In League of Legends, the developers at Riot Games are bringing back a popular game mode. This time, however, it is more chaotic than ever.
What game mode is it? A little over two years ago, the Ultimate Spellbook game mode was removed from League of Legends. At the end of September, the game mode is coming back and includes some new features.
How does the mode work? In this game mode, champions get additional ultimate abilities from other champions alongside their normal abilities.
The mode is played normally in 5 vs. 5 on Summoner’s Rift but runs faster because the additional abilities provide more action. However, the developers at Riot Games have changed the game mode to make it even more chaotic, as the adjustments show.
The second season of Arcane is coming soon. Here you can see the trailer:
Double Ultis for Even More Chaos
What has changed? In the two years that the mode was not in the game, it did not just collect dust – on the contrary: the developers came up with some new features and changes:
Among the new features are 4 instead of 3 options for ultimates at the start of the game. Additionally, new extras have been added to the overall list, and “at regular intervals throughout the game,” you can now switch your ultimates.
Perhaps the biggest and most important change also brings a lot of chaos to the game. The new feature “Ultimate Ammo” is an upgrade that can be obtained in the mid-game of the match. This upgrade allows your ultimates to have two charges.
You can obtain the upgrade from Baron, the Elder dragon, and by earning dragon souls. With the two charges, it will also be possible for you to use two ultimates back-to-back. This will make the new game mode even more chaotic and wild due to all the ultimates.
Are there any other changes? Yes, the developers at Riot Games have also tweaked some small details. Jungle players, in particular, are likely to appreciate the improved timers for jungle monsters, as well as a balance tuning for auto-smite.
Those who want to test Ultimate Spellbook can do so already on the PBE server of League of Legends. The new mode could also be a consolation for the professionals from America. Their heart of eSports is now being taken from them: LoL: Team wins spectacular first championship title – it will be their last, as Riot takes away the USA’s own league
