As in we get them or just the reveal? I thought the Blood Moon skins were our Lunar ones lol.

They've been revealed for like a month now lol
Firecracker Jinx, Warring Kingdom Katarina and Nidalee

although they're getting a bit loose with the Warring Kingdoms name now. Not even sure who those skins are supposed to represent. With the others it was easy to tell (Zhao Yun Xin Zhao, Lu Bu J4, Guan Yu Tryndamere)
I still find Guan Yu Trynd weird. Should have been Xiahou Dun

Ah right, I just assumed those were new skins rather than themed. As mentioned, the Dynasty Warriors skins are a bit all over the shop now.

I don't think those are supposed to be Romance of the Three Kingdom skins. From what I read Nidalee is based on a chinese deity.
Katarina doesn't really look like any of the Wu officers so I guess she's just supposed to be Katarina in spats, which is fine by me.

Stop liking what I don't like.
Apparently it can work, but I've seen it fail a few times. I have not yet had a game where it worked out well.
NCR Redslayer
NeoGAF's Vegeta
They just nerfed his damage output. So he needs to be fed a little bit more until he gets back to his assassinating self.

Don't Fizz players also have to land that shark?
Yeah, if they want to be able to assassinate anybody, they have to hit the shark. His burst damage is what took the big hit, but if they land the shark they get a boost to damage output and he can chew through someone quickly.

On the plus side games can end really quickly. I played a 20 minute game followed by a 27 minute game: two games in an hour.
Otherwise it's just a coin flip to see what kind of team you end up with.

hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
This is true misery.
It's a long way to the top (if you wanna play LoL).
I like how there's no slide out of gold, it's just a big middle finger from Riot saying, "yeah, well, we want you back down here for...reasons."
Yea, it really sucks.
Statistically if you can play at a gold level, you should be able get there -- it just may take patience and 100+ games for everything to even out. I think it took 400 last season, not sure about the season before.
I -could- have spent those 300+ hours of my life better, though.

Do you have a link for this? I was going to buy Jinx and Nidalee skins but if they're going to be on sale...
Then again it makes sense. The lunar revel skins for Xin and J4 were on sale at some point too.

Heads up for those looking into the Lunar Revel bundles, the Lunar Revel Mega Bundle doesn't include the two new ward skins, nor the new summoner icon. I was looking into getting it just to round off the last couple skins I don't have from these sets, and noticed them missing.
No more fast R recharging too, though they lowered the cooldown a ton to compensate. Maybe it's equivalent.
Some of those things sound even MORE annoying if that were possible (stuns? super slows?) than the already annoying "enjoy your unblockable future damage".
With max cdr you get 36 s cd ult now.
Before, with max cdr and spamming W you could get it down to something like 30 s, so it's pretty much the same except you can use your W for other things.
Zilean will probably become fun now.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist that thinks Riot always buffs champions before expensive skins...but why would they nerf her right before DJ Sona? That would seem REALLY weird if it gets released at the same time. I guess her win rate is still 51-53% which is high enough for Riot to want to bring her down, but I think some people have mentioned that she may not be very rewarding to play.
For reference, here is the article you are presumably referring to:
http://www.surrenderat20.net/2015/02/210-pbe-update.html#more
Here is the information:
*edit* Leezard's post is also a good point. Sources are good so we can check these things! *edit again* I dunno.
"[Note: These are reverts to the changes seen in the 5.3 PBE cycle. Additional Context available in the 5.3 notes]"
So, it's back to live stats. She got buffs on PBE before.
wait. according to patchnotes she got that buffed in this patch due to some bug fix, and its reverted on PBE? its a bit weird.
5.3 patchnotes, nobody posted em right? http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/patch/patch-53-notes
i don't have the link but im pretty sure

This is great
DeadNames...this one is for you.
new zilean looks pretty cool, skillshot q is already a great change, tho the amount of cc is a bit worrying. like an aoe stun as a basic ability and a 99% slow/speedup that lasts 5.5s is pretty insane
sounds to me like zilean will be an absolute beast, like literally everything about him is getting buffed
basically they're testing dj sona on pbe using an old version of her stats and they committed that change to live by mistake
so just ignore sona pbe stats for a while

Lol yeah.
minor Ahri nerf. No Jarvan nerf. No change to Nidalee. QoL improvement for Kat.
Anyone else terror right now that needs a buff?
How about a new Terror for 5.3?
Kennen.
Just re-read the Zilean changes. I recall Riot saying they were kicking around ideas for a far away Zilean rework back in S3. At this is what we got. I guess he seems more interesting to play as a support, but time mage. I despire his time bombs purely out of concept laziness.

Unless you want straight up Jojo bullshit then rewinding / fast forwarding time is pretty much what a League time mage will amount to.
