The next League of Legends champion is two in one body - Kayn and Rhaast


The next League of Legends champion has leaked, and he's quite special. Based on a quickly-removed video it's two characters inhabiting one body - one a "shadow assassin" named Kayn, the other an inhabitant of his demonic scythe named Rhaast. Both want to be in full control. You can see a mirror of the video above.

Here's what's going on with League of Legends patch 7.13.

As sleuthed by fansite Surrender at 20, the gameplay of the new champion appears to focus on switching between these two personas based on actions taken in-game, as well as a third form when the two are in balance.

Each has different abilities, as seen on the ability bar, and even a different portrait. While there are likely similarities between each form, restricting switches to only while back at base would suggest there are significant changes. It doesn't appear to be a permanent decision due to the buff icons and cooldown displayed on the transition button, but that's possible too.

We're likely to find out more in the very near future as Riot usually do full teasers on Tuesday evenings before the new patch hits PBE. This Reddit thread has further speculation that killing enemy champions is what allows for the transformation, creating a snowball effect. Interestingly, it doesn't match up with the mage or tank predictions made last time Riot teased something.
