League of Legends Is Updating 4 More Champions' Effects

Riot Games is continuing its series of visual effects updates for older champions with four new characters in line for some changes in the next patch cycle. Amumu, Lulu, Tryndamere, and Ziggs are the four champions who will be updated in Patch 9.12, and three out of the four will have all of their skins' effects modernized as well. These four are the latest of several smaller visual effects updates that have been released for the likes of Kennen, Wukong, and Dr. Mundo among others.

Riot Sirhaian, a VFX artist at Riot Games, shared a post on the League boards which listed everything that's happening to the four champions. All of their visual effects updates are now on the PBE for testing with feedback open on anything that may need changing. The Rioter also reminded players that this kind of update is a side project and not the same as a full Visual and Gameplay update, so any work being done on whichever champion players are voting to update and the Pantheon rework won't be affected.

"Just like the previous ones, and since these are smaller updates geared toward sprucing up some of the oldest members of the roster, they aren't in the same prioritization conversation as to how we decide who gets a VGU (where we take model, gameplay, and thematic into account too!): they do not affect any other timeline, and are more of a side project," the Rioter said.

Each of the changes to the individual champions' kits can be found below along with a video for each that shows their new effects.
