Most Powerful / Important Champions Lore Wise

I know that there are other discussions out there stating the same thing. Who are the most powerful champions in the League of Legends lore? (Not game.) I just wanted to create my own thread because I wanted some of the newer champs to be included like Kindred and Illaoi.

My nominated champs:

1.) Bard - He (it?) is a deity that is capable of manipulating time and space. He can manipulate parts of the universe, the very fabric of existance itself. Whenever something happens that threatens to disrupt the universe, Bard appears and intervenes and stops it.

2.) Kindred - They are also sort of gods, being the physical manifestation of fate and death itself. When it's someone's turn to die, and that particular person for some reason doesn't die, then it's Kindred's job to make them. And if you've read Kindred's lore and stories, then you know that they can do some scary s*** to someone.

3.) Karthus - Kind of like Kindred, he is a bringer of death. It is also said if he sang his song, the requiem, for the full thing, it could have unimaginable destructive power.

4.) Nasus - Obviously stronger than his brother, Renekton, and is the guardian of the sand emperor himself.

5.) Fiddlesticks - Even though the old lore with the whole summoners thing is not canon any more, Fiddlesticks was able to scare even his own summoner, and brings horror that nobody has even known before.

That's all I can really think of at the moment. So who does everyone else think is the strongest champs in the lore?

Mordekaiser as long as you don't find his skull :D

Graves. Because he goes in with nothing but a shotgun and wins.

On a more serious note: Veigar, Mordekaiser, and Swain. Each of them is a potential antagonist for a respective point. Mordekaiser is the evil of the past, Swain is the danger of the present, and Veigar is the potential for the future.

You made a point for Nasus but forgot Xerath. He is more powerful than combined Nasus and Renekton even while he got sealed.

Well, "Important" is not the same than "Powerfull", but i would say that one of the most important champions is Swain, the leader of Noxus .

He has the power of starting a World War in Runeterra and THAT is way more important than anything that other champions can do.

Bard uhm who says that he can manipulate the fabric of time and space?From what we've seen bard can appear at certain locations run around and well probably do what he can do in the game.

Karthus I think at this point it has been made pretty clear that Mordekaiser is the most powerful undead.I mean he is so powerful he binds the black mist to his will.The requiem of karthus being like uber-powerful is more like a fan-theory as far as i know

Nasus well Xerath has been mentioned already,but overall I dunno why so many people actually think he is so powerful.I mean pretty much any info about his abilities comes from the game in which he is basically a fighter with some minor magical powers.Sure his old lore mentioned how nasus and the others were seen as gods,but we never got any information about the regular people of their world,so it was questionable if they were really that impressive.

Overall I'd say some other strong contenders for powerful champs are: Chogath even the summoners couldn't imprison him(yet they were able to imprison nocturne,brand and renekton) Aatrox can turn the tides of a war. Sion almost took down a fortress on his own(while slaughtering both enemies and his comrades) Braum dude punched through a mountain(and lets not forget that braums specialty is actually defense not offense) Azir the moment he became ascended,he raised a whole city and a whole army from the sands,though it is possible that his powers are limited by the terrain TahmKench tahm kench doesn't even appear to be a real physical being and has extensive knowledge about pretty much everyone. Syndra she raised a castle from the ground,despite being still inexperienced with her power.

One could beg to say that some "lore-less" Champs (like Tristana) could be some of the most powerful. Having no real idea what their potential in power is (because it wasn't explained at all), you can say their potential is limitless. To be frank, it seems to me that, unlike those like Viktor or Thresh, the Yordle Champions (even Veigar) have the most potential to be great in terms of physical, mental, and magical power.

So I think a lot of you are forgetting void and shadow isles champions. Elise for one has a freaking spider god to back her up. Kassadin found out all the secrets in the lost city of Icathia and survived a battle against the void by letting it in! Malzahar also went to Icathia but him being a "prophet" and all changes the power perspective. I also wanna bring up Pix. The small little Imp can transport people across a FREAKING REALM. It tears a whole in the space time continuum and can visit at least one other dimension. But since pix isn't a champion I don't know if lulu would count. I do agree with the Swain idea due to his political power. Im not so sure about bard or kindred because they are spirits and everything has a weakness. Their lore isn't especially solid either other than the fact that we know they are deities or spirits of some kind. I also want to being up Doran. We know item 1055 item 1056 and item 1054 He must have had some kind of importance. Lastly I wanna bring up Zilean this man is HUMAN and can change time, talk about crazy. This is my intake on it. I will be following this thread definitely to see and respond to what other people think!

I would say the strongest would be Kindred, Mordekaiser, Bard, and Soraka.

The first two are basically the gods of death(With Morde even being the first undead) and the later two were literally gods, one that has taken a semi mortal state, the other...well no idea with Bard.

So they are easily the most powerful, since majority of the champions are basically just soldiers or simple mages. I mean even LB for being literally ancient and immortal wouldn't really amount to Kindred which is literally the Grim Reaper.
