Included in July 24th's news is the launch of our newest champion Zyra, the release of the Mauy Thai Lee Sin skin, and delicious red posts about upcoming Rumble nerfs, Darius changes, and the possibility of future UI improvements.

A TON of new spell effects on Wildfire Zyra, including new plant/seed models and fiery particles.

I legit can not think of a champion I hate playing against more than Rumble despite my normal yordle love.

"There will be Rumble nerfs - we buffed him a LOT in the Jayce patch by fixing his flamethrower. Now, it does broken damage (since the skill was balanced when it was really buggy and never hit as much as it should have) but the skill actually hits



Basically, we need to boing the buffs back a bit, though Rumble will be stronger than before we buffed him in the first place. Xypherous did the fixes and may be able to explain in more detail.



tl:dr: We're nerfing him due to overbuffing in the last patch, but he'll still be good."

"Flamespitter's what we're currently looking at since it's what benefited the most from his recent useability buffs (which dramatically upped its time on target and therefore effective damage). That's not to say the rest of the kit's guaranteed not to change of course, but that we're starting by seeing whether we can get the desired change with just modifications to Flamespitter."

It's no surprise a high damage, repeatable true damage ultimate is just as annoying in game as it is on paper.

The ult / summoner spell display from Spectator Mode - clean, efficient, and informative.

We do have a team focused on UI improvements right now, and you'll see the fruits of their labor some time in the future. I know I've suggested the Summoner/Ultimate addition, similar to what we have in Spectator."
