Lux has to keep that a secret from everyone including her brother and works for some secret magic unit in demacia I believe Ez isnt from Demacia and Galio is a giant statue does that even count

Personally, I would love to see a Demacian counterpart to Swain. Some sort of powerful and intelligent leader/tactician that plays around with the "I am a genius and you are nothing but a piece in my game of chess" archetype.

In order to not just be Swain, I would like to see him taken as a slightly more light and humorous version of the character...but I don't know how to write characters, so whatever :P

Uncle Iroh from ATLA comes to mind.

I support this so much. I mean, Riot has already taken a lot of inspiration from Avatar...so why not?

Maybe they could even get Greg Baldwin to voice him.

JarvanIV ? I mean, he is the prince and future king.

Rindin14Feb 5, 20181 votes

J4 is perhaps politically the Demacian counterpart to Swain, but his character is very different. We get a sense that he isn't stupid, but J4 is far from being a tactician. His main traits are leadership, determination, and perhaps a deep knowledge of personal combat (lots of time fighting big beasties, in-depth knowledge of how to kill stuff, etc). I'm almost hoping for a character who is shown to be physically sub-par (compared to the superhuman physical condition of the average champion) who makes up for it with scary-high levels of fore-planning and intelligence.

TL:DR J4 is Captain America, I want Batman

In otherwords, he already knows he won, but he likes to play with the other person. While doing so, he has a smile, and the main redeeming quality he has is the fact that it's helping a people who are down on their luck. He's not innately bad, but he's scary to whoever doesn't understand what's in his mind. Right?

Jarvan IV or his father could be considered counter parts.

Besides VGUS we have not had a Bandle City champion since Lulu, just saying.

-Kled is Noxian and Gnar from the jungle (or freljord)-

KillaburnFeb 4, 20182 votes

i think riot might dissolve the faction of bandle city. because yordles now are being thrown to diff kinds of factions while the rest of the yordles currently living in bandle city is being being thrown out too based on the new lore. Teemo is currently scouting in runeterra, tris is also outside bandle, rumble is like tris, we don't know where lulu( and whats her relation the fae now) is and lastly, i can see veigar outside bandle city to wreck havoc too. Bandle city can be even renamed to another name or faction. It can even be called the spirit world now because they came from it.

Lastly, I can see icathia and kumungu be factions in the universe site in the future because many champs are retcon to icathia and nid and gnar might be in kumungu.

I higly doubt that Riot would do that since the VO of Tristana mentions Bandle City, a lot.

KillaburnFeb 4, 20181 votes

but that's just a theory, a game theory ;)

Neverthless to say if i was right, riot could just update her VO or remove all the bundle city references

Chromatic EagleFeb 4, 20182 votes

I really doubt Riot is going to remove references to Bandle City. We even see a version of it in the Pentakill video. They just haven’t fleshed it out, like the Void or Kumungu Jungle.

No whetr does he mention that the next champ is an assassin . . .

paisyFeb 5, 20181 votes

"He also said the champ that's coming after "Void ADC" is one of his favorites and his preferred picks are usually mages and assassins.. so it might be a midlaner."

Not my comment, but that's what I'm assuming what he means

I wish we could see a granda champ in demecia

OniSeijiFeb 4, 20181 votes

I don't think Demacia, lorewise, would have an assassin. Just like all but 2 of Demacia's champs scale primarily off of AD (Lux and Sona being the exceptions), while Noxus has champs that scale off of both AD and AP. Another thing to point out is that Noxus doesn't have a dedicated support. It might be according to lore.

YuGiHoFeb 4, 20183 votes

Since magic is taboo in demacia we could get a champion that secretly uses magic to strengthen and enhance their physical capability. thats the only way i see a physical ap champ coming out of demacia .but the idea of using magic to achieve greater physical strength seems more noxian
