Usually April Fools in games are something outrageously OP/UP/Gamechanging, Aurelion is fairly in the middle pack as a character.
(And there are ppl playing him in the PBE :P)
I could bet a literal Riot would happen at Riot's headquarters because they were waiting for Ao Shin and didn't get it, so they were supposed to make it up with Aurelion Sol instead.
"We here at Riot Games have decided to rename Aurelion Sol to Ao Shin just as you got accustomed to saying Aurelion Sol. We think this would be better for the playerbase :^)"
I would fuvking flip out
