Pretty interesting trailer. Got Jax in what appears to be a new skinline, as well as Legendary for Jax? (since he is the VO in the trailer)

Do wonder what these other five pilots launching on the 15th will be.

EDIT it's here

I also think he's getting a Legendary, Jax hasn't gotten a skin in a while + none of his skins are above Epic.

Really curious to know who the other four "new pilots" are though

He shouldn't get a legendary unless they are actually willing to give him some updates

(like his base skin animations and his VO for starters)

It says 5 new pilots, I really wonder who else will join the mechas besides Jax.

EDIT: Also, that shadow when he is talking about the threat they are fighting. Could it be that they are finally adding more Kaiju skins for the Mechas to fight?!

I am voting against these as the Lunar Revel skins since robots don't fit that well. I'd prefer Warring Kingdoms or Lunar Wraith that are more traditional. Also this would be the SECOND holiday that Riot will have gimped on (although we at least have Poro King for Christmas). Riot should stick to traditional holiday skins instead of replacing them with new lines. I love the holidays and it is sad that they are being downplayed. Just awful.

Robo-Samurai?

Who's the Mondo-bot? Sion?

Well, the best part about these skins are the particles and the sound design. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

The champs are not that easy to read or recognize though. That could be better. And yea...another Mech themed Leona skin ?

They deleted Shojin so they are giving him a Mecha in compensation. Outstanding move Riot.

People keep saying how this will fit in the Mecha universe, but I think this is supposed to be its own distinct thing. This Jax mech looks more "fantasy mech" like a Studio Ghibli film while both the Mecha and Super Galaxy lines are more "sci-fi mech" if that makes any sense. Less "robot" and more "ancient fantasy tech" like with the Sheikah Slate and related things from Zelda Breath of the Wild.
