4.5.3 Update Notes (NOW AVAILABLE!)

"There were concerns that it could impact their ability to challenge less flattering references to LoL characters in the future."

I'm afraid I don't really understand this wording. Does this mean that they didn't want a SG character making a reference to LOL? What does "less flattering" mean in this context? :'0

I think it is just a lawyer team avoiding precedent. If they let something cool slide then they are at a legal disadvantage if something uncool happens. Like if some sketchy developer adds an Annie (LoL) reference in their gross (something offensive like it is racist, pornographic, ultra violent, etc.) game they could whine in court "But they let SGM do it!"

Sometimes you gotta defend your IP against good things, like palette homages.

The jig is up.
Rift Just won't be the same again.
That was my Rift v1.0 secret weapon, back when every battle was determined by a few hundred points mostly derived from blockbuster finishes.

NEW FIGHTERS

Fresh from the oven, just in time for the Holidays -- enjoy some piping hot brand new Fighters!

Silver: Gang Green
Gold: Time Thief
Diamond: Beast King
Diamond: Star Shine

2021 prediction: does this mean we can look forward to everyone getting a 3rd Diamond, 5th Gold, and 4th Silver?!

I don't think event milestones have ever been released prior to the start of the event.

Season's Beatings is going to be 10 days long (+2 days to last year's 8 days), which is simultaneously exciting/terrifying (or pure hype). Normal holiday PFs are 3-4 days with a 100 million milestone mountain. I wonder if that guaranteed-diamond Frosted Diamond Relic will be waiting at the top of a 200 million summit.

Beat me to it. I was gonna say the same thing!

Frosted Relic is a given at being a reward. Either a milestone or Top ranking reward (or both) is the question.
The Nightmare relic got a lot of outcry for being too lofty of a 3-4 day PF milestone for many players. And we haven't see anything at that level since. But with the length of Season's Beatings, I can see 100M+ rewards being added.

We're in maintenance mode?

To be honest, Riot has a terrible track record with this stuff. If I recall correctly they've been accused to stealing real people's likeness at least twice. This is not made better when you consider their whole roster was picked up from Dota / Warcaft 3.
 
"Fixed an issue where players would lose their fights if the game closed unexpectedly when starting a fight."

I can hopefully begin to make some meaningful progression in prize fights again, thank you.
 
Will we be able to pull the 4 new variants from regular relics or are they limited to the ornamental and frosted diamond relics, at least until a future patch?

The four new Fighters are currently exclusive to the Ornamental Relics and Frosted Diamond Relics. I'll make that a bit clearer in the notes.

AH I see! As sad as Annie's palette being removed is, I understand the precautions taken. Thank you for clearing that up!!
 
I didn't get any new Annies from opening my saved relics. I didn't even get any new fighters at all; all repeats. Got 4 or 5 Diamonds from opening everything but every diamond was a repeat (and not even a shiny repeat...). In fact, no shinies at all.

The Cosmic Premieres are still in the CoC!

Just got one after a refresh, and I'm not sure they're still supposed to be there after they left the Relics tab.

I know I'm a petty person, but I would have gone for a reference to Annie's Dota 2 counterpart: Lone Druid.

I'm actually sad to see the pallette being gone, even though I'm not a LoL player her design is very cool.

Why not Dark Willow?

I'm really sad, too. The actual pallette is terrible. DOTA 2 rlz!!!

I didn't get a shiny either. This makes over 500 relics and no shiny (@Lililira please note this in your data collection lol)
I did get some new golds (which I prefer) and one diamond but it's useless. Going to wait to open my dia relics because I was the star butterfly variant. Sorry you had such bad luck friend :<

For 4.5 I opened 189 premiers, 30ish elemental, 33 golds, 16 silvers, 7 diamonds, 6 jackpots, and 2 legendary relics. 0 shiny fighters. @Lililira feel free to add to your data...

Thanks folks, but since shiny odds varies based on the rarity of the fighter pulled, I can only really add hard data if I know how many of each rarity fighter you pulled. I can add the Silver / Gold / Diamond relic results though, as well as any data if you remember the approximate number of Gold / Diamond fighters pulled ( I take the smaller number on approximations ), which are especially helpful since those are so hard to get ahold of. Some approximations are fine, but I'm trying to keep the calculations as close to hard numbers as possible.

I need some time to finish opening my relics so I can tally up my own 4.5 data and add it in, but adding up everything from my 4.3 thread plus the rarity relics / diamonds you've shared, here's the current numbers:

2 out of 400 Bronzes: 0.5%
3 out of 179 Silvers: 1.68%
0 out of 104 Golds
0 out of 29 Diamonds

(Note: as mentioned, all of these numbers have some approximate values added in.)
 
Why not Dark Willow?

Mainly because I'm kind of dumb and didn't think about her ><

But yeah she could be great and already has a pet. OTOH if i were to recomend a pallette it would be Rylai and her doggo.

How? How do you guys open so many relics? I understand how you can get them but for the love of Gaben I have no idea where do you fit so many fighters. I'm at 459/450 and it takes me days to level up enough bronze and silver fighters to make space to even open a few relics. I have around 50 relics and I don't think I'll get to open them all unless I can grind an entire weekend.

I guess I could burn 1k theo in collection space but that may only make matters worse.
