Wild Rift Champion Road Map contained cryptic hints for upcoming champions
The Wild Rift Patch 3.4 update is almost at its end phase. Players are now looking forward to seeing what awaits in the next patch cycle.
Through a blog post, Riot Games delivered a ton of mysterious hints that led fans to speculate which champions may be arriving in Wild Rift for Patch 3.5.
One of the most obvious hints is the three silhouettes in the blog’s cover photo and thumbnail. These shadows are the champions Lillia, Aatrox, and Kayn, respectively. These champions have also been leaked by data miners a few months before this reveal.
In the first paragraph, the sentence "I’ve heard rumors that there’s plague rats feasting on those who stray from the pack," may indicate the arrival of the champion Twitch, the Plague Rat.
Another champion was also hinted at in the first sentence. The phrase, "Comrades falling asleep before vanishing by the hands of a starry-eyed trickster," may hint at the champion Zoe, the Aspect of Twilight.
The fifth paragraph of the blog post stated that "I’m beginning to think that all these crows are spying on us, but maybe I’m just being paranoid." This may also indicate the arrival of Swain, the Noxian General, or Fiddlesticks, the Ancient Fear. Swain commands a flock of ravens while Fiddlesticks has an army of crows.
The same paragraph also had the sentence, "however, the Captain has assured we can still find sparks of joy and wonder, even when we least expect it." This statement may be related to the champion Zeri, the Spark of Zaun.
Fans should take note that Riot Games did not specifically name the champions and the patch cycle they will be released. Fans will have to keep their eyes peeled for the next release of the Wild Rift Patch 3.5 preview to know more.
