Nilah will be the 7th skirmisher in LoL for 2 years. “Riot realized that people like to fight in close quarters”
Another skirmisher in LoL. Gamers wonder what Riot is up to.
Over the last two years, as many as 7 skirmishers have been added to League of Legends, i.e. characters who are great at short distances and can deal massive damage. This is a large number, considering that they had hardly ever been released before.
For this reason, players are wondering what Riot is about and why it was decided to have so many such characters. One of the employees decided to dispel any doubts.
7th skirmisher in 2 years
Riot Games has its “phases” to bring certain elements to League of Legends. This means that if the creators like something, they often limit themselves to this element. Now you can see it in the new characters whose main role is precisely to be a duelist. It is about:
- Bel’Veth
- Sylas
- Viego
- Yone
- Lillia
- Gwen
Now Nilah is about to appear and she will be the 7th skirmisher, and players are slowly starting to feel overwhelmed with this content. It was mentioned on Reddit, and the topic gained quite a lot of popularity.
As the player emphasizes, the problem is not the number of such characters, but that Riot does not add other classes. One of the employees decided to join the discussion in the comments, and he explained why so many heroes appear now.
RiotAxes actually agreed with the player and explained that it is related to planning new characters. He also added that there probably won’t be a similar character next year as they have Jax or Trinda’s VGUs planned and not a new champion.
Now players are wondering what characters will be forced by the creators. Some people bet on mages, while others say they will be tanks.
