God Fist Lee Sin

1820 RP

[Homestart buff, he stomps the ground as he runs]

As a legendary tier skin, God Fist Lee Sin also has a unique voiceover including it's own special interactions!

Riot LoveStrut

""They dare to challenge a god. Let them try."

On the cusp of godhood, God Fist Lee Sin seeks a challenge that will finally push him into ascension. His quest for a final battle has proven fruitless so far, but maybe Summoner's Rift can provide him with a worthy opponent.

Divine Details

All-new model and textures (God Fist Lee Sin's training has honed his body and mind, showing through his muscular model, divine markings, and third eye headpiece.)

All-new VFX (His attacks and abilities strike with transcendent power.)

All-new VO and SFX (New voice lines and processing to match his powerful sound effects.)

All-new animations (New varying auto-attacks, new Resonating Strikes that change at differing travel lengths, new ways to send enemies flying with your Dragon's Rage. He's learned many new moves through his training... including dance moves.)

Ward-hopping to the God Fist Ward, while using God Fist Lee Sin, will also trigger a special ward animation

Set to be Legendary - 1820 RP (Prices are subject to change.)

We always love hearing your feedback and feelings! All bug reports and thoughts help us make these skins even more awesome, so please keep 'em coming!

Thanks, cuties! <3"

Context & Notes Lastly, check out the links and posts below for context on a few of the changes in the 7.7 PBE cycle.



1) In his Meddler commented on several balance changes in testing for 7.7:

"More balance changes being tested We're about to start a new PBE cycle tomorrow, all going according to plan. Since my last post we've also started looking at a few more potential changes, which include:

Alistar - buffs to passive and E (update last year made him healthier we think so should be able to put a bit more power into him) Camile - W no longer healing off non champions, W slow scaling by rank instead of a flat 80% ( targeting laning phase sustain and gank assist) J4 - buff testing shifting W from bonus shield per champ nearby to max health scaling (part of our pass on junglers that need a bit of help) Volibear - buff to R, with more bounces and improved bounce logic (another from the jungler pass)
