 (( Sorry for the late posts guys! I've had a deplorable case of food poisoning over the past two days and I'm just now well enough to leave my trusty toilet. ))


The Winter's Wrath is now upon us!


You can pick up Sejuani in game now at the 975 RP / 6300 IP price point or pick up one of her limited skin bundles at a discounted price.

If you are having trouble deciding just which skin you think looks the coolest, take a look at these skin preview videos from youtubers dancoco808 and Ciderhelm.




Looks like Sejuani is also bringing the cold, cold winds of change with her. This patch is just chocked full of balance changes: Nerfs for Ahri, Graves, Rammus, Riven, Shaco, Skarner, Tryndamere, and Vayne and Buffs for Mundo, Jarvan, Nunu, Vladimir, Volibear, and Warwick. Check out the patch notes below for the deets.
