In recent years, it has been quite interesting that leaked information about League of Legends often comes from the Brazilian server. Even the current Star Guardian event had story images and a list of champions with new skins leaked from this region a month in advance.
This is also true for the Udyr rework, as just a few days ago, information about the release date of this project was leaked on the Brazilian server. Specifically, according to the leaked information, Udyr’s rework will be launched in patch 12.16 and will appear on the PBE server on August 9. After two weeks, the reworked version of Udyr will be applied to the official server.
In fact, even a light rework of Aurelion Sol has been hinted to launch in November this year. It is likely that Riot will introduce this rework just before the Pre-Season phase begins to test it with new content. According to previous leaks, the rework direction that Riot is applying for Aurelion Sol will turn this character into a very powerful late-game Mage.
The final noteworthy information leaked is about a new champion in League of Legends, which is said to resemble Doomfist from the Overwatch game. This new character is revealed to be a Top Laner from Shurima and is extremely muscular.
As for the skill set, we do not have much information yet, only that it will be extremely complex and intricate. It is possible that Riot will give this character a huge glove (or something similar) as a weapon, which is why people think of Doomfist. The final piece of information revealed is that the new Mid Lane champion will be launched in 2023 and will be designed in a monster-like form.
Of course, these are still just leaked pieces of information and we cannot rule out the possibility that Riot may change their champion release plans in the future. Players will have to wait for the next champion development roadmap (after Udyr’s rework is released) to know more about Riot’s plans for new character launches.
