Can we have another just... human with a weapon and magical powers?

Mira Arya Enthe··75 votes·5,084 views

I get you wanna make 5 million extremely "unique" champions and a bunch of monsters but... I am really looking forward to the next champion who is just a person with magic and weapons and fits the whole fantasy theme. Maybe that female void human people asked for a lot back in the day or... just a wizard or knight or something?

Just... something I would like to see.

idk I'd say Illaoi doubled the amount of preexisting hentai

Ye but she's not curvy or anything. Despite her tentacles, no one likes her.

Camile is human, she uses weapons, just because her weapons are her legs doesnt mean anything. Also taliyah, jhin, ekko, illaoi, all recent releases Almost 90% of the roster is humans, if anything we should encourage more unique champs, like the void champions, everytime they release a void champ i get excited just to see how grotesque and alien they look like.

Excited how?

Human? Isn't she part machine?

500000000000000011 votes

Since we're discussing aesthetics, I think it's fair to call Camille a human since she basically looks like one. But yes, she's more machine than human at this point, I think.

Helmet Bro, anyone?

A Superb Villain11 votes

Needs a revive ability to explain how he can get killed so often.

Mogarl2 votes

Or it could be helmet bros and just have a reinforce passive. As an additional bonus when one of the helmet bros dies their body sits there for the rest of the game since they get replaced instead of reviving.

Even without the Helmet bro meme a "champion" that was just a group of relatively normal people could be cool.

IcyPepper8 votes

Passive: Guardian Angel

Description: Yes, Helmet Bro carries around his own item "just in case." No, you can't buy another. Sorry.

I want a Noxian commander support who isn't magical or super strong or anything, just well trained and disciplined.

500000000000000010 votes

It'd be pretty cool to get a support that uses ally health as resource. Like by yelling at them/whipping them to buff their combat abilities.

spams whip

an ally has died

wait why is our support 37/0/1 and our adc 1/37/0

Immediately thought of Warhammer 40K: Winter Assault expansion's Commissar unit that you could have him execute a member of a squad he was attached to in order to restore the rest of the squad's morale (if you are not familiar with this, the morale, if depleted would cause the squad to panic and run or break up/reduce power) and also increased their firepower temporarily

"If you will not serve in combat, then you will serve on the firing line."

Sounds more like a Demacian. It's possible, but Noxians by their own core don't really support. Why would a Noxian help a weaker person?

SpecterVonBaren5 votes

Noxians are all about strength but they still have a society with typical things in it. Their teachers and trainers would want to make those that they teach be stronger than they are.

Narasimha1 votes

I don't know, I feel like their trainers would be more of "Separate the wheat from the chaff" then helping everyone be stronger.

SpecterVonBaren2 votes

Then they would just kill their children since they're inherently weak by being children. There's a difference between someone not yet experienced or trained and someone that's weak and useless.

darreckpls3 votes

I don't think they would necessarily have to be like that. I think it would be really interesting to see a strong but kind noxian that doesn't fit the typical mold of a noxian. Kind of like ekko with zaun

TotalJerk3 votes

Thresh is a perfectly functional support despite not really having a "support" theme in his lore. Hell most of the viable support roster has virtually nothing thematically suggesting that they belong in the support role.

Taliyah was pretty recent.

So more humans are definitely a possibility.

Mira Arya Enthe3 votes

Unfortunately I don't see her much. But she at least added to the game and was a productive design. Some recent champions add nothing to the game in terms of gameplay.

TyrekGoldenspear14 votes

I dunno. Kled adds a very distinct flavor to the game.

Ham. Ham on ham bread. With Ham mustard. Plus I love his crazy yells lol.

Ivern revolutionized Jungling.

Camille is the ultimate lockdown champ and her cooldowns and spell ranges require her to dance around her opponent in terms of distance.

That being said, the reason you haven't seen Taliyah often is becuase she's pretty high skillcap and falls off pretty hard after laning.

The few I have seen were really good.

Btw, now that Shyv is FotM and everyone wants her, who are you playing now?

Jbels10 votes

I think the last human they released was Taliyah, and before her I think it was Ekko

No wait, Jhin

Mira Arya Enthe6 votes

Well Jhin also falls under the excessively creative genre of champions like Camille. Which is fine... but... I just want another human who does things.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo3 votes

so you want a non lazy non handicap human ?

Mira Arya Enthe5 votes

To be precise I want a more standard fantasy character. I wasn't aware Jhin was handicapped.

TyrekGoldenspear4 votes

Jhin isn't handicapped at all.

His lore describes him as an ordinary person without the mask.

oSEXYPLATYPUSo3 votes

HE AINT GOT NO LEGS

he is like Lt. DAN

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKFKRuWwgjg

TyrekGoldenspear6 votes

Actually he has real limbs.

They are just armored to protect him from the recoil of his weapons.

His splash looks the way it does because of a miscommunication between the splash artists and the model artists, becuase his model shows him having real limbs.

Or perhaps his splash just shows how Jhin sees himself, as we never actually see his actual body, just his reflection. It might explain why he shattered the mirror. He sees himself as imperfect.

Cyborg assassins that constantly show off generic TV show serial killer traits don't count as a "normal fantasy dude".

He's not a Cyborg though. Riot has confirmed those aren't robotic arms or legs, even though they look exactly like them. I get it though, I crave a champion based more in fantasy than science fiction too

SpecterVonBaren1 votes

I refuse to accept that because I love the idea of him completely replacing his arm for no other reason than for his art.

If it was only for his art, it would have 4 fingers

Yeah but I feel like his 4 OCD would go nuts if he had one robot limb and 3 regular limbs

Runeterra really isn't a standard fantasy setting, though. This is a setting that has air-ships, magically powered machines, and technologically augmented individuals. And, frankly, it has always been like this to some degree or another. If we're talking 'human with magic/tool' then we have: Akali Annie Ashe Braum Caitlyn Darius Draven Ekko Ezreal Fiora Gangplank Garen Gragas Graves Illaoi Irelia Janna JarvanIV Jayce Jhin Jinx Karma Katarina Leblanc LeeSin Lucian Lux MasterYi MissFortune Nidalee Olaf Quinn Riven Ryze Sejuani Shen Singed Sivir Sona Syndra Taliyah Talon Tryndamere TwistedFate Udyr Varus Vayne Vi Vladimir XinZhao Yasuo Zed Zilean

That's already a pretty huge chunk of the cast. And I'm discounting here champs augmented in pretty much any way at all, even those that were previously just normal humans like Pantheon. You're calling for 'warrior with magic' as a thing we need when there are already a whole bunch of them.

I would love to see a true battlemaster knight kinda deal, like someone who gets up in there and leads the fight while making his allies really hard to kill / do more damage or something like that.

That's pretty much exactly what Aatrox is supposed to do if his lore is anything to go by.

What a terrible, generic kit he has.

I'm not counting 'went bald because he uses drugs' as augmented.

I really want a champion that's basically just a regular knight with no special abilities.

NineTailedMystic2 votes

A bruiser knight in full plate and a two handed longsword? Fuck yes, I might willingly play another champion that isn't Ahri.

Spaceman5pff4 votes

Garen A Knight with a longsword

I guess ol garen isn't good enough for anybody anymore :(

Wyrmblade2 votes

I mean with more realistic armor, weapons and abilities. Garen doesn't really satisfy that because his giant ass shoulderpads, his giant ass sword and his giant ass spin. When I think knight, I'm thinking someone more graceful and gentlemanly than Garen. Not someone who screams justice while slamming down six tons of solid demacian glory on a toddler with a stuffed bear, but someone who is just as kind as they are deadly.
