Rell is one LoL champion most forget about. That's why Riot is giving her a Mid-Scope update! Let's go over her abilites and all the changes Riot is implementing in LoL Patch 13.11.
Rell has not been a champion worth playing for a long time. Thankfully, she is getting some love from Riot with her very-own Mid-Scope Update and it's looking to be a pretty big one that will finally look into some of her major problems.
Riot has recently started doing more of these gameplay updates which will address a champion's in-game problems and abilities. With Rell being so unpopular it's no surprise she is also getting one. Finally, her new abilities have been revealed though so we can check out everything we know right now.
LoL Rell Mid-Scope: Updated Abilities
Rell is going to be getting quite a lot of updates to her abilities. Riot have looked into every aspect of her kit and given it some form of quality of life change, so let's go over the exact change list right now and what Riot have done.
- Pick up the perfect League of Legends-themed gift for your friend!
All Ability Updates
Base Stats
- Attack Speed: 0.55 ⇒ 0.625
- Attack Speed Growth: 0.02 ⇒ 0.015
- Armor Growth: 4.2 ⇒ 3
- Magic Resist Growth: 2.05 ⇒ 1
- Movement Speed: 335 ⇒ 330
Rell now has much better attack speed which is going to feel great. She also had some nerfs to her base stats, to make up for some of the ability upgrades she received.
Haw have you been faring with all these updates?
Passive - Break the Mold
- Passive Duration: 4 seconds ⇒ 5 seconds
- Armor and Magic Resist Shred: 10% ⇒ 2.5%
- [NEW] Stacks On Stacks: Armor and Magic Resist shred now stacks up to 5 times per target. All of Rell’s abilities will also apply a stack of her Passive
- Minimum Armor and Magic Resist Steal: 5-12 (based on level) ⇒ 1.25-3 (based on level)
- [NEW] Death Proof Magnets: Rell keeps resists for the full duration of the Passive buff, even if the target dies
- [REMOVED] Rode Off: Passive no longer deals bonus magic damage on hit
- [REMOVED] Into The: Hitting a new target no longer refreshes the Passive duration on all targets
- [REMOVED] Sunset: Passive no longer applies to minions
The passive now stacks and is a part of every single ability. This means that if she can land a full combo on multiple targets she is going to be one of the best tanks in the entire game.
Q - Shattering Strike
- Stunning Strike: Q now stuns all targets hit for 0.75 seconds
- [REMOVED] Who Needs Heals Anyway: Q no longer heals Rell or her allies
- Range: 685 units in front of Rell, 150 behind Rell ⇒ 520 in front of Rell, 220 behind Rell
- Cooldown: 9/8/7/6/5 seconds ⇒ 11/10.5/10/9.5/9 seconds
- Magic Damage: 70/115/160/205/250 (+50% AP) ⇒ 60/95/130/165/200 (+50% AP)
- Cast Time: 0.35 seconds ⇒ 0.5 seconds
- [NEW] Jungle Rell?: Deals 250% damage to jungle camps
- [NEW] A Swing and a (Hopefully) Hit: When Rell casts Q, she moves 100 units forward as she takes a step to swing
- [REMOVED] All The Damages: On old Rell, Q did reduced damage to enemies after the first, and only applied passive to the first enemy hit. Now it does full damage and applies passive to all enemies hit
With this updated Q, Rell is going to be able to CC enemies in fights and give her more flexibility. She can combine this ability with her W for combos onto the back line, or use it as a frontline ability to break any shields, since the shield break is still part of the ability.
Happy Rell Midscope PBE day everyone! As promised, here's the full changelist with some annotations explaining the reasoning.

- [REMOVED] Mounted Bonus Movement Speed: Rell no longer gains bonus passive movement speed while mounted.
- Initial Movement Speed Bonus: 25/30/45/40/45% for 3.5 seconds ⇒ 30% that rapidly decays over 1 second

With these changes, her dismounted form is much better. She does not have a cap on her movement speed anymore and she can also gain movement speed buffs while dismounted.
These changes make her dismounted form very reliable for fights.
E - Attract and Repel
This is a brand-new ability with her old E being taken out of the game completely.
- [NEW] Passive - Mounted Alacrity: Rell gains 5/8/11/14/17/20/24/28/32/36/40/45/50 move speed while mounted at levels 1-13, reduced by 50% in combat.
- [NEW] Active - Full Tilt: Rell and an ally charge, gaining ramping Movement Speed up to 15/17.5/20/22.5/25% over 3 seconds, this is doubled to 30/35/40/45/50% toward enemies or each other. Additionally, Rell’s next Attack or Shattering Strike explodes in an area for 25/35/45/55/65 (+30% AP) (+2/2.5/3/3.5/4% Maximum Health Damage).
With this new ability, Rell is going to be able to charge into a fight alongside her ally. You can charge in with your new E and W. The stun from the former E has been moved to her Q.
R - Magnet Storm
Riot did not make any changes to Rell's ultimate. The only thing they added was that you can now gain stacks for her passive with her ultimate as well.
Rell Mid-Scope Update Release Patch
Rell's Mid-Scope has been released in LoL Patch 13.11. This means you can get the reworked Rell on June 1, 2023. Ivern's Mid-Scope has been changed to a mere buff since players and the team was not happy with the proposed Mid-Scope changes to the champion.
Along with these changes, Riot is also releasing the DRX World Championship skins which will feature six champions.
