@Riot, what exactly was the object shown in Swain's preview?
Is it a breastplate? Some kind of ceremonial wall decoration? Its pretty cool (and would maybe make for a great tattoo design) but I'm not really sure what it is to be honest.

It's a teaser image. It's intentionally vague.
;)
Personally I thought of it as the lower part of his robe.
Looks like a banner
It could either be his cape or just a teaser for his helm, and let's face it, I'd like to see Swain in that helm.
Maybe it's a Talisman tied to Vastayan powers ? There have been hints and theory tying Swain to vastaya,as he can transform into a bird like creature? Maybe he isn't vastayan per say,but by some kind of ritual to gain power? We know the Black Rose is an organization consisting of members practicing dark arts and all of them so far,have been shown to be mages.
If you look at the imagine provided it might be a necklace/talisman.It could represent a bird creature of sort. Kinda looks like a flattened bird face. IDK. Pretty hyped
Metal bird skull and feathers on a banner representing his (true?) form.
Wonder how Tyrant Swain will look like and if indeed if that skin will still be canon?
He stole Karthus' fashion.
Expect a Karthus VS Swain event soon.
Honestly it's probably some sort of a banner, but it might as well be an amulet or some other powerful relic (that perhaps helps him to transform into that demon-ish raven creature)
It's obviously a raven shaped helmet.
Looks like it could be part of a tabard.
My vote is a pauldron
Looks like a mask to me.
I belive its his personal coat of arms. The noxian red,black iron with the raven head seems something Swain would put on his family(assuming he is part of a noble house) banner.
Can be a helm, a belt/cape ornament or a crest.
