League of Legends’ next Champion gets her own Airbender anime intro

Taliyah the Stoneweaver

Did you think Riot Games would stop introducing Champions at some point? Silly person.

League of Legends is getting yet another character soon in the form of Taliyah, the Stoneweaver, and as usual she sports an interesting aesthetic and mechanical design. Her passive is called “Rock Surfing,” in that she gains movement speed when traveling near walls. That can stack with the passive for her Q as well. In all she’s heavily focused on movement and crowd control.

Oh, and Riot is ushering her in with an anime-like intro of sorts, showcasing her rock powers. Yep, she ticks enough boxes for me to check out at launch.
