Riot·Apr 21, 2014·3 votes·28,217 views

Twitch’s visual update has snuck his way out of PBE and appeared on live! A new animation rig, along with models, voice work and effects have turned the Plague Rat and his various skins more maniacally noxious than before, while a host of quality of life updates bring the verbose vermin up to speed with today’s champions. Head over to the PBE announce article for the full details.

Bask in Twitch’s putrescence with a special Rat Pack bundle. This flexible cost bundle clocks in at 2835 RP (25% off), is available until April 28, and includes the following content:

Twitch
Kingpin Twitch
Whistler Village Twitch
Gangster Twitch
Vandal Twitch

Is there a way that you can change the name of twitch's ult only for certain skins? While I'll admit Rat-ta-tat-tat is pretty catchy for Vandal and Gangster twitch, I feel that Spray and Pray was a better name in general and should be kept for his original/other skins

JukedYoSocksOffApr 22, 201417 votes

Anyway they can make a new khazix skin???! Been waiting so long Khazix

Vayne BotApr 22, 201441 votes

Diana got a Lunar skin, and Syndra has an Atlantean one on the way. Although there are plenty champs that would appreciate new skins. Like Zac .

This overall VU is AMAZING, but I'm not going to lie that name change on the ult actually really irritates me. I implore anyone to go and play him to listen to his new quotes. A lot of his lines now focus around the themed idea that he doesn't aim very carefully (or at all for that matter).

"Aim THEN shoot, aim THEN shoot"

"Shooting is easy, Aiming is hard.."

"Stand still! my eyes are on the side of my head"

"How do you aim with all this light??!"

Spray and Pray is essentially the exact name for this kind of behavior as well as the background training that leads to its practice (generally speaking little-to-none, which also fits well with Twitch lore). It relates very well to the nature of his ultimate as well, being sort of "suppressing fire" by nature.

. All things considered, spray and pray isn't just some name players are griping about because it's change. It's makes a LOT more sense thematically and quite frankly I'm a little pissed that someone trashed a strong thematic element because someone in the office thought of a pun they thought was cute.

SinisterGoatApr 22, 201419 votes

I still think it's funny people are up in arms this much about the name of one champions ult.... in a video game. Imagine if people cared this much about real problems...

League of RicksApr 22, 201422 votes

Like that'd ever happen

why does everyone ask so much of riot? why cant you guys just leave riot alone and let them do what they want. I understand that feedback helps and all, but consistent criticizing is just not fair. They go out of there way to give us something, and all we do is complain about it? What about riots feelings?! Its not fair for them to work hard on something for us, only to see us nag about it. If this keeps up, they may just stop doing this kind of thing for us
