My theory on the new teasers

Hi all!

My friend and I were discussing the teasers today, and I came up with a theory that I would like to share with the community. Here it is:

Upon seeing the Zed teaser, I thought of 2 different things:

  1. New Champ
  2. Shen rework

I then thought of a theory that combined them both!

Lets focus on the zed teaser for a second. In the teaser, he is being pierced by blue light in his eyes while being surrounded by Cherry Blossoms. Cherry Blossoms are the symbol of Ionia. You know who is from Ionia? Zed, Shen, Sona (the only other officially released to the public teaser by Riot), and Shens dad. Therefore, I think that Ionia will have a major part in whatever ends up happening.

Now, lets look at Shen. His subtitle is "The Eye of Twilight". I immediately focused on the Eye part. As we all know from Zed's lore, Shen's father was killed by Zed. Therefore, he is Dead. Put those together. Shen and his dad practiced the same art, so Shen probably inherited the title from him once he died. Therefore, Shen's dad is Dead-eye. I believe that we have been misinterpreting Deadeye as a sniper. Instead, i believe that it is a clever play on words. Jihn could be the name of Shen's dad, as Jihn is mentioned repeatedly in the coding of the Zed teaser.

This is my theory. Let me know what you think!

Check Sona's champ icon friend. Its almost certainly a new champ and he's allegedly targeting Zed, Sona, Vi, and Garen. My buddy and I were looking into it today as well.

honestly i dont think its shen... i think it might be a new champ mostly because the champs that are being targeted are not affiliated with each other in any way. zed and garen nothing vi and sona nothing
