The next League of Legends champion fills a unique spot on the game’s packed roster. Briar, the Restrained Hunger, has an interesting hook: When she’s unchained and ravenous, the player can take their hands off the keyboard. She’s not much for finesse or fine control, but there’s an obvious drawback: Wwhen she’s hungry, she’ll dive into a full enemy team, under hostile towers, and into other death traps.
