Petition to change Level 5 Tank Mastery Title from "Brute"

Ironclad Dragon··269 votes·7,550 views

[At a champion's award ceremony...] Zilean We gather to commemorate the skill and brilliance of these six dauntless souls. Katarina, you are a Slayer, survival of the fittest personified. Darius, you are a Destroyer, laying waste to all in your path. Xerath, you are a Warlock, a magician of almost hellish power. Lucian, you are a Pathfinder, blazing a trail and carving our path to victory. Braum, you are a Guardian, wise protector and true hero. Zilean [Turns to last champion] Sion, you... you are a Brute. You block shots.


Seriously, can tanks get a more respectable title?

Bastion is probably the best of these. Some don't make sense (Why would you call someone a fortress/castle?)

I also think pathfinder is kind of lame. But yeah, brute is more of an insult than a title.

Pathfinder is a bit ambiguous. It fits for some of them but definitely not for others.

I think Pathfinder should be changed to Trailblazer honestly. Sounds much more badass.

I feel like people aren't giving the term "Pathfinder" enough credit. Someone who is a Pathfinder goes ahead into uncharted territory, boldly, maybe even dangerously and shows others the way. You're smart, technically skilled and can survive by your wits alone, leaving a trail behind you to guide those that come after.

You're Lewis and Clark but sexier.

[slayer-jinx-wink]

Trailblazer just doesn't do it for me.

Pathfinder is perfect for scout-type Marksmen like Quinn and Teemo, and maybe Caitlyn. But for most of the others marksman, whose primary gameplay is to back line and shred whatever they can click on (Draven/Jinx/Kog)? It doesn't fit, at least not in my opinion.

I mean, to be honest, it DOES fit Sion. Just not most other tanks.

Ironclad Dragon4 votes

Brute does fit Sion, but it still doesn't pay proper respect to his power.

It's comparable to calling Annie a "kid." Technically correct, but why would you call her a kid over conjurer, invoker, magus, or warlock?

I honestly don't like guardian for supports... it actually seems fitting for tanks more than supports.

Why is Lux considered a warlock at level 5? She's a mage or am I just really missing something?????

Mage + level 5 mastery = "warlock" title. What's the problem?
