League of Legends is bringing back everything from Butcher's Bridge to OG Viktor

Despite the game's balance feeling pretty good, League of Legends feels like it's in a bit of a weird spot. General hype feels pretty low, gameplay itself hasn't really changed very much despite the switch over to Spirit Blossom and Ionia, and generally, things just feel a bit stale. Season 2 Act 2 is hoping to shake things up, however, with just enough nostalgia to entice OG fans back for a few games, and some new content to pad out the old. There's the return of Butcher's Bridge and a new OG Viktor skin based on his pre-rework base model for us longtime players, as well as a brand new ARAM map inspired by Spirit Blossom. There's a lot going on, so let's break it down Empyrean Pyke style.
