Ziggs Patch Notes!

It looks like Riot chose to go as early into February as they could and update the game tomorrow ( February 1st )  starting at 1:00 am PST. RiotRara estimates the downtime will last six hours, at which point you will be able to enjoy all the yordlexplosions you want. Be sure to keep an eye on the Service Status forum's post for the most accurate information as the patching process is underway.


Check out the patch notes below! Included are the Co-Op Vs Ai updates, the new items, and all those updates ( plus more! ) that were squeezed into the patch preview.

League of Legends 1.0.0.133
Ziggs, the Hexplosives Expert

• Short Fuse (Passive) - Every 12 seconds Ziggs' next basic attack deals bonus magic damage. This cooldown is reduced whenever Ziggs uses an ability.
• Bouncing Bomb - Ziggs throws a bouncing bomb that deals magic damage.
• Satchel Charge - Ziggs flings an explosive charge that detonates after 4 seconds, or when this ability is activated again. The explosion deals magic damage to enemies, knocking them away. Ziggs is also knocked away, but takes no damage.
• Hexplosive Minefield - Ziggs scatters proximity mines that detonate on enemy contact, dealing magic damage and slowing.
• Mega Inferno Bomb (Ultimate) - Ziggs deploys his ultimate creation, the Mega Inferno Bomb, hurling it an enormous distance. Enemies in the primary blast zone take more damage than those further away.

Ninja Edit: Not sure what exactly is going on, it looks like New Page link to the notes was taken down, but the forum post with the notes remains up. Maybe it's just a hiccup?

Edit 2: In addition to granting vision, Ez, Ashe, and Ziggs ults are now visible on the mini map with little icons for the whole team to see. Neato! Thanks reddit!
