League of Legends MMO Gains World of Warcraft Vet Brian Holinka as Principal Game Designer

Riot Games' League of Legends MMO project, announced in December 2020, has bolstered its development team with the addition of Brian Holinka, a veteran of over a decade at Blizzard, where he notably served as lead combat designer on World of Warcraft. This move follows recent hires of other World of Warcraft alumni, underscoring the project's continued development despite the departure of its initial lead, Greg Street. Holinka's expertise is expected to significantly impact the game's combat design.
