New Champions
Patch 4.3 in Wild Rift introduces 3 new champions: Nilah, Vladimir, and Hecarim. You can read more about their release in Wild Rift here.
Champion Reworks
Janna and Annie will be getting some changes to their kit, which while not fundamental will help those champions be more consistent in fights.
Gameplay
The Wild Rift dev team is introducing 11 new runes in Patch 4.3, helping players make their builds even more customizable. On top of that, keystones will no longer be bound to specific rune paths.
In addition, we find some changes to Scryer’s Blooms , which will now reveal a fixed area with a bonus area at the end of their range. To help with vision in the map even more, scoring an inner turret kill will now spawn a vision Poro for the enemy team in order to help them bounce back from the vision loss.
Speaking of bouncing back, bounties are coming to Wild Rift granting the losing team with bonus gold for striking down enemy structures.
In terms of items, the dev team introduces some changes to support items while introducing new boot enchants.
New Game Mode
According to David Xu, Wild Rift product lead, a new game mode is coming to the mobile game that will merge ARAM and Ultimate Spellbook into one, giving players yet another way to chill after a lose streak in ranked.
Soul Fighter Event
Alongside other Riot Games’ titles, Wild Rift is also getting a Soul Fighter event, featuring a 1v1 game mode to test your skills, a Wild Rift-themed mini-game and
Ranked
Moving on to Ranked, we see for the first time the featured skin for the next season, Glorious Basilisk Jarvan IV.
To top that, we’ll get a new rank above Challenger, the Sovereign which will push players to new limits and will depressurize the previous tiers, something that was a big issue in recent seasons.
Finishing off, Wild Rift 4.3 patch will introduce some changes to Legendary ranked, with rewards and quality of life changes.
