In the post, he clarified that they currently have no plans on releasing Wild Rift exclusive champions. FeralPony added that they still have a lot of content to bring over first. However, they are definitely open to the idea of having Wild Rift exclusive champions in the future.

On ARAM Mode, Shopkeeper NPC and Touch Controls

Aside from the topic about exclusive champions in lol WR, FeralPony also answered a few questions in his post;

  • Regarding the ARAM game mode, the devs wanted to make sure if a lot of players are having fun with the game mode before considering making it a permanent mode. 
  • The shopkeeper NPC from the PC version is unlikely to be added in LoL WR as it does not provide additional gameplay and can impact performance.
  • For balancing reasons, Darius’ ultimate is meant to go on cooldown if it is canceled by invulnerability effects like Stasis Enchantment (Zhonya’s) and Zed’s ultimate skill.
  • Touch Controls like the mobile MOBA game Vainglory will not be implemented in LoL WR. The devs believed that twin-stick controls are the better alternative and will keep on improving this control scheme in the future.

FeralPony mentioned that he will continue to answer questions in this manner to make it easier for everyone to scroll through.
