Context & Notes

1) Riot Xenogenic noted how Arcade Caitlyn Prestige Edition would be acquired:
"Been getting questions regarding Prestige Arcade Caitlyn's prices, acquisition method, etc, so here's some info: 
-Prestige Arcade Caitlyn will be a part of that event's event pass 
-She will cost 2000 tokens (missions will reward the same amount as Trials did)"
2) Riot Mort noted an ARAM change for next cycle for Corki:
"Thanks to @SmashGizmo, we've got a single change going into ARAM next patch that is a long time coming: 
Corki: 
  • The Package First Spawn Time:: 8:00 >>> 5:00 
  • The Package Cooldown:: 240 seconds >>> 150 seconds"
3) SmashGizmo also noted changes for how Corki's ammo bar would work:
