yup, they really only have half assasins like : quinn, fiora, vayne and xin. I think it is just really hard to make an assasin from a place where backstabbing isn't noble

I don't think any Demacian would lower themself to use tools and unhonorable as ambush and surprise.

fun fact. Quinn was originally designed as a melee ad assassin and was probably changed to a marksman somewhere shortly before her release or later in her development after her lore was already written for some reason.

her entire lore and sentences about how "demacia has to change with how the world changes around it", the classic RPG rogue background of her lower class upbringing and her rivalry with talon make a lot more sense if you know what she was supposed to be originally.

funny thing is, even after they changed her to a marksman, she still played a lot like an assassin. even with her pre rework kit.

this was her original concept. i never understood why they didnt go through with it.

When I first started playing I thought Talon was the Demacian assassin because he was blue

Demacians are not about deceiving their opponents, they're better at using strength, discipline, and skill to straight up fight their opponent. They said Demacia is a small nation as well, so I kind of liken them to the Spartans in the sense that they make every soldier valuable, and nobody is cannonfodder. To do this, they all have to be highly disciplined and know how to fight one and one. They don't do a lot of hitting and running.

That said, it makes sense that their melee champs are armored to the teeth and are very direct in their approach.
