Review:
- Much more on Vel'Koz
- Details on the Sion relaunch including concept ideas.
Vel'Koz
I'm sure most of you will remember Vel'Koz. Hype for the upcoming champion (though not confirmed next) is building with multiple items pointing towards Vel'Koz one way or another, though we don't believe in every theory we do have information which leads us to suspect a lot of it is true.
For one concept artist Michalivan, frequently hired by Riot, has issued an updated splash art for Battlecast Viktor in which a sentinel like creature can be seen in the background - though its not confirmed to be Vel'Koz we can of course assume.

We'll leave this subject for now, as I personally feel that is mostly all we should be focusing on (most other theories I would deem a little too far fetched even by my standards)
Sion Relaunch
IronStylus has been busy once again outlining his visions for the aesthetic side of Sion - this time over in the PBE community.
Here are some interesting excerpts:
"Something specific which you've mentioned is being this slow, un-killable, unstoppable undead force, who, yes, would have died previously. I think this is a core characteristic."
"A idea we had is that Darius might even be the modern day incarnation of what Sion's "style" used to be. Sion might have been a great ax wielder (though a more primitive style) in the past, but is now this lumbering monster where his ax is just representative of his brute strength. It's used in more of a clobbering, smashing way than a precise slicing that Darius does."
That's all for now chaps - we'll keep you updated on both of these topics as more info comes!
