Neeko Ability Changes Leaked
Neeko is one of the less-played champions from League of Legends.
Her design and lore are perfect. However, her kit and abilities fail to hold up against the current meta.
However, her new leaked abilities try to change that.
So, let's take a look...
Passive - Shoma Essence
- Neeko's Attacks deal additional magic damage. Every third attack, Neeko's next three attacks happen as one but each only at 60% effectiveness and Neeko gains 10% move speed for 1 second.
Q - Blooming Burst
- Neeko throws a seed that blooms 3 times dealing magic damage. The last bloom also deals a % of mission health as magic damage instead and affects a larger area.
W - Shapesplitter
- Neeko and her closest ally in range briefly slip out of sight, granting invisibility. Neeko disguises herself as that ally for 3 seconds and projects a clone that lasts for 3 seconds. Neeko, her ally and the clone gain 20% move speed for 3 seconds. When the clone expires, collides with an enemy champion or is hit, it turns into a Blooming Burst.
R - Pop Blossom
- Neeko wins up with Shoma Essence over 1.5 seconds, causing a burst dealing magic damage and applying to stack 33% slow to nearby enemies hit for 1 second every 0.5 seconds. For the last burst, Neeko leaps into the air and deals magic damage instead.
Changes to Neeko's Kit in League of Legends
Her passive will be the ability that sees the biggest change to her kit. It is very similar to her W passive.
However, her W will also see some huge changes happening too.
The invisibility for allies will really improve her engage and mean she can give some great buffs too.
