Renata Glasc makes her way onto the Rift with patch 12.4

The chem-baroness is looking to intoxicate the playing field.

Riot Games has been on the money with their 2022 season promises so far. We already saw Zeri's debut a few weeks ago with patch 12.2 and now, we're getting another new champion for the Summoner's Rift, Renata Glasc. The chem-baroness is finally making her much-anticipated debut alongside patch 12.4, which also features plenty of nerfs and buffs to other champions alongside plenty of new skins.

A total of 17 champions have been affected by patch 12.4 with six receiving nerfs, which includes Zeri. The other 11 will receive further buffs alongside system changes and balance adjustments for the game.

Champions

New Champion - Renata Glasc, the Chem-Baroness

Passive - Leverage

Renata Glasc’s basic attacks mark her enemies and deal bonus damage. Damage from Renata’s allies consumes the mark, dealing additional damage.

Q - Handshake

Renata Glasc sends out a missile from her robotic arm that roots the first enemy hit. She can reactivate the ability to throw the enemy in a target direction, damaging enemies hit and stunning them if the thrown target is a champion.

W - Bailout

Renata Glasc grants an allied champion or herself ramping Attack Speed and Move Speed toward enemies. If the ally gets a takedown on an enemy champion, the buff duration resets. If the ally would die while Bailout is still active, their health is set back to full but they begin burning to death over 3 seconds. The ally can stop the burn by getting a champion takedown before they die.

E - Loyalty Program

Renata Glasc sends out chemtech rockets that shield allies and damage and slow enemies they pass through. The rockets also apply their effects around her on the cast and in an explosion at max range.

R - Hostile Takeover

Renata Glasc sends out a cloud of chemicals that causes enemies to go Berserk, increasing their Attack Speed and forcing them to basic attack anything around them. Berserk enemies prioritize attacking their allies, then neutral units, then Renata Glasc's team, then Renata Glasc herself.

Items

Ally Item Pings are now available!

One of the latest features added into League of Legends is 'ally item pings', allowing them to display the item cooldowns and charges in-game of their allies. This is done by pinging an item's icon in the "Tab" scoreboard. The items displayed will also have a VFX timer to showcase their status, much like Summoner Spells.
