2XKO character bios (Alpha Lab 2)

The 2XKO Alpha Lab 2 playtest goes from April 18 and April 20! Read on for a closer look at the available 2XKO characters and their bios, courtesy of Riot Games.

The 2XKO Alpha Lab 2 playtest features seven League of Legends champions. They are Jinx, Ahri, Braum, Darius, Ekko, Illaoi, and Yasuo. Jinx, in particular, is new to the Alpha Lab roster. Below are the official character bios for all of them.

With an arsenal of custom guns, traps, and explosives, Jinx unleashes mayhem wherever she goes. She excels at zoning enemies, overwhelming them with colorful destruction from afar.

Ahri is a fox-like vastaya of breathtaking grace and beauty, as well as explosive magical power and speed. Her empathic abilities have allowed her to discover the truth within the hearts of people, enough to appreciate the beauty and danger in humanity, and to define herself as something different.

As Ahri strives to find her place in the world, she believes her lost Vastayan tribe could answer the questions of who she truly is and what she could become.

Blessed with massive biceps and an even bigger heart, Braum is a beloved Iceborn hero of the Freljord. Every hall north of Frostheld toasts his legendary strength and tells tales of how he felled a forest of oaks in a single night, and punched an entire mountain into rubble.

With his shield, an enchanted vault door forged in ages past, Braum roams the frozen north as a cheerful protector, helping the vulnerable with a smile on his face and a poro on his shoulder.

There is no greater symbol of Noxian might than Darius, the nation’s most feared and battle-hardened leader. Rising from humble origins to become the Hand of Noxus, he cleaves through the empire’s enemies with power and precision.

Darius has no doubt that the cause of Noxus is just, and never hesitates once his axe is raised. Those who stand against the commander of the Trifarian Legion can expect no mercy.

A prodigy from the rough streets of Zaun, Ekko manipulates time to twist any situation to his advantage. Using his own invention, the Z-Drive, he explores the branching possibilities of reality to craft the perfect moment.

Though he revels in this freedom, when there’s a threat to his friends, he’ll do anything to defend them. To outsiders, Ekko seems to achieve the impossible first time, every time.

Illaoi’s powerful physique is dwarfed only by her indomitable faith and capacity for joy. As the prophet of the Great Kraken, she administers The Test to those of questionable spirit. She wields a huge, golden idol to rip their souls from their bodies and make them fight for life anew.

All who challenge the "Truth Bearer of Nagakabouros" soon discover that despite her incredible might, Illaoi never battles alone as the god of the Serpent Isles fights by her side.

Yasuo is an agile swordsman who wields the air itself against his enemies. As a proud young Ionian, he was falsely accused of murdering his master. After escaping in an attempt to clear his own name, he was forced to slay his own brother, Yone, in self-defense.

Though the true killer of his master was later revealed, Yasuo is haunted by his actions, unable to forgive himself for all he has done. Now he wanders the land with only the wind to guide his blade.
