Wild Rift Samira: Abilities and Release Date

Wild Rift players want to know more about new champion Samira with the 3.3b patch. Samira's playstyle, similar to Katarina's, is built around wiping out the entire enemy team. In this article we'll cover Wild Rift new champion Samira's abilities and release date, the champion introduced with the new patch.

Who Is Wild Rift Samira?

Samira was a street performer as a child. When her village was raided by armed strangers, everyone around her was killed. All Samira could do was run. The disappointments and experiences she lived through changed her greatly. But she wasn't angry at those strangers — after everything she'd been through, she was more afraid of losing anything else. She joined the Noxian Warband to support her family, and her natural physical talent there turned her into a skilled warrior. That's exactly how her journey as a fighter began.

What Are Wild Rift Samira's Abilities?

• Passive (Daredevil Impulse): Samira chains non-repeating abilities from rank "E" up to rank "S". Each increase grants extra movement speed. It also lets both her ranged and melee basic attacks hit enemies with bullets or her blade. Samira balances airborne enemies that reduce her movement speed and extends the CC duration.
• Flair: Samira fires with her guns. If enemies are close, she cuts them with her blade.
• Blade Whirl: Samira slices the air, creating a circle that deals damage and blocks projectile attacks.
• Wild Rush: Samira dashes through an opponent, dealing magic damage and gaining bonus attack speed. Takedowns reset Wild Rush's cooldown.
• Inferno Trigger: Samira unleashes a barrage of 10 attacks against all nearby enemies over a short duration. Each hit critically strikes and can heal her. She can only use her ultimate once her passive reaches rank S.
