Guys? Come on, this isn't some Sherlock Holmes stuff.

Bubbles. Butterflies. Butterflies that are RAINBOW-ish.

Ive been hoping for this. A fairy/pixie like champion with vivid colorful skills

FairyfleurOct 18, 20172 votes

I love fairies

I'm just hoping for this classical fairy plot twist: The beautiful, enthralling Bubbles and Rainbows... they kill you. Horribly. No, not a distraction so that I can kill you. They melt you from the inside, they animate your skin, and order it to eat you, or some other horrific thing.

What is a Glade?

ArbiterOfTruthOct 18, 20177 votes

A location mentioned in Lulu's lore. It is where she found Pix I believe.

SkorchOct 18, 201718 votes

A peaceful happy land where Lulu found Pix and spent 60 or so years i believe.

There is also a theory SOMEWHERE and I dont remember where, but its possible the Glade happens just before the void takes over that place.

WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOct 18, 20178 votes

The theory arose due to the description of places where void corruption is heavy matches stuff we have on the Glade

PokladnicaZlaOct 19, 20171 votes

Umm,we kinda have limited knowledge of the Glade. Like there's no insight of it,besides Lulu's personality.

Centuries, she spent 100's of years there

FairyfleurOct 18, 20179 votes

To clarify, these hundreds of years were much faster than normal years.

Sp33d Zer0Oct 18, 20177 votes

Correction, hundreds of years in normal years equated a couple years in there.

If you look at Shaco's base splash, he's in the same place as Lulu IIRC, but everything is becoming...

There's also a song on the official League of Legends album called Lulu and Shaco's Quirky Encounter

underscores222Oct 19, 20172 votes

Which doesn't mean they ever met in lore. The song is based on the idea "what if they did meet?"

PokladnicaZlaOct 19, 20171 votes

Not really. Lulu's is filled with flora and colours,while Shaco's resembles something more dull and creepy.

iT Might be something like Puck

Ah yes, the other main... if it's a similar play style, I'd play it.

Jet SettOct 19, 20171 votes

No cannibal fairies please, Rito.

Meep ManOct 19, 20171 votes

For those that don't know, Puck is a faerie dragon that was born as a larvae from a great tree. In it's infancy, it ate from the tree, like normal, but also ate all of it's siblings. Every single one.

Yeah I'd really like to see a fey champ and not just a champ who has a fey as their companion.

What makes this even more likely is in my opinion the fact that this year gave us tons of information about the different species of runeterra(Vastaya and Demigods are now a real thing and we also got more info about the darkin and demons),so it would be fitting if the next champ was nonhuman as well.

SkorchOct 18, 20172 votes

A rioter confirmed its a noxus mage. It MIGHT be Noxus Lux pretty much.

6FlagsFunnelCakeOct 18, 20174 votes

When did a rioters say this?

Lucky MonikerOct 18, 201725 votes

The comment I’m thinking of simply states they really don’t like Lux, nothing about noxus

SkorchOct 18, 20175 votes

Why did everyone comment the same thing?

Anyway, I personally do not know, but I saw someone somewhere state that Riot said the next champion was gaurenteed Noxus. They mightve been dumb and thought about Swain, IDK. But just thought id let you guys now.

On another hand, an insanely positive Noxian would be interesting character.

LauchmelderOct 18, 201724 votes

Great, now I imagined Swain throwing around butterflies....

ImTheSideKickOct 19, 20173 votes

Next legendry Halloween skin

Butterfly Swain

MetleonOct 19, 20172 votes

Swain "I'm five bubbles ahead of you."

KaeblenOct 19, 20171 votes

I'm pretty sure a Demacian mage would have more reason to hate Lux than a Noxian one. Unless, you know, they were Demacian by birth, and then went to Noxus to avoid repression of the state. Big problem those Demacian Mages have there... except Lux... Lux doesn't worry much about that...

TOYING WITH TWILIGHT It’s been a long time since we had a new mage (and even longer since we released a new burst mage). With this in mind, we’ve redirected some time to creating a new burst mage with the tools to approach a fight from… interesting angles. We also wanted to take this chance to do something a bit more playful and bubbly as opposed to the dark and serious champions we’ve done recently. The new mage will have unique abilities that haven’t been seen before in League, so hold onto your summoner spells and don’t fall asleep, because change is coming… cataclysmic change. Also, sparkles!

Direct from Champion roadmap: OCTOBER 2017

I mean,the Noxus part could either refer to Swain's upcoming VGU or the new burst mages originates from Noxus,but was empowered by the Glade (similar to Lulu).

Don't fall asleep? Will that be a new CC?

You can't have a noxus bubble mage... it just doesn't work... that's like making a techno themed Ionian champion...
