As the games industry continues to adapt to the
ongoing COVID-19 outbreak around the world, it seems devs
currently remote working are finding ways to stay engaged with their
games’ communities – and share a little fun, too. League of Legends
senior Champion designer August Browning has posted a funny new idea
for the upcoming Volibear rework – and it’s not quite what you’d expect.
As you might be aware, Juggernaut LoL Champ Volibear is due for a rework sometime this year, following the Fiddlesticks rework, which is now up on the MOBA game’s PBE for testing with LoL patch 10.7.
While it’s expected the update will, like Fiddlesticks’, overhaul all
of the Champion’s abilities, skins, and perhaps even his VO, Browning
has posted an alternative ‘version’ – as Annie’s teddy bear Tibbers.“Day 2 of working from home. This is the rework Volibear needs,” the dev says, with a clip of Volibear’s all-new role in-game. Take a look below – there’s Annie summoning her trusty teddy Tibbers, and out pops the armour-clad Thunder’s Roar. It’s a pretty awesome proposal, even if it doesn’t make it into the live game.
It looks like Champion designer Nathan Lutz is enjoying the idea, too, replying in jest: “Dude! Why would you leak all my hard work like this?”. Browning replies: “S[or]ry buddy, I needed the upvotes.” Well, fair’s fair.
It’s not the only tweak the designer’s made to one of the game’s Champion reworks this week, either – he’s also tinkered with Wukong to make him transform into vanguard Champ Nautilus when becoming a decoy, too. Take a look below:
