Chamber
  • Trademark
    • Cost increased 150>>>200
    • Charges reduced 2>>>1
    • Audio range increase

Riot Stated:

“Right now, Chamber’s Trademark outperforms other Sentinel tools in both reliability and power, which feels inappropriate given the amount of defensive combat tools Chamber has spread across the rest of his kit. We believe Chamber’s identity is defined by his unique weapons and defensive combat mobility, so we are decreasing his level of global flank protection/information and increasing counterplay on a single premium trap. This means Chamber will have to make a choice based on if he wants to play selfishly around his Trademark, or place it to help his teammates instead.”

COMPETITIVE UPDATES

  • Party Lead Transfer — You can now change the lead of your party
    • The current party leader can right-click the player name they want to transfer the responsibility to, and choose “Make Leader” in the drop-down menu.
