Rumors: Yunara and the New Darkin Champion

Insider Big Bad Bear has revealed that Yunara will be the new marksman ( ADC ) in League of Legends. Today, he introduced the first comic featuring her, unveiling details of the champion's past and her connection with the Darkin. A full announcement of Yunara is expected as early as next week.

According to the comic, Yunara played a crucial role in an ancient war known as the War of the False Kanmei. To protect Ionia and the First Lands from destruction, she formed an alliance with a mysterious spirit. Together, they fought against great foes threatening her homeland.

The illustrations show silhouettes of opponents—one with a bow, another with a scythe—clear references to Varus and Rhaast. At the climax of the battle, the spirit reveals its true nature: it is a Darkin itself. Together with Yunara, it vanishes from the world—until today.

The comic ends with a hint that Yunara is returning to reality. Some players are already speculating that her initial appearance will be linked to the Spirit Blossom event. In the artwork, she is depicted in a blossoming form, typical of this skin line, and fans are wondering if Spirit Blossom Yunara will be her release skin.

The return of the Darkin theme in League of Legends is generating significant interest within the community. Will Yunara be a full-fledged representative of this ancient race, or will she introduce a new hybrid concept? What will her gameplay be like, and how will she differ from other ADCs?
