With the rise of the elemental dragons, new exotic materials have been circulating the Markets in runeterra.

Lyte has renewed his interest in the summoner's rift and will pay handsomely for any exotic goods provided to him.

Lyte will now spawn inbetween the intervals of when dragon is slain in their pit or when herald is killed wherever the epic monster is slain or randomly on one of the alcoves.

whenever an epic grade monster is killed, they drop a mana scale upon falling which can be bartered with lyte for certain items in lyte's inventory.

The items that can be bartered may be a one time use stop watch, one time use activations of items that such as the locket proc or more rare procs like ohm wrecker or promote! for minions.

Red/blue/scuttle will also drop 1 trophy per kill that can be exchanged for smaller goods at random such as a half filled red potion, a small amount of exp / gold, or a sight ward every 2 minutes.

Supports also receive tokens as they gain milestones for their quest and will gain tokens that they can exchange for the the goods mentioned above for jungler camps.

after 20 minutes, lyte will retreat from the summoner's rift in fear of baron nashor and go home to stock his spoils for the day.


This change is designed to incentivise more people to play jungle / support as they seem to be the most in demand for roles in queue.

It especially helps out the junglers in that it breaks the monotony between farming your jungle, going to a lane, rushing to catch up, contesting, etc. Clearing camps may just feel like a chore that's distracting you away from diving straight into the action on the map. With the shops being available, it'll add an rng element to a jungler's clear, but it will also help junglers who may not be farming optimally to get a lucky roll to catch up on gold/exp.

This also allows supports a little bit more breathing space incase they roam and aids in getting an extra item or two since they tend to spend a lot of money on red wards with the removal of sightstone for other lanes.

Love the idea and I'd love to have a way to test my luck as a jungler for a small boost, especially when playing new champs with the recent changes (im learning talon jng) or if being invaded you can lessen the blow from being down in so much gold/exp.
