Another 3 week Cycle - Also Champion Sneak...

[quote=JunSupport]Zombie apocalypse, it always has to lead to a zombie apocalypse. Yorick won't be joining us for the end of Season 1... 3 week cycle FTL. Or is it 4 weeks? I'm not all that into e-sports. [QUOTE=Tamat;9703426]Summoners! The end of Season One is approaching fast, and between the Season One Championship at DreamHack and E3, there’s an awful lot to do here at the Riot Office. Additionally, Orianna was an extremely exciting and edgy new champion, and we want to take the extra time [color=yellow]to ensure that the next champion will be just as groundbreaking[/color] before we turn them loose on the Field of Justice. For these reasons, we’ve decided to take a bit of break from champion releases and balance changes until after we return from Sweden following the Season One Championship. As we draw closer to these events we will be releasing more previews of the exciting content that will be coming sometime after our end of season break. [color=yellow]This will include Yorick, the Gravedigger[/color] and several more champions along with some exciting new features for PvP.net. Stay tuned for more information as our coverage of E3 continues.[/QUOTE] See what they did there? http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=821206 [QUOTE=Average Gatsby;9700617]The true sign of a master is when you’re able to impress everyone with your execution of a skill that might otherwise be considered mundane. So it’s probably quite safe to say that in order to dazzle anyone with your skillful shoveling, you’re going to have to be rather good at it. With this in mind, allow me to introduce Yorick, the Gravedigger. In addition to being more adept in the art of entombment than any who have come before him, he makes a point of keeping good company… or at least ravenous undead company. One of those two. [I]Special Note: We’ll be behind closed doors at E3 showing off a few of our upcoming champions, including Yorick and his host of undead friends. But don’t worry: Everything we’re showing at E3, we’re reproducing here on the League of Legends website! Stay tuned for more details during E3.[/I][/QUOTE] Art suggests a new pet champion. Pets ftw. :D Something to mess with besides a clone, ghost, or bear. http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=820978 [img]http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/attachment.php?attachmentid=189586&d=1307496848[/img][/quote]

[quote=Trophycase]Can't say I complain if they are taking more time to balance and perfect the champions, if not, THEN I'M MAD! Also, new features and several champs sounds good.[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]Alas, poor Yoric. I hardly knew ye.[/quote]

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK]Have a feeling he will be similar in some aspects to Forsaken Archer in HoN, where after slaying a minion she gets a little undead zombie pet thing that attacks what you attack :3 also, he is gonna be on a 3 week, right? So like 2 more weeks, after Dreamhack, I assume?[/quote]

[quote=caucheka]what? that was what sylvannus did in wc3, when she was forsaken.. another thing hon copied but anyway, i don't think we'd get that. i mean we already have mordes ghost which is like that..[/quote]

[quote=Atarios]Yorick is also the name of the best bliztcrank custom skin on leaguecraft.[/quote]

[quote=JunSupport]Someone's custom skin. The ghost arms are wicked. Wish he were a real champion. [img]http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/attachment.php?attachmentid=189888&d=1307522539[/img][/quote]

[quote=Atheb]does this skin have sth to do with upcoming yorick? the graphik doesnt really look like him. nonetheless looking forward. 3 weeks no problem for me as i have to study^^[/quote]
