Hounds' Pursuit (W)

Naafiri dashes at an enemy with her Packmakes, singling out a target, revealing them for 1.5 seconds and slowing them.

Eviscerate (E)

Call of the Pack (R)

Naafiri prepares her grand hunt, which lasts 15 seconds. Naafiri spawns Packmates and empowers them, gaining decaying movement speed. She reveals nearby enemies, gains bonus attack damage, increases the maximum health of her Packmates, and reduces the cooldown of her passive.

Upon first champion hit, Naafiri gains a shield for 3 seconds. Upon first champion takedown, all effects of Call of the Pack are refreshed.

LoL Patch 13.14: New Deathmatch Game Mode

Jump into the arena and face a deathmatch like never before! LoL patch 13.14 will introduce a brand new game mode. Unlike ARAM, which still maintains a 5v5 structure, Arena will be a 2v2v2v2, pitting four pairs of two against one another in several deathmatch-style rounds.

Champions will reportedly progress in power, gaining items, levels, and special Augment powers between combat rounds, which can be used to empower their chosen champion further as the last duo emerges victorious. More details on the Arena mode will be added closer to its release, so stay tuned!
