SOOOOOOO apparently theres a new champ teaser on the PBE...and according to the quotes and splash art, i have some theories.

Firstly on the quotes: You can already tell he's probably going to be a jungler. But. One of his quotes is: "Why kill when you can just ask?" According to this quote, id say one of his abilities is to take the smite bonus from jungle monsters without actually needing to smite. Which means he woulds get a lot of benefit even if he's not jungler, go to krugs for extra damage on towers, tromp for more damage, etc. Also, since the monsters don't actually die, their "respawn" times would probably be reduced.

TO THE SPLASH ART So, apparently this is Sorag. From his weapon, a staff, id think he would be a ranged champion, which isn't really common for junglers. But, look at his theme. If you play Terraria, you will know that his armour resembles the Leaf wings. Could it be related? No idea, but it would be a cool easter egg.

Post your theories in the comments! Edit: Quotes can be found here

My theory is that I don't trust that splash art. At all. I'm super sceptical.

I thought this splash art was debunked as being a character from a Chinese game that came out in June?

That splash is most likely not related to League in any official way, as it was posted on the artist's Artstation more than a month ago.

The moment I saw that art for the first time, I was immediately reminded of 'Windaar, Sage of Gusto' from Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG. http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/yugioh/images/6/60/WindaarSageofGusto-TF05-JP-VG.png/revision/latest?cb=20120422162631

The post was in june, posted on the forum page of another chinese MOBA game. 99% likely that the splash art has nothing to do with LoL.
