New Champion "Deadeye" to Have a Blind in His Kit?

Valor Bot··1 votes·5,854 views

Whether this mysterious Jihn Deadeye will be a new and upcoming Champion in League of Legends is still largely a mystery, but if we're to entertain the idea for a bit, do you guys reckon he will come with a blind in his kit? The teaser images seem to suggest this:

  • Something has taken over Zed's left eye.

  • Notice how Zed's eyes are no longer glowing.

Not to mention his name and/or title is "Deadeye," which is very much fitting for a character with a blind.

Taking a look back at the Preseason Q&A from a few months ago, there's this as well:

AzurAngelic: Teemo is the only champion with a blind now; do you think Blind is a good mechanic? Would you prefer to find a suitable alternative for Teemo in the future or keep it as his signature ability, or do you see it being placed on more champions in the future?

Meddler: We don't have any plans to remove blind from Teemo and I'd imagine will at some point look to use it on at least one other champion. Would want to improve the visual/audio feedback for the blinded player to help them play around the effect before doing so though.

Thematically, a blind seems to make sense.

make the champ red, give him two swords...and perhaps a regen like mundo's ult.

And can't forget the smarmy comebacks...the toilet humor and maybe dancing poros as s/he ults.

I really don't like the emphasys on flowers though.

I don't want it to end like the Pisces Saint of Saint Seiya.

"deadeye" is a slang term for an extremely good marksman, usually used in the old cowboy days when people were still suing revolvers, this new champ might be a fun one too. I heard he's a ranged assassin

Also should point it out, Teemo isn't the only one with a "blind". Although he's the only one with a homing/targeting one, graves also technically has one even if it's an AoE in a small radius. Graves

Graves, Quinn, and Nocturne have pseudo-blinds that reduce vision in an area (or globally in the case of Nocturne), but not true "blinds" which nullify auto attacks.

Tahm in a way has a swallowing blind since you can't see a damn thing while in his stomach.

Plus you get covered in slobber.

the Sona screen shows her with a shot to the throat... maybe there is a silence too

we all know Sona cant talk, so this new Deadeye champion, or Jihn may be a villian, because he may have been involved in the incident that caused Vi to quit the gang that she jinx ekko, and who knows who else were in and in taking sona's voice, have no clue about Zed or Garen though, maybe it was what caused Zed to kill his master (read in lore), this is one thats more crazy about Garen, but maybe this is why he wasn't able to kill or beat Katerina . Just a theory.
