The creator of the next champion for LoL writes that she will be able to be played on every line and build every item
Why could the next character appearing in League be really special?
New heroes appear in League of Legends on a regular basis, and Riot usually announces them in advance. At the moment, it is already known that the next character that will appear in LoL will be a jungler who comes from the void. There is also a lot of information from leaks, which you can read about in another article (Rem’Ora is to be a new Void champion in LoL, according to leaks. Leakers list potential skills).
Although Riot has certainly been working on the heroine for a long time, because her first official announcements appeared at the beginning of season 12, only now the designers are relatively openly publishing content about the new character. What interesting news could you learn from one of the Rioters?
Riot August on the new jungler
In recent years, Riot has been designing the style of heroes so that they can be played in a specific position. Riot assumes that the champions released will be picked in a particular role, and often when a character is strong elsewhere, designers simply nerf them. There is a very high probability that this rule will also apply to the upcoming jungler, however one Rioter suggests that the new champion may be unique.
Riot August, the lead designer of characters such as Viego and Gwen, suggested that his character can be played in any position. He also ironically wrote that a hero can benefit from any items, regardless of whether they provide AP, AD, or are designed for tanks.
It’s hard to say if Rioter wrote it as a joke, or if the developers are actually working on creating the first League character who could officially go to any position in the game. Balancing such a champion would certainly be a huge challenge, and letting them build every item that can be found in the game wouldn’t make designing such a character easier.
Although Riot has shown in the past that they like to hide messages about new characters in their announcements, the new hero is unlikely to be that extensive, and Rioter’s statement is just a joke.
