League of Legends just updated their public beta environment with a huge patch. Tons of news skins, new items, and pumped up Juggernauts. Wait, Juggernauts you say, who are those? This is what Riot says about their beefy champs:
Nasus. Darius. Garen. Skarner. When you think brute force, these champions should come to mind: powerful, durable, immobile and melee. They’re League’s hulking titans who, come late game, turn into super tanky carries who’ll pretty much destroy anyone foolish enough to get in their way. The prototypical juggernaut is Nasus, the classic one dog late game wrecking machine. The archetypal raid boss can only do his thing when he’s in melee range, and his lack of gap closer means he often has to rely on allied speed boosts like Sivir’s On The Hunt or well-aimed crowd control like a Morgana binding to get close, but once he does, he unleashes the power of his trademark Siphoning Strike.
These melee tanks are ones who can soak up the damage and also dish it out, and they need a bit of love, and boy did they get it. Check out this gameplay update on the League of Legends official site! You have some news skills for Garen, Darius, Skarner and a completely remade Mordekaiser! Mordekaiser has a amazing new interacting with dragon once we hits level 6! There is a lot to take in, especially for Skarner and Mordekaiser, as they have the heftiest changes. For a quick run through of the new Skarner in the jungle, head over to see a video of stonewall008 on the pbe server. He does a quick test to see how Skarner fairs in the wilds.
