I think we're getting a new Yordle champion soon.

Look closely near Sion's left leg. Someone with big ears and a zipline. I know this isn't canon, but this could be a sneak preview of a new champion. Have we ever gotten a preview of a new champ by seeing their alternate reality self first?

Edit: All right guys, it's clear I got too excited and jumped the gun on possible reveals. Ever since 's lore update, I've bee dying to see some lore updates on the Yordles. And the best lore updates we've had were champion updates/releases.

Actually yes, Zac was discreetly teased in the Battle Bunny Riven splash of all places.

Well, the first time Vel'Koz made an appearance was with his Battlecast skin, in the back of Creator Viktor's splash, around 6 months before his release.

There was also the unknown flying Battlecast creation which/who was seen in Creator Viktor's recall panels, in the back of the Battlecast Vel'Koz splash (Behind Creator Viktor) and possibly in the blueprints-of-a-background of the Battlecast Alpha Skarner and Battlecast Kog'Maw promotional site, but this guy/gal never got released. :P

Look in Mecha Aatrox and Mecha Mal's splashes. You can see Rumble, Heimerdinger, and Ziggs. This is likely one of them.

Actually there's a bunch of Yordles in this splash.

Not necessarily a new champion, it's just that the mecha skins are actually robots of yordle design that went wild because of runeterran skynet(?) I guess.

The skin line actually has lore, whaddya know

The yordle is most likely Rumble, since he is one of the smallest yordles, maybe even the smallest. It's also confirmed that he created mecha Kha, so he could've helped create mecha zero sion. Rumble
