League of Legends

Riot is updating another senior champion. What will the refreshed Fizz look like?


Fizz is a hero who joined League of Legends in 2011. Although the hero has been in LoL for over a decade, his skill set and appearance have not changed significantly since its release.

Riot decided that it was time to refresh the model and animation of this champion and decided to start work on the VFX update, the effects of which players can see now.

Fizz VFX update

Riot regularly refreshes the older part of the heroes and releases VFX updates that improve both the model and animations and sound effects. Virtually all players approach it with a lot of enthusiasm because the appearance of many characters was significantly different from those currently released.

Similar to the previous VFX updates we’ve made in the past (Leona, Nami, Vel’koz, etc.), we’re working on making improvements to champions whose spell effects are in need of some love. Our aim is to get their visuals to current League standards and improve gameplay clarity.

Keep in mind that these are smaller updates geared toward sprucing up some of the oldest members of the roster; the champions we select aren’t in the same prioritization conversation as to how we decide who gets a VGU.

What has changed in the individual hero skins and what do the new models and animations look like?
