I’m thinking the q mana reduc is gonna help make him a better support. He can’t tower dive but now he can w stun tap q auto, e, etc more easily cause the cd and mana are lowered.
To be fair I only use him as an anti yuumi weapon

What are your guys' intentions with the empowered E movespeed addition? Is it to make his E pretty much a purely disengage tool? It seems a little strange on paper (ofc I'd have to play it to be sure of it), compared to something like say a damage reduction or something along those lines where it keeps you in the frontline afterwards.
Teamfight mobility can feel really good for repositioning after you're locked to a position by your E. Also it helps with escaping ganks etc. Definitely want to see how it feels in game to people
Sounds really cool! Sorry if that's off-topic, but can you share something about the enchanter supp buffs thats coming 10.25? The suspense is killing me.
Sorry I dont have excellent insight into those
With these changes, are you expecting him to use primarily lethality assassin items, or tap more into bruiser itemization?
Definitely expecting him to try more bruiser items. (Lethality is definitely still good)
We've seen a lot of success on Eclipse, and some matchup dependent stuff with even items like Divine Sunderer or Botrk. Cleaver feels way better now too
Hey all, these should drop Wednesday to PBE (I think). I'd love to hear how it sounds and how it plays out if you can manage a few games
Riot Beardilocks is the one who gave Viktor his new VFXs! I only helped by tweaking a couple things, but 99% of the work was from Beardilocks!
You and Beardilocks are da real MVPs
Honestly, with all the imports there’s got to be close to as many Canadians in the league as Americans. Nor to mention a few casters and coaches are Canadian too
Now that OCE players count as residents in the LCS am I still considered an import?
I saw it and thought the main reddit should enjoy the hugs. Thanks for all you hard work, I know the internet can be hard but keep smiling =D.
Very much appreciated. :)
So let me get this straight. They buff Varus by:
- Reducing his ult speed
- Halfing his on-hit damage
- Making his W stacks lower his cooldowns slightly
Did a Varus main sleep with a Riot employee's girlfriend or something?
I can't wait for the "Reddit Knows Balance" video on this one.
Or I'm wrong. But this is a gigantic buff.

This was fantastic. Hang in there friends. :)
Hi there! Will Elderwood Ornn be available in hextech chests after it becomes just RP skin (not charity skin anymore)?
He will continue to be available via direct purchase. We thought it wouldn’t be fair to Ornn mains to have his next skin locked after the charity event.
Everyone stay calm:
Elderwood Ornn, Azir and Ivern:
Everyone is not calm
OLD GOD IVERN
OLD GOD IVERN
After Dunkmaster folks said they wanted a dark Ivern skin. Here we are.
Finally, no more daily posts about Ornn not getting skins for at least the next year bless you Riot.
We got there fam
skins are supposed to create different fantasies for the champion
Nail on the head. Doesn’t mean Leona won’t eventually be in this thematic, but this is the reason why she’s not here for the first release of Battle Queens.
Wait, who is the dark themed female enchanter?
Morgana, and in some ways Senna (though she is a Marksmen she does play like a enchanter a bit)
I REALLY hope they fixed the in-game settings reset bug, especially with the left minimap and minimap movement. No mention of it anywhere.
Hey, Just spoke with the team that works on this part of the game, it will be fixed in the next patch!
Hello everyone! I'm Riot Koyuncu, one of the QA engineers on Champions Team.
Rell, the Iron Maiden, is now available on PBE! She'll officially launch to Live in two weeks, and the team is looking to collect feedback and fix any major bugs that are discovered by PBE players. If you stumble upon something strange related to Rell or her Battle Queen skin in your games, you can us know by leaving a comment in this thread. This can be anything ranging from strange SFX/VFX to odd ability behavior. As always, detailed information (e.g. bug repro steps or video clips) are very helpful at helping us triage issues before her release.
Cheers! - Mikky
External link →Elderwood Ornn is a charity skin, Riot has already stated that his release date is the 16th of December at the bottom of the Esports All Stars post they released a week or so ago.
I believe we've updated the article to say 10th. We've been moving release dates around recently to mitigate risk around the days leading up to us going on Winter Break.
Overall I've found it to be a decent sized buff, the R reliability down is more pro-skewed as others have mentioned, but the refunding cooldowns leads to really high damage with abilities and W procs over the course of the fight. Overall a shift to Q+E max with normal crit/high AD builds from the traditional on-hit builds.
With that said, predicting the % winrate magnitude is pretty tough, especially in pre-season, so if it doesn't land favorably I'm sure we'll follow up.
