I talked about it when i first learned aatrox's lore, i think it'd be awesome to have some more Darki nin league

If I remember correctly, a Rioter implied that one of the other champions is secretly a Darkin. I might be wrong. If I'm not, my bet's on Jax

There's always the theory that Darkin are actually the living weapons possessing their user (i.e. Aatrox is actually the name of the sword, and he is simply possessing and transforming a human host) under that theory, Varus makes sense as a "half-Darkin" since the pit of corruption half-way possessed him and armed him with a living bow (he only isn't fully possessed because of a protective talisman he wears). He also shares similarities with Aatrox, in terms of his visual appearance (the sort of scaly, armor like growths on his legs and forearms, the design of his bow, etc.).

Eh it looks too much like aatrox. Grant it we don't really what darkins are supposed to look like and aatrox is the only example we can use to reference for them. I just feel like it doesn't look as unique kinda like how the yordles or the void champs are. You can tell they belong in that group because they share similarities, but they are still different to be their own thing.

There are 5 Darkin alive, including Aatrox.

We could have an entire team comp of Darkin.

Rito Pls

There's a significant difference between being touched by Darkin Magic and actually being a Darkin. I'd say that Tryndamere has been touched by Aatrox's magic and that's how he can... well... ignore the status effect that is DEATH. Likewise, I wouldn't be surprised if Varus's bow is a Darkin bow, but that doesn't actually make him a Darkin. It may well be that the Pit of Pallus is a prison for a Darkin, or perhaps it is just a storage facility for a Darkin named Pallus's bow? But again, that doesn't make Varus himself one.

Jax and Eve could be Darkins, but they don't have the right anatomy for it, though Jax is altogether too good at fighting. I suppose though that were he a Darkin, there'd probably be some difficulty plying him from his weapon, so I doubt a Darkin would settle for a lamp post.

I think they should create a New Dark Champ that goes against Aatrox

If i am not wrong, Aatrox Brand Jax Varus Tryndamere are Darkins (or whatever kind of darkin they should be)
