Fleg and Boggin: 'League of Legends' Warwick teaser update reveals new characters

Impact

Over the past week, rumblings about the possibility of an update to League of Legends champion Warwick became real, as an animated teaser showcasing the new and improved version of the blood-obsessed wolfman was released by Riot Games. Perhaps even more interesting, though, is the introduction of Fleg and Boggin, two new characters who learn about Warwick's jungling fury the hard way.

These two new characters have piqued the interest of the League of Legends community. Could they be new additions to the story, new Champions or nothing at all?

Fleg and Boggin: New League of Legends characters revealed

The aforementioned teaser video is shown from the first-person perspective of Fleg, as he attempts to escape from Warwick in an industrial steampunk environment. We never actually see Fleg (save for his arms and hands), but we get some good looks at his friend Boggin, an Orc-like creature toting a big gun. 

Given that their names are only revealed in the video's optional subtitles and they're both immediately killed by Warwick, it seems like they'd be pretty weak as new Champions. However, perhaps they are meant to flesh out the story and we will see them again someday. It'd be interesting to find out what exactly they did to rile up Warwick so much.

Mic has reached out to Riot Games for more information about the two new characters and will update with any response.
