Riot's notes from patch 1.01 to 13.06 change Reyna in 7 patches. The latest is patch 12.02, published 2026-02-03.

1. Patch 12.022026-02-03

   Soul Orbs (Passive)

   • Duration in world decreased from 4s >> 3s

   Devour

   • Overheal applied by Devour is now temporary and lasts 10s
   • Healing applied while in Empress is still permanent

   Empress

   • Ult points increased 6 >> 7
   Why, in Riot's words

   Reyna has been ever present and dominating pickrates in ranked for a long time. We’re looking to increase proactive requirements on Reyna after she gets a kill to encourage continued aggression.

   *The ability description had incorrectly listed the duration at 3s while they were lasting 4s. The duration now accurately matches the description.

2. Patch 11.082025-10-14

   Leer

   • Nearsight radius increased from5→to7m

   Empress

   • Reload time modifier: 0.9
   • Firing rate modifier: 1.1
   • Weapon draw time modifier: 0.9
   • Spread recovery modifier: 1.1

   Leer

   • Health decreased from80→to60

   Empress

   • Updated to match stim standardization
   • Reduced reload time decrease from25%→to10%
   • Reduced fire rate increase from15%→to10%
   • Increased weapon draw speed reduced from25%→to10%
   • Reduced weapon recovery speed increase from25%→to10%
   Why, in Riot's words

   We're also aiming to create more consistency across the game's various debuffs, making it easier to build muscle memory when playing with or against effects like Nearsight, Concuss, and Stims.

   Most Duelist gameplay is in a healthy state, so we're making minor tunings. We want stuns and slows to feel rewarding when they lead to kills, so we're making adjustments that will reward precise timing and well-coordinated ability combos.

3. Patch 11.002025-06-24

   Leer

   • HP decreased 100 >> 80
   • Audio and visual hit confirm feedback has been added to shots that land on Leer.
   Why, in Riot's words

   Leer is tankier than many of our other comparable shootable objects, and can feel especially so when it’s unclear if you are successfully shooting Leer after it has formed.

4. Patch 7.102023-11-14

   • Leer (C) cooldown increased44s→to51s
   • Empress (X) will charge 14% slower
   Why, in Riot's words

   Reyna's Leer (C) has proven specifically potent in the close confines of Team Deathmatch since it doesn't affect allies and Empress (X) lacking a time constraint if she's rolling has proven extremely powerful. These changes are meant to create more downtime between these power moments and push Reyna to prioritize orbs if she wants to try and take over with Empress.

5. Patch 6.072023-04-11

   • Yellow indicator removed from Leer (C)
   Why, in Riot's words

   In an effort to consolidate and make consistent our use of UI indicators throughout our roster, we’ve updated some abilities to have or not have UI indicators.

6. Patch 5.072022-10-04

   CLEER

   • Wind-up of nearsight effect decreased .6s→to.4s
   • Range Restriction on Leer removed
   • Nearsight unequip delay decreased.7→to.5
   • Duration decreased2.6s→to2.0s
   Why, in Riot's words

   Reyna’s flash underperforms as a selfish entry-tool, especially at higher skill levels. This set of changes is intended to give Reyna more agency around how she decides to peek after casting Leer. Also, it should sharpen Leer as a powerful angle-breaking tool against Operators on maps with longer sightlines. We’ve also felt like individual casts of the eye remain in the world for too long when the eye isn’t destroyed. If Reyna is now able to make more selfish plays off her Leer, we then wanted to reduce some of the value it has when thrown for teammates.

7. Patch 2.032021-02-17

   • Maximum Devour(Q) and Dismiss(E) charges reduced4→to2
   • Cost of Devour and Dismiss charges increased100→to200
   Why, in Riot's words

   The price increase of Devour and Dismiss in tandem with the Frenzy price increase (see below) should also push some tougher economic decisions during pistol round. Now, she’ll no longer be able to buy a charge or Leer(C), her Soul Orb abilities, and upgrade her pistol. On the flip side, Reyna getting Soul Orbs from recently damaged enemies should help her reliability when playing around teammates, and reduce the animosity when an ally lands the final blow and Reyna goes empty handed.

   Slain enemies that Reyna has damaged in the last 3 seconds now drop Soul Orbs, even if Reyna does not land the killing shot
