Trailer for Next League of Legends Champion Samira Revealed

RIOT Games have published a trailer video for Samira, the next champion to be added to League of Legends. The character falls into the Marksman category, deals increased damage in melee range and has multiple mobility options with small cooldowns. Below is the trailer and the datamined description of the abilities.

Abilities:

• Daredevil Impulse: Landing basic attacks and abilities different from the previous hit grants Samira a Style stack, up to 6, represented by the grades from F to S beneath her health bar. Samira gains bonus movement speed based on Style grade. Samira basic attacks in melee range use her blade, dealing bonus magic damage based on the target’s missing health. Samira's basic attacks against immobilized enemies will rapidly strike the target 6 times and knock them up for 0.5 seconds. Samira will dash into range if the target is slightly outside of her attack range.
• Flair: Samira fires a shot in the direction of target enemy, dealing physical damage to the first enemy it hits. If the target is within melee range of Samira, she will slash them with her blade instead, dealing physical damage to all enemies hit in a cone. Casting Flair during Wild Rush will cause Samira to slash all enemies in her path upon completing the dash.
• Blade Whirl: Samira slashes around herself twice over 1 second, each one dealing physical damage to nearby enemies, and destroying all hostile projectiles that enter her vicinity over the duration.
• Wild Rush: Samira dashes through the target allied or enemy unit and slashes all enemies in her path, dealing magic damage and gaining bonus attack speed for 3 seconds.
• Inferno Trigger: Samira unleashes a torrent of shots from her weapons, wildly shooting at all nearby enemies 10 times over 2 seconds, dealing physical damage with each shot. Samira is still able to move during this time. Inferno Trigger can only be cast if Samira's current Style grade is S.

It remains unknown when the character will be added to the game. The previous champion – Yone – was introduced earlier this month.
