Welp, the new roadmap is out and thus far got surprised with Akali and Nunu added to the roster!... although CT on Akali seems scary, but if Warwick went right...

Now, the new champion: I fear its going to backlash really hard on Riot.

Follow me on this: Thus far the teaser seems as a haunted crevace amidts the desert, so comes from Shurima or Icathia, that means that obvious option of a new character, or either is Kassadin's daughter or Varus' lost sister.

I hope is the later, because they can easily fuck up the character. If something was taught about Ao Shin -> Aurelion Sol was that Riot has the capacity to make justice to the former idealization of a character longed by the community, but easily screw with delivering a gameplay experience that executes the character with justice, as well as passing so much time since its existence that nobody bats an eye whether is released or not.

Then comes a stronger problem: With the last thing said, I'm scared of the gameplay description teases of "high risk/high reward ADC that goes within enemy lines or dies forgotten" sounds scary just because their line of throught is Vayne, and doubt anyone wants another Vayne (or worse, a stronger Vayne), and sounds an awful lot like Kindred, their last attempt at this, and in said attempt she was unpopular, then people realized how to use her and how strong they were, at which point were gutted to the point that had to be mini-reworked and now is unpopular again.

So unless one of the abilities is pre-rework Yorick's ultimate (because the only form I see this work is that you either manage to avoid being targeted or cheat death somehow), is better to try something else. I normally wouldn't write a pretty much butthurt message if it wasn't for the last Roadmap belonging to Zoe, and that didn't go well...
