- Skin bios for skins this cycle were added:
- Heartseeker Jinx: "Love is a battlefield, and Jinx comes prepared! Armed with her beloved companion Fishbones, she's ready to break hearts—and bones. But if she likes you enough, she's prepared to play nice. Maybe. Probably not."
- Heartseeker Yuumi: "Yuumi's always looking for what cats love: a belly full of fish and a warm lap to curl up on. But with the romantic mood captivating even Book, Yuumi knows the only thing to set her heart purring will be a very precise number of pets."
- True Damage Senna Prestige Edition: "Having topped the charts once more, Senna finds herself in the familiar space of fame and celebrity. Between cosmetics deals and fashion shows, she offers a clear message to fans and haters alike: Don't call it comeback. Senna's been here for years."

Context & Notes

"Wukong Players on PBE: Wukong’s Q range was changed when the code was re scripted but was not intentional. Will be fixed before he goes to live."
