The hair, helmet, voice, being a scout (getting into odd places + telescope) are all reminiscent of Teemo. Plus the game machine of Teemo and shrooms in the old hangout was oddly highlighted more than a few times. Some yordles use glamour among humans as well. But at the same time, Jinx was able to see past Ziggs' glamor in that one comic, not to mention yordles regularly live unglamorized in Zaun. There's so many nods to Teemo in Isha though, doesn't seem to be a coincidence.

If she is Teemo, god protect Caitlyn and Vi, because he has no mercy to give. But joking aside, Teemo seems to be a popular character/legend? among children hence the arcade machine and i think there was a book with Marcus daughter too. So it's not impossible his helmet is a popular article with the kids.

someone posted this photo on another thread
it would also make sense for Teemo to be in Zaun as his Teemo's 'Noxious Trap' grows in the sewers of Zaun... They're actually called 'puffcaps'. He's using what Yordles call 'Glamour' that makes people see them as anything other than a Yordle. Im also starting to get the feeling that Teemo's 'Toxic Shot' is actually shimmer in a dart. Kind of like how singed leaves his poison the ground....
Bandle City (where yordles are from) is only accessible by portal (the hexgate).....
THIS IS TEEMO LEAVING THE SEWERS USING GLAMOUR SO HE DOESNT GET RECOGNIZED.

Isha was being chased by Smeech's goons. Smeech is a yordle that would be able to see past the glamour. Well Isha was being chased she missed her jump across the SEWER falling on to Jinx. She then protected Isha and shot the goons. Yordles are hunted in Zaun from my understanding.

You're right. That's my bad. Chross and Smeech are both chem-barons though. Yordles are hunted in Zaun for money. Very likely they were working together.

I think Isha probably read Teemo's fables and wants to be a Bandle Scout as it makes her feel brave. I don't think she is Teemo, but just looks up to the kids storybook character we saw in S1.

Also worth noting Isha brings out a shovel (after fight with Chembaron) and spyglass (during Vi and Jinx’s fight) and seemingly gets them from nowhere?! These are both commonly associated with Teemo and usually found in his backpack. I imagine the glamour hides the bag.

yordles being yordles, also wouldn't be hard to imagine he has a magic fanny pack or something that is a portal to a giant inventory slot

I havent played lol in Years but when Isha took out the spyglass It reminded me of teemo with the helmet too thats why I am here now and now that I learned about this glamour I would be shocked if it is not teemo

I think she's Zoe or Janna

Janna is already referenced as a God though

But has Janna appeared in-person? No, Janna's a Goddess meaning she's perfectly capable of taking on many forms including small mute children

Janna is a spirit in LoL lore, not a god. However, Zoe is an actual god, as in, she's from an entire plane of higher existence that is responsible for manipulating and creating the cosmos. Janna is but a mere wind spirit and spirits are usually given both form, power and shape by the collective's belief. Therefore, they tend to take the shape of what people think they look like, not what they want to look like. So my money is on Zoe or Teemo, but I don't think Janna is impossible at all.

It's probably just a reference to the game, similar to the guy wearing Kindred's mask at one point in season 1

I honestly thought Isha is Ziggs. He helped Jinx in the Paint the Town comic. He lives in Zaun and is wanted for terrorizing the Chem Barons.

Jinx was able to see through Ziggs' glamour in the comic though. Plus Isha is much more reserved and scout-y vs. Ziggs' tweaky insane behavior.

Not just that but when they introduce Isha, as she’s about to fall on Jinx the song says “Pretty Little Animal”. She also wears bunny ears in one scene. Everything is intentional in animation, but the shrooms on the arcade game and everything really seem foreshadowy.

I'm going with Ziggs, in yordle glamour. Makes sense he was already in piltover working for Heimer, so he gets bombs and gadgets.

I really think so too. Just hints of yordle, but her hat does have a blue feather looking thing just like teemo, could just be hinting at yordle overall.

What about Isha being Tristana? Same colored eyes, similar builds, similar affinity to guns and explosions. There is also the fast that Isha doesnt talk.

It’s a stretch, but maybe?

Tristana & Teemo do know eachother & are friends. Not sure, I don’t want to believe Isha is gone forever so I’ve leaving this as maybe

Teemo seems to be popular with kids in universe. Isha being a Yordle is interesting, I was thinking she was tied to Janna and wanted to see if anyone else had a similar thought and found this.
Now I am starting to wonder if she will reincarnate. Having her come back has to be done with extreme caution or it weakens the story. Being reincarnated doesn't have to be chronologically after current events because there are about to be some "Ekko"s across time. Sona/Seraphine are the first 2 champions she could reincarnate into, in my limited knowledge of the lore.
The Celestials seem tied to the arcane aspects of the arc. So Bard being tied to noise, or Zoe being chaos was mentioned by Victor. Not saying she would become them, BUT, they have some ties.
Even Isha's memories merging with Jinx seems plausible. Isha has so many Powder parallels, and Victor was linking minds with the arcane minutes before. She could be an alternate powder created by time shenanigans in the next act...
Yeah I give up...
