The Path of Champions Wiki • Legends of Runeterra
This page contains all changes made to the current iteration of The Path of Champions, it being The Path of Champions 2.0. You may find the older patches further down on this page, while the most recent ones are on top.
V5.8[]
New Champion[]
New Constellation[]
- 5Vi
Game Designer's Note : We thought Vi’s 1st and 3rd star powers were a bit bland, so we are now making them activate whenever you draw a card rather than on round start. This means they will activate at least once per round, like before, but you have the chance to make them happen multiple times in a round by drawing extra cards, which her deck does very well.
