Updated on June 22, 8:41 p.m. (GMT+8): Improved title accuracy.

The beast has been unleashed, and she is ready to devour everything that comes her way.

Naafiri, the newest addition to League of Legends’ champion roster, breaks the mold as the game’s first full canine champion that doesn’t transform. Unlike Elise, Nidalee, and Bel’Veth, and other humanoid champions, Naafiri embodies a true creature, earning her the nickname “Darkin doggo” from editor Kenny “KARNIFEXLOL” Cameron. Naafiri hails from the race of fallen god-warriors in Runeterra, sharing kinship with Aatrox, Varus, and Kayn.

Riot Games assures players that Naafiri’s assassin kit is designed for simplicity and ease of mastery, offering ample mobility, substantial damage, and even a touch of healing.
