Recently, an artwork depicting the Sentinels of Light – representing the upcoming High Noon skin line in League of Legends, has been circulating at lightning speed. The content of the artwork portrays an important strategic meeting of the Sentinels, presumably to prepare for the upcoming Ruination battle. More importantly, according to reliable sources, this is the most comprehensive image of the members of the order.
Alongside Lucian, Senna, Gwen, Irelia, Riven, Diana, Olaf, and Vayne – the champions confirmed as members of the order, this artwork also features the new champions Akshan, Graves, Pyke, and Rengar. The list of characters from left to right in a clockwise direction is as follows:
+ Akshan – Shurima. (Default skin)
+ Pyke – Bilgewater.
+ Riven – Noxus.
+ Irelia – Ionia.
+ Gwen – Camavor (Possibly an unofficial member).
+ Lucian and Senna – Demacia. (Default skin)
+ Graves – Bilgewater.
+ Diana – Targon.
+ Olaf – Freljord.
+ Vayne – Demacia.
+ Rengar – Ixtal. (For those who forgot: Ixtal is a newly added region in League of Legends, once a vassal of the ancient Shurima Empire, famous for its elemental magic and the homeland of the champion Qiyana)
Thus, if we string together the data, we can envision the release roadmap for the second wave of the High Noon skin line, featuring the appearance of Akshan (default skin), along with the joining of 3 other members: Graves, Pyke, and Rengar.
Interestingly, all 3 new members of the Sentinels of Light are champions with “anti-hero” storylines; they are not exactly heroes fighting for righteousness, but they still have the capacity to join the Sentinel squad for various reasons: enlightenment, fighting for personal goals, or sharing common enemies…
The Sentinels of Light are said to have a formation motif quite similar to The Avengers of the Marvel universe; however, the Western gaming community believes that the image of the Sentinels of Light bears many similarities to the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.
Nevertheless, the most important aspect is that the new information about this order further affirms the scale of the Ruination event, indicating that this will be an event that impacts the entire lore universe of League of Legends.
