As part of our celebration of @CaptSarahRed , we worked with her to make a quest that grants 60 Miss Fortune fragments and a brand new Miss Fortune player icon. The quest will be live starting in the next patch and last until the end of the year. Thanks, Captain! 💖

if you tested LoR's new animation speeds and thought 2x was still a hair too fast, good news! i also felt like that and made eng add 1.5x speed just for me (and you). it should be in the next patch

seeing a bit of confusion so i want to be super clear that it's 19 existing champions plus Viego for constellations launch, but going forward we'll be releasing older backlog champions (also with constellations) at a much faster rate than before! tell me who you want to see

@Kingsgrave_ elder can't be stopped, but effects can still modify the damage as its dealt. so a tough nexus takes 29 instead of 30, and sump will prevent it all and shuffle in 150 puffcaps
