NEW CHAMPIONS

ZYRA, RISE OF THE THORNS

Born in an ancient, sorcerous catastrophe, Zyra is the wrath of nature given form—an alluring hybrid of plant and human, kindling new life with every step. She views the many mortals of Valoran as little more than prey for her seeded progeny, and thinks nothing of slaying them with flurries of deadly spines. Though her true purpose has not been revealed, Zyra wanders the world, indulging her most primal urges to colonize, and strangle all other life from it.

Zyra will be released on December 22 at 00:01 UTC.

Grease up those thumbs because ARURF is back! It’s fast, it's fun, and it's random?! Jump on to the Rift with a random champion with 0 cost abilities, lots of Ability Haste, and more!

All Random Ultra Rapid Fire Mode (ARURF) will be available on December 8 at 00:01 UTC

CHAMPION CHANGES

ASHE

Ashe is another marksman whose arrows have been falling a bit short in the Dragon Lane. With these changes, she will be able to strike her opponents right where it hurts.

  • Ranger's Focus

    • Attack speed increase: 25/35/45/55% → 30/40/50/60%

FIZZ

Fizz has been running rampant in the Jungle, flushing out his opponents. We are toning down the fizz just a little bit to give everybody else a chance to catch their breaths.

  • Base Stats

    • Damage to monsters: 105% → 90%

GWEN

Gwen’s damage has been inconsistent, making her struggle in skirmishes in both Baron Lane and the Jungle. We’ve sharpened her scissors to make sure that she’s keeping up!

  • TITAN'S WRATH

    • Cooldown: Max level 12s → Max level 11s
    • Shield: 55/65/75/85 + 10/11/12/13% maximum Health → 55/65/75/85 + 11/12/13/14% maximum Health
