Is Lee Sin, The Blind Monk, real or April Fools?

Posted on at 12:30 AM by Moobeat


 The Blink Monk may finally be coming to fruition. The fabled champion spotlight was released show casing Lee Sin's art. Just as with the original announcement, it was laced with Urf. For those ignorant to the might that is Urf, Urf was fish and spatula wielding manatee that was due to enter the league but met an early demise. Obviously an April Fools Joke, his presence in all of Lee Sin's information makes it hard to believe that Riot isn't just pulling our chains.

One popular belief supported by the forums is that Lee Sin will meet the same fate as Urf and be forever remembered as an exclusive skin. Warwick currently sports a skin where he dons the carcass of the late Urf. The art below, from the champion announcement, resembles Xin Zhao, a popular candidate.


Be us fools for believeing he is real or not, here is the new champion art spotlight.

    also: Been here since beta. I have 4 beta accounts with rammus skins =D. I have since made more than 40 smurfs to help others play that I introduce to the game

    probably around 2000 games played. The reset when beta ended really hurt, I had gambled up all the runes into full sets =(

    Xailion purchased half the champions when the store came out.

    Got all the rune pages and probably half the runes and half the champions unlocked.

    What champion do you never play? Mine is Twisted Fate. Also Morgana, Also Singed

    kk bai

    Twisted Fate is my guilty pleasure. I'm soooooo bad at it yet I love the idea of the character. Until about a month ago Teemo was the same way.. since then I've pilled on about 100 games as him.
