Does Azir's introduction finally mean the Shurima Patch is coming?

Well, so far we have:

1. Azir.
2. Tons of files for Ascension mode on the PBE, including a custom UI
3. Several minutes worth of additional lines for , and all referencing either Shurima or Ascension.
4. A model update for 's older skins.
5. Even more hints at an ancient Shuriman empire, after all the hints dropped by and the yellow trinket line, which might indicate a retcon for the animal god-brothers (their homeland is Shurima and not some random other planet).

Soooo... fingers crossed. :D

Caw caw, PEASANT.

Skarner was released with the Crystal Scar

Just saying

Agreed

I had the exact same thought! It also seems like dominion might be getting a Shurima-themed VU, since there's been files on the PBE for a sandstorm fog of war.
