(Poll is down below)

#The forces of the undead have succeeded in taking on Ionia. Next up: the Shuriman empire fights the Void in a mighty brawl! https://imgur.com/TvL3Ra8

In every match, champions are given an individual tier based on how powerful they are lore-wise (in-combat). These tiers are not official and should only serve as a way to see who would probably be the most powerful champions, so do not take them too seriously. https://imgur.com/qVxiwod

#TEAM SHURIMA: The city of Shurima has arisen once again and every tribe near it's location has allied to it. Extraordinarily powerful Ascended beings and mysterious creatures thrive in the sands around the capital. Old foes (team Xerath and team Azir) have put their disputes aside for the time it'll take them to battle the Void. https://imgur.com/KHN7x6A https://imgur.com/YitLH7E

#TEAM VOID: It consumes, it grows and it adapts. The Void is a manifestation of what lie within; it's an ever-growing place where are found some of Runeterra's most dangerous monsters and alien-like creatures. For the sake of this tournament, every Void champion (whether they fight the Void or are one of it's monsters) have allied. https://imgur.com/mZHmiTI https://imgur.com/vnF7Ih7

Remember Icathia from Where Icathia once stood.

This didn't really get answered last time and this is one of the two fights where it might matter so here goes: is this Shurima vs the Void or Shurima vs what the void can deploy in Runeterra?

honestly this is closer than one would think with Icathia and all. but a hand full of gods just wont be enough to stop the void from corrupting most of their forces, if not themselves.

Malzahar solo the 4 Acended

In "Where Icathia once stood" just opening 1 portal to the void defeated the entier Shuriman army and the god warriors too

Granted Malzahar opens smaller portals but he is also dealing with only 4 major threats so this point is still valid

And his sacrifices causes earthquakes

The rest of team shurima has to worry about earthquakes while fighting the void born, Rift Walker and Kai'sa...... they are dead

Gonna say this one is actually pretty easy. First of all the void has beaten massive Shuriman armies before, ascended included. That was only a small fraction of the void too. They also have Malzahar with them, who as Drakath2002 pointed out is a seer and can predict the future, a really powerful tool in war.

The Majority of Shurima's army is useless vs the mid+ sized void creatures, meaning that it really ends up being the most powerful Shurimans vs the entire void army. Shurima does have a bit of a range advantage with Xerath, but the void isn't completely incompetent in that area either. More importantly it has multiple beings such as Vel'koz that are capable of easily killing ascended without having to deal with their pesky defenses.

Rek'sai alone has survived in Shurima for a long time, showing just how hard it can be to rid yourself of a single void creature, and she is just one of the species of creatures that exist in the void.

Lastly the Void has one big trump card, a being in their powerful enough to make even Aurelion Sol feel fear, which is a motif we will be seeing more of as we work our way towards a winner.

Some fun facts to point out:

Void creatures are incredibly tough, to the point where even star fire isn't enough to destroy their bodies, although it will kill them. Smaller ones are able to be killed by normal humans though (A number of Rek'sai's children have been slain before.)

Velkoz utilizes plasma, putting his offensive power on an equal, if smaller, scale as Aurelion Sol.

Cho'gath has skin of a similar hardness as Diamond.


Not enough time to do a full detailed post on this one so I will leave it at that and let you decide who would win.
