Lulu Patch Notes

The official Lulu patch notes are up! Be sure to check out all the differences between the unofficial notes posted a few days ago and these ones. If you payed attention to those notes, you likely also noticed the changed to Hexdrinker and the new Maw of Malmortius item. Riot has cooked up an official announcement and theory post about the changes for your reading pleasure.

New Skins in the Store

• Bittersweet Lulu
• Wicked Lulu

League of Legends v1.0.0.136
Lulu, the Fae Sorceress

• Pix, Faerie Companion (Passive) - Pix fires magical bolts of energy whenever his owner attacks another enemy unit. These bolts are homing, but can be intercepted by other units.
• Glitterlance - Pix and Lulu each fire a bolt of magical energy that heavily slows all enemies it hits. An enemy can only be damaged by one bolt.
• Whimsy - If cast on an ally, grants them movement speed and ability power for a short time. If cast on an enemy, turns them into an adorable critter that can't attack or cast spells.
• Help, Pix! - If cast on an ally, commands Pix to jump to an ally and shield them. He then follows them and aids their attacks. If cast on an enemy, commands Pix to jump to an enemy and damage them. He then follows them and grants you vision of that enemy.
• Wild Growth (Ultimate) - Lulu enlarges an ally, knocking enemies away from them and granting them a large amount of bonus health. For the next few seconds, that ally gains an aura that slows nearby enemies.
