- All-new particles: Chock full of candy and bats!
- All-new sound effects: Passive and ult music have been updated to be more thematically appropriate, aka dark and spooky. He’s also got some evil laughs and screams elsewhere in the kit!

Context & Notes
WIP!1) Here's a clip from Meddler's quick gameplay thoughts for October 5th, with come details on what to expect in the 8.21 PBE cycle:
"Some things we'll be looking at in 8.21
Not a comprehensive list, but a few champs we already know we'll be looking at in 8.21:
- Kai'Sa nerf - One direction is giving her clearer weaknesses. Another is making her upgrades a bit harder to unlock, given the original intent wasn't that she'd unlock all 3 this reliably.
- Tank Pyke nerf - While keeping AD Pyke around its current power level. Potentially involves some degree of kit effect changes (e.g. modifying the HP -> AD effect on his passive plus additional scaling changes?)
- Corki buff - Didn't make it into 8.20, aiming to have it in 8.21 as a result.
OMW Ping improvements in 8.21
We should also have some improvements to the OMW pings in 8.21. The big change is that the sound of the pings themselves will now communicate a couple of extra pieces of info:
- Processing applied to the sound will represent distance between the user of the ping and the pinged location. The further that distance, the more echo there'll be. Basically it's a representation of how long it'll take the pinging player to get there.
- The further the ping is from the listening player the quieter the ping will be played. If someone's pinging that they're on the way to your lane, you'll hear a loud ping. If they're pinging they're on their way to the other side of the map, it'll be comparatively quiet.
We'll also be putting a chat notification of the OMW ping being used back in team chat. Looks like that got accidentally broken at some point when this approach was being developed."
