Riot Games has announced the next League of Legends champion and it is a new support character, Renata. The Chem-Baroness will be a destructive asset to the bot lane as she can “resurrect” allies and have opponents hit their teammates with her ultimate ability. Is this an insane kit for a support champion? You bet it is.
Let’s take a look at Renata’s ability kit in League of Legends:
Passive – Leverage
Renata Glasc’s basic attacks mark her enemies and deal bonus damage. Damage from Renata’s allies consumes the mark, dealing additional damage.

Q – Handshake
Renata Glasc sends out a missile from her robotic arm that roots the first enemy hit. She can reactivate the ability to throw the enemy in a target direction, damaging enemies hit and stunning them if the thrown target is a champion.
W – Bailout
Renata Glasc grants an allied champion or herself ramping Attack Speed and Move Speed toward enemies. If the ally gets a takedown on an enemy champion, the buff duration resets. If the ally would die while Bailout is still active, their health is set back to full but they begin burning to death over 3 seconds. The ally can stop the burn by getting a champion takedown before they die.
E – Loyalty Program
Renata Glasc sends out chemtech rockets that shield allies and damage and slow enemies they pass through. The rockets also apply their effects around her on cast and in an explosion at max range.
R – Hostile Takeover
Renata Glasc sends out a cloud of chemicals that causes enemies to go Berserk, increasing their Attack Speed and forcing them to basic attack anything around them. Berserk enemies prioritize attacking their own allies, then neutral units, then Renata Glasc’s team, then Renata Glasc herself.
On release, Renata will come with a new type of skin line, the Admiral Glasc, where Glasc is her last name. Take a look at her basic and skin splash art:
According to Surrender@20, Renata will be available for testing on the League of Legends PBE in the 12.4 cycle. Until then, we can only wonder what strategy opportunities she’ll open up with her unbelievably versatile ability kit of hers.
