League of Legends is constantly coming up with new content to keep things fresh in the game. True to form, the game has announced that “dark support” champion Renata Glasc will make her way to LoL soon. Renata is set to be the 159th champion introduced in the game. Riot Games has dwelled into her storyline a bit on their official site. Today, we will discuss the backstory, abilities as well as the release date for Renata in League of Legends.
Who Is Renata Glasc?
The Chem-Baroness is the latest LoL support champion coming to the game. As per her backstory on the official Riot website, she is Zaun’s wealthiest chem-baron and the founder of Glasc industries. Glasc industries use Chemtech to create weaponry as well as cosmetic products. While she had a rough start in life, Renata scraped and clawed her way to the top. She has built her power by tying everyone’s interests to her own. Riot released an introductory trailer for the character, giving players a brief glimpse of the world with Renata Glasc.
