Riot just added BUFF SHARING! - and it's AMAZING!

I’m part of the official League Partner Program with Riot Games. You can read about the program here:

Riot: " we are buffing ivern because no one plays him"

Also riot: literally reusing iverns mechanics for buff sharing on all junglers

[Fandiril]

they even used iverns buff sharing thing on the ground

[NickyBoi]

Ok hear me out, what if Ivern now extends the duration of shared buffs? Would add a bit more incentive to pick him considering every jungler has one of his signature abilities now

[antonisnicolaou]

So basically works exactly like Iverns. Also important question: does Ivern still has the buff sharing quotes? “Sharing is caring, says the dang Beatle”

[Duarte_GB]

Make ivern share 2 buffs now that would be funny riot

[joseph]

I love these changes during pre season, so we have all the time to adapt. It would be a really stupid thing doing in mid season. Thanks riot once again!

[bojias]

I like how riot has an unique characther in the jungle that noone plays. They decide to make him even worse with a midscope update and make one of his unique ability base kit for all heroes. Yeah sure why am I playing ivern again?

[MrMarblesXecution]

Ivern should share his buff to the whole team now, global sharing

[medium]

Riot make wild rift for testing a lot of things before pbe, imagine

[Ursata]

Ivern should share the buff with all allies who come pick up the buff. That way everyone wins when Ivern's in the jungle.

Finally! They has this in Wild Rift and I found it a game changer, I could not believe we didn’t have it in the League.

[CyWasHeree]

Even less of an incentive to play Ivern, buff sharing was honestly one of the most unique hooks he had gameplay wise and it really played up the fantasy of a jungler support champ... Guess that fantasy is now on everyone?

[CoffeeMonster]

been playing on wildrift and i noticed that this actually helps the jungler a lot preventing his red and blue from being stolen by teammates. or at least not do it as often anymore.

there are pros but there are cons as well...in wildrift you can actually see the buff orb if it's not taken yet in the fog. so you don't need to face check it to confirm if it already got cleared by the enemy jungler. Or idk, maybe it's not a con😂😂

[marcus]

Were getting closer to also implementing Wildrift boots upgrading into an item as a mechanic.

[michaelkang]

Love the countdown for the buff expire lol. Good choice in music

[aarontheshadowwolf]

I love how music perfectly matched with buff orb disappearing

[ginismyspiritanimal]

I know buff sharing from Wild Rift and its honestly really nice, wont have these "But Im the jungler so I take the buff" moments

[mineit]

1:23 the music lines up perfectly here

[greenhat]

This has been in wild rift for a while, good to see them adapting it to league

[WanganAsura]

"Hey, I have a great idea to test. What if we introduce buff sharing? The jungle clears a buff at a certain amount of stacks, then someone else can pick it up as well?"


"Holy crap bert. This is an amazing idea. It's so innovative. You deserve a raise and probably will be promoted to lead champion designer coming up with this concept."
