Champion Skins
Five new skins are now on the PBE!Pool Party Heimerdinger
1350 RP
"Through the combination of precise schematics and top-of-the-line construction tools, Heimerdinger's next sand castle creation will be his grandest iteration yet! Assuming Syndra doesn't land on it again..."
"Hey All!
Pool Party Heimerdinger is building turrets on PBE. He'll be coming with:

Pool Party Jarvan IV
1350 RP
"For Jarvan, there's nothing more relaxing than hanging out at the beach. No kingdoms to run, no thrones to sit on (save for his favorite beach chair), just the sound of the waves and, if he listens closely, the faint whistle of a volleyball being spiked directly at him..."
"Hey All!
Pool Party Jarvan IV is striking onto the Rift! He'll be coming with:
Pool Party Jarvan IV will be 1350 RP and is available on PBE! Feel free to leave any feedback or questions you have down below!"

Pool Party Orianna
1350 RP
"With her latest outfit, Orianna is finally able to submerge completely in aquatic biomes. This brings her great joy, as a day at the beach previously required subsequent weeks of scrubbing salt, sand, and sometimes an angry crab out of her gears."
Here's Riot KiWiKiD with a bugs & feedback thread for Pool Party Orianna:

"Hey All!
Pool Party Syndra is spiking on PBE. She'll be coming with:
Pool Party Syndra will be 1350 RP and is available on PBE! Feel free to leave any feedback or questions you have down below!"
- New models and textures!
- New VFX!
- New SFX!
- New recall animation!
Pool Party Taliyah
1350 RP
"Taliyah once attempted to describe surfboarding to a perplexed Jarvan, using such terms as “get pitted”, “tubular”, and “ride the barrel”. She's pretty sure he still has no idea what she was talking about."

Context & Notes
1) Riot Scruffy provided a preview of midlane changes:"Testing Mid lane 10.13:
-Mid lane spawns a cannon every 3 >>> 4 waves for the first 15 min (after it's normal)
-Mid minions move slightly slower to the lane (reducing clear and roam potential)
Still evaluating these. The goal is to bring mid economy back to s9 level not below."He added these would be moved back to after the Worlds patch:
[1] Feedback on the Mid lane changes has been extremely useful. Thank you all.
Our updated plan is to move these to after worlds patch. More info in the thread.
(1/4)
[2] With the extra time we can:
1. Strike the right balance with mid lane roaming and influence
2. Build in long term systems that let us adjust position power more easily (avoid a situation like last preseason where we wanted to buff top but had to buff all solo lanes)
(2/4)
[3] Our reasoning for the pivot is to avoid disrupting the pro game too significantly late in the season.
Also, draining resources from mid while not increasing roams was going to be hard to accomplish with simple fast changes. These goals push against each other.
(3/4)
[4] Side note, I'm a big fan of exposing our work to such a large audience even when it's still not fully solidified.
There is no sharper tool for us to check if we're on the right track than shining the light of day on it. Lucky to have an engaged community, might as well use it.
