In this League of Legends: Wild Rift patch 2.4b update, we’re getting two new champions in addition the routine champion buffs and nerfs, item adjustments, and new skins.
Brand is a mage that can be used in mid lane or as a support in the Dragon lane. Nunu & Willup on the other hand, thrives in the jungle, and ganks by rolling growing snowballs into enemy champions.
New champions debuting in Wild Rift patch 2.4b
Brand, the Burning Vengeance
(P) Blaze
- Brand’s spells light his targets ablaze, dealing damage over 4 seconds, stacking up to 3 times.

(1) Sear
- Brand launches a ball of fire forward that deals magic damage. If the target is ablaze, Sear will stun the target for 1.5 seconds.
(2) Pillar of Flame
- After a short delay, Brand creates a Pillar of Flame at a target area, dealing magic damage to enemy units within the area. Units that are ablaze take an additional 25% damage.

(Ult) Pyroclasm
- Brand unleashes a devastating torrent of fire that bounces up to 5 times off of Brand and nearby enemies, dealing magic damage to enemies each time bounce. Bounces prioritize stacking Blaze to max on Champions. If a target is ablaze, Pyroclasm will briefly slow them.
