Two days ago, the designer just broke the news that a new round of new hero blueprint plans were about to be released, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly. This issue of the New Hero Blueprint reveals two new heroes coming soon, as well as changes to the version balance.
First up are the new heroes:
The next new hero to appear is also the previously exposed Darkspawn hero: Naafiri, also a pure monster hero.
"The lone assassin is gone, the team assassin is in charge", Nayafili is an assassin hero born specifically for the hunt player.
Second upcoming hero: Briar
This is a new wild hero, and the birth of this hero is also more interesting. Originally, he planned to design Nayafili's skill set, but later felt that it was a bit deviating from Nayafeli's assassin gameplay, so the idea was stranded. Later, it was seen by the designer August (Sanhuan Brother), so it was restarted.
The third upcoming new hero: Zhongdan
There haven't been many revelations yet, only that it is an artist from Ionia. As a rule, there will be corresponding graphic revelations in the blueprint plan, but this time there is none. The designer's explanation is that the artist will design his own image with his own hands (that is, there are no drawings yet, I don't know if the designer is lazy).
In addition, the Riot Designer also revealed that there is a cute creature shooter hero who is hatching on the way...
This year's mid-season release's focus: Equipment changes, especially for the Shooter Hero's Mythical Gear, Armor Breaker, and Mage Outfits. The designers even said that it was possible to remove the mythical equipment mechanic (which may also be retained, but without limiting uniqueness). One thing is to say, the mythological mechanism is indeed one of the difficulties of balance.
Changes to the shooter's equipment include:
Kraken Slayer, Endless Shield Bow adjusted to legendary costumes
The Startik Electric Blade returns
Ghost's Berserk Blade will be closer to its old version
Assassin Equipment Changes:
The Spirit of Dreams has been adjusted to a mythical costume and the effect has been improved
Draxa's Twilight Blade reworked
Darkwalker's Claw adjusted to legendary equipment, and the Thrust effect adjusted to a new effect (not yet revealed)
Mage Equipment Changes:
Rework multiple mage equipment for better satisfaction and crafting routes
Bring a little familiar taste of the old Evil Grail
Strack Challenge Gauntlet, Coughing Up Blood Tomahawk, Three-Phase Power, Advance Saboteur, and Ship Breaker will also be adjusted after MSI.
New modes and hero changes:
The last developer log mentioned the new 2v2v2v2 mode, and this time a new breaking map: the new map mode, which is expected to be launched during the summer vacation.
The weapon Jax will receive visual effects updates, and Aion will be reworked in a medium during the summer.
Timo and the blind monk's visual effects update is still in progress. Scanner's rework may not wait until early next year.

The emote roulette is adjusted, and the 5 emote positions are increased to 9, so players don't have to be too entangled. But at the same time, the designer said that in order to free up more memory for other functions, the future League of Legends client will no longer support 32-bit operating systems.
Finally, the designer also mentioned that the man-machine mode will be upgraded, which is relatively long, and interested players can go to the official website to learn about it.
Cost-saving version: man-machine is more "intelligent".
Then there is the DRX champion skin that many people care about, although it is not mentioned this time, but according to the previous timeline, it should be online in the next or next US beta version update (not excluding the possibility of accidents).
