2022: Speculating about which will be the next LoR champions!

When Bandlecity came to LoR, the game devs said that would be the last region and from then on there wouldn't be any more big expansions and instead, sporadic releases. It was exactly what happened: Worldwalker brought only 4 champions (Jhin,Annie,Bard and Illaoi) and Forces From Beyond brought 3 (Evelynn,Kai'Sa and Gwen).

Even though the format has changed, LoR always released one champion for each region and that is what has been going on, however there was something new: alongside these champions, came neutral champions, which are the Runeterra champions. Due to this new mechanic, the champions for each region are coming slowly, so, so far there were only champions for Noxus (Annie), Bilgewater (Illaoi), Shadow Isles (Gwen) and Shurima (Kai'Sa).

Like so, in this article, I will theorize about which will be the champions that will come to other regions and also bring out some that I believe can also be coming as Runeterra champions.

Corki

Most yordles have already come to LoR! The only ones left are Kled, Vex, and Corki. There's also Amumu, but as of today we still don't know if he is a yordle or a child, so I will only consider the others I've quoted.

As Kled is quite attached to Noxus and Vex to Shadow Isles, there's only Corki left, though he has a connection to Piltover&Zaun, I believe he will be pure Bandlecity, just like Tristana.

Sona

Ornn

Recently, with the arrival of Udyr, came the Ram Stance, which is also a direct reference to Ornn. In some moments Udyr even quotes the champion when you use this spell! With so many signs, it would be at least weird that Ornn is once again delayed and another champion comes in his place, so I think he is Freljord's next.

Master Yi

This one is already confirmed! They found Master Yi's name in the game's files, so he must be already close to arriving in LoR. Another sign that already indicated this arrival is the card Dragon Ambush, which arrived with Worldwalker and in its art there is the figure of a guy names Dragon Master which looks a lot like Master Yi, so I believe that this is a preview from his followers.

Seraphine

It's a matter of time till all KDA members come to LoR, so I believe Seraphine will be the next one from the group to be released in the game. Big Bad Bear, which is known to be a leak specialist, has also said Seraphine is almost here, so I take my chances in saying she is Piltover&Zaun's next champion!

Kayle

It would be weird to come only one of these champions, as they are twins and their stories is interconnected, so I believe they will come in the same LoR Expansion and as they don't usually release more than one champion to the game's known regions, I risk saying Kayle will come as Runeterra native and Morgana as a Targon native.

Neeko

Recently, alongside Sona's Path of the Champion relic, there also came one that makes a reference to Neeko (image below), so I believe pretty soon she will come to the game.

Bel'veth or Kassadin

Morgana

These were the champions that I believe can be very close to coming to LoR! Which of them are you most excited about? Is there any I haven't listed here that you just can't wait to play? Tell me all about it in the comment section!
