The new PsyOps and Championship LeBlanc skins have appeared on PBE servers with Samira during patch 10.19 updated on 2nd September. A new cycle has appeared on PBE servers very recently, patch 10.19, the 2020 League of Legends World Championship update. This update is the opportunity to discover the five new skins on the PsyOps theme. They are for Kayle, Pyke, Viktor, Zed, as well as for Samira, the new champion. Riot Games has also released the LeBlanc Championship skin and the True Damage Yasuo Prestige Edition skin. We will cover the complete 10.19 patch notes here as well as keep it updated with more information.
New Champion Samira arrives to PBE
Desert Rose Samira is one of the worst-kept secrets in League of Legends, all thanks to the data miners and a young reliable Brazilian Streamer. In response, Riot Games formally released Samira on PBE cycle 10.19 (via Surrender@20), along with a handful of skins and content.
As we previously reported, Samira will be the next League of Legends ADC and she looks perfect for SoloQ. The Noxian is not afraid of danger and, in fact, is a fan of high-intensity situations and puts all the cards on the table. Proof of this is his secret mission in the game, which requires scoring an entire combo to assassinate an enemy.
(Note that the champion Samira is not available in the game for the moment. Datamined files have not yet been activated in the PBE game client. Information is still missing and that found at the end of this data mining may change over the next few days.)
SAMIRA Toolkit
Riot has not officially released anything yet. Some of the abilities of Samira might undergo change as she is officially released. But here are the details of her abilities now.

Passive – Daredevil Impulse
Samira increases her rank with each attack on opponents (from E to S) and gains movement speed with each rank. Melee attacks deal additional magic damage based on the target’s lost health. Samira’s attacks against immobilized opponents apply Knock Up and Samira can even jump.
Q – Flair
Samira fires a shot, inflicting physical damage on the first enemy hit. If this ability is thrown towards an enemy nearby, Samira will cut with his sword, also causing physical damage.
Any hit can deal 25% critical damage. If used during Wild Run, Samira will hit all enemies in its path.
W – Blade Whirl
Samira strikes around her for 1 second, dealing damage to enemies hit and physical damage to that hit the second time. Any enemy projectiles that enter the area are destroyed.
E – Wild Rush
Samira advances towards an enemy or ally, slicing through enemies and gaining attack speed. Killing an enemy champion causes the cooldown of the wild run to be reset.
R – Inferno Trigger
Samira can use her ultimate only when she reaches the S rank.
Samira unleashes bursts of gunfire, firing wildly at all nearby opponents for 2 seconds. Each shot deals physical damage and applies life theft. Each shot can deal critical damage.

How to Unlock Samira’s Rant S Emote in LoL?
A few relatively simple actions should allow you to unlock this famous emote, some players having even unlocked it unwittingly, by simply playing their game:
- Kill an enemy with less than 20 HP.
- Obtain a First Blood or an Interrupt.
- Make a kill after using all of his spells.
The question many players have is whether Samira will be able to be unlocked through these emotes, as was the case with Lillia and Sett and their missions, which had given players a token, to be redeemed upon release. Nonetheless, considering how easy these challenges are, it seems unlikely that Samira could be unlocked through it.
Patch 10.19 Release Date- When is Samira coming to LoL?
Now, let’s talk about release dates. Samira will not arrive in patch 10.18 that will be released on September 2. The release will happen on 16 September 2020 with Patch 10.19. This gives you plenty of time to collect Blue Essence and get it before Worlds 2020 because she will not be free. It goes without saying that due to its proximity to the World Cup, we will not see it in the hands of the best players in the world.
To see Samira in the competitive, we will have to wait until All-Star 2020 in case of organizing or one of the regional cups of South Korea and China. Also, in small tournaments organized by the community before the 2021 season begins.

So let us get down to the patch preview of 10.19 that talks about the new balance changes. The information here is currently not complete as we wait for devs to provide us with exact nerfs and buffs. The fear of Akali and Lucian sweeping the Worlds meta has led to nerfs on them meanwhile Nunu and Talon’s changes are removed. Here are all the buffs and nerfs in patch 10.19:

Irelia: R, Barrier damage increased from 125-325 to 125-375. Perimeter damage increased from 125-275 to 125-375.
Among the most dangerous champions are Ashe and Sett, who already received a change in patch 10.18. It will be implemented on September 15 at night, a day that we will also have the Worlds 2020 draw and that you can follow on our Twitch channel.
