Snow is finally coming back to Summoner\u2019s Rift. On October 31, 2016, Riot posted a video on Twitter showing the Summoner\u2019s Rift map covered in frost and snow. There are Christmas candles everywhere, wrapped gifts next to the Blue Sentinel, and a few Poros even Baron Nashor is wearing a little Santa hat to join in the winter festivity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">[youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=R2r5ZgjR6wE]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">The Winter Summoner\u2019s Rift update is going to be a part of Snowdown Showdown 2016, a seasonal event in League of Legends that commemorates the Time of Snowdown. Aside from the map updates, limited legacy skins will be released. Last year, we got Snow Day Bard, Snow Day Gnar, and Snow Day Syndra. There will also be limited edition holiday runes, festive summoner icons, and winter-themed ward skins. Gifting will also be available for players to freely give skins, RP, or champions to your in-game friends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">During Snowdown Showdown, players will also be able to play a seasonal featured game known as \u201cThe Legend of the Poro King.\u201d It is a 5v5 blind draft game set on the Howling Abyss where the primary goal is to knock down the enemy team\u2019s nexus with the help of some Poros and the legendary Poro King.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">For long-time League of Legend players, the last time Summoner\u2019s Rift turned into a winter wonderland was in 2011. The Snowdown Showdown version of the map was first introduced in 2009, featuring a landscape covered in ice and snow with the river frozen. However, in 2012, the map disappeared and didn\u2019t return to the game ever since. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">That\u2019s why to see it back in the scene and all revamped makes Snowdown Showdown 2016 more exciting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Let\u2019s look at some of its screenshots:<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"Screenshot of snow poro league of legends aligncenter wp-image-8555 size-full\" title=\"Screenshot of snow poro league of legends\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowergaming.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/snow-poro.jpg\" alt=\"snow poro league of legends\" width=\"628\" height=\"633\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"Playing league of legends snow showdown blue sentinel aligncenter wp-image-8556 size-full\" title=\"Playing league of legends snow showdown blue sentinel\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowergaming.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/snow-showdown-blue-sentinel.jpg\" alt=\"league of legends snow showdown blue sentinel\" width=\"628\" height=\"631\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"Playing league of legends snow showdown dragon aligncenter wp-image-8557 size-full\" title=\"Playing league of legends snow showdown dragon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowergaming.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/snow-showdown-dragon.jpg\" alt=\"league of legends snow showdown dragon\" width=\"628\" height=\"631\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"Playing league of legends snow showdown map aligncenter wp-image-8558 size-full\" title=\"Playing league of legends snow showdown map\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowergaming.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/snow-showdown-map-1.jpg\" alt=\"league of legends snow showdown map\" width=\"628\" height=\"629\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"Playing league of legends snow showdown map screenshot aligncenter wp-image-8559 size-full\" title=\"Playing league of legends snow showdown map screenshot\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowergaming.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/snow-showdown-map.jpg\" alt=\"league of legends snow showdown map screenshot\" width=\"628\" height=\"627\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">As of today, there are no details as to when the winter update will be coming to Summoner\u2019s Rift but expect it to hit the PBE this November.
