Here's Riot Zhanos with a bugs & feedback thread for Renata Glasc and her release skin:
"Hello everyone! Renata Glasc and her launch skin, Admiral Glasc are making their entrance onto PBE, and are enabled and available to play! 
While there will be some downtime period for this PBE cycle that will reduce the overall time available, we'd love to hear your feedback and bug reports before we lock her in for her release patch of 12.4.

Here's Renata Glasc's in client bio:
Renata Glasc rose from the ashes of her childhood home with nothing but her name and her parents' alchemical research. In the decades since, she has become Zaun's wealthiest chem-baron, a business magnate who built her power by tying everyone's interests to her own. Work with her, and be rewarded beyond measure. Work against her, and live to regret it. But everyone comes to her side, eventually.
Check out her full biography on her champion page!

Ban VO: "I won't hold my breath."
Choose VO: "It's MS. GLASC, if you value your life."

Release Skin

Renata Glasc's release skin is Admiral Glasc:

Admiral Glasc

1350 RP
"Ambitious, cunning, cutthroat-- these qualities served Admiral Glasc well during the Galactic Civil War. They serve her still, both on the front lines and in the weapons manufacturing industry. As leader of the Royal Space Military's R&D unit, Admiral Glasc will bring order to the galaxy with a firepower unmatched: whether it's dropping planetside or traversing distant stars, the universe is her chessboard, and she is the queen."

Champion Skins

Three new Shockblade skins are now on the PBE, as well as the return of Firelight Ekko!

Firelight Ekko


Here's Riot Eneopa with a bugs & feedback thread for Firelight Ekko:
"Hello All! 
"It's not how much time you have, it's how you use it." 
Firelight Ekko is back! He’s heading onto the Rift with:
  • New models and textures!
  • New VFX!
  • New SFX! (For reals this time. This is not a typo :P )
  • New recall Animation!
  • And a bonus new Homeguard!
Firelight Ekko is set to be 1350 RP. 
Firelight Ekko is available on PBE! As players who get a first-hand look at this upcoming content, we want to hear your thoughts. Drop your feedback in the thread below! 
- Riot Eneopa"

 

Shockblade Kassadin

1350 RP
"As high priest of the Shockblade order, Kassadin has a deep connection to the Storm few understand, but all respect. It is the power of his station that allows the Shockblades to follow their targets in and out of the spirit realm, going where no one else can to protect the people under their charge."

Here's Riot Ehrgeizsu with a bugs & feedback thread for Shockblade Kassadin:
"The balance of power must be preserved.

Shockblade Kassadin comes with:
  • New models and textures!
  • New VFX!
  • New SFX!
  • New Recall!
Shockblade Kassadin should be already available on PBE! Feel free to leave any feedback or questions you have so far down below! 
Riot Ehrgeizsu"

Shockblade Shen

1350 RP
"Once half of an elite operative duo for the Shockblade order, Shen stepped away from combat after he made a mistake that nearly cost the life of his partner, Zed. Now Shen mentors young shinobi training to join their ranks-- but his new charge may inspire him to take up his sword and join the fight once more."

Here's Riot Ehrgeizsu with a bugs & feedback thread for Shockblade Shen:
"Without a sound.

Shockblade Shen comes with:
  • New models and textures!
  • New VFX!
  • New SFX!
  • New Recall!
Shockblade Shen should be already available on PBE! Feel free to leave any feedback or questions you have so far down below! 
Riot Ehrgeizsu"

Shockblade Qiyana

1350 RP
"Tempestuous as the Storm itself, Qiyana braved the Cloud Ritual despite warnings that no one had survived in years. Perhaps it was her display of stubborn courage the Storm found worthy, or something else; either way, she is now Shen's student, determined to master lightning the same way she mastered the other elements."

Here's Riot Ehrgeizsu with a bugs & feedback thread for Shockblade Qiyana:
"You may now appreciate me. 
Shockblade Qiyana comes with:
  • New models and textures!
  • New VFX!
  • New SFX!
  • New Recall!
Shockblade Qiyana should be already available on PBE! Feel free to leave any feedback or questions you have so far down below! 
Riot Ehrgeizsu"
