Mount Targon, Two empty slots?

Caytheles··56 votes·15,188 views

Looking at the "Explore Mount Targon" page, it has Diana, Pantheon, and Leona. But there are two empty slots.

My prediction would be Taric as the Earth/mountain aspect, and Aurelion Sol as the Wind aspect....

Here now - I'm pretty sure Jaredan has the monopoly on merciless teasing round these parts. ;)

(I, personally, am off to read the Targon stories. I didn't even know they were due out today! Woop woop! (Standard disclaimer - I'm not part of the Narrative team, I don't know much, I am looking forward to Taric though!)

Any Yorick Hints?

Yorick is going to be Mt. Targon's new aspect of... um,er... that is to say... I honestly forgot.

...who are we talking about again?

He's the aspect of the Missing Cigar

Well yeah Taric is pretty obvious since he's the next big rework, I think definitely looking forward to the new champ whoever he is

Everyone already thought so but Taric rework confirmed

Skaiserus1 votes

It's been confirmed a while back. Some people just don't even want to look beyond just the boards. The rework order as of now, is Taric, Mage Update (being the next few patches where things like Zyra, Vel'koz, Vladimir, and some others have small parts in their kit reworked), and then Yorick. Hope this helped you out.

Any chance they plan to release the rest relatively soon or am I looking at weeks before the conclusion to the Targon story?

GreenLore1 votes

They said already that this isn't going to be a classical event,so it might be just a shiny update for the Targon lores,not a bigger story,so I wouldn't get my hopes up on any big lore development for the targon champions.

The 2 empty spots are likely for Aurelion Sol(who is probably coming in 2 patches) and Taric(who might be in the patch after Sol)

Everyone's expecting Taric and Aurelion Sol by next PBE cycle.

Truth is it's actually Malphite and Rammus, who now has the most exciting lore ever: OK.

plot twist, malphite IS mount Targon.

The legends do say that the mountain is a sleeping titan...

that's mentioned in the targon lore, how it may be a living thing

Kayle and Morgana, calling it now.

From someone who isn't too fond of every otherworldy champion being forced into a faction, that would REALLY rustle the jimbobs :S

Definately not Blitzcrank

Maybe Kayle and Morgana? They have yet to find a home. What if they're the patrons of the moon and the sun?

The Last Ballad1 votes

They are extra-planer individuals, like the voidborn champions. Its just more vague for them.

Aurelion sol and taric so obvious .

Variks the Loyal16 votes

Pantheon is starlight, Leona is the sun, and Diana is the moon...

If we assume Aurelion Sol is the comet, then Taric might be the earth under their feet.

Dude.... you rocked my world, i never imagined Aurelion as the comet. cmon son....damn son..

(Before people go off at me, I'm perfectly fine with Pantheon staying as he is, I just think something like this would be a nice addition to the character given this new lore.) If that's the case, maybe they should add some effects to Pantheon's abilities to make them a little more celestial? Considering his new lore seems to make him the spirit of a constellation, perhaps something like the particle effects on Cosmic Reaver Kassadin with more of an orange or bloody hue would be fitting?

Ralanr3 votes

Obviously he needs a celestial skin.

Pantheon's gonna need a whole dang remodeling, a la Gangplank. Goodbye pizza-feet, hello war incarnate!

I was thinking the same thing. A crimson, sunset background for his cloak with glinting starlight that appears like shooting stars when the cloak moves. Twinkling starlight in his eyes.

And proper spell effects for his ultimate, besides just a big, red circle, there can be stars falling near his destination to herald his Skyfall.

Taric and Aurelion Sol

duh?

Solari?

Sol dragon?

also WHY ISNT ALISTAIR ON THIS LIST? HES FROM TARGON TOO YA KNOW

TheySeeMeWardin4 votes

Anyone else thinking of Skarner.. Because the fact that's he's literally made of stone. Although Aurelion Sol is probably one of them because his name freakin means sun and Taric is coming out soon so it makes since for him to be the next one, I wouldn't count out the Crystal Scarner just yet.

The12thman942 votes

I don't think Aurelion Sol is going to be the champ. If I remember correct Y Riot has said that Sol will be out in a while, but is not the next champ to be released. They also said that Taric will be after a new champ is released. So one is probably Taric but the other is not Sol.

Bultz6 votes

No that's not right all they said is he will be released the first half of this year and that's all as far as I know he could be next.

  1. What if the 5th Targon champion is Malphite
Kîndrêd6 votes

What do you mean 5th Targon champion? Malphite is Mt. Targon.

PeachsProperty1 votes

Where my cyclopean champion? was totally mentioned in the lore of area.

Nilok4 votes

Velkoz?

PeachsProperty1 votes

But vel is a void monster. The Lore for Targon mentioned one eyed race :o

Nilok1 votes

And Diana was fighting Void spawn in her lore, directed by the aspect of the Moon. The Celestial Aspects of Targon directly oppose The Void. The entities that the Rakkor often fight may also be Void spawn

Looks like Kassadin may finally have allies in his fight against Malzahar and The Void.
