New Champion "Ambessa" Released!

PR TIMES

My place in this world—I have earned it. Bled for it.

Ambessa Medarda, a Noxian general who appeared in Arcane Season 1 as Mel's formidable and domineering mother, is now available as the 169th champion in Patch 14.22! Ambessa is the matriarch of House Medarda, which holds immense power and influence in Noxus. As both a general and a warrior, Ambessa is a shrewd tactician who is ruthless and fearless in battle.

Passive - Drakehound’s Step

"League of Legends" Official Website

When Ambessa casts an ability, issuing a move or Attack order will cause her to dash after the Ability finishes. Casting an ability also gives Ambessa a charge, which increases her attack range and speed. Attacks consume a charge to deal additional damage and restore Energy.

Q - Cunning Sweep / Sundering Slam

"League of Legends" Official Website

Ambessa sweeps her blades forward in a semi-circle, dealing extra damage to enemies at the edge. If you hit an enemy, it readies Sundering Slam.
Recast: Sundering Slam: Ambessa slams down her blades, dealing bonus damage to the first enemy hit.

W - Repudiation

"League of Legends" Official Website

Ambessa gains a shield, braces herself, then slams the ground. If she braces herself from damage by an enemy champion, large monster, or structure, she does more damage with her slam.

E - Lacerate

"League of Legends" Official Website

Ambessa whips her chains in a circle, damaging and briefly slowing enemies. Using Drakehound’s Step will trigger an additional strike.

R - Public Execution

"League of Legends" Official Website

Passive: Ambessa gains Armor Penetration and her Abilities heal her.
Active: Ambessa becomes unstoppable and blinks to the farthest enemy champion in a line. She suppresses the target before slamming them for damage and a Stun.
