One For All: Summoner's Rift on the PBE!
One for All: Summoner's Rift, our very first game mode, is now back on the PBE for testing and will be returning to live in 5.20! Since the last time One for All: Summoner's Rift was live, Azir, Bard, Kalista, Tahm Kench and several other champions & reworks have all been released - just imagine the sort of shenanigans can five of each of those bring the returning game mode!"Heya ^.^/
It’s been awhile since we saw the original One For All on Summoner’s Rift. A number of new champs have come out since its last run so we thought: why not bring back the OFA funtimes? :D
A bit of trivia for those of you collecting random League knowledge: One For All was the very first featured game mode we ever made (almost 2 years ago this month!) o.O
One For All is a 5v5 battle played on SR where everyone on your team uses the same champion, decided by a vote during champ select. Some champs have amazing synergy with themselves (Kalista? Kalista! :D) so enjoy exploring the possibilities.
There’s been quite a few new champions (and many others reworked) since the last time we did OFA. We’d like some help from you guys specifically testing out the following champions here on PBE before the mode goes live. We’ll be temporarily disabling all other champions in OFA for the first few days on PBE, just to help focus the initial testing on these below champs.
To reiterate, when OFA goes live, ALL champions will be available to play. We’re just limiting the pool here on PBE to help focus testing on the newer script-worked champs.
- Azir
- Bard
- Brand
- Darius
- Kalista
- Kassadin
- Kennen
- Kindred
- Ekko
- Fiora
- Gangplank
- Garen
- Gnar
- Morde
- Mundo
- Rek'Sai
- Rumble
- Ryze
- Skarner
- Tahm Kench
- Tristana
- Twitch
- Vi
- Zilean
Thanks guys. Now to try out that matryoshka Tahm Kench. :D"
Miscellaneous
- After being delayed, KINDRED will be released sometime during 5.20! Click here for more information on the delay or our 5.19 pbe coverage for more on Kindred!
- Shadowfire Kindred's loading screen slice has been updated to include both Lamb and Wolf. Context available here. While the new slice is below, click here for an old vs new comparison.
- While her gameplay remains the same, Riot Stephiroth has posted a thread regarding a Kalista script update. This is an "under the hood" change rather than something you would be able to feel in-game.
- The bar color on the upper right of the client has been changed. Instead of a dark purple, it is now teal.
