@Riot Can we have another female yordle?

Hige··37 votes·3,237 views

I really like yordles in general but I think that having only 3 females is a bit loopsided.

Granted, finding a personality and theme that fits a female yordle can be a bit hard but I think there's still space for at least 2 or 3 more...

How is finding a personality to fit a Yordle and different than finding a personality to fit a human?

Hige14 votes

well, Yordles don't just happen to be short and furry versions of regular hoomans, their personality is often considered to be quite extreme:

Ziggs is EXPLOSIONS, akin to Jinx but definitely more neutral Heimerdinger is all about science Rumble is about Yunkyard engineering Kled is about GET OUT OF MY TERRITORY Teemo is BATMAN Veigar is EVIL

Lulu is Fae magic Poppy is honor and duty Tristana is acrobatics

As you can see, even if I didn't list them all, most yordles have a theme like every champion but then the fact that they are yordles helps the theme being pushed to the extreme with a seasoning of crazyness.

Jinx could be about explosions as I said and she's pretty crazy on her own, but Ziggs is definitely a lot more extreme when it comes to explosions, it's like he was born to make things explode and he knows nothing else but explosions while Jinx simply enjoys seeing them

Would you say yes to a Shadow Isles yordle?

I would say yes to a Shadow isles yordle.

MonkeyMadness2 votes

No, that doesn't really make thematic sense, given that Shadow Isle's champs are being rewritten in many cases to originate from the Blessed Isles, which became the shadow isles (karthus being the one exception that I'm aware of).

Also, how do you make a cute, cuddly, adorable shadow demon? Oh, wait...Teemo

GreenLore3 votes

There is nothing that speaks agains the idea that a yordle lived on the blessed isles and became corrupted as well(or a yordle might have been part of the ruined kings army)

Also Elise is from Noxus as well.

MonkeyMadness1 votes

Except that we rarely see yordles that are not associated with bandle city/ionia

GreenLore5 votes

Poppy Gnar and Kled say hello(also not sure how you think yordles are common in ionia,when there is only Kennen who is connected to that place).

Sure non-bandle-city yordles are not as common as bandle-city yordles,but they aren't unusual either.

MonkeyMadness1 votes

So far, Gnar is the only yordle not stated to be from Bandle City. As for Ionia, you have kennen (as you pointed out) and I know that Poppy's old lore had her closely associated with Ionia (not 100% sure on her new lore though).

Point is though that a Shadow Isles/Blessed Isles yordle champ wouldn't make much thematic sense. We already have our "origin" Shadow Isles champs, so now I would only expect future shadow champs to be those that are corrupted by the Black Mist. I suppose we could expect a yordle shadow isles champ if the Black Mist were to reach Bandle City, but given that it's only just getting to Bilgewater I'd guess we have a few more Harrowings before we need to worry about that.

GreenLore4 votes

Poppy was always associated with Demacia,never with Ionia and Kled is noxian.

Also there is literally nothing that prevents Riot from making a new shadow isles champion who is from the blessed isles. Thresh and Yorick are currently the only champs who were citizens from the blessed isles(well Maokai more or less too) and there were surely more than just them (Hecarim and Kalista were from the ruined kings army)

Similarly they could make a yordle who traveled to the shadow isles after their corruption for whatever reason.

MonkeyMadness1 votes

Poppy was always associated with Demacia,never with Ionia and Kled is noxian.

Either way, both originated from Bandle City. And the fact that even "evil" yordles (kled, veigar) still have that cuddly vibe that just can't happen with shadow isles champs.

GreenLore1 votes

I'm not sure how Kled is cuddly. Just because he has fur doesn't make him kuddly...

MonkeyMadness1 votes

He's a fuzzy little mouse critter. He still has that classic yordle vibe, which is why his personality is so hilarious.

GreenLore1 votes

In any way I wouldn't say that a more comedic shadow isles champions is impossible anyway. I mean we've got KogMaw,who is often considered to be one of the cuter champs of the game, for the void,the one faction that is arguably worse for the shadow isles

MonkeyMadness2 votes

kog is pathetic cute tho. If you saw that shit in real life you kill it with fire.

I was thinking of a kickass elderly female Yordle who uses black magic, kinda like a voodoo shaman.

LULU

Wimbledofy2 votes

so basically you want to combine veigar and lulu? Cuz lulu is pretty old technically and veigars got the black magickses

Scoroct5 votes

I'd be super down for a Zaunite female yordle. The one thing is there are already a ton of sciency yordles but maybe this one can be a mercanery or something.

Or even an assasin maybe.

Hige2 votes

Yes! Science has many aspects as we see with Heimerdinger and Rumble to see the point of view from a yordle about Zaun would be amazing!

dunkeroni2 votes

{quoted} assasin yordle.

Yes, this is clearly what we need. Female assassin yordle.

After the rework of Poppy, it would be nice to get a very serious/dominate personalty female Yordle again.

Warlord Dienekes1 votes

Yes, please, serious no nonsense badass female yordle would be great.

Can she punch things? I kinda want a yordle who punches the shit outta things.

Of course she can Sharjo. Theoretical serious badass yordle girl can do anything you want, my man. Anything you want!

Then she'll punch EVERYTHING.

EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE.

And she'll be god damn IRRATE about it.

Not just another, we need MORE! SO MUCH MORE!

Riot considers Poppy the last female yordle because the rework gave her new lore. Plus Kled as a yordle i feel like were going to get one either rly soon or rly far away

Hige3 votes

I honestly don't think we'll get a new yordle anytime soon, sadly, but I can only hope they take our pleas in consideration to kickstart female yordle projects :P

trash sion1 votes

It could just be me, but I really hate Yordles.

It might have to do with the fact that I'm playing a fantasy game, and it's hard for me to immerse myself in it when a midget with some blowdarts is able to kill a blood leeching landshark with a sword no problem.

I understand the appeal to others I guess, but I feel like the ~10 Yordles we have is enough, no other race has that many champions unless you just count humanoid champions.

Hige2 votes

well it's a given that Riot will keep working on yordles, they are part of the world as much as every other human (or creepy tree...) this thread is aimed at making the next yordle a female one.

Sorry you don't like them :(

GreenLore6 votes

By the same logic you could say that it makes no sense that champs like Garen stand a chance against AurelionSol or even Xerath

trash sion1 votes

You have a point, because Garen is just a human whereas many other characters are god-status...

But I still manage to feel powerful when slamming a massive sword around playing as a beefy stereotypical protagonist.

It's hard for me to feel powerful when playing as a beaver-sized midget with a blowgun.

GreenLore3 votes

Thats the whole thing about yordles,its basically david vs goliath,you are the small midget with a blowgun and yet you still manage to compete with the big guy and his giant sword.
