2022 is over and it’s time to check out what is in store for us in 2023. What champions will we be receiving and what updates does Riot have planned for us?
The champion roadmap gives us insights into what Riot has planned for the Rift in the coming months. This time around we’re getting a CGU, ASU and two new champions that we are aware of. So let’s check out everything Riot has revealed thus far.
Check out our Guides for some of the newest League of Legends Champions:

Who is the Next League of Legends Champion?
The next League of Legends champion to be released is going to be none other than a new support champion. Not too much has been revealed yet, but we do know that this champion is going to be male. Many also believe them to be a child, with Riot referring to the support as ‘cute’.
This champion will be using fire to heal his allies with Riot also calling him the ‘fire healer’. So maybe a friend for Annie and Nunu to play with on the Rift, right? We also know that this champion will come from Ixtal, a region that has been almost forgotten by Riot since the release of Qiyana.
When Will the Next Champion Be Released?
This new champion will release early in 2023. There are two more champion releases before him though with Ahri’s ASU, as well as Aurelion Sol’s CGU just a bit ahead of him. But it seems like Ahri’s ASU might drop with the first patch of the 2023 season, and ASol following shortly after so we could see this cute support sooner than we might think.

We are getting some major updates in the coming months, with multiple Mid-Scope Updates and much more:
Aurelion Sol CGU Release in 2023
Aurelion Sol and his CGU will be released in early 2023. Riot already showed off some interesting new abilities that this late game battle mage will receive.
He is going to be a mobile mage and still be able to fly, but at least it is fixed and he will fly in various directions now instead of just straight ahead.

Unfortunately, his CGU got pushed back once, but according to the Aurelion Sol’s main discord, where Rob «Riot KingCobra» Rosa stated that the CGU will drop very early in 2023.
Darkin Assassin Coming in 2023
Riot has been getting complaints that players want more Darkin champions in the game. This goes to show that more and more lore is important to a player’s interest in a champion. Reav3 explained in the Champion Roadmap of August 2022 that they would be releasing a new Darkin champion.
Not much was revealed, but we know that the champion might not be as human as we might think, with Reav3 mentioning a ‘who’ or ‘what’ is holding the darkin weapon – which by the way is the epic dagger you see in the header image above.
In some, now deleted tweets, after the reveal of the Darkin dagger champion, it was also revealed that this champion would be female.
So many are expecting a female dog type champion to be making their way onto the rift, but this has not been confirmed yet.
Which Champions Were Released in 2022?
Renata Glasc and Zeri Releases in 2022
The first champion of 2022 was none other than the new Marksman, Zeri. She has received a multitude of nerfs to her kit already and she is extremely strong, especially in pro play as well, but she is also very fun.
If you’re interested to learn more about her, make sure to check out our champion guide video! You’ll be able to master her in no time.
The second champion released in 2022 was none other than Renata Glasc, a strong-willed chem-baroness who owns the underground city of Zaun and you play her the same way. She brought a whole new unique crowd control ability to the game called Berserk.
Renata Glasc is easier to pick up than Zeri, but we also have a guide for you, so you can truly understand how her unique abilities work.
Bel’Veth Released in 2022
Bel’Veth was supposed to be the new monster champion, but Reav3 has noted that while Bel’Veth is considered a creature or monster, she is not the actual monster champion the team is working on. She was released in LoL Patch 12.11 and has taken the world by storm, but if you’re disappointed, don’t worry another Monster champion is on the way, though you’ll likely have to wait for 2023 for them.
Nilah Released in 2022
A second bot lane champion was released in 2022. Nilah is a unique melee bot laner with quick and fun gameplay. With Nilah, we have entered a whole new continent in the east. With the Riot MMORPG being made, adding new regions will make the world of Runeterra even more vast and unique.

K’Sante Released in 2022
The final champion of 2022 was none other than the top lane tank/fighter K’Sante. He is a champion with a high skill ceiling and a lot of skill expression and we expect him to make life a living hell in the upcoming 2023 pro season.
When will the Skarner Rework Go Live?
Skarner was voted to be the next champion to receive a VGU by the League of Legends community. Riot has been busy perfecting the Udyr rework which went live earlier in 2022 and therefore have not revealed much of what Skarner could be like come 2023.

It has been revealed that we won’t be getting a lot more VGU’s for champions so we expect Skarner to be the only one to receive a visual and gameplay update in 2023. We will have to stay patient to find out more about this unique jungle champion.

The next LoL champion is going to make his way into the bot lane. During the August 2022 Champion Roadmap, it was revealed that there were two new champions in the works, one of which being a Darkin while another was a male enchanter from Ixtal.
While during the stream it seemed like the Darkin champion would be the next to be released, a few things have changed during development and it seems that the next new LoL champion is going to be none other than the support champ in the bot lane. So let’s go over what we know of this new character on Summoner’s Rift.

What Role Will the Next LoL Champion Have?
As already mentioned, the next League of Legends champion is going to be a support champ.
This new champion is going to be the first male enchanter in the support lineup according to the August Roadmap in 2022.
In 2022 we received Renata Glasc, who has been an incredible pick both in solo queue and pro play, and it seems like in 2023 we will be getting another enchanter in the bot lane. The last time we got a tank support was Rell in 2021, but she is already on the list to receive a Mid-Scope Update since her kit hasn’t resonated with players.
Get familiar with the upcoming patch! Here is a quick rundown of the most important info:
New Enchanter Support Abilities: What We Know
In a recent interview for Riot China a few hints were dropped for the upcoming healer in League of Legends. It seems like they will be young, since the devs kept calling him ‘cute’ and ‘little healer’.
He will also be using fire to heal his allies.

Since the champions released in 2022 were on the more difficult scale for gameplay, the new enchanter support will be much easier to play with Riot having decided to make them much more simple to understand and master.
When Will The Enchanter Support Be Released?
According to the sane dev interview with Riot China, it was revealed that the champion would be released sometime in early 2023. Before the release of the ‘cute support’ we will be getting Ahri’s ASU, as well as the long-awaited Aurelion Sol CGU though.

So don’t expect the bot lane enchanter to make his way onto Summoner’s Rift within the first few patches of the 2023 League of Legends Season. After the male healer we will be receiving the newest Darkin as well.

Riot Games unveiled the roadmap for the next champions and shared the details of the 2023 season for League of Legends. Ryan «Reav3» Mireles and Matt «Phroxzon» Leung-Harrison talked about the upcoming changes on a YouTube blog. We have collected the main details for you. nine0005

Authors of LoL are satisfied with the implementation of ideas with partial processing of character skills.

nine0006 K’Santi, Pride of Nazuma is the next champion in LoL
The next character in LoL will be K’Santi, the Pride of Nazuma.
The champion will be the tank for the top lane. According to the story, the character defeated a huge predator in the desert and made a crushing weapon out of its skin and bones. Due to the magical properties of the animal, the artifact can transform from a mace into the fangs of a beast. This is probably a description of one of the champion’s abilities. nine0005
K’Santi’s release date has yet to be announced. Reav3 previously clarified that the new tank should appear in the game shortly after the release of the updated Udyr, which is scheduled for August 24th. It should probably be expected in patches 12.17 or 12.18, which will be released on September 8 and 21, respectively. nine0005

Apparently, the release of the changed character is scheduled before the end of 2022. Other features of the dragon can be found on our website. nine0005
New Darkin Killer
The first champion of the 2023 season will be an unnamed Darkin Assassin. Like the rest of the race, his soul will be imprisoned in weapons. In the case of a beginner, it will be a dagger. There are no other details about the new character yet. nine0005

Interface changes in the 2023 season
In the new season, the signal system will be reworked. The wheel will receive additional points that will help coordinate actions with allies.

Chemtech Dragon
A previously removed dragon will return to the game with the start of the off-season.
The Soul of the Himtek Dragon will now reduce incoming damage and increase damage when health is low. The Chemtech Gorge will buff the plants on the map with new features. For example, Seer’s Flower will speed up champions when moving towards detected enemies, while Explosive Cone will knock back further. nine0005
Previously, Riot Games shared plans for forest changes in the 2023 season. They want to make the role more attractive, making it easier for newcomers. The authors will also add an item to the game that will summon a pet. He will help with clearing out camps and in lane battles.
