Riot Games published today on its official YouTube channel a cinematic of the new champion, Naafiri. She will be the first champion of the “Darkin” breed that the company releases in 6 years! Check below for a link to cinematics and information on everything we know (so far) about the new League of Legends character.
Naafiri: Iron Hounds
Riot plans to add one more champion of the Darkin race to its flagship game, League of Legends. For a long time, all we had information about Naafiri was that she would be a “darkin” assassin facing the Mid lane. We had leaked concept art, but nothing more for a few months.

I recommend you watch the cinematic (it turned out pretty stylish), but by all indications, Naafiri is a Darkin imprisoned inside a dagger, as well as the other Darkins, Aatrox, Rhaast (Kayn), and Varus. But Naafiri seems to be protected by a pack of wolves. We can expect the playable character to be a portmanteau of the wolves seen in the cinematic.
Earlier this year, Riot stated that Naafiri will be a character with a more “basic” skill kit, for players who prefer to focus on the macro-playinstead of reading the long list of character abilities.
Across leaksit is possible that Naafiri will also be added in the Team Fight Tactics (TFT) game, probably a few months after its release in LoL.
community reaction
Both the Brazilian and international community seem to have enjoyed Naafiri’s teaser a lot, I’ve separated some comments below, take a look:
@Mrskeleton121: in a 2-minute trailer I hype myself more than all the dolls of last year. thanks riot
@matheusmenezes3954: What a beautiful cinematic my people I loved that dagger ornament became like an earring Naafiri is very beautiful, in a scary way of course
@GabrielRodrigues-kg5xc: What animation, friends! The horror atmosphere, the montage of scenes, man, it’s been a while since I’ve been hyped by a champ.
@paulovitor616: There are two things I wanted back: A champion trailer focused on terror and mystery, and a non-fairy monster champion.
Did you see, Riot? It’s not that hard to please the community: just go back to releasing monster champions (Seraphine doesn’t count).
Here at Oficina da Net we will continue covering news and the launch of Naafiri, stay tuned!
