The newestLeague of Legends Patch 11.19introduced a lot of changes, but the most significant one is the introduction of a brand new championVex. Many people are wondering about how she will impact the current meta of the game.

Will Vex change the meta of League of Legends?

Vex is a very specific champion that will be a great counter to many other champions in meta. She can be used efficiently against many champions who rely on mobility and dashes/blinks/leaps etc. It is all thanks to her kit and her very powerful passive ability called “Doom.”

It grants Vex a charge that caninterrupt dashesof the enemy champion andfearsthem, which is a form of hard crowd control. It is very important because many very popular champions, especially amongst the best players in the world, rely heavily on mobility.Lee Sin,for example, has many dashes in his kit, and his biggest playmaking potential will be influenced by a champion that can stop his plans instantly.

In addition, after last year’s changes to itemization in League of Legends, many of the popular items also offer dashes likeGaleforce,Hextech Protobelt,ProwlersCrawl, and more. Additionally, the second part of the passive marks enemies that perform any mobility action like dash or blink near Vex. Then she can deal additional damage to the champion that she marked. Other than that, her kit is pretty simple with many skillshot abilities and a shield, nothing too fancy.

Considering most of Vex’s abilities are skillshots, she will require some skill and practice in mastering her potential.
