A New Champion Approaches: Rumble, the Mechanized Menace Posted by Average Gatsby on Thu, 2011-04-21 14:45
Lore:
Rumble, the Mechanized Menace
Even amongst yordles, Rumble was always the runt of the litter. As such, he was used to being bullied. In order to survive, he had to be scrappier and more resourceful than his peers. He developed a quick temper and a reputation for getting even, no matter who crossed him. This made him something of a loner, but he didn’t mind. He liked to tinker, preferring the company of gadgets, and he could usually be found rummaging through the junkyard. He showed great potential as a mechanic. His teachers recommended him for enrollment at the Yordle Academy of Science and Progress in Piltover, where he may very well have become one of Heimerdinger’s esteemed protégés, but Rumble refused to go. He believed that Heimerdinger and his associates were “sellouts,” trading superior yordle technology to humans for nothing more than a pat on the head while yordles remained the butt of their jokes.

New Skins Now Available: Cottontail Teemo and Battleborn Kayle Posted by Average Gatsby on Mon, 2011-04-18 11:25
Happy Monday, Summoners! Celebrate the start of a brand new week with a pair of exhilarating skins.
Despite his adorable outward appearance, League Champion Teemo has the soul of a battle tested warrior. To accentuate this fact, we have decided to put him in a bunny suit and replace his poisoned mushrooms with painted eggs. Be extra careful next time you see Cottontail Teemo hop around you in-game.
On the other hand, there was never any doubt that Battleborn Kayle is all business. An ornate suit armor and a great big sword are all she needs to be the ultimate harbinger of justice.
