Welcome Briar, the newest League of Legends champion with an unquenchable thirst for friendship and blood. Don’t let her cute and innocent exterior fool you, summoners; there’s a reason she’s chained up in a huge pillory that keeps her from revealing her true nature.

Briar makes an explosive entrance into the world in a new trailer that was just released, escaping from her confinement and feeding on an unnamed prey. She meets the janitor right away and assumes that he or she is a buddy because they both appear to be trying to leave the building. However, she makes a horrifying effort to save her new “ally” as an armored guard approaches and pushes him aside.

Although it is depicted in an animated manner, Briar loses control of herself, escapes from her pillory, and changes into a vicious monster that devours every foe in her path, dissecting them and feeding off of them as she deftly hops from one adversary to the next. She keeps destroying her adversaries before finally breaking through the facility’s front gate with her new friend, who appears afraid.

Prior to realizing that the janitor is a friend, she is about to devour him. However, as soon as she understands that he is a friend, she immediately changes back into her more composed state, and the pillory locks onto her hands and chains her once more.

She drives Jarvan IV into a wall after landing and stuns him with a powerful area-of-effect move before slashing every opponent to a gray screen. She is ultimately similar to other diving champions like Nocturne and Vex, employing her rapid reflexes to dive through the backline and isolate a squishy victim for a meal. Fans should certainly get a feast ready for this ravenous hunter soon even though her formal powers have not yet been announced.
