Twitch has been getting some minor love in Solo Queue as a jungler as of late, but nothing in competitive play for a very long while. Riot does not approve.

If you've ever taken Twitch, the Plague Rat out for a stroll on summoners rift you'll know how frustrating playing him can be. As of right now the enemy can typically beat Twitch by just being big blocky nuisances, since he has to be even more careful in most fights than traditional ADs. In an upcoming patch, Twitch and his Deadly Venom mechanics will be getting a rework.

Abilities

- Deadly Venom (Passive): Twitch’s basic attacks infect the target, dealing true damage over time.

- Ambush: Twitch becomes invisible for a short duration and gains Movement Speed. At the end of this effect, Twitch gains Attack Speed for a short duration.

- Venom Cask: Twitch hurls a cask of venom that explodes on contact, slowing targets in the area and applying Deadly Venom.

- Expunge: All nearby enemies secrete Twitch's Deadly Venom from their bodies, dealing damage for each stack.

- Spray and Pray: Twitch closes his eyes and rapidly fires his crossbow, quickly spraying powerful poisoned bolts ahead of him.
