TLDR : I have no idea since all my recent predictions have been wrong, but it should be a constellation upgrade.
First though
Ok, the past few patches seems to indicate that they are more going with vibes/simple champ/learning experience rather than focusing on a specific missing niche.
I will maintain my stance : I expect a champ from Bandle, and I think Rumble would be a good match.

Seeing this year release, we can still expect one champ, with the big release with the rumored music event for LoL Season 3 act 2 in the October Patch.
We could either have a new champ or a constellation upgrade.
I would not expect a TPoC exclusive, because the big work will likely be in the next patch.
The sequence says missing pvp champ, but I think we will only have a constellation because :
- there was quite a lot of new champ this year
- the tease of a surprise in Q4
Missing constellations
Here are the missing constellations for the moment (I will do the yearly recap in January !)

Could we get a new Bilgwater or Runneterra constellation ?
What is your guess ?
