Can we have more information about this guy?

(EDIT: I did a champion concept for him here: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/tX0BKyiy-x-141-the-vigil-naut) http://www.cgmeetup.net/home/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/League-of-Legends-Ekko-Seconds-6.jpg I absolutely love this dude. it was first shown in the Ekko trailer: Seconds. He is basically like a giant Frankenstein monster with some cyborg things going on. (Or Hitler on steroids don't know)

Even if he share a similar theme goin on with Urgot, i think this dude's design is enough original to be his own thing in the game. I'm pretty sure he is from Zaun since that's the plae where all these things going on, and it would be absolutely great to see him like this badass Juggernaut from Zaun steamrolling through everything.

You could say it would be kinda like a Sion clone, but Sion is more of a full tank, and we do not have any Juggernaut from Zaun. He just look too fking cool, just work on him please http://41.media.tumblr.com/18b0cd635563ed327b51fe79a7df8bc0/tumblr_inline_no6z26ofID1rlfwiz_500.png

If i remmember correctly, he's an enforcer for one of the piltover owned companies in Zaun. Never had a real name, was called hexa-thug or something in script.
I think a sion skin for him would be dope. Giant arm acts as (and maybe even transforms into) the axe. Prob couldnt be a champ though as he occupys a space already covered by urgot and sion.

And thus, WAAARGHbobo spoke, and Ekko trailer dude was named Hexa-thug, and it was good.

Also, is it bad that I sometimes read your name as "WAAAARGHobo"?

That's how I read his name.

Ha Yeah thats fine. joke works just as well. Hobo is not < clown.

A sion skin based on the guy sounds pretty cool(He could use that huge arm for his ult).

Maybe a bioforge skin?

Would support this idea. I mean... His last skin was Warmonger Sion - 07/18/2011. That's almost 5 years!

Well Sion is a champ that atleast i hardly ever see but i think a new skin would be a possibility to make him played more often again. Sion

Thjankmyou for the Red post. I agree he could be a Sion Skin (but then it would contradict the trailer since he is not Sion) i also thing that Gameplay wise you could do quite a lot of fun stuff with him as a stand alone champion. Because after all we don't really have any champion like that.

To me he feels like Bane of Batman that he feeds off Venom to beccome an unstoppable beast.

And if Urgot when he gets reworked is a bit different from now, this dude could automaticallly have his own identity.

Actually, that wonderful bit of Ekko-fodder was called a "Vigil-naut". WAAARGHbobo is correct about his employment.

Would love to revisit an Ekko story at some point in the future, once my plate clears up a little. When that time comes, I will do my best (but most likely find another antagonist to play with. Think: Who would hire someone like a Vigil-Naut, and what would they do when VN tells them how he was defeated by a punk kid -- one who looks like he'd lost six fights in a row -- who knew how to expertly dismantle his favorite punching arm?

kagepaladin1 votes

well i could see viktor/singed hiring him maybe mundo hence the arm and i could see a little skit of ekko breaking into viktor's laboratory and walking into (like physically walking into him then looking up and seeing a beefed up vigil-naut) guarding the place. epic fight scene ensues which ekko constantly rewinds time, maybe a little side thing where viktor opens the door and stuns ekko then a rewind and he manuevers vigil-naut in front of the door right when it open's causing him to punch viktor making viktor laser him, destroying him again in the process, then ekko uses his little dash move goes behind viktor and takes what he needed to upgrade the device on his back to increase how far he can go back to try saving his friend. (what is the device called btw? (very rough estimate haven't worked out how he would escape viktor though i figure tf could make a cameo appearance telling ekko where to get the item, right after he finds out graves busts down the door to get tf, prompting tf to ult out. screw it making a separate post of this

I'd like to see Ekko interacting with Zac. They seem like they'd get along well.

I approve of the usage of the -izzle in your name.

ExecutorDill1 votes

An enforcer called Hexa-Thug? wtf that's sooo contrast.

Well he looks more like a criminal to me. As an enforcer I could see why he'd get into scrap with Ekko but as a thug he could also have some problems with him if it's about a disggreement in a heist or something >.> if Ekko is that bad xD

333lom1 votes

Well, well. Looks like the City of Progress isn't as morally clean as we thought. If the rich Piltie from Ekkos' comic doesn't have anything to do with this company, than that means greedy Piltovians have more than one tentacle in Zaun; the place where they can do all the things forbidden in their native city-state.

Tesla Effect4 votes

He is a Vigilnaut, biologically enhanced human/cyborg. This kind of splicing is a common practice in the Zauns underground. The one from the Seconds Trailer was hired by an unknown benefactor to kill Ekko.

RiotWAAARGHbobo5 votes

Yeah vigilnaught was the "name." (But everyone just kinda called him "arm guy".)

I alredy see the champion title for that:

"Mr. X, The Vigilnaught"

Sounds awsome to me

While I also really like the design of this dude,I doubt that he has any chance to get into the game(at least not as a champion,maybe they could make a Zaun-map-skin and use him as one of the jungle-monsters)

The thing is that while he looks cool and also rather different,he doesn't bring much new to the game.Pretty much every champ tries to fill in some archetype that no other champion fills(Jhin is a mad artist,illaoi a priestess,kindred the yin-yang spirit of death,etc.),but this guy is pretty much a combination of archetypes that are already in the game(we have already urgot for frankenstein-things,VI has 2 power fists and there are enough brutes in the game too),meaning he'd be mix of other characteristics.

What does Jhin bring to this game?

PROJECT Fizz3 votes

If you read, Jhin is the mad artist. You even have it quoted

Krizalid2 votes

And what does it bring to this game? And what does it have to do with his kit? When you create a champion, you can't just say "heh he's this thing" without reasoning. By this logic, Fiora is an artist as well, because she has a joke for that. Jhin sounds like a guy who didn't make it to the theater and now he's so upset that he just grabbed his uncle's gun and went on rampage. Not to mention that his overall persona is a "V for Vendetta/Joker" edgelord kind of thing. At least he doesn't quote Vaas from Far Cry 3, because I would delete this game instantly.

PROJECT Fizz4 votes

Have you even listened to his quotes? All about theater. One of his abilities: captive audience, curtain call. His kit isn't the best, but he is a mercenary that has a theater mentality. honestly. It feels like you don't know anything about this champ. He looks v for vendetta, but is more of plain theater theme mercenary.

Krizalid1 votes

Right, I've said in my post that:

Jhin sounds like a guy who didn't make it to the theater and now he's so upset that he just grabbed his uncle's gun and went on rampage.

So is my statement still true? Yup.

PROJECT Fizz4 votes

Um, no. He technically made it into the theater. Everyone he is hired to kill, their deaths are a "performance". He's in showbizz, but in his own way. He sees death as a grand finale. There are no rampages. He gets hired, kills the person, sees it as a performance. Check and mate.

HardSkrillDrum972 votes

dude i think as per some of my research he is nothing but a regular cyborg hybrid stuff sent by any administration of zaun as (zilean is having problem with ekko for messing with time) so i dont think he is some kinda that important player just like that samurai in project overdrive. But anyways that are my opinions could be anything

darapier172 votes

could be urgot in his lore it says that he got changed over and over again, so this could be one of them

When the trailer came out,it was clarified that it is not Urgot.

Those are not juggernauts tho. Those are full tanks

I can imagine a champion, using "that green fluid" as resource, no mana, and managing CDs

Huh, I always thought it was Singed in one of his skins, which is very VERY similar to who this character is.

I think this dude is different enough to be his own thing. We just don't have lore/depth to see it
