A jungler with medium range is coming to League of Legends. We will show you everything we know about Lillia before the release.
Who is it about? League of Legends will soon receive a new jungle champion. This was hinted at in the roadmap published by Riot Games in early June. Datamining has already revealed the name “Lillia”, which is directly associated with the jungler.
In the “big summer event”, you can already try out the jungler.
We summarize here what we already know about the new champion for LoL.
Who is Lillia?
This is what we know: While there are not many details yet, Riot already roughly introduced the jungler on the roadmap from June 2020 (via Leagueoflegends.com).
Riot describes her character in the roadmap as “shy”. One can search for her in the jungle, but it should be quiet and not scare her.
“… if we scare her, she might throw something at us that clouds our vision and makes it blurry,” describes the lead champion producer Reav3 the champ. He then continues in the text that the world slows down. Then he falls asleep during the description.
Mysterious voice lines have also been found on the PBE servers, reports DotEsports. It says:
- “They took your home, Lillia.” “Never forget this loss. Do not forget this loss. Let it flow through you.”
- “Poor lost souls coming into bloom…” says another voice. “I’ve been waiting for you.”
You can listen to these leaked voices on soundcloud.com.
What are Lillia’s abilities?
This has been hinted at: Based on the story in the roadmap, it is suspected that Lillia can put her opponents to sleep with her abilities. This could work similarly to the “Sleep Bubble Alarm” of Zoe. This attack first makes opponents drowsy and then puts them into a slumber.
However, Lillia may also have a completely new mechanic that has not been present in the game before.
It is also known that Lillia will be a “ranged champion with medium range”. Initially, it was unclear whether the champ should be an assassin or a ranged champion.
When is Lillia’s release?
This is what Riot says: Also in the roadmap, Riot Games announced that one will have the opportunity to try out the two new champions from the roadmap during a big summer event in July.
It is assumed that the second champion is Yone.
While there is not yet a specific release date, hints on the PBE server have led to speculation. A new item called “Lillia’s Haiku” was found there. It reads that Lillia was found in the woods. According to the description, this item can be opened on July 22 at 9:00 PM German time.
Update 7.7.: This is what Lillia looks like: By now, Riot Games has officially shown the new heroine Lillia in a teaser trailer.
