Here are the notes and updates for League of Legends Patch 11.15

Swing into battle with League's latest champion.

Akshan, the Rogue Sentinel is making his debut in League of Legends Patch 11.15.

Recommended Videos

In line with the ongoing Sentinels of Light event, which kicked off on July 8, Akshan is a Sentinel who “swings into battle wielding an ancient weapon of tremendous power,” according to Riot.

A mid lane marksman with a grappling gun, stealth, and a revive, the champion is described as a “roguish assassin” and someone who fits the “let’s-make-this-Lux-playing-fool’s-life-miserable” playstyle.

“We’ve been watching marksmen go mid in pro and regular play for a while, but none of them feel like they belong there,” game design lead Jeevun “Jag” Sidhu said on July 7. “They don’t provide the things that champs designed for mid should, like crowd control or target access. So we wanted to craft an experience that would feel like a distinct assassin style, but also clearly feel like a marksman, and put those two worlds together in mid lane.”

Aside from the new champion, Patch 11.15 also includes a slew of balance changes catered to solo queue and pro play. Irelia, Rumble, and Shyvana are just a few of the many champions up for adjustments.

Here’s the full list of notes and updates for League’s Patch 11.15

Champions

[New] Akshan

Passive – Dirty Fighting

  • Every three hits from Akshan’s attacks and damaging abilities deals a burst of physical damage. If the target was a champion, Akshan also gains a shield
  • After attacking, Akshan fires a second attack that deals reduced physical damage. The second shot can be canceled like a regular basic attack. If Akshan cancels the second shot, he gains a burst of move speed

Q – Avengerang

  • Akshan throws a boomerang that deals physical damage and reveals enemies hit, extending its range each time it hits an enemy. Enemies can be hit once as the boomerang goes out and once as it returns

W – Going Rogue

  • Passive: When enemy champions kill one of Akshan’s allies, they’re marked as Scoundrels. When Akshan gets a takedown on a Scoundrel, he gains bonus gold, all allies killed by the Scoundrel are resurrected at their base, and Scoundrel status is removed from all other enemies
  • Active: Akshan becomes camouflaged for a short duration, or indefinitely while near terrain. During this time, Akshan can see trails leading toward Scoundrels and gains move speed and mana regeneration while moving toward them

E – Heroic Swing

  • Akshan fires a hookshot that embeds in the first terrain hit. While embedded, he can recast to swing around the terrain in the cast direction, firing physical damage bullets at the nearest enemy while swinging. While swinging, he can recast again to jump off in the direction of the cursor and fire a final shot
  • Heroic Swing’s cooldown resets when Akshan earns a takedown on an enemy champion

R – Comeuppance

  • Akshan locks onto an enemy champion and begins channeling power into his gun to store bullets. At the end of the duration or after recasting, Akshan unleashes the stored bullets, each dealing physical damage based on missing health to the first minion, champion, or structure hit
  • Akshan can move normally and cast Heroic Swing while channeling and firing Comeuppance
