Champion Reworks

Playing Wild Rift, especially on mobile devices, has some limitations regarding the quality of its gameplay. In this patch, these champion reworks focus on how to make the gameplay of the following champions more consistent and enjoyable to play.

Janna

Her rework mainly focuses on her Q, which needs double-tapping to release quickly, and her Ultimate, which players accidentally cancel.

Annie

Annie’s interaction with Tibbers, her Ultimate, will be the main focus of her rework, emphasizing the power of Tibbers over her opponents.
