Winter Wonder Orianna
975 RP
"As the winter winds howl, it's time to bundle up, as Forecast Janna would say! It's important to dress warm, especially when venturing on the Howling Abyss to feed Poro Snax to a poro - or maybe one for each of them, if you're feeling generous!
Looks like Winter Wonder Orianna has that covered, and is ready for battle in even the coldest of places. (Yes, even Freljord!)
Winter Wonder Orianna will be available for 975 RP and includes:
- All new model and texture - she's decked out in cute winter gear! Oh, and did I mention her ball is a mechanical poro?!
- All new particles - full of snowflakes and wintery shimmer, and a poro shield for extra protection against the cold of the Howling Abyss, and of course, enemies!
- All new recall - the dance of the sugar plum poros! :D
Winter Wonder Orianna is is now available to play on PBE! We always find bug reports and feedback super helpful, so feel free to comment in the thread below! Likewise, if you've got any questions, post 'em here, and we'll do our test to answer them!
NOTE: (Nov. 19) Winter Wonder Orianna isn't ready to play just yet. Please hang tight!"
Poro Rider Sejuani
975 RP
Here's Nurse Flan with a bugs & feedback thread for Poro Rider Sejuani!
"Poro Rider Sejuani and her mega Poro steed has charged into the PBE to show us who the true ruler of the Freljord is! (The Poro, of course!)
How can you resist the fluffiness, the floppy tongue, the sparkly eyes! I NEED DIS IN MY LIFE.
- Completely new model (Big fluffy mega Poro! And a Poro Snack on a string!)
- Poro Snack Bola for her ultimate! (Frozen for maximum damage!)
- New recall! (A little poro pops out and plays with the mega Poro :D)
- New audio for her abilities and recall! ( -insert poro noises here- )
As players who get the first look at this in-progress skin, it would be wonderful to hear your thoughts and feelings on the new Poro Rider Sejuani skin! The feedback and bugs you leave here will help us get a better idea of things we may still have to take a look at. :]
See you on the Rift!

Miscellaneous
vLemon has posted a heads up regarding code changes to Summoner spells. These are NOT going to change their function but may lead to issues:
"Hey guys,
We made some changes to the code that is run when you cast your summoner spells. Our changes shouldn't change the behavior of summoner spells (or anything else in the game), however if you notice any issues with:
feel free to let us know!"
- Casting summoner spells
- Casting summoner spells, while channeling
- Casting summoner spells, right after or while casting an ability etc.
You no longer need to sell your old vision trinket to switch to a new one - all you need to do is choose another from the shop.
Balance Changes
