Really hope we don't have to wait 4 years again for the next Piltover champion

Piltover still just has 7 champions and it took 4 years between Camille and Vi for the release of a new champion...

Meanwhile we see Ionia, sitting on 18 champions, last year they released 3 of them in a direct row of each other. Kayn Rakan Xayah

There are still alot of champion archetypes I would like to see in the game, fitting the Steampunk style of League of Legends. The last releases all have been high fantasy, gods, aspects, ghosts and all that stuff.

Some more people using interesting gadgets would be great. Please don't let us wait another years for the next Piltovian, Riot. [sg-soraka]


What kind of champion would you enjoy getting added to the Piltover roster? My favourites would be:

The Medic Someone using technology to heal people with a hextech device. All healing champions in the game use magic for it, someone using technology could be interesting. Eventually with some stories about famous healers of League, like Soraka and Sona.

Data Analyst / Hikikomori Someone shut in a room and using cameras and other devices to help the police of Piltover from a safe distance by giving orders and giving information. Would be cool if such a champion would have a sentient hextech device. Could be a support, a role that Piltover is lacking.

An Elite Guardian of the Ecliptic Vaults The most famous and safest bank in Runeterra, yet Jinx just walked in and put shame onto them. Would be interesting to see what happened to that place after that incident, how they try to upgrade their security. Some kind of tank could be cool here, especially since Piltover doesn't have one.

Ezreal's getting a rework soon. That's something.

Which brings up an interesting point: He's the only recent VGU who has already had their lore updated. Are they going to change it again, or keep it mostly the same?

Rakan, Xayah and Kayn all released after one another because originally Kayn was supposed to be the antagonist in Rakan and Xayah's lore, instead of Zed. There is always method to Riot's madness when releasing champions it seems.
