Additionally, several URF missions this year are tied directly into the Worlds 2021 missions & quests. While your favorite champions may still be target banned for the majority of games, it still allows you to select from a pool of your best or most enjoyable champions all the time! Better yet, unlike ARURF last time, a game’s win does not simply rely on RNG in champ select.


Like the last URF release, we will get the ability to choose our champions, almost a completely different experience compared to ARURF, where champions are randomized. The fast paced game mode also increases the importance of good synergy, with a strong duo lane being able to easily carry any URF game. While champions are generally balanced in the normals summoners rift, the URF buff completely changes the strength dynamic of various champions. Aside from champions banned during champ select, all champions are available for play in URF. Each player will gain the ability to ban one champion during champion select, leading to a total of 10 bans. Riot has currently re-released the original URF instead of ARURF, meaning you get to choose your champion. Riot will balance these champions through a combination of stat and mechanical ability changes.

Unlike previous renditions of URF, Riot has opted to balance champions closer to their real win rate in Summoner’s Rift instead of a flat 50%. For even more action, the cannon allow players to teleport to their half of the map and get into fights faster, while all minions grant 40% more gold compared to Summoner’s Rift. Some perks of this buff include 100% mana cost reduction, 300 ability haste and increased attack speed. URF is a special game made based in summoner’s rift, where all players receive the Awesome Buff of Awesomely Awesome. © Riot Games What is different about URF this year?
