League of Legends: the next champion will be Seraphine

After the recent rumors that have taken place in the last few days, the official confirmation has finally arrived: Seraphine will be the next champion of League of Legends. The new member of the K / DA arrives in all its glory to establish itself among the heroes of the Rift. It was the developers of Riot Games themselves who announced that the virtual pop star will join from 13 October to the MOBA game, describing his many abilities and sharing splash art and numerous new details about his character.

Seraphine is a one-of-a-kind champion. She has social media accounts, takes selfies with her cat, and collaborates with global pop group K / DA. But this is not the Seraphine we are here to talk about. Seraphine has spent her life surrounded by a constant barrage of songs from both the citizens of Piltover and Zaun, as well as the souls trapped around her. She may not be able to save them, but that doesn't mean she doesn't care about them or her fellow citizens.

Riot Games then explained what Seraphine's abilities will be in game, related to music. First, the first will be a passive skill, called Stage presence: every third base ability cast by Seraphine it will echo and automatically launch a second time. Additionally, whenever she casts an ability near an ally, she'll create a Note that gives her basic attacks more range by dealing additional magic damage. There is therefore High note, with which Seraphine it will cast a pure note, dealing magic damage that increases based on the target's missing health percentage. With Surround Seraphine envelops her close allies with a song, granting movement speed and a shield to herself and allies. If Seraphine already has a shield, she can heal nearby allies, restoring their health based on the number of allies around her. Change of pace, instead, leads Seraphine to unleash a powerful sound wave, dealing magic damage to enemies in a straight line and slowing them. Finally, with Encore, Seraphine takes the stage and projects a bewitching force that captivates enemies and deals magical damage. All champions hit (including allies) become part of the exhibition, increasing the range of the ability and granting allies the maximum number of Notes.

Seraphine's launch aspect, Seraphine K / DA ALL OUT, it will then be his new supreme aspect.

There is no doubt that the path that brought Seraphine to the Rift was special. For months, you have been following her story and finding out how she went from being a fledgling producer to collaborating with one of the most famous women's groups in the world! So, as we decided who would receive our next supreme skin, Seraphine immediately seemed perfect for conveying the kind of “deep and engaging” theme we had outlined in the last few articles regarding the relationship between champions and supreme skins. After choosing Seraphine, we had to understand how we were going to represent, from a narrative and visual point of view, her story and the experience of the fans who followed her. As a result, Seraphine K / DA ALL OUT will include a quest system that will permanently unlock two additional forms upon completion of a series of narrative quests.
