Kukulkan is heading into the Jungle!

On January 2, we’re releasing the Aspect of the Squall, a complete reimagining of Kukulkan’s kit. This Aspect is designed for players who want to get up close and personal, trading long-range poke for devastating "shotgun" burst and aggressive utility.

♻️ NEW PASSIVE: SOUL OF THE SQUALL

Master the Jungle to fuel your power. You now gain permanent Mana from:

  • Jungle Monster kills

  • God kills and assists

  • Synergizes perfectly with Kukulkan's base passive to scale your late-game damage!

🌪️ THE "SHOTGUN" KIT:

  • Zephyr (1): The range is shorter, but the punch is massive. You now fire 3 projectiles in a spread—land all three at point-blank range for a true "shotgun" blast.

  • Slipstream (2): No longer just a speed boost. This ability is now always a dash that steals Protections from any enemy you pass through, making you harder to kill while you shred your target.

  • Whirlwind (3): Forget ground targets. Your Whirlwind now attaches to YOU, following you as you move before exploding in a blast that knocks back all nearby enemies. Use it to engage or to peel for yourself mid-dive!

📅 Release Date: January 2, 2025

Whether you’re a long-time Kukulkan main looking for a fresh challenge or a Jungle specialist looking for a new high-burst pick, the Aspect of the Squall is ready to blow the competition away.

Prepare to dive in. See you on the Battleground! 🐍💨
