Rise of the Elements

Summoner’s Rift will be undergoing a great deal of change in the 2020 preseason. One of the most significant details from the broadcast was the introduction of elemental rifts. “As teams take down elemental drakes, one element will eventually dominate the rift, permanently altering the map” according to League of Legends EP, Jessica Nam.

Infernal will knock down walls and burn brush around the map, Mountain will add new terrain, Ocean will make the brush grow larger and spawn extra Honeyfruit across the jungle, while Cloud will create wind tunnels with extra movement speed. 

Summoner’s Rift is also seeing a few minor tweaks, meaning that with all of the latest announcements, no two games should ever feel identical. These changes will come into effect on October 22 on the Public Beta Environment before making their way to the live servers on November 20.

Senna announced as new Champion

Senna was announced as the very first marksman support champion in the history of League of Legends.

Additionally, Riot announced rotating seasonal sets, more arenas, new units, and more content that will be coming to the title in the near future.

League of Legends fans have long been clamoring for a mobile port of the popular MOBA and Riot Games finally showcased exactly what that will look like.
