Of course, this is far from the only problem with Seraphine. The character came under fire last month, when her lore made her an active beneficiary of in-world genocide . That was only a small part of the outrage, however, as the real focus was on Seraphine’s disturbing Twitter account . The branded account tweeted like it had feelings, trying to play up the character’s interpersonal struggles and lack of self-confidence like a cutesy marketing point. It was pretty gross, to say the very least, and hit a sour note during a time when everyone is suffering through a global pande
Ahri’s Charm is her most important initiating tool. The ability slows down the enemy target and applies a 20% bonus to all incoming damage. Pay close attention to hitting the enemy champion though, as the ability can also hit minions. Most important is Ahri’s ultimate, Spirit Rush. This ability adds a whole new realm of mobility to the character. Use it to track down and finish off injured foes or escape. The ability has 3 charges if used within a 10 second period of the first cast (these sylas Abilities are a little different than those in League of Legends ‘ mobile counterpart, Wild Rif
Many older cinematics have shown different champions fighting one another in epic but ultimately meaningless skirmishes that had no lore impacts. However, the Season 10 cinematic broke this trend by featuring battles steeped in recent story developments. In contrast, the Season 11 cinematic only has champions from the same region fighting off the Black Mist, undead monsters, or their possessed allies which truly emphasizes the apocalypse a worldwide Ruination would cause. As Lucian notes, “We can’t defeat him alone” and it may take most of the existing champion roster to put an end to the Ruined K
Gangplank is a champion who didn’t really need a rework , but he got one nonetheless, and he ended up becoming a handful in Top Lane. What made GP so troublesome was his crit build, as he could buy items to get maximum crit and basically one-shot squishy champions with one Q or a well-placed barrel att
As of patch 10.25, the best counters for Ahri have changed. Currently, her greatest threats are Seraphine, Neeko, Morgana, and Aurelion Sol (the latter could probably even take down gaming legends like Master Chief). If players see any of these picks in-game while playing Ahri, they should be cautious and avoid them as much as possible. It’s important to snowball early, so if the option to ban these champions arises, do
Ahri’s Q is her best tool during team fights. Orb of Deception can pierce through multiple enemies (and minions) in a single ability cast. This allows her to deal massive damage to enemies clumped together during the fights. Initiate for the team with Charm, then follow it up with Fox-Fire to close the gap. This combo will let the team single out an important target before the fighting has even be
Ahri should take Sudden Impact as her first rune. Sorcery is also useful, as it synergizes with her core abilities by giving more magic penetration. Take Transcendence and Gathering Storm in this tree as the second and third runes. Both of these runes focus on providing crucial extra damage as the game goes
Bard may not be the best Support , but his E can be very useful depending on the situation, and his ultimate is good for starting fights and defending teammates. With the addition of the Mythic Items, Bard is pretty much in the same spot he was last season, as long as he builds full
The AP fighter was described as “tailor-made for top-lane” and will have a small easter egg in the Ruined King game. Viego’s wife and queen, Isolde was previously noted as a seamstress and it would make sense for her to be reanimated quickly after her soul was ripped out of Senna in the Season 2011 cinematic by Viego. The mage was specified as a yordle who dislikes Bandle City and the most likely candidate is Yuumi’s unseen master Norra, especially since the golden effects in the teaser look almost identical to those in Yuumi’s splash art. Finally, there’s very little information on the new marksman, but they were noted as “a new sentinel of light”. Since the Sentinels of Light are an order which Lucian and Senna also belong to, it could possible be Daowan, a still living member previously mentioned in Senna’s st
Most Jungle mains play champions who dish out a lot of damage, but in order to play the role well, a champion also needs to be able to gank a lane in a way that catches the enemy by surprise. Rek’Sai may not be all that popular, but her ability to travel through underground tunnels makes her perfect for gank
No matter what, if the late game goes on long enough, Ahri will begin to fall off. As such, she will begin to lack in one-versus-one potential . Try to end the game as fast as possible by rushing down towers quickly and initiating team fights ea
Like its predecessor, Rocketbelt shoots out rockets that can damage enemies, but the rockets now deal more damage, and it gives champions bonus movement speed for 2 seconds. This works well with Vlad because he can activate Rocketbelt’s ability while in his blood pool, and thanks to the movement speed, he can start a team fight while unleashing his whole co
