The League of Legends Balatro homage I thought I'd never see again is back, thanks to a major MOBA preservation win

The Demon's Hand.

Earlier this year, League of Legends developer Riot unveiled its latest minigame, a Balatro-style homage called The Demon's Hand, as part of a character update. I enjoyed it at the time, but bemoaned the fact that despite how accurate it felt, it would inevitably be consigned to the ether when Riot moved on, rendering it unplayable after just a few weeks in the client. But all of a sudden, it's back from the dead, along with several other similar projects.

Early this morning, League of Legends wiki stalwart Spideraxe said the community-run site was now able to house motion comics and minigames, meaning that players could now "experience them all indefinitely." The Demon's Hand was part of that initial rollout, along with Jinx Fixes Everything, which was added to the client late last year as part of Riot's in-game celebrations around Arcane Season 2.
