Riot Pls! Big update on preseason item overhaul. -A new item class "Mythic Items." Very powerful but you can only have one. -Mythic items shape your build and add unique stats to your other items. -More WIP item shop interface -Player behavior update

We're getting very close to PBE, where you all will be able to see everything that is planned and give us tons of feedback. Don't be alarmed if its not 100% perfect and polished yet, we're listening and adapting. We will put in whatever follow up we need to get these right.

Worth noting, not all Mythics will be fully new items. Some of our iconic old items will be upgrated into Mythics so that they can still be a build defining first purchase.

@DragonflightLoL Most of the time mythics will be the first item buy. There is no hard rule so there will still be a few builds that buy them second I’m sure.

RT @LeagueOfLegends: The new Riot Pls is here! Safelocked breaks down preseason’s item system update, shares our progress on behavioral sys…

Boris will be eating good this November.

Also if you missed it - a tease of one of our new AP fighter items: Cursed Demonhelm. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ehe8VexU8AEw_h_.jpg

@jvitorfragoso @moobeat It does have a cap.

This does have a cap, not shown in the tooltip.

Battering Ram is an old iteration of a fighter Mythic, it's already pretty heavily changed. You wont see this exact iteration on live. We are exploring a "stickiness" option for fighters to compete against dueling and tank busting Mythics. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ehe-l8kVoAAtFJ2.jpg

Behemoth Slayer - Giant killer, maximum DPS. - Choose into very tanky teams or teams that dont have a lot of aggressive threats.

Crimson Shieldbow - Powerful offense combined with necessary defense. - Choose in games with unavoidable burst threats like talon/rengar

Mythic item goals are to combine a powerful fantasy with strategic choice. Take the marksmen choices we presented today: (thread)

Galeforce - Rule breaking mobility and burst opportunities. - Choose into teams with squishy backlines or important skillshots that can be outplayed (morgana, xerath)
