Where'd they say that?
A few places, though easy to miss. Confirming it's the case again here too!

Hey Meddler are you able to share if you're going to record the next dev update this week or next, iirc you mentioned wanting to get one out in late July
Yeah, we’re still aiming to record soon (probably next week) and then get the video out just before the end of the month
You're a legend, Meddler.
Thank you for all the work you and your team have been putting in this year.
<3
Is there wasd movement :pleading:
Same movement as on other maps
When will the new mode hit PBE if you don't mind me asking?
Tomorrow, barring any unexpected issues. Probably early afternoon LA time at a guess
I'm confused, they said they will drop a lot more information about the 2v2v2v2 gamemode on monday together with a few gameplay clips. Is this it? Or is it still coming? Because this shows basically nothing about the new mode
You can see some footage of it in the event teaser here:
And then it'll be on PBE tomorrow
Damn I didn't notice that. Why the hell did they announce it so soon? They want two cycles on PBE I'm guessing?
3 week PBE cycle, so still just one patch, but a longer than usual one.
Hopefully we get more 2v2v2v2 info soon.
Hits PBE tomorrow!
They're part of the new gamemode. If you've played TFT before, you get "augments" as the game progresses which are like a selection of power-ups you choose from (hence why Lucian has a Shield around him in the Senna Lucian vs. Yasuo Yone fight). I presume one of them is an ult reset if you get a kill.
Pretty much! Though I believe this particular augment (unless it's changed since I last played it) is just that you can cast your ultimate a second time each match, kill or not
Meddler, i have a question about the 2v2v2v2v2(?). It will have bans? there can be the same champ on other teams?
*example:
- team 1: akali and illaoi
- team 2: akali and zed
Yes on bans, yes on duplicate champs being possible. You won't see other peoples' picks until in game either
Hey Meddler! Dunno if you can answer this, but who's the announcer VA in the video?
Not 100% certain, from memory though it's a new VA we haven't worked with before
So is the video on monday going to be our usual dev update with other stuff or will it just be focused on the 2v2v2v2 game mode?
Will be a while (late July most likely) till the next Dev Update. Stuff on Monday will be a pre PBE trailer showing a range of things that are part of Soulfighter, including a bit of 2v2v2v2 footage
okay, but what does that mean in relation to this teaser? I couldn't tell if this was
something about the league fighting game
some sort of 1v1 limited game mode
some sort of unique community 1v1 tournament similar to clash
hell, I still have no f**king clue what this teaser is actually advertising
This is the fight you’ve been waiting for.
Soul Fighter opens the stadium doors July 20.
Made in collaboration with Wizz and CRCR.
none of that means anything to me and I've been playing league since 2011. Is this just going to be another battle pass grind-athon with generic daily missions?
This is just a small teaser today. Lot more substance on Monday in a longer video
Can’t believe riot made an entire separate league themed fighting game as a summer event
lol
Is this new gamemode gonna have ranked and stuff or is it just a casual rotating mode?
Will have a rating system, similar to the one TFT uses for HyperRoll
I had a brief, terrified moment where I thought Riot had actually named their fighting game "Soul Fighter" like some shitty shovelware game from the mid 2000s that tricked your poor grandma into buying it as a Christmas gift because you said you wanted "Street Fight or Soul Caliber" for the PS2.
Also, who's voicing the announcer? I know it's an "announcer voice" but it sounds like a LCS or LEC caster that I can't quite put my finger on.
We're instead going for Street Kombat Soul Tag Guilty Versus Ultimate Edition Z.
Normally I support the unique skins argument but you are right that this can work as well. Odyssey Kayn as an ultimate skin would have worked, too. And as much as seraphine release was a fiasco on many fronts, her skin being this kd/a tie-in was a great idea.
Agreed, Odyssey Kayn's a great example. I think even as a Legendary he gets a lot more compelling if you've seen the associated Odyssey stuff that fleshes out the world he's part of a bit more
This has no connection to Fighting Games
The event thematic and associated skin line do have some fighting game inspiration in them for what it's worth :)
really hope that there is a dev blog in store for the 2v2v2v2 mode, love reading the dev blogs and the last one [Naafiri] was a blast
We'll do some stuff (I think once it's live in July, can't recall exact timing though)
Can we get mastery points (not tokens just points) and eternals progress in this mode? This looks amazing and I’ve been waiting for a new primary game mode, but part of what held me back from investing in previous modes is not being able to progress in those areas.
Not sure if we've discussed or not. Will pass the suggestion on though!
