Riot Games mistakenly reveals Aurelion Sol’s rework: All the abilities of the ‘new’ League of Legends champion – League of Legends

After having withheld for weeks information about the news of Season 13 of League of Legends, Riot Games You have made a mistake when revealing the news. Though the rework of Aurelion Sol It was not supposed to be shown until January 8, as the game client marks, many players claim to have already had access to the character’s official promotional materials. This is attested by the videos uploaded by some of the most reputable content creators in video game history. Even those who have never succumbed to the leaks have now shared all the details about the character thinking that it was a surprise from the developer.

All abilities from Aurelion Sol’s rework

Although the information is now restricted in the game client, We already have access to all the data on all the abilities of the Aurelion Sol rework. Anticlimactic end to a job that has lasted for years and that a Riot Games employee started as a personal project for only two reasons: he loved the character and he wanted to thrive in the developer, for which he wanted to improve as a programmer. Regardless of the circumstances, the gameplay of the new character has come to fruition, with a very interesting spell kit that we proceed to review.

• Passive: Aurelion Sol’s abilities extract Stardust from the enemies they damage, increasing the power of each of his spells.
• Q – Breath of Light: Aurelion Sol channels his draconic breath to breathe starfire for a few seconds, damaging the first enemy hit and splashing other nearby foes. Every second the breath remains channeled on an enemy increases the damage dealt and gains more stacks of stardust. This ability only collects Stardust from champions.
• W – Astral Flight: Aurelion Sol flies above the terrain towards a target direction. In this state, you can cast other abilities. Activating this spell resets Breath of Light’s cooldown and allows it to be cast without a duration limit, also increasing its damage. The cooldown of the ability is reduced when an enemy damaged by the champion in the last few seconds dies. Stardust increases the maximum range of the spell.
• E – Singularity: Aurelion Sol summons a black hole, damaging enemies and slowly pulling them into its center. This ability generates Stardust every time an opponent (champion or not) dies in the center of the hole or for every second a champion is within its area of ​​effect. The center of the black hole executes enemies below X% of their maximum health. Stardust increases both the health at which a champion is executed and the size of the spell.
• R – Meteor Shower: Aurelion Sol launches a star against the earth. This impact deals magic damage and stuns enemies while granting the champion Stardust for each champion hit. Getting enough Stardust causes the ability to evolve.
• R (Evolved) – Descent from Heaven: The star summoned by Aurelion Sol increases its area of ​​effect and damage, lifting into the air and stunning enemies hit. Upon impact, a shockwave spreads out from the edges, damaging all enemies in a large area of ​​effect. Accumulating Stardust increases the range of the ability and its area of ​​effect afterward.

Aurelion Sol has finally learned to play hide-and-seek!

Although both the theme and the appearance of the character have been preserved, the truth is that the abilities have undergone great changes. Riot Games has linked the evolution of spells to the achievement of a resource, Stardust. This will prevent him from being too threatening during the early stages of the game and, above all, that he can use his mobility ability to move long distances. The excess of impact in the first levels was one of the aspects that made the champion a threat to the status of League of Legends to a greater extent and, removing the problem from above, has opened a lot of space for Riot Games to design a new magician. which promises to rival Veigar in terms of scaling.

When does the Aurelion Sol rework come out?

Unless Riot Games gives us a very unlikely surprise by introducing Aurelion Sol to the official servers imminently, we will have to wait a couple of weeks to enjoy him. Around next Wednesday, January 11, he should be available on PBE as part of the Patch 13.2 cycle. If there are no major shocks, it will be when said version is introduced on the official servers when the champion can be used. According to the update schedule, the Patch 13.2 will be released next wednesday January 24, 2023.

All told, the information about the release date of the Aurelion Sol rework is an established theory in Riot Games history and no information that has been made public (willingly or by accident) yet.
