Scheduled to hit the live TFT servers on July 21, the Reckoning: Dawn of Hope midset update features new Radiant items in place of Shadow items. A total of 12 new champions, including Fiddlesticks and Akshan, will also be released, along with several reworks to existing champs. Riot released two gameplay clips today featuring Garen, who received a rework for the midset update, and the new champion Fiddlesticks in action.

There’s only one God-King now and his trait has changed. His new trait, Victorious, gives him an empowered attack dealing 40% of the target’s missing Health as bonus Magic Damage. Give this god your items and watch as your prayers are answered. pic.twitter.com/xBkiGjX0Um

Garen is the only God-King remaining in TFT Set 5.5, receiving the Victorious trait and a new attack that deals 40 percent of the target’s missing health as bonus damage. Fiddlesticks also joins the party with the traits Abomination, Mystic, and Revenant. Fiddlesticks can blink into existence behind champions and is equipped with a short-range and potent ability called Crowstorm.

Surprise! Fiddlesticks makes his debut in your TFT nightmares as an Abomination, Mystic, and Revenant with a short-range but terrifyingly strong ability called Crowstorm. Once Fiddlesticks casts, the storm continues with each enemy that dies in the flock. pic.twitter.com/EPNQxxYUQt
