League of Legends Champion’s Debut
As we know, recently, the League of Legends champion – Aurora has officially become the latest champion to join Summoner’s Rift as a Mage, usable in both Mid Lane and Support roles. Notably, in recent professional matches worldwide, Aurora has achieved many positive results. A prime example is the recent match between Kwangdong Freecs and KT Rolster, where BuLLDoG from KDF used Aurora and truly shattered KT. It is worth mentioning that this was just Aurora’s first match in a regional Major tournament. Previously, Aurora was also used in VCS Summer 2024 but ended in failure for Playcool.
However, in reality, when placed in the hands of a skilled player like BuLLDoG – who is currently performing very well with KDF, Aurora truly showcases impressive power. In the first game against KT, BuLLDoG’s Aurora not only “shut down” Bdd during the laning phase but also proved to be very strong in team fights. In fact, even without a full item build, Aurora could dominate in team fights or pick off enemies. It can be said that this new League of Legends champion is a very suitable choice for Mid Lane players who prefer a play style focused on Ability Power rather than traditional Marksman playstyles.
Concerns About the New League of Legends Champion
However, viewers have expressed concerns in a different direction. Specifically, many opinions suggest that Aurora has the potential to become Riot’s new “200-year champion.” In fact, Aurora is even rated higher than K’Sante in terms of impact on the game. The only weakness pointed out by many players is that this champion has relatively low health. But in reality, this is a common trait among Mages, as they only need a precise combo to take down an opposing target and then retreat to safety.
It is very likely that Aurora will be used more in upcoming matches. Fans are probably looking forward to seeing how this seemingly powerful champion performs in the hands of players like Faker, Chovy, or ShowMaker.
