The same source that leaked bilgewater events also leaked informations concerning upcoming skins, wich were supposed to be the following:
Star guardian janna, poppy, lulu (1350 RP) Star guardian Jinx (1820 RP) Elementalist Lux (3250 RP) Candy King Ivern (1350 RP)
So basicaly all the star guardians are pretty much confirmed... Lots of chances that we get Elementalist Lux if you ask me, and as a Lux main I am Hyped as fuck.
Tesla Effect7 votesCalling a possible theory...Elementalist Lux is connected to Star Guardian Lux and its going to be revealed in Part 4 of the Star Guardian story.
L0ve Is Blue1 votesI was thinking the exact same thing!
Ichiiyukai1 votesSo do I! I think that we will get it, for sure. So hyped. I would say in the next few patches, maybe next patcha s Part 4 of the Star Guardian Story, like Tesla said. Maybe lux gets killed and someone gets the power of the elements. :D I don't know :P

I theorise that, Iverns and Star Guardians releases will be apart from each other a week. Ivern is released then one week later the SG skins are, shortly after that you get part 4 of the story which hints the new Ultimate skin connected to the SG line, and then on the PBE you would see the Ultimate skin being released in the patch cycle....then less than a month/a month after the Ivern patch was released, the new Patch with Elementalist Lux would be released.
Thats just my take on it, based on what was given to us from resent happenings, of course things could change , maybe the skin release times would be sooner than what I described so that Jinx wouldnt get her own Login Screen (as is the custom with every Legendary skin that wasnt hindered by some even larger release), and maybe Elementalist Lux may turn out to be false (but since the SG and Candy King skins turned out to be true, there is a chance this one is as well, especially how many of us doubted that a lot of the SG skins would ever be a thing from just the leaks alone).
Sukishoo4 votesElementalist Lux indeed confirmed.

Cheshire Kittin2 votesI own every Lux skin damn right I'm gonna own this one too
Sharjo3 votesLet's wait to see if Candy King Ivern's real before jumping to conclusions about any leaks.
L0ve Is Blue4 votesWell it's pretty hard to just predict out of nothing that 4 specific champion will get skins from the same skin line AND predict wich one is going to be a legendary. Plus, the fact that the source is the same leakers that leaked bilgewater makes it even more trustable, so I don't think I'm jumping to conclusions.
GreenLore2 votesThe big question is: What will make the skin ultimate? Some people suggested that Lux would be able to switch between elements with each form having different skill effects,but I think that migh tbe a bit problematic in terms of readability(one moment you'll have to watch out for red spells and in the next you'll need to watch out for blue ones) and would seem a bit unimpressive since it would make the skin basically just 4 different skins in one.

That's basicaly spirit guard Udyr and no one is complaining about It.

I don't think diffrent particles is a problem for readability, as long as the spell has defined edges. And all of lux spells are pretty predictable at base, they all have a travel time expect her ultimate wich is a channel that shows where its going to hit before it does.

Hardly, Udyr is defined as having multiple forms, there is no reason to complain because you'd just look idiotic. DJ Sona works because, she's a DJ and comes with multiple sound tracks to actually warrant ultimate price. Honestly, when I think Elementalist, I don't think Lux. I think someone like Syndra, Karma or maybe Veigar. Like don't get me wrong, I'm intrigued, but I just can't wrap my head around how they saw Elementalist as as fit for Lux.
L0ve Is Blue1 votesThey did the electric theme pretty well with steel legion so that could be a part of the elements she master, fire wouldn't be that hard to do to, changing her staff into something that looks like what fire dancers use, E is a big fire ball that explodes, Q locks targets in a ring of Fire, ult is a big fire blast, W makes a smoke shield or smth. She could also master ice, E being kind of like anivia, or maybe a small snow storm that can detonate. Q freezes targets, R is like an Aurora beam. There are many other elements I could think of but I think thats enough to get the concept. Elementalist works perfectly with Lux in my opinion.

thats because that is pretty standard for Udyr. He has different models for each form.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Keep in mind that readability affected other skins in similar ways. For example Ahris orb is always blue when her passive is down and green when it is up,regardless of skin. Similar all of Poppys skins have yellow ability-effects,even the new star guardian skin(though I feel like they are going a bit too far in her case).
L0ve Is Blue2 votesWell for ahri its an indicator of her passive, lux doesn't need that because her passive is a debuff on the enemies. Also who said she can't change model with each element?
GreenLore1 votesI never said anything against Lux changing model,my concern are her skills.
And in Ahris case it is a method for her opponents to know when her passive is up and in a similar way,Luxs opponents need to be aware of where her E is.
Arakadia1 votesThat's basicaly spirit guard Udyr and no one is complaining about It.
Their all very distinct with a bear sound and bear image and similar colors. Lux would have new sounds, new colors, new particles, and nothing but shape to tell you. Udyr has no very visual spells too.
L0ve Is Blue1 votesLux would have new sounds, new colors, new particles, and nothing but shape to tell you.
What the fuck is the difference between this and udyr changing form?
Arakadia1 votesWhat the fuck is the difference between this and udyr changing form?
Udyr doesn't have a big spell that you need to dodge. He unleashes the sound OF THE ANIMAL which is the same still, it shows a picture of the animal, it has the same colors mostly, and all that.
Lux has large spells you must dodge, with sounds different then that of classic sounds, new colors, and new particles. Their very different.
L0ve Is Blue1 votesOk so because she has big spells its not ok for her to have an ultimate skin that changes her particle/model?
Arakadia1 votesYour missing my point. Spirit Guard Udyr clearly in many ways shows you whats happening.

no no no her q's hitbox is f*cked up even if you dont touch it you can get binded
L0ve Is Blue1 votesOn star guardian lux the hitbox pretty much match the particle
Catastrop2 votesThis is my question as well, honestly, this seems more like a Legendary skin. Switching elements and getting multiple particles is just uninspired imo.
Sukishoo2 votesbut I think that migh tbe a bit problematic in terms of readability
Oh yes because DJ Sona didn't get away with it... /g changes from a blue model to a red model. They can go it in many ways that it won't be a problem.
GreenLore1 votesIts not about her model,it is about her skills. DJ sona uses the same colors for her skills in all 3 of her forms(heck she uses the same colors in pretty much every skin).
The problem would be the idea that lux gets different spell effects depending on the form,that she throws a fireball in one form and in the other she throws a water/ice ball
Sukishoo2 votesIt's not like they are going to be a different shape and size, then it'd cause a problem in many ways. It'd be pretty easy to tell when getting hit by something red from one variation and something blue the next that's exactly the same. Plus, if it's a model swap it's not like they could change every second... you have to be out of combat for DJ Sona's to work so it'd be the same here.
GreenLore1 votesYeah but imagine Lux leaving her lane and you don't see her for quite some time. Then a teamfight breaks out in the river and lux suddenly throws her E and Q over the wall,but they are blue instead of the color that they had before.
I mean when it comes to color-clarity,they went so far to make all of Poppys star-guardian-abilities gold as well,so riot does care about this a lot.
But in the end I guess we'll have to wait and see,could turn out that I am wrong or maybe riot has something else planned.
eThot Princess1 voteswe'll just have to wait and see! :)
Ralanr1 votesMakes me worried that AU wise Jinx will become a villain.
L0ve Is Blue1 votesI think it will be something a little more cliché where she accepts her fate as a starguardian and when they all unite they can lend their power to their leader (Lux) to turn her into elementalist Lux.
Ralanr1 votesProbably. But Riot can still go betrayal on us.
Drakensu2 votesEach starguardian could represent an element :
Poppy is blue like the water element Jinx is the fire one (she is explosive and red ;D ) Janna... Air one ofc And Lulu is green which is the common colour used for the earth element !
EndlessSorcerer1 votesWhy would she bother betraying the Star Guardians?
Besides, she could easily be a (former) villain who is helping against a bigger issue at the moment.
Why would she let the bad guys destroy cities before she gets the chance to?
Ralanr1 votesUsually something along the lines of, "Her power is too dangerous to us if it isn't in our hands" or "We need her power and will do anything to claim it" stuff.
Plus we don't know what happens if a Star Guardian refuses their powers, but it sounds like they can't just get rid of them without kicking the bucket.
Jeddy0171 votesI still don't believe there's an ultimate skin coming in 6.20. Riot would have teased it in some way. There's no way in hell they would release an ultimate skin without teasing it. I mean, the tease Legendary skins & the previous ultimate skins all have teasers too.
L0ve Is Blue1 votesSome pages of the star guardian section are still not out yet, making a whole universe around SG would be enough of a teaser to make an ultimate skin if you ask me. If Elementalist Lux exist she is probably bound to the SG universe.
Gapybo1 votesWho said anything about 6.20? That leak didn't specify the exact patch the skins are supposed to release.
Sukishoo2 votesIt never said it was coming in 6.20, it just said these are skins that are in development.
Cheshire Kittin1 votesRiot is always teasing in different ways I think this wasn't actually a mistake but a teaser because they knew the internet would blow up over this
DwarvenGiant1 votesIt's "confirmed" that the skin has been in development at, at least, one point. Sorry if I'm a mega party-pooper, but I just don't think we should expect it in 100% until it's real teasers time.
######Again, I'm not saying that the skin will necessarily not become reality though.
