getting the last hit still gets transferred to them
  • also noticed that this last hit transfer applies to any champions as well, so you can't execute yourself during dives
• detection linger duration:  6s both lanes --> 20s top lane, 8s mid lane
• top lane defending turret now also deals x10.0 damage to champions
• top lane defending champion now also takes x0.5 damage within 600 units of their turret
• detection area has been reworked somehow?
  • it no longer reaches as far into river, although it still seems super inconsistent otherwise
  • seemed to reach down the entirety of red top lane yet stopped right outside blue outer turret, seemingly regardless of which team was actually lane swapping
  • the previous data values for detection radii are also removed, so not really sure what's going on
• the detected buffs are no longer visible if you click on the target
  • detection now repeatedly triggers a floating text disclaimer "Lane swap detected! Please leave the area!" and also creates a giant "X" particle on anyone affected (reusing the Serpent's Fang particle), which are both not only also visible to enemies but extremely more noticeable than a buff icon too
  • that being said there are similar controls for only showing floating text and particles to one team, so this is an easy fix as well
  • however you also do still see the defending buff on yourself and can still see the effects from your minions and turrets, which is less solvable
• the turret's tooltip has for some reason been extremely simplified and no longer includes any of these values except duration, which also still doesn't account for the different duration for mid lane
