From those champions, the first 17 were released during the second week of its Alpha test. This is a generally big roster for a test build, forecasting the future of League of Legends. Moving on to Singed and Zilean which were released in Alpha’s first ever patch. The next ones up until Nidalee were released in small numbers up until December in patches that made the game smoother and more interactive week-by-week. Who would have thought that Riot Games once released champions in small monthly patches? Thankfully we don’t have to deal with so many releases in a year.
