The legacy vault opens once again, snowdown skins are revealed, relic shield gets nerfed
and we've got info on yasuo all that and a very special pax sivir skin giveaway right
here right now on the league update.
The legacy skin vault is reopening, from november 29th to december 31st, 47 previously retired
legacy skins will be purchasable at their regular price. Now you may remember just before
halloween that riot announced the temporary return of limited edition skins for the holiday
season. These are not those limited edition skins, these are legacy skins but limited
edition snowdown skins will also be returning, so what's the difference. Well you see limited
edition skins like festival kassadin and red card katarina are skins that came onto the
market with the intention of only being available for a limited time. While legacy skins on
the other hand were skins that riot retired due to their inability to meet the ever increasing
graphical standards of the game. Like highland tryndamere and the ever popular frozen shen.
If you still don't understand the distinction then check the link the description for a
full list of skins returning for the holiday season.
Speaking of the holidays some crafty dataminers gave us a little peek at the upcoming snowdown
festivities. Winter wonderland LuLu and some kind of canadian father signed are coming
our way along with yasuo this holiday season. But what exactly is yasuo, well his lore and
emotes would indicate that he's an alcoholic samurai. And his ultimate would also clearly
indicate that he plays a lot of street fighter. Yasuo doesn't seem to use a resource to cast
his abilities, instead he builds something called flow the faster that he moves. Which
synergizes well with sweeping blades which allows him to dash through multiple enemies
making them in the process and stacking damage as he goes. While the ability has no cooldown
he can't dash through the same enemy twice until the mark fades. His q allows him to
poke, aoe and eventually knocks up enemies line, enabling the use of his ultimate which
teleports him to a mid air target where proceeds to juggle them and anyone around them street
fighter style until they are all sufficiently injured.
But perhaps Yasuo's most controversial ability is his only defensive one, windwall which
creates... well a wall of wind that blocks enemy projectiles. Even ults, take a look.
And now a word from our sponsor lolchat. The fully functional League of Legends Chat

Finally as the new support items hit the live servers last week one rose above the rest,
relic shield. Which became the starting item for both support and adc as well as top and
the second top. That's right relic shield's bonus gold was so good that some players were
giving up jungling and going to to syphon and gift gold to their new lane partner. The
item has since been nerfed to only be viable on melee champion. How do you feel about this
change? did you like relic shield or did it just break the game? let me know in the comments
and you could win a code for pax sivir valued at a whopping 50 ebay $ thanks for watching
and enjoy the game.
