I doubt all their LHs are just going to be Sentinels.

I'm hoping we get that Junk inventor.

Yeah I figured there'd be more like him, likely 3-4 more due to the Chinese elements and compass directions.

Good find!

That would make a lot of sense. Saytang is aligned to Azyr (Lore of heavens) and greatly synergies with Yuan Bo. Having more Guardians being aligned with Fire, Life or Beast for example would be great and fit Cathays theme and design philosophy very well. It would also work greatly with the other Dragons like Li Dau or Yin-Yin.

Doesn't exactly paint Cathay's writers as the most creative types does it?

"Who are their LLs?"

"5 dragons."

"Who are their LHs?"

"4 statues."

Don’t forget Monke who might get a Monkey/Tigermen LH.

I don’t expect 4 Guardian LHs personally, but 1 more seems extremely likely. Cathay is all about Harmony and Saytang will likely be Yin considering his Bow and the Azyr alignment. That means we need also one Yang Guardian. Which could be YANGsing.

Nice catch ! I would hate to have another Sentinel LH though.

I am currently hoping for either a strategist LH or a Monk LH for their next DLC.

All possible for Monke but we need at least 1 Yang Sentinel LH for the whole Harmony theme at some point. 

Keen eye you got there. Good job!

I know this may sound redundant to some people, but I really want a Shugengan LH. In essence, either a son or a daughter of one of the Dragons, one that actually aligns magically with their parent's supposed aesthetic. Most prominent example, a son or a daughter of Miao Ying that wields the Lore of Heavens.

If CA keeps the new format then we will likely get 2-3 more Cathay LHs. One could very much be a Shugengan.

Personally I would love the idea of a rogue Shugengan, who grew tired of their Dragon Parents and betrayed them to join the Monkey King. 

Imagine if its one of Li Dao's children betraying him for the Monkey King. That could probably be part of the storyline for the DLC.

Would be a very fitting scheme for Monke to trick one unhappy but ambitious child of Li Dau into betraying their Dragon dad.

Since you also posted about it. Not only was Saytang on that map, we also have another Guardian with Yangsing who will likely end up as another LH at some point.

When I read the Name of the new Cathay LH Saytang, I instantly thought that it sounds familiar. So I checked the Cathay map released for The Old World and realised it. Saytang was right there all the time!

Really like this as a confirmation the big dude isn't coming from nowhere.

Oh wow good find! 

So Saytang isn’t a new character that CA created post-hoc, but probably a character they were saving for later.

I doubt we get multiple giant statue LHs. My guess is Shi-Hong with a custom Sky Junk mount.

Yes, I want the Blind Master so bad. Hope him come with generic egineer heroes as well.

Hopefully Yangsing gets better lore than Saytang. A Guardian of the Wall or Wei Jin would be solid enough lore, and hopefully it doesn't have anything too ridiculous about it.
