Continued Kai'Sa Testing

Our newest champion, Kai'Sa, Daughter of the Void, continues testing on the PBE! Today's update brings her in-client lore entry:

"Claimed by the Void when she was only a child, Kai'Sa managed to survive through sheer tenacity and strength of will. Her experiences have made her a deadly hunter and, to some, the harbinger of a future they would rather not live to see. Having entered into an uneasy symbiosis with a living Void carapace, the time will soon come when she must decide whether to forgive those mortals who would call her a monster, and defeat the coming darkness together - or simply to forget, as the Void consumes the world that left her behind."

New Emotes

Three new emotes are now on the PBE - Kissy Pengu, Fizz Taunt, and Goodbye Zoe:
