lack of DIVERSITY in this game?

whats up with the vast majority of human/human like champions being european/asian physically or culturally ?

i got a lot of hispanic/african/indian/southeast asian/ middle eastern friends that know or played this game and i feel really bad that this game only emphasizes european/northern asian features for as big and international as it is.

fyi im half white half asian so i personally dont have a problem but i imagine some of my friends do maybe

Are we really doing this? First it was that Females are too skinny/girly. Now it's going to be we don't have every single nationality on the Human earth in a game were the lore is based on 3 different worlds? Take that PC garbage and keep it out of this game.

You're trying to get a different perspective, which is cool. I don't think you're looking at the game correctly though.

why the fuck are there no attack helicopters in the game? Like I feel so isolated when i play this game. I had to choose between the midgets or some furry creature, but i can't choose an attack helicopter????

I literally made a post talking about the exact opposite

I get that not every champion needs to be likeable, and they're only made to broaden the horizon of diversity. The same way you made Lucian because "We need a black guy." The same way you made Ekko because "We need another black guy." The same way you reworked Taric because "We need a gay guy." The same way you made Illaoi and Taliyah because "Ugly girls can be cool, too." And don't tell me those thick eyebrows of hers are attractive. If they were any bushier, they'd be behind 9/11.

it is super weird! the champs would be neat and more varied if there were some more skin tones and structure. we've had issues with too-similar bone structure/proportions, and it'd be nice to see a more diverse set of champs.

as for why riot hasn't done it yet, well, the comments you've received on this post give a hint. a ton of the playerbase is full of white boys who scream at the mere mention of a different race. any champ that isn't male and white is "PC garbage" to them.

There are all kinds of champions that fit different “race” types. How is this a thread and why the hell is it in gameplay?
