Corki should NOT be reworked as a Yordle - KEEP HIM HUMAN!

Macilento··2 votes·2,268 views

I know that Corki is supposed to be a yordle and i belive is the last yordle to yet recive the "yordleization", and while i am sure he would be jsut as good as a yordle stop a second and think about it a moment.

Do you really want this to go away?: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mmkQHrpW5bU/maxresdefault.jpg

Corki as it is right now is such a WELL DEFINED character. He is like a living comic book caracter, or someone related to Yosemite Sam of Looney Tunes, but it's jsut great as it is.

Why am i saying this? Right now we can consider him "a GnomE2, or a "small human" and i know that it makes little sense overall but i'm sure the story department could find a way to keep him as it is. HE is cool, he is hilarious, i love his moustache and his grin, he is the perfect parody of the aviator.

If you reowrk him as a yordle he would still be good but just TOO DIFFERENT from what we all love about him.

Heimer was a simialr case but in that one he jsut looked BAD, so the yordleization did wonders for him, but corki is a different story.

In my Opinion his identity is to stay as it is!!

I want the little mustached human to stay!

You cant "keep" something if it never was.

He's also a well defined YORDLE and ALWAYS HAS BEEN.

Corki a well defined character? Seriously his whole VO consists of some flying-jokes(that most people probably don't get) and in the lore he is pretty much just described as "guy who fights with a Roflcoptr and who loves it". That is hardly well defined.

Also even if he is turned into a yordle,there is nothing that would prevent him from still wearing that helmet and having such a moustache,he would have a bit fur around his face,give him one finger less and maybe ears looking out of his helmet,but that is really all they need to change(not saying he won't be changed more,but that is pretty much what is necessary to make him look more yordle-like).

Of course it doesn't, it's covering half of his face.

He is a yordlebut an old yordle. Yordlehave their fur to attrack a female (that's why pretty much all female yordles are blue, and pretty much furless, they don't need to attrack the male) once yordles get old they start to get bald, of curse not many reach that point due to being prey to almost any other race in valoran

Actually, female yordles have fur, short fur. You can see it on the splash arts of Poppy and Tristana.

And the yordles can reach ages of thousands with ease... Poppy is older than Demacia. Due their magic affinity, they are not easy prey.

Straight from the wiki... "Because of their small stature, they were mostly prey for many animals. " "Today, the vast majority of the yordle society dwells in the southeastern part of Valoran, behind the safety of the Sablestone Mountain range"

They are prey my friend, just like humans are prey to most other anmals

That information its outdated in comparison with the new lore of Poppy.

What new information? Poppy's lore make little to no reference to the rest of the yordles. It only makes a small reference to yordles making wonders with magic(probably architecture due to context). I would appreciate some fact coming with your argument my friend

If you read the lore of Poppy, you can see that she has been living before the creation of Demacia, wich means that she is older than Jarvan I (And Sion), wich means that the yordles can live centuries (this is also mentioned in the lore of Lulu (Where it says that she was found to be "younger than expected", after dissapearing for centuries)). In the Poppy QaA this was confirmed as well.

The only time that it has been mentioned that the yordles are "prey", is in the JOKE of Kha Zix... the rest of the time, lore states that the yordles are great hunters... in fact, they have a celebration where they hunt dangerous creatures for fun, this celebration is called "the great hunt".

Also, talking about the hunting habits of the Yordle Race, the first yordles were hunters, as seen in the lore (and move set) of Gnar, a 4 years old yordle from prehistoric ages.
