League of Legends Patch v1.0.0.125

BY Andrew Miesner / September 14, 2011

Today, League of Legends received another update, adding a brand new champion – Riven, The Exile. The patch included changes to Shaco, Mordekaiser, Shen, Orianna, and Taric. This patch also squashed several bugs such as the inconsistency with the jungle creep minimap icons.

Riven, The Exile

Riven

Runic Blade (Passive): Riven’s abilities charge her blade, causing her to do bonus damage on her next autoattack. Riven can store up to 3 charges, but only expends one at a time.

Broken Wings: Riven steps forward and lashes out in a series of powerful sword slashes. This ability can be activated up to 3 times in a short period. 1st Use/2nd Use: Deals damage to a small area in front of her. 3rd Use: Jumps into the air and slams downward, causing a larger impact nova that deals damage and knocks nearby enemies back.

Ki Burst: Riven damages and stuns nearby enemies.

Valor: Riven dashes forward and gains a shield for a short duration.

Blade of the Exile (Ultimate): Riven’s sword reforms, giving her a percentage multiplier on her total attack damage, extended range on her damaging abilities and basic attacks and the ability to use Wind Slash once. Wind Slash: While Blade of the Exile is active, Riven can reactivate the ability to emit a large shockwave that deals damage to all units hit based on their missing life.
