Patch 26.13 (Pandemonium) is here and it's a big one: Locke, The Ashen Exorcist, joins the Rift as the newest champion, launching alongside the new Broken Covenant and High Noon skin lines. On the balance side, eight champions get toned down, led by Bard, Brand, and K'Sante, while nine pick up buffs, with Aphelios, Draven, and Kai'Sa headlining the glow-up. Last Hit Indicators are also rolling out to Normal Draft, a nice quality-of-life boost for anyone still learning to farm.
