New champion ‘Aurora’ leaked in League of Legends

On May 14, a post on X was discovered that shows an emote of an unknown champion from League of Legends. The community has since speculated about the possible new champion but is sad for one reason.

How was the new champion leaked? On May 14, a post was noticed on X that shows an emote with a yet unknown champion from League of Legends. Since then, there have been assumptions that this could be the new champion after Smolder.

The character wears glasses and writes with a quill in a notebook. Furthermore, the character is seen in winter clothing and has long, braided orange hair.

“I wanted a rabbit!“

How does the community react to the champion? Although many voices in the comments on X seem positive, some users are confused and sad, as it doesn’t currently appear that the new champion is a Vastaya. Vastaya are hybrid beings in League of Legends, which include champions like Ahri, Xayah, or Neeko.

Some users comment under the post on X:

• MageofMoon writes on X: “I WANTED A RABBIT. But she looks cute, I’m just a bit disappointed that she isn’t exactly a Vastaya.”
• hypnyatized notes on X: “I don’t think people realize that the glasses cover a very rabbit-like part of the upper face. I think it’s a bait when the hood comes down.”
• KonyaKauz comments on X: “Oh, I don’t even know why I hoped for a furry at all.”

What else do we know about the new champion? Furthermore, there is speculation that the new champion will be named Aurora. This assumption is mainly based on the fact that there is already a subreddit called /r/AuroraMains on Reddit. Riot usually prepares for the release of new champions by creating these specific forums ahead of the release.

Another hint refers to a teaser from January, which can also be found on Reddit, where Aurora’s notebook could already be seen. According to players, this should also be an indication that the new champion could indeed be a Vastaya.
