Gameplay[]
Summoner spells[]
When playing the Legend of the Poro King, your regular summoner spells are replaced with two new ones exclusive to this mode, 
Poro Toss / 
Poro Dash and 
To the King!. 
Unsealed Spellbook does not allow access to regular summoner spells.
Poro Toss / Poro Dash[]
- "Cast Poro Toss once and sling your smaller poro across the Abyss. The range is way, way longer than you expect. And don’t worry, the poros love a good toss. After landing a hit, trigger Poro Toss again to Poro Dash, flying to your poro’s target. It’s like Lee Sin’s Q, but more endearing. Finally, when your team lands ten Poro Tosses, you summon the Poro King."[1]
- Riot Games does not make responsible for the seemingly reckless use of Poro Toss, if PETA ask, the
Poros are fake
To The King![]
- "When the Poro King is on the scene and your team, activate To the King! to poro-fy yourself and rocket to your liege. It’s like Lee Sin’s Safeguard, but more endearing."[1]
- Riot Games does not make responsible for the constant commitment of magnicide against his royal highness, but it's responsible of Poros injured in the process by the wretched and soulless teams.
Poro King[]
- Main article: Poro King
The Poro King is benevolent and will aid whichever team has summoned him. He can be dispelled, but only to return again when enough favor has been curried with him. As a tanky siege minion, he brings an impressive power boost to whichever team he's aiding.
Players can also feed him with Snax to trigger his special abilities.
New Items[]
Frosted Snax - Shoots a barrage of ice missiles. So cold!
Super Spicy Snax - This is too hot for Poros, and causes the King to spew fire! Fire is hot... don't touch that!
Espresso Snax - So... much... caffeine! O_O The King bounces around, 
knocking back enemies and gaining a 
shield.
Rainbow Snax Party Pack! - Snacks for all Poros! Whee! The Poros get so excited for the Snax that they stampede out, pulling any champions in their path.
Balance Changes[]
All Howling Abyss specific balance changes apply.
Trivia[]
- While playing this mode, each champion is followed by two poros. These poros change appearance when using one of the new poro summoner icons.[1] For the list of icons, go to Media/Icons tab.
- The summoner spell
Poro Toss/
Poro Dash was later implemented on the ARAM mode. The ARAM version spells are called 
Mark and 
Dash.
