Nemesis Duel: Bad Blood
A new nemesis duel for Renekton and Nasus will also be added in the game. This event can be triggered when;
- Both champs are at or above Level 13
- Neither champ has dealt or taken champion damage within 5 seconds
- Both champs are alive
- Both champs are at least 16 units apart
A Nemesis Duel is not guaranteed to activate every time these conditions are met, but when it does, everyone in the game will know through an in-game announcement. A champion wins the event when the opposing champion dies within 3 seconds of taking damage from the winning champion.
Nasus and Renekton’s Nemesis Duel is Bad Blood:
- If Nasus wins, (1) Siphoning Strike strikes all enemies in an area
- If Renekton wins, he will remain at maximum Fury during (Ult) Dominus
