New LoL Champion - Ambessa Medarda Model Leaked
Ambessa Medarda will supposedly be the first Arcane character to be turned into a League of Legends champion. This is different from the usual process because champions such as Jinx, Vi, Caitlyn, and many others were already part of the game before the show started. Silco briefly joined TFT (before allegedly being transformed into Renata Glask for Summoner's Rift). Ambessa Medarda will be a permanent champion in the LoL universe.
In LoL, Ambessa Medarda is rumored to be a tank top laner. The leaked champion model is from Wild Rift, meaning she'll look identical on Summoner's Rift. She's wearing heavy armor, a golden mask, and axe-like gloves.

Community Reactions
This is not the first time the League of Legends community has heard about the news of Ambessa Medarda joining the roster of champions. The first time around, a lot of people weren't thrilled, as she's not a fan-favorite or memorable character compared to Silco and Sevika.
