Voiceover

NOTE

"Fear not... I will make use of your corpse"





Here's a video of Yorick's special voiceover interactions:

Lore

''These isles… How they scream.''

The last survivor of a long-forgotten religious order, Yorick is both blessed and cursed with power over the dead. Trapped on the Shadow Isles, his only companions are the rotting corpses and shrieking spirits that he gathers to him. Yorick's monstrous actions belie his noble purpose: to free his home from the curse of the Ruination."

SPECULATION



Lore Changes Elise and Maokai have had their in-game lore entries updated in the client! Please remember these are only the short form in client entries and typically longer form bio & stories follow!



Elise

''Beauty is power too, and can strike swifter than any sword.'' Elise is a deadly predator who dwells in a shuttered, lightless palace, deep in the Immortal Bastion of Noxus. Once she was mortal, the mistress of a once-powerful house, but the bite of a vile spider god transformed her into something beautiful, undying, and utterly inhuman. To maintain her eternal youth, Elise preys upon the innocent, and there are few who can resist her seductions.

Maokai ''All around me are empty husks, soulless and unafraid... but I will bring them fear.'' Maokai is a rageful, towering treant who fights the unnatural horrors of the Shadow Isles. He was twisted into a force of vengeance after a magical cataclysm destroyed his home, surviving undeath only through the waters of life infused within his heartwood. Once a peaceful nature spirit, Maokai now furiously battles to banish the scourge of unlife from the Shadow Isles and restore his home to its former beauty

[PBE CONTEXT] Ramping up for Worlds content

Riot Pabro

"Hey Everyone,

This is Pabro, from the Personalization team here to talk about the slew of World Championship related skins, icons, and good stuff hitting PBE for Patch 6.18. We're super excited to celebrate the 2016 World Championship with you, and we’re bringing a bunch of ways to show off your team pride in game.

First off, we’re bringing back World Championship summoner icons and temporary team emotes. You’ll be able to purchase and equip an icon for your favorite team which unlocks the ability for you to show your support with an emote. This year, you'll also be able to upgrade emotes across three tiers to show your dedication to your team. Each tier has a different border for the icon and emote, and the final tier has additional sound effects and a special esports recall particle! The final tier of emotes is hitting PBE today, with the other tiers coming at a later time. More details on how the upgrade system will work to come later, but for now enjoy playing around with your favorite team on PBE. (Note, if your team doesn’t make it into Worlds they will not be featured on live. LEND THEM YOUR ENERGY!)

Secondly, we’ve added some extra art to Summoner’s Rift to commemorate the World Championship. The map will feature special textures to reinforce the spirit of Worlds in every game.

Last but certainly not least, we have some exciting news for the Championship skin line. We’re happy to introduce Championship Zed as the mid laner we’ve been waiting for since the famous Faker vs. Ryu showdown. Take him for a spin, and let us know how he feels.

In addition to Zed, we’ll also be bringing back Championship Riven, our first member of the Championship team. We know this has been long-awaited, so check out the full details and further info on her return here.

Please hit us with your feedback and stay tuned for more details that we’ll reveal soon in anticipation of Worlds!

Cheers,

Pabro"

only the teams that make it into worlds will have icons featured on live! More details on the upgrade system and such to come Here are the new World Championship esports summoner icons mentioned above, remember that! More details on the upgrade system and such to come at a later date.

Riot Pabro

"Hi there,

I’m Pabro, a Product Manager, on the LoL Personalization Content Team (aka Skins team) and I’m here to give you all an update on Championship Riven as she will be hitting PBE very soon.

Worlds is a special time of year, and with the introduction of Championship Zed (surprise!) who rounds out a full Championship team comp, we wanted to look back to Season 2 where the championship line began. We felt this was a great opportunity to bring back the original Championship skin: Championship Riven for a new generation of players. And we damn well wanted to make sure she felt awesome for original owners. So we spent some time giving her texture some love and bringing it up to our current art standards.

We didn’t want to stop there though, and decided we were going to do something extra special for those who originally obtained her four years ago during the Season 2 World Championship.

If you are an original owner of Championship Riven, we are adding in some extra in-game recognition for you. Firstly, we will be making a custom vintage loading screen banner that is different than previous versions so people will know you’re an OG.

Secondly, we’re creating a “vintage” version of her in-game model that features an exclusive crown and a glowing particle on her sword when her ultimate, “Blade of the Exile” is activated. Original owners will get the “vintage” version of her updated model and the new version as well.

Any new owner of the skin will be able to obtain Championship Riven with an updated texture but none of the aforementioned extra goodies. The goal here was to ensure that vintage Championship Riven commemorated the start of the Championship skin line and people who obtained her at that time will get to celebrate that forever.

Championship Riven has been highly coveted by a lot of you for a looooong time. I mean, there was even a petition about it. Over the years, we’ve heard a lot of feedback, excitement and discussion around this skin so we felt it was important to do something different than what we’ve tried in the past.

We hope you enjoy the update and changes. As always, let us know what you think. We welcome it.

Thanks,

Pabro"

Introducing Invulnerability HUD

Riot Penrif

"Have you ever been sad when a big attack lands on its target only to find out they're invulnerable?

Have you wanted to know that the health bar you're about to lay into can't be moved?

Did you see the Taric Ult in the Ryze Champion Spotlight and wondered wtf?

Well, have we got the feature for you! It's Invulnerability HUD, (most likely) coming in Patch 6.18!

We've added a fancy gold border to champion's health bars when they can't be touched. In addition, we pulled a couple abilities that acted a lot like invulnerability and went ahead and made them fully embrace invulnerability. We're hoping this makes interacting (or not) with invulnerable champions a less frustrating experience. If we've bounced off that target please let us know in the comments below."

8/29 UPDATE ]



The INVULNERABILITY HUD is now available for PBE testing! As a reminder, this set of changes puts a golden shield and outline around HP bar when a champion is invulnerable from effects like Lissandra R, Bard R, Taric R, Zhonya's, and more! The previously mentioned isAs a reminder, this set of changes puts a golden shield and outline around HP bar when a champion is invulnerable from effects like Lissandra R, Bard R, Taric R, Zhonya's, and more!

Ququroon for the different effects for how the UI handles + pictures: invulnerable and both invulnerable & untargetable, as well as untargetable for reference! Below are explanations gave for the different effects for how the UI handles + pictures: invulnerable and both invulnerable & untargetable, as well as untargetable for reference!

"Invulnerable: Target cannot take damage, but can still be hit. Shows a glow on the HP Bar. (Taric R, Kayle R, etc.)" -src

"Invuln and Untargetable: Target cannot take damage, nor can they be targeted. Shows both a glowing, faded HP bar. (Zhonya's, Liss R, etc.)" - src To clear up confusion, here is how just an untargetable but not invulunerble unit looks on the HP bar - keep in mind this is it works on live already:

"Untargetable: Target cannot be targeted, but can still take damage. Fades the HP Bar. (Fizz E, Vlad W, etc.)" - src

Miscellaneous

Arcade Ahri's splash art has been updated to include the whisker marks on her face.
