Comments
It was a bit disappointing to be honest, they didn't talk about a balancing patch at all, and as esport they announced the seasonal tournament, which already exist.
The new champion looks really fun to play tho
That's not a place to talk about balance patches though.
If you wanted to here devs talking about balance patch you came to the wrong place my friend. Seasonal reveals are all about hyping new content, always been.
Not talking about it but at least say something about it, a single sentence like "also there would be some balance in february" or similar would have been good enough.
What i find disappointing is the few news we got, basically the only new is the champion expansion
We got a new region, a co-op mode, and a new event. So no the champion expansion is not the only new thing. Don't get me wrong I wanna see a new balance patch too (The grand plaza and go hard both need some adjustment) but there is time for that and a seasonal reveal is not it.
That's so hype ! More regular Champion releases, Co-op modes, new region, new event across all Runeterra games, more customization with the champion mastery system ! The LoR community is truly blessed today
To Shurima. :)
