Is Deadeye/Jhin another dual champion like Kindred

I've been thinking about the teasers lately, reading other peoples speculations. We've all been assuming the champion is named Jhin or Deadeye. But what if this is another dual champion like Kindred ?

From what I can gather :

There's definitely a gun involved

You can hear this powerful rifle being load and shot in each teaser. This is followed by images of champions being penetrated by some sort of magic. The rifle leads me to believe this is a marksman champion.

**Being shot by this rifle makes seems to make your wishes come true - **

Looking at the teasers of Zed, Sona, Garen, and Vi it appears being shot releases images of each characters most inner desires. Zed's desire to be promised master of balance. Sona's desire to have a voice. Garen's desire to follow his heart. Vi desire to stop fighting to survive.

This, plus the name "Jhin", hint towards a some type of genie/djinn archeype at play

So marrying the too concepts, here is my take. **Deadeye **is the main champion, a marksmen who uses an enchanted or magical rifle. Being shot by this enchanted rifle act like a "magic lamp" of sorts and summons **Jhin **the genie/djinn. Deadeye can target both friend or foe, revealing the dual nature of genies in mythology. For Deadeye's allies this a benevolent buff. And for Deadeye's enemies, the genies is trickster who uses this against them.

TD;LR version : Dual champ. Deadeye is the ADC who summons Jhin to helps her on the battlefield

Thoughts?

Oh yay! Another champion with a passive on 3 abilities that we need to keep track of. Because you know passives. [slayer-jinx-unamused]
