Even though this is a hefty chunk of patch notes—over 10,000 words—it feels like there's a lot missing. A huge chunk of the changes listed here are specifically for Ruthless Mode, a very niche and challenging mode that not many people play. It's very bizarre POE currency trade, because players expected a lot of balance changes coming with this patch and there's really none, other than those ascendancies they got reworked.
It's possible such changes were omitted for some reason, or maybe aren't even finalized yet. However, as of today, we're exactly one week from the release of patch 3.22, Trial of the Ancestors. This makes it more likely that there just aren't sweeping class changes with this season, so feel free to play your favorite 3.21 build from the Crucible season.
Here's all of the Path of Exile (PoE) Trial of the Ancestors 3.22 Patch Notes.

All of your old characters and items are still present in the Standard and Hardcore leagues, but you're encouraged to join the new leagues, complete challenges and demonstrate your mastery of Path of Exile! In the Ancestor Challenge League, you'll visit the Karui afterlife and defeat ten tribes in a series of tournaments to earn valuable new rewards. As you play through the league, you'll find tradeable Silver coins which are used to gain passage to the Karui Afterlife cheap POE currency. You'll start out with a basic team of three Karui warriors to enter the Trial of the Ancestors. In each match, you can select which tribe to compete against, based on the reward offered. You can examine the battlefield configuration of the enemy team and strategically place your warriors to challenge theirs. Then you and your party will compete alongside your warriors to destroy the opposing team's totems and win the match. When you compete in tournaments, you'll accumulate favour with each of the tribes. This can be spent on recruiting warriors and purchasing field items and equipment to power up your team. Each tribe has their own specialities and you can mix and match warriors from different tribes to build a team that embodies your strategy.
