Context & Notes

1) Riot Scruffy posted changelists for 10.22 champion adjustments - including the Annie & Nasus changes we saw in a previous PBE update.
"With 10.22 we have a bundle of small champion adjustments coming:  
-Open up loved but unviable roles for Annie/Brand 
-Slight modernizations for old spells for better feedback and usability 
-Slight satisfaction increases with better visualized mechanics"

2) RiotKatana noted on twitter they are looking into changes for K/DA ALL OUT Evelynn's splash art to make it more realistic to her in-game model.
"Hey all, we recognize that this was an inconsistency we missed and apologize. Katey gave a ton of great context in this thread already but updating that we're exploring splash adjustments to feel more realistic to her in game model."

Riot KateyKhaos posted a preview of the updated splash art to social media:

"We've updated the K/DA ALL OUT Evelynn splash to better represent the hairstyle that is is reflected in game."

3) KateyKhaos noted changes to K/DA ALL Out Evelynn's charm were coming soon:
"WIP, but they'll be updated."

4) Riot Jag posting a few misc Seraphine changes over on /r/LeaguePBE:
"Hey all, few tweaks coming in:
  • We altered Seraphine's animations to have more of them with her eyes open.
  • Increased the passive music volume since a lot of people were having trouble hearing it.
  • Fixed a lot of bugs; if you keep seeing them, please let us know and enclose a video if possible.
Thanks so much for testing her out on PBE!"
