Rell, The Iron Maiden is going to be a Tanky Support.
153th Champion
League of Legends’ Twitter Page has released the official information about Rell, The Iron Maiden. With the description: “This heavy-armored battle maiden rides a furious storm of steel into every fight.” Following up with 3 clues gave out by Riot, she has finally appeared.
Ability Revealed
Passive – Break The Mold
Rell attacks very slowly but temporarily steals a portion of her target’s Armor and Magic Resist to deal bonus damage based on the amount stolen. Additionally, she can siphon resistances from multiple different foes to grow extremely tanky.
Q – Shattering Strike
Rell stabs forward with her lance breaking any shields and damaging all enemies hit (damage decreases after the first target). If she has an ally bound with E – Attract and Repel she and that ally recover health for each champion hit by this ability.
W – Ferromancy: Crash Down/Ferromancy: Mount Up
W1 (Can only cast while mounted):
- Rell leaps into the sky and transforms her mount into heavy armor gaining a huge shield that lasts until destroyed or remounting. Upon landing, she knocks up all enemies around her. Rell can cast E – Attract and Repel and R – Magnet Storm during the transformation.
- She has increased durability low movement speed and a movement speed cap while in armored form. After transformation, this ability changes to Ferromancy: Mount Up.
W2 (Can only cast while in armored form):
- Rell rushes forward and transforms her armor into a mount, gaining a burst of movement speed. During her next attack, she charges her target, deals bonus damage, and flips them over her shoulder.
- She has increased movement speed while mounted. After the transformation this ability changes to Ferromancy: Crash Down.
E – Attract And Repel
Rell magnetically binds a piece of her armor to a target allied champion, granting them bonus Armor and Magic Resist while nearby. She can recast this spell to break the bind and stun all enemies around and between her and her bound ally.
R – Magnet Storm
Rell erupts in magnetic fury, yanking nearby enemies toward her. She then creates a gravitational field around her, pulling nearby enemies in for a few seconds. The field doesn’t interrupt her enemies’ other actions.
