Massive Marksman Buff

Riot has been hearing the cries of ADC mains and have decided to buff pretty much ever one of their durability. This is more specifically targeting the early planning phase. They are also increasing mobility through their items. There are some “marksman” who are being left out for various reasons but mostly because they are rarely played in the bot lane.

New Honor Level 5 Chromas and Rainbow Flutfs

“As a reminder to all those who purchased a Fluft icon this year, Rainbow Poro (and his new friends) will continue to bring color to the Rift and Abyss until June 30. Equip any of the seven icons to change your profile background and to run around in-game with a colorful Homeguard trail.”

“We’re debuting this year’s additions to the chroma lineups for Grey Warwick and Medieval Twitch! When you hit Honor 5 this season, your Honor Capsule will contain a token you can redeem for one of these new chromas if you already own the base skin.”
