Are you ready to meet our next champion, Kha'Zix, the Voidreaver?
Void Assassin? Don't mind if I do!
"If you take the time to examine the many wonders of nature, you’ll find a fair number of animals that are remarkably well-adapted to their environment. It isn’t every day, however, that you run across a creature that can adapt to every environment.
Feast your eyes on this fine specimen here. Meet Kha’Zix, the Voidreaver – the most highly-evolved champion yet to grace the Fields of Justice. Maybe you’re marveling at the iridescent wings or the intimidating spike racks? Well, you’ll find that’s just one of many possible evolutionary paths your Voidreaver can take. Perhaps some adaptive camouflage and wicked, scythe-like claws might be more appropriate to your particular hunting ground. Whichever evolutions you choose to manifest, you’ll find Kha’Zix has just the tools you need to viciously slaughter unsuspecting prey.
If you’re the kind of assassin that’s always ready to adapt, evolve, and overcome, you’ll want to keep an eye on the latest addition to the Void lineup."
On to the handful of red posts about Kha'Zix.
Morello shot down the idea that this is an update of the long cancelled champion Omen by saying:
"Nothing to do with Omen at all, though this is way cooler"Phreak mentioned that "Teek was the placeholder name for Kha'Zix.".... and our list of 6-8 PBE leaked champions is reduced to one.
FIRST! ah!
ReplyDeleteHi mom!
Ye gj now a better suited for first place comment,
Delete"That scratches our last 6-8 PBE leaked champion off the list!"
What about Seth?

DeleteCHAMPION ABILITIES DESCRIPTION LEAK.
You're all welcome ;)
If this is true then niceee. His ultimate sounds like lifestealer ulti from DotA and also that passive is siiiick!
DeleteSweet mother of a holy jesus.
DeleteThat passive sounds bloody awesome.
This is a long awaited insect-type and void assassin in one.
The ultimate is very similar to what I wanted to see in the League some day.
can't wait :O
It's fake, or rather it was just an idea that someone posted.

ReplyDeleteneeds an alien skin
ReplyDeleteTHIS! Then he must face Rengar in the jungle!
DeleteYes! I want this so much!
DeleteAnother jungler?
ReplyDeleteKha'zix vs Rengar...
ReplyDeleteThat would be epic
btw it could be the alienish thing in the Rengar lore
Alien Vs Predator?
DeleteHell yea. Those would be amazing skins.
Deleteyea it is...rengar hes predator skin..and this thing will have alien skin
DeleteDude... The "alien" from Rengar's lore is CHO'GATH.
DeleteDude... Cho doesn't have scythe-like claws, but this guy does, this IS the one in Rengar's lore
DeleteWhile it's quite likely that this is the creature from Rengar's lore, Cho does have scythe-like claws Jed
DeleteIt's this guy, Cho didn't have a hidden passive with Rengar. More then likely this guy will
DeleteNot necessary. Graves and TF had no special interaction with each other, nor had Diana and Leona.
Delete^ *necessarily
DeleteNot 100% sure but isn't cho "only" allowed on the Fields of Justice not out and about? From what I recall the lore wouldn't go back before cho was found
Delete? Kha'Zix is likely Rengar's enemy. Be cool if they had an interaction. Funny how Graves and Noc do.
morello confirmed that khazix is the one in rengar's lore
DeleteI don't see him confirming that...
DeleteAnywhere...
I played Rengar VS Cho gath top and there WAS a secret passive the first time he came into my vision range Cho said : We meet again .
DeleteO.O ( o )( o )
ReplyDeletefinally a champ that makes me go "oh shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit"
ReplyDeletelooks like he has some fun mechanics centered around choosing different skill paths... maybe its like... "level up q and your next level of w is different, or level up w first and your next of q is different
-eriq
I am almost certain that you are wrong, probably the only choosable spell would be his R
DeleteMy guess is that the mechanic will be item dependant, i.e. you stack hp, he gets better skin, you stack ad he gets claws, you stack ms he gets wings & so on
"Stack MS"
Delete......
What? :p Hecarim has a ms scaling ability already (and that's how i tested him in the first game xD)
Delete^ probably failed miserably
DeleteNo, it was fun :p You can rush in use Q to dish out damage and rush out before the enemy can really react. Plus you have one of the greatest initiates with his R. Alo note that stacking MS doesn't mean 5x boots and PD but a solid build with Trinity and other goodies.
DeleteOfc... tossing an alternate build as fail before even testing it is a valid performance today :p As people did with ap Heca.
You may go and troll somewhere else now anon dude (And I won't go further into the discussion if you don't even show your name btw).
"Perhaps some adaptive camouflage and wicked, >>scythe-like claws <> hunting ground<<. Whichever evolutions you choose to manifest, you’ll find Kha’Zix has just the tools you need to viciously slaughter unsuspecting prey.
ReplyDeleteIf you’re the kind of assassin that’s always ready to adapt, evolve, and overcome, you’ll want to keep >>an eye<< on the latest addition to the Void lineup.""
And i though that was Cho Gath on Rengar's Lore...
I think Lolwhut was referring to the fact that according to Cho's lore, the summoners have him confined to the institute, and as such could not have been the one in Rengar's lore
Delete^ exactly. I always lol when people ignore facts to believe whatever dream they first come up with.
DeleteThere is literally no possibility of Cho being Rengar's enemy because Cho has never ever ever walked Valoran. The first time he saw it he was summoned directly into the Institute.
OMFG YESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! SO GLAD I SKIPPED RENGAR AND SYNDRA
ReplyDeleteI don't skip any champs. I have them all. =D
DeleteI never have trouble getting atleast 13K between each release, enough for the new champ and some random 3150
DeleteLol same I can "afford" any champs, I just wasnt feeling syndra so skipped her. Definitely have Rengar he is one of my favs. BUT if they buff Syndra then I will consider it. And definitely getting this new champ for sure!
DeleteWhy skip any champs... just buy them all! more choice
DeleteAgreed
DeleteDON'T BUFF SYNDRA!!! She is so op! I can own anyone with her I mean anyone. She's just harder to play... Though there are harder more complicated champs that people dont seem to want buffed
DeleteHis skills probably change his form somehow.
ReplyDeleteHis little description shows that he evolves over time.
Deletei have a feeling he will change in a similar way to PF ezreal. although the sneek peak does suggest some choice. looking forward to seeing how this pans out
DeleteI never say this but... INSTABUY! Holy freaking balls, PURE BADASS!
ReplyDeleteJust when things seemed their bleakest, he encountered the monster. It was a disturbing, alien thing, distinctly out of place in his world. It bore huge scything claws and devoured any animal that strayed across its path
ReplyDeleteRengars Lore...Riot OP
AHHHH>.<
ReplyDeleteI don't think that THIS is the champion in Rengar's lore .
ReplyDeleteBecause Cho'gath fits the description just as much, if not more than this new champ .
But it is still a possibility !
Glad to see Riot making all these champions with different abilities instead of basic QWER kits .
"bore huge scything claws"
Delete" Perhaps some adaptive camouflage and wicked, scythe-like claws might be more appropriate to your particular hunting ground. Whichever evolutions you choose to manifest, you’ll find Kha’Zix has just the tools you need to viciously slaughter unsuspecting prey"
The fight that Rengars lore mentioned was vicious and savage,it fits more with Khazix than with Cho
The only flaw in your argument is that the lore states cho'gath is kept imprisoned at all times at the institute of war.
DeleteAlso cho'gath has never explicitly been stated to have scythe claws.
"and devoured any animal that strayed across its path".
DeleteIt's just a matter of perspective. try to see others beforing insta-locking yours.
But Cho is known for "feasting" . For all we know, this champ doesn't even lick anyone, not until we see a skill kit .
DeleteAnd in Rengars Champion Spotlight, Cho is used as the combat puppet to display Rengars abilities .
What is he doing in his picture other than devouring something
DeleteAm I the only one who thought the alien in Rengar's lore was Kog'Maw? I mean seriously... Kog'Maw's lore even mentioned "he explored the fruits of the strange world the only way he knew how: by devouring them."... Followed by "he came upon a tribe of nomads." ... Rengar's lore specifically mentions that. I'm honestly shocked no one has mentioned Kog'Maw in this entire comment thread
DeleteSeems as though all void beasts eat stuff -.-
DeleteBut Rengar lost the fight, the beast got away. Rengar has Kog's skull.
Deletethis champ is obviously the champ that was listed in rengars lore.
Delete1. this is all a play on alien vs predator (rengar being the pred and this one being the alien).
2. there is proof that this thing is devouring creatures (the photo shows it doing such).
3. they wouldn't put so much emphasis on the scythe-like claws if it weren't.
and also, the aliens from all the movies were constantly evolving and adapting (which is what this champ is focusing around).
i'd be more likely to believe that graves is the one from rengars lore than i would cho. graves doesnt fit in rengars beast world because he is human. that and when graves were to have "beaten" rengar, he could have taken his necklace and thats why graves has it on in his splash art. now true, graves wouldnt be an alien creature to him because he was raised by human beings, but cho doesnt have emphasis on the claws and is at all times locked away. before he was locked away, he was in the void. i doubt that he would have left, kicked the crap out of rengar and then returned. seems a lil pointless to me....
Delete"Rengar has Kog's skull." No... That's Baron's skull, next to Dragon's skull
DeleteThis champions looks really cool. I guess his ingame model evolves everytime you level an ability, or when he uses them. Gotta know him better; last time I got this excited seeing a Champion Sneak Peek was Darius'.
ReplyDeleteSounds like he'll be even more versatile than Jayce =D
ReplyDeleteantone else know that this is,
ReplyDelete....
....

OMEN!!!! and for those of u who dont know who omen is he was a previously shelved champion that was shcedueld to possibly come out at a later date well HERE HE IS!!! :DDDDDDDDDD
They maybe took some features of Omen or some knowlege by him. But he doesn't look like Omen and neither has a "long toungue". And I know Omen pretty good my Sir.
Delete"Nothing to do with Omen at all, though this is way cooler"
DeleteI started this post what I meant is they reworked omen Into kha zix
DeleteChamps aren't developed in 2 weeks. The leak of Teek should be around the same time Omen was cancelled as far as I can remember btw (Too lazy to check exact dates atm). That suggests those are indeed 2 different champions. And that aside, what that anon said, Morello said they had no connection, you can check that in the sneak back announcement thread.
DeleteAdaptive gameplay.
ReplyDeleteSold.
Appearances aside, have you all forgot how Riot dropped the ball with Viktor? Please try not to get carried away with the hype of a new (and fucking awesome) looking champion.
ReplyDeleteTold my friends 2 months ago this would happen.... They said it won't, who's laughing now.
ReplyDeleteI just want to point out that in the thread about archetypes, Morello responded and pointed out that a shape-shifter is coming out relatively soon (this was a few months back). So this champion probably is the shape-shifter, whatever that may mean in Riot Terms.
ReplyDeleteWow. For once a champ who wasn't leaked 2 weeks in advance.
ReplyDeleteI thought.. Cho'gath was the one in the lore. WELL, i'll be honest. I thought it was Venom from Spiderman. And then I saw more things protruding from it and then the antennae and..
ReplyDeleteHoly crap this thing is scary looking.
Cho'gath Cousin!! or maybe his nephew... or his brother... or well his ummmm grandmother?
ReplyDeleteIt is his Grandpapa, it was confirmed in a post made by Phreak.
DeleteNo but seriously, these kinds of speculation make my clench my butthole.
Me*
DeleteI think it's the "daddy" that Kog' Maw mentions in his "Terror coming, daddy coming" taunt: video of the taunt >>>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhYzHkdadUQ
Delete"I think it's the "daddy" that Kog' Maw mentions in his "Terror coming, daddy coming" " i saw many casseroles smarter than you, Kog say daddy coming like ppl say "whose your daddy ?" (no they don't want to meet your dad). it's like saying Annie "have you seen my bear tibbers ?" say this because she cannot find him... she say it like kids want to show her favourite toy to the elders, (yes annie it's really nice bear)
DeleteThe thing is, then she show you her bear (it whacks you in the face), so why can't kong maw show you his daddy, anyway, in the past, riot has said that they were working on this "daddy" of kog'maw, I dont know if this is it yet, but it is a possibility
DeleteI don't Nerdgasm all that much.
ReplyDeleteBut when i do, i squeal like a school girl.
Lmao xD With you on that one, I hope this powers are as awesome as he looks.
DeleteI just happened to be watching the old Spider-man animated show. Episode with Venom and Carnage to be precise. Imagine my surprise when I saw this and thought I was tripping balls.
ReplyDeletehttp://goo.gl/aPlES
DeleteClose enough?
dafuq i read spice racks lol.
ReplyDeleteTake.
ReplyDeleteMy.
Money.
was wondering when they were going to do a warhammer 40k champ
ReplyDeletecool to see a tyranid in this game
please keep feeding my xenophilia riot
they did do a 40k champ. abyssal nautilus. chaos space marine.
DeleteAnd Viktor, the Techpriest :P
DeleteJayce seems W40k inspired as well. That hammer!
Deletelooks like a lictor somewhat, imo. http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110726010334/warhammer40k/images/a/af/Lictor.jpg
Deletebtw isnt cho a semi-carnifex anyway
for me darius got similar apperance to the wh40k armors (SM)
DeleteLately.... they've been releasing Champs closer related to each other without some sort of gap. Darius, then his Brother... Rengar, now his nemesis.
ReplyDeleteWell Syndra was released in between them.
Deletedaddy?
ReplyDeleteFinally we get Kass's daughter!
ReplyDeleteO_o
Deleteyou guys will argue about anything. in rengars lore the beast took rengars eye but rengar left him a scar as well. notice how khazix has only one 'antennae' as well. this is the alien vs predator lore/champ
ReplyDeleteWhat? Kha'zix has two antennae. They also seem to be of equal size and shape, so I don't see what you are talking about.
DeleteHe has 2.... the other antennae is right beside his right shoulder spikes.
ReplyDeleteoooooooooooo i didnt see the left one so well. i beg your pardon
DeleteAlien vs Predator !!
ReplyDeleteDont call him Omen. Its not.
ReplyDeleteComfirmed by a red on reddit. Kassadin is the mother of this beast... Yeah.... Red post is now considered canon..-eriq
ReplyDeleteWhats he eating? a spider?
ReplyDeletehints to a broodmother like champion? yes please!
Its Kogs daddy
ReplyDeleteyes i thought of it first when i saw him
DeleteOmen! Omen! Omen! Omen!
ReplyDeletehe is a bug
ReplyDeleteLike I said. No Omen.
ReplyDeleteAnub'arak 75 % but he looks cool :D
ReplyDeleteKha'zix eating Priscilla the Spider Queen..so that's why they cancelled that champion..LOL! :))
ReplyDeleteinb4 its another melee dps can jungle but mostly top champ.
ReplyDeleteI need go get RP I have only 246 ip:(
ReplyDeleteSomehow i think of him as Nocturnes brother ... no1 else think so? ;)
ReplyDeleteNoct came from dreams and nightmares, He is of the Void.
Deletewell on this pixx he looks like Noct but with teeth and a better outfit ... paron armor ;)
DeletePut a Void Nocturne skin and you have Kha'Zix's cousin ^^
DeleteThis is the guy who uses the "infest" moveset that we saw a while back.
ReplyDeletecould possibly have a venom-like skin too perhaps? the facial features between the two seem a bit similiar to me...
ReplyDeleteI will lol so hard if he comes out looking that badass and they reveal him as a support XD
ReplyDeletep.s. need moar supports riot
There is going to be one more Support this year, it's already confirmed by Riot.
Delete...and the theory that every void related champion name have to have "A" as a 5th letter went down to the toilet.
ReplyDeleteMorello shot down the idea that this is an update of the long cancelled champion Omen by saying:
ReplyDelete"Nothing to do with Omen at all, though this is way cooler"
Phreak mentioned that "Teek was the placeholder name for Kha'Zix.".... and our list of 6-8 PBE leaked champions is reduced to one.
Because he isn't Omen... He is Teek
Now this is wicked, I'm waiting to see his abilities. I think I'll buy this champ.
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one that do not think it's an alien, but more like a giant bug?
ReplyDeleteJust like cho'gath looks like a mantis. He even came from the void, so his story line is probably more in common with cho'gath, BUT in the storyline of rengar, it's says that he was huntin cho. Mmmmh
Yea, casimir /it sounds similiar/ will be insect. Trust me, Hamengeri speaking
DeleteIt does look like some sort of mutated zerg mantis alien.
DeleteHe's a giant Zergling XD
DeleteI kinda hope it's an efficient hybrid assassin that can go top, mid, or jungle.
ReplyDeleteAnd is the last PBE leaked champion "hexmage"?
Jayce was hex mage, last one is Seth the sand man.
Deletenow that's just dumb. jayce hexmage? seriously. not even in a freaking million years. how is jayce a mage in the first place?
Deletei dont see Jayce relating to mage, but i see him relating to hex
DeleteSince Riot seems to have lost any skills of making Champs viable but not OP I have no high hopes for this one... he will either be OP bullshit like Diana or useless crap like Syndra. But yeah just keep flooding us with new champs and don't bother fixing the previous.
ReplyDeleteThis may have been said already. But from the comments i read everyone is saying that maybe his skills have to do with items or lalala. Am I the only one that thinks he could be like Jayce o.o? Where as his R maybe changes his shape and form and he gets different skills along with it. I dunno just a guess. Regardless what hes actually like, just from the description of him hes already my most anticipated champion in a long time lol.
ReplyDeleteperhaps its like jayce, or maybe like udyr, or something to do with his passive, lets wait and see
DeleteBUT GUYS... TEEK = RENGAR .. :C
ReplyDeletePlease not another Assassin or Jungler.
ReplyDeleteWhen was the last assassin? I hardly count rengar as one.
DeleteWait a sec, which one is the last of the pbe leaked list Seth or Hexmage?
ReplyDeleteKha'zix starts as a melee.
ReplyDeletePassive - Hyperevolving Carapace: Every time you level up Kha'zix's ultimate, his next ability use will enhance him in a certain way for the rest of the game. He can enhance one ability twice and another once, or he can enhance each ability once. (He can't enhance one ability 3 times). Each enhancement visibly changes him.
Q - Vicious Slivers: Kha'zix fires spikes in a line, dealing damage and shredding armor of hit enemies. (medium cooldown)
ENHANCED 1: His attacks are now ranged.
ENHANCED 2: His spikes become stronger, increasing his range and causing his autoattacks to now deal 1.2x damage
W - Exoskull Burst:
Passive - His armor plates respond to oppression, becoming more powerful as he is attacked. Kha'zix temporarily gains armor for each autoattack he takes, stacking up to 5 times.
Active - Kha'zix violently sheds his exoskeleton, refreshing his stacks and dealing damage per stack in an AoE.
ENHANCED 1: Kha'zix permanently makes his exoskeleton stronger, passively increasing armor/MR and allowing his W passive to stack up to 10 times. Exoskull Burst now applies Grievous Wounds upon use.
ENHANCED 2: Kha'zix now retains his armor stacks upon cast.
E - Void Passing: Kha'zix leaps to a targetted nearby location.
ENHANCED 1: Kha'zix grows wings, permanently increasing his speed and increasing the range and travel speed of his E.
ENHANCED 2: Kha'zixs' wings become extremely powerful through evolution, further increasing his speed and E range causing his E to stun nearby enemies for a short duration on cast
R - Burrowing Terror: Kha'zix burrows into the ground, becoming untargetable for a short duration and slowing enemies above him as he moves. Upon expiry or recast, he bursts forth from the crust of the earth, dealing damage to enemies in the area affected.
uhh this sounds promising ... like rengar or jayce - the 4 spells turn into 12? Hes gonna be like Nocutre only you will be able to change his looks with his attacks *champ fit for a girl* ;)
DeleteClose. I expect sth better but style is correct.
DeleteHMM... i suspect something. maybe his theme is sort of a dna hunter. i mean look, he is eating a bug and now has wings and antenae. Maybe his mission in the league in the long run is to absorb the powers from the champions. A sort of void kroot
DeleteSb staded that mechanic like this is toxic, sorry. I'd love sth like this, too. Skillstealing, ahhh <3
DeleteIs that legit? Cuz I love the mass of skills Jayce delivers! Now I just have to hope my Syndra (worst AP EVER) refund gets through in time, lol.
Deletefake
DeleteThis was brought up higher up on this page, and yes, it's fake. Though very, very awesome.
Delete-Raph
Purple.
ReplyDeleteGlowing eyes.
I sense OP!
Well one of the weakest Champs ever released (Syndra) has purple eyes too, so...
DeleteOMG SYNDRA IS NOT WEAK :O
DeleteTrue, weak would be a compliment for this failed experiment. Worst winrate of any Champ ever, new Eve Tier material I say.
DeleteMaking assumptions after that timeframe. Genius ;D You can do so many cool things with Syndra. She's not a burstmage or a classical ap carry. She's different and needs to be played different to be effective.
DeleteThat aside she has incredible synergy with some champs ;) Go try to find them and you might come to the conclusion that Syndra is more than okay compared to the 3 plays with standardbuild.
People still playing Syndra should get reported for trolling. You are effectively handing mid lane to the enemy team for free and are completely useless in lategame.
DeleteSHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY! i always wanted an insect-type champ
ReplyDeleteLooks interesting I love the option of choices! It's good they're making champs that you can choose how to evolve your playstyle since so many people look down upon experimenting with builds.
ReplyDelete"and our list of 6-8 PBE leaked champions is reduced to one. "
ReplyDeleteYou mean 2, we haven't seen anything of "Hexmage" or "Seth" yet.
Dark Sovereign - Syndra
Diana
Xara - Zyra
Teek - Kha'Zix
hexmage=jayce
Deletenever.
Deletei think there was a leaked champ that can use elemental magic like water fire air and so on..
DeleteRiot plz seth=support
ReplyDeletewho fed chogath nocturne?
ReplyDeleteFusion?
DeleteI need a support, Seth just doesn't sound fitting...
ReplyDeleteSyndra can be played as support
ReplyDeleteThanks to SIV HD for showing me that she is not an usless champion
INSTA-BUY for this void champ by the way
