IT'S SHYVANA TIME Y'ALL!
Welcome to patch 26.6! In this week's patch we have Shyvana's new update hitting the Rift with a brand new model, visual effects, voice over, and skins, all of which will come out alongside her release! We've also got your usual balance changes, a new skinline, Warhounds, and balance changes for Arena and ARAM: Mayhem with a toooon of bugfixes!
This patch's live balance focuses on a small set of outliers and most importantly looks to restore Lissandra to her old 3-second Q cooldown glory.
Don't forget that First Stand is kicking off this week so make sure you tune in to see teams fight it out in our first tournament of the year!
