League of Legends V7.16

General

New 'Enemy Vision' ping

• "Enemy ward here" has been added as a keybinding option in the "Communication" section of the in-game Hotkeys menu!
• This ping has no default binding.

Skin Splash Portraits

• The champion's portrait—as it appears to the player in the central portion of the UI—is now updated to use the portrait of the currently equipped skin. This does not affect the minimap nor what other players see.
  • Mega Gnar will use his base portrait for all skins. This may change.
  • Shadow Assassin and Rhaast will use their base portraits for all skins. This may change.

In-Game Performance

• We've made a bunch of performance optimizations! You should experience better frame rates across the game, particularly during teamfights and around giant herds of minions.

Spectator Indicator Cleanup

• While many UI indicators (the blue/red circles and lines) need to be super eye-grabbing for normal gameplay decisionmaking, a lot of them are adding too much visual noise for Spectator. This cleanup removes some of the less important ones.

Champion Select

• The skin selection menu will now pop up as soon as you've locked your champion. No more waiting until the draft phase is over.

Free to Play Champion Rotation

• The Free to Play Champion rotation will always be 10% of the current champion roster. As of V7.16, that means 14 champions, up from the longstanding 10.
