Patch Notes v1.0.0.122/v1.40.XX + Comments

My Comments/Summary:

• The new monkey king looks like major fun, I'll probably be buying him early on and letting you guys know how he is.
• Nerfs: Annie, Corki, Gangplank, Orianna, Udyr, Yorick
• Buffs: Galio, Jax, SWAIN,
• Tryndamere's new fury system seems like it will give him some more usage for a little while as flavor of the month.
• Twisted Fate and Pantheon's globals being nerfed is pretty big news, seems like they're really going to nerf pantheon into the ground, but TF was looking for some nerfs for a while now. They're still pretty good, and about nocturne level distance, but you can't backdoor their base starting from your well anymore.
