League of Legends: Vex: The Gloomist lane, moves, abilities, skins, and ultimate

League of Legends’ new champion Vex: The Gloomist has been revealed, with this brand new LoL character being debuted in a new trailer today. Vex’s moves, abilities, and lane have all been spotlighted in the new trailer, along with a new skin. Let’s take a look at what they have to offer.

LoL: What lane is Vex: The Gloomist?

Vex is a mid-lane mage, with her moveset being more in-line with a classic mage than any other form of mage in the game.

Riot Games previously said of the character: “[Vex has] moved away from being an artillery mage and is now closer to a classic mage. She still gets annoyed as hell with hyperactive champions dashing all around her, that hasn’t changed one bit. It’s enough to make her get serious and start clobbering all lifeforms full of irritating happiness dashing around her like pesky flies.”

LoL: Vex: The Gloomist moves and abilities

Vex’s abilities were spotlighted in the trailer though have yet to be given official names from Riot, nor do we quite know their inputs. As such, the following is a rundown of her attacks based on the visuals for them, though the input required is subject to change.

Q ability

Vex’s Q fires out a particularly wide spirit being that starts out slow, before speeding up. It has a pretty long range, and seemingly doesn’t need to target enemies.

W ability

Vex marks an enemy before pulling in their shadow, yanking them closer towards her and fearing them in the process. This seems to be an engage move that leaves enemies open to attacs.

E ability

Vex places a portal on the ground that expands, with all enemies still inside it being feared.

R ultimate ability

Vex’s ultimate ability sees her firing out her shadow long-range to an enemy, with her then teleporting to that enemy. She can use this multiple times, which looks to make it an excellent move for capturing an objective and jumping between weak enemies.
