Summoners!

Here at PAX East, everyone’s Eternal Nightmare is the talk of the town. We just completed our demonstration of Nocturne and his groundbreaking new Near Sighted mechanic.

Nocturne is an assassin type character who functions very differently than the traditional archetypes. Unlike a traditional stealth character such as Twitch who becomes personally invisible, or a character such as Nidalee who has special synergy with the brush, Nocturne’s ultimate ability afflicts the entire enemy team with a specialized debuff. This ultimate – dubbed Paranoia – removes the player’s shared vision with allied units, leaving them blind to anything beyond the sight range of their own champion. In this way, Nocturne is able to sow confusion amongst the enemy team, striking quickly and taking down enemy champions while their allies are blind to their need for assistance.

Check out the Nocturne Art Spotlight, the official reveal, and pictures of experiencing the darkness at PAX East 2011!

Gonna have a video of a team being affected by it?

If people are bad at focusing already in solo queue imagine now when they won't be able to share sight with the team.
