See Hecarim come to life in this League of Legends art spotlight

This high-speed art rendition should be enough to convince you that Hacarim, the Shadow of War, isn't just a dark horse. However, Riot Games has been tight-lipped about his abilities, saying only this:

"We here at Riot Games make every effort to ensure that our stable of champions is as diverse as possible. Still, even after the addition of Sejuani to the League of Legends, there are those cavalry enthusiasts out there who would contend that the greatest warriors ride horses. For you purists, we’d like to propose an alternative point of view. It is our opinion that the most epic warriors are themselves at least 50% equine. And as evidence of this theory it is our pleasure to present Hecarim, the Shadow of War.So if you enjoy leveling your lance and charging headlong into the brunt of the enemy ranks leaving only the trampled corpses of lesser foes in your wake, we’re pretty sure that Hecarim, the Shadow of War will have you chomping at the bit come next patch!"

From the looks of the art, this guy could dominate. Are you excited to try him out?
