Kind of off topic, but every new champ has been phys DPS (w/ exception of poppy) anyway, seeing as Shaco, Udyr, and Nidalee have come in succession, I'm assuming we're getting a magic character sometime soon. If this is the case, I would be most happy because I enjoy casters greatly over physical damage heroes.

Great line up this week, with two legendaries.
I'd really like to see Kassadin free to try next week, I'm considering buying him, but I gotta try him first.
