They're going to make him cost 6300 IP so they can entice more people to buying RP. It doesn't matter what the champ is or what he/she/it does; Riot isn't going to start launching champs at less than 4800 IP so long as people keep buying RP.

The recent cuts in price to ChoGath, Annie and Taric suggest a trend of reducing the prices of old champs to pad out the cheapie-roster. Besides, most of their existing playerbase are more likely to already own at least one of those champs, so they lose virtually nothing by doing this.
