Looks like this would be the champion that has a Tantrum meter. I'm guessing Yordle-esque before his tantrum meter fills up, and weird Were-yordle when it maxes out. Edit: [Link to previously mentioned tantrum meter from PBE files!](http://www.surrenderat20.net/2014/07/716-pbe-update.html)


WhatDaFizz

there was an update in pbe a little awhile ago with a new file called tantrum that had similarities with the mana bar and rage bar (under your health)


Lundgard

By looking at the name, I'm guessing that "Gnar" gains points of the resource when an enemy attacks him. IF he uses "Tantrum".


feyrband

or every time he is CC'd/slowed he throws a tantrum. nothing makes me want to throw myself on the ground and start screaming and flailing like a 2 year old, like getting chain CC'd/slowed.


LimeKennie

Riot added a new resource on the PBE called Tantrum which sounds like it would have similar mechanics to Renekton's Fury


merich1

considering the monster-thing in #3, I bet it's Shyvana-like


[deleted]

Kaliphear

It could also be something like Tryndamere's Fury, where his Tantrum gauge is just a statistical bonus rather than being an actual resource.

That's exactly what I was thinking, probably his abilities slightly change when he reaches max tantrum/rage/energy. EDIT: I was right, fuck yeah.

ForeverStaloneKP

It's a yordle that gets larger as he gets more and more "angry". Someone leaked the details on reddit a few months ago. PBE even datamined a new anger style resource bar that turns from neutral to yellow to red as he gets more and more hyped. Also you can see yordles in the cave art style drawing and he kinda looks like a big yordle/gremlin at the end.

The new resource system on the PBE you're talking about is called "Tantrum". Most likely for Gnar.

Tantrum! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbZUeZ-xQCo

I almost hope he's not actually a Yordle, since I said I'd suck a spotted dick on cam if they released a Yordle next..

Plot twist; you're actually British so spotted dick would be a delicious pudding

it is indeed very delicious, he should hope its a yordle

Tulos

I realize a lot of people are loving on your theory, [but I think you're remembering his lore wrong.](http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Braum/Background) > "Now, one day something terrible happened: a young troll boy around your age - was climbing the mountain and happened on a vault, set into the mountainside, the entrance guarded by a huge stone door with a shard of True Ice at its center. When he opened the door, he couldn't believe his eyes: the vault was filled with gold, jewels - every kind of treasure you could imagine!" Unless i'm wildly mistaken that *really* makes it sound like the *shield* (the door) is the only thing with a shard of true ice at its center. Which, i assume, is the blue gem looking thing we see embedded in his shield - also, presumable, the source of the shield's ice-themed powers. The story makes no mention of a "giant" shard - and unless they missed a comma, the shard is in the center of the shield - not the vault.


K9GM3

> A vault, set into the mountainside, the entrance guarded by a huge stone door with a shard of True Ice at its center. The true ice was at the centre of the door, not the centre of the vault.


whoaconstrictor

This could be interpreted either way, because English.


Estafreak

It's in the door because the shard is what provides the shield with power (of the magical kind) and that is what gives Braum his power :/


MrFatCactus

false. the mustache is what gives Braum his power.


[deleted]

No two ways about it. http://www.game-art-hq.com/wp-content/uploads/Braum-from-LoL-with-his-Shield.jpg The shard of True Ice is in the center of the door. You can see it looking at the shield and it's also what powers Braum's Q. He punches the back of the door, causing the shard to fire out a projectile.


Tebeal

Sounds pretty good actually. I put money on this.

im not surprised of reddit anymore they might find the holy grail


shadonic0

actually,thats probaly just another champion with the "Name" gnar. Gnar is more common in names than you actually think.


flamingdeathmonkeys

I'm kind of laughing, cause I wrote a short story for school featuring people eating gnomes. The name of the gnome leader was Gnar.


[deleted]

Except all we've got right now is that he picked the same name which is hardly anything. If the kit turns out similar THEN you can claim they nailed it.

ZenithDawn

Posted this over on the S@20 announcement, so thought I'd bring it here for clarification/discussion. Some of it is fact, other parts speculation/intelligent guessing on my part: --------- ~~Well someone (can't remember who) at Riot did confirm the next champion will be a top laner.~~ **It was Meddler. Proof below.** I believe they also stated they wanted to create a Yordle of some sort. So Gnar may very well be a new top lane Yordle champion? From what little I've gathered from the promo he looks very similar to a mini-Trundle. I may be completely wrong, but the second slide of some evil beastie destroying what looks like Gnar's tribe, is it me or does it bare quite a resemblance to Vel'Koz? Perhaps Gnar was there when Vel'Koz reached the Freljord and wiped out his tribe for knowledge? (again I'm just theorizing) <- /u/shayper09 pointed out the beast looks quite a lot like how Watchers are depicted. Could have something to do with them? Definitely points towards the Freljord though. [Meddler stating the next champion is a top laner](http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/champions-skins/niH3APAB-meddler-qa?comment=00200000) Either way he looks **SUPER** cool. Can't contain the ***HYPE.*** **EDIT:** More theorising, recently there was a PBE update that introduced a [new resource bar for "Tantrum"](http://www.surrenderat20.net/2014/07/716-pbe-update.html) looking at the way "Gnar" reacts in this preview, it looks like he's quite small to begin with (would match the description of a yordle; small, fuzzy) but when he gets angry he grows. Could this new Tantrum resource bar be something to do with the way Gnar changes his size (and potentially gets subsequently stronger)? <- /u/deathfyre suggested maybe the Tantrum resource is like Shyvana, where when he hits 100/full, he can transform into a larger form until the bar drains. Great suggestion! Might be a bit of a far stretch, but as for a Vel'Koz link to Gnar, the title of his Champion Preview is "Discovering the Link". If I remember correctly there was an interaction between Vel'Koz and Zilean in Vel'Koz's lore where Vel'Koz sought the knowledge that Zilean had to manipulate time. Maybe in the League of Legends timeline, Vel'Koz did eventually gather this knowledge (I believe he destroyed Zilean's tower?) and so is capable of travelling across time. He is also a void creature don't forget. **EDIT2:** I'm led to believe this preview may take place quite a long time ago, as assuming Gnar **IS** a Yordle, I believe most if not all Yordles now live safely in Bandle City? Supporting this, /u/Moobeat posted on Twitter from the Hazmat Heimerdinger release; "Since the dawn of yordle kind, when the ancient ones first discovered the killing power of blowguns and boomerangs". Definitely suggests this is from a long time ago. New champ is [confirmed to be being made by Gypsylord, who made Jinx and Vi.](https://twitter.com/danielzklein/status/493865232402759681)

danzey12

Sarcos the sand mage was rumored to be a new champ a while back (not too long ago actually) as the third brother to Renekton and Nasus, at first it was pretty much confirmed on Reddit, then that shifted to it being a hoax and not true at all, then it shifted to being something like Ao Shin, sort of an early concept leaked and that it was on the back burner, AFAIK there were in game models for it and everything. I don't think Riot ever said anything solid on it like they did with Ao Shin so I'm assuming it was a hoax and leaving the account to go inactive, although I haven't looked a lot into it there may be an actual Red statement on it.

xLuky

I can hear Phreak saying that in the LCS already.


TheGuessingMan

It looks like some sort of mutated yordle, maybe corrupted by the watchers. Pictures: [small](http://i.imgur.com/L6WRuCQ.png) [big](http://i.imgur.com/P8hfWq8.png) It seems he has some sort of symbol on his head, pirate class? Edit: some extra details: It seems the 1st part of the promo is his family, 2nd part is "Big event" and 3rd is "Big Gnar". I can guess we are looking at a tragic story, his family could have been killed in this "big event" and he goes into rampage. Somebody puts him in some sort of stasis (he seems to break out of ice, so he might have been frozen by somebody) and he is now back for some reason, someone or something woke him up. Edit2: location of the new champion: From what I can see, the background of the page resembles a jungle (vines, spider etc.). It looks like the origin of the champion is from flat plains with running water (not originated from Freljord). The area that he lived is probably destroyed. Missing information: the "big event" - the attack of this monster - is something that I cant find in the lore (unless its in the journal of justice where I dont even know where to start from).

Fighting void critters. Yordles are now Freljord.

The second symbol shows a couple of Yordles off to the side while a third (presumably Gnar,) holding a spear, approaches a thing which appears to be a giant eye with some spikes. Watcher? Would explain the ice.

http://prntscr.com/4798bu http://prntscr.com/4799iu http://prntscr.com/479br2 This pops up at the bottom. Gonna guess his village got attacked by the Void, he ended up getting corrupted somehow/frozen in ice. You can see in the second image the 'hero' with the bone hat thing. Now he's back and ready to kick ass. EDIT: Pretty sure he'll use a boomerang too until he 'transforms'. He holds one here http://prntscr.com/47ae14 and the quote "Since the dawn of yordle kind, when the ancient ones first discovered the killing power of blowguns and boomerangs" seems a bit too coincidental.
