Today, Riot Games released Empires of the Ascended, the largest expansion yet for Legends of Runeterra, the popular, free-to-play digital collectible card game.
Empires of the Ascended brings 110 new cards to Legends of Runeterra, including nine Champions and a new region, Shurima, a vast, mystical, ancient, brutal desert-like land that was once home to the most powerful empire on Runeterra which collapsed long ago. The new archetypes introduced in Empires of the Ascended are extremely unique, with level 3 Ascended Champions, deck manipulation mechanics, and high-impact combos.
Legends of Runeterra: Empires of the Ascended’s 110 Cards Feature:
-
Nine new Champions: Azir, Jarvan IV, Kindred, Lissandra, LeBlanc, Nasus, Renekton, Sivir, and Taliyah.
-
A new region, Shurima: The empire of Shurima stands strong once again in Empires of the Ascended, and revolves around a theme of ascension and inevitability. The power of the great Sun Disc can raise the powers of Shurima’s Ascended champions by unbelievable magnitudes… but only if it can be restored from ruin.
-
Three New Keywords: Countdown, Predict, and Reputation.
-
New Lab – United Front PvP: Players will need to work together to achieve victory in these 2v2 tag-team battles.
-
Event pass: Play games to earn Sun Discs and unlock more rewards, including Shurima-themed Guardian variants, Emotes, Card Backs, Prismatic Cards, and more!
-
New cosmetic items: Players can now unlock emotes and card backs featuring new champions as well as Shumira-themed board.
“We’re so excited to finally be launching Empires of the Ascended! The team put a ton of work into this patch: an entirely new region, keywords, amazing level up cinematics, our first 2v2 Lab, and more. We can’t wait to see what kinds of awesome new decks and plays come out of this new expansion!”, said Mark Sassenrath, Design Lead for Legends of Runeterra’s Empires of the Ascended expansion.
