"Illaoi" Champion Select Quote File

[10/22 UPDATE: This lone file has been removed in the small 10/22 PBE update.]

A champion select quote for a new "Illaoi" champion has been added in today's PBE update. Unfortunately, here is only a single Portuguese sound clip available  and no other files.


[ FAN TRANSLATION: "I'm not a fan of (giving) lectures, broken bones are a better teacher"]

We saw something similar happen earlier this year when Ekko's champion select quotes were added erroneously to the PBE prior to his actual reveal.

Slayer Pantheon & Jinx + Zombie Nunu Splash Art

The shared splash art for the upcoming Zombie Nunu, Slayer Pantheon, and Slayer Jinx skin is now on the PBE!
Zombie Nunu uses a flipped version on his champion page.
and here are the individual loading screen slices for the three skins:
A better look at these new skins in-game can be found on our 5.21 PBE mega page! 

New Summoner Icons

We have a total of six new summoner icons added in today's PBE update, although we do not have availability details yet!

First up are Zombie Brand and Slayer Pantheon themed icons.
We also have four new summoner icons for the four teams headed into the 2015 World Championship semifinals.
[NOTE: Remember, according to this post: "Players who own the 2015 World Champions’ team icon before the start of Finals will be rewarded with a bonus winner’s icon after Worlds is over." -perhaps these are for that as 5.21 will be the last patch to live before Worlds ends.]

Ranked Reward Borders

Updated test versions of the load screen borders have been added in today's update, including the new division markers to show which division in each tier players ended the season at.

NOTE: Socrates has mentioned on reddit  that "These are placeholder assets to test reward distribution on pbe and not final art."


LEFT to RIGHT: No Rank Blue Side + Red Side, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Master, Challenger.
More information on these and other rewards for the 2015 ranked season can be found here.

Skin Updates

While a minor change, Zombie Nunu's tattoo has returned.

[10/22 UPDATE] Slayer Jinx textures have been brightened up significantly.

Miscellaneous

  • [10/22 UPDATE] As I'm sure many of you will find humorous, the centered splash asset for Graves was updated to the correct cigar-less version.

Balance Changes

* Remember *: The PBE is a testing grounds for new, tentative, and sometimes radical changes. The changes you see below may be lacking context or other accompanying changes that didn't make it in - don't freak out! These are not official notes.
