Riot Games' newest expansion to the mobile MOBA subgenre has received a lot of positive feedback from the gaming community. The mobile version of League of Legends is currently in the open beta phase and offers a limited champion pool. Players have been asking for more champions to be added to the game so as to diversify their playstyle.

Their wish may be granted soon.

An alleged leak on Twitter showcases a list of 42 champions that might be coming to the game soon.

Sources allege 42 champions could make their way into League of Legends: Wild Rift in future updates

League of Legends: Wild Rift has been a successful endeavor so far. Several key points on the map, champions, items have been reworked to provide players with a more enjoyable experience of the game. But one thing that the game lacks is the massive champion pool of its PC counterpart.

Currently, the game has a small number of champions that have been optimized for mobile. This could become stale for someone who has been continuously grinding the game in the open beta.

Here is a possible list of champions who could be making their way into Wild Rift according to the source:

1. Kindred
2. Hecarim
3. Nidalee
4. Xayah
5. Thresh
6. Karma
7. Jayce
8. Swain
9. Teemo
10. Katarina
11. Kennen
12. Leona
13. Darius
14. Galio
15. Lucian
16. Irelia
17. Wukong
18. Kayle
19. Taliyah
20. Riven
21. Yorick
22. Vladimir
23. Illaoi
24. Rakan
25. Quinn
26. Taric
27. Neeko
28. Twitch
29. Ekko
30. Elise
31. Rammus
32. Corki
33. Kayn
34. Kalista
35. Poppy
36. Heimerdinger
37. Diana
38. Pantheon
39. Gnar
40. Draven
41. Bard

If these champions are pushed into the game with a future update, many players who left after the beta might return to the game to try them out. This move would also diversify the existing meta of the game and make for some interesting games on the Rift.
