After weeks of waiting, Riot Games has finally released its Champion Action Plan. In addition to giving us the first information on the third champion in development – the famous tank top from Shurima – to detail the reworks of Udyr, Skarner, but also that of Aurelion Sol, the studio published a short story highlighting stage the second new champion to come to League of Legends.
After the Void Jungler — who might be called Bel’Veth — here’s what we know about this supposedly unconventional ADC.
Ten Noxians were no match for the unknown
Unlike the third new champion – for whom we have very precise information even if it is not very numerous – we are told here a little story that took place in Bill la Coquille’s Oyster Bar!. We learn that some Noxian soldiers seemed to be looking for stories, going so far as to throw away a stranger’s oysters. This stranger seems to be this new champion.
As expected, hostilities soon began. L’“colorful stranger”, as Riot Games calls it, laughs as a strange mist enters the room. After the mist cleared a few seconds later, the ten Noxians lay on the ground, while there was no trace of the stranger.
Interestingly, the story ends like this: “When one of the other customers expressed doubts about the veracity of the story, Bill assured that it could not be more authentic, and that this mysterious stranger actually lived in a room upstairs in the restaurant. He said we were free to go and see him if we wanted to.
We abstained from it this time, but who knows? Maybe next time you will come with us to see if this stranger from a land of a thousand colors really exists or not.”
According to the latest leaks, it would be a very special gameplay ADC, with short-range attacks. A Yasuo designed for the bot lane, one of whose abilities will be similar to Yasuo’s Q, in that it will have 3 different activations, and each activation will slightly change its hitbox.
This mysterious character should come out after the Void Jungler.
