What is the conversion of in-game units to meters?

I need to know this for science.

The In Game Units is measured as "Teemo"

1 Teemo = 1 In Game Unit

The average size of a yordle is 0.8 metters tall.

So, 1 In Game Unit is 0.8 metters approx... i guess.

Going by movement and range units, Teemo is about 100 across, isn't he? Which makes the lowest base movement speed for any non-Kled champion 2.6 meters/second, or 5.81603 miles/hour.

Assuming, of course, that Teemo is about as tall as he is wide in-game, and that your estimate of .8 meters is correct.

One Teemo is 100 units, exactly. So 1 unit is around 0,08 meters or 8 cm

So... Each unit is about .008 meters?

Sounds reasonable to me. It makes for a relatively realistic movement speed.

Realistic but that also means that Teemo has legs about half or less the size of normal human legs, yet can run just as fast if not faster than most champions in-game.

The most important fact we learned today is that Teemo never EVER skips leg day.

It's the MS "pixel" units I'm interested in. But thank you.

1 Teemo is 100 units, so it's actually approx 0.008 meters.

This would likely be adjusted once Teemo gets his visual update.

Please share your scientific findings when you have them, my fellow Sion main.

My internet crashed when I was almost finished with my response...

I'm too lazy to rewrite all of the math and whatnot, so just take my word for this:

  • Sion's base speed is 2.76 m/s
  • Sion's max ult speed is 7.6 m/s (27.36 km/h or almost exactly 17 mph)
  • Assuming constant acceleration to max speed over 4 seconds, Sion will travel 51.12 meters during his ult (if uninterrupted)
  • If Sion were to compete in the 100 meter dash, he would finish in 14.43 seconds (an average time for an adult male is 15-20 seconds - without armor and weapons, and having two good feet)

Now, for the real meat:

  • Based on some research around heavyweight boxers (seems appropriate to find Sion-like individuals), an appropriate weight for Sion (without armor) can be estimated around 110 kg (just over 240 lbs)
  • His armor is not a full suit, but is considerably thicker than that of a normal medieval knight's. Add in his metal boot/stub and his soul furnace, and we can assume his armor weighs roughly the same as a knight's - about 20 kg or 45 lbs.
  • His axe is ridiculously large. The largest I could find with a weight had a head of 1.5 ft across weighing 10 lbs. Tiny. Based on the size of Sion's axe, I will assume it weighs approximately the same as his armor.
  • Therefore, Sion's total weight with armor is estimated as 150 kg or 330 lbs
  • We can now calculate the force of impact from Sion's full speed ult (estimating a 0.2 second stopping time) as 5700 Newtons. This would feel as though something weighing 581 kg (1281 lbs) was sitting on you.

Conclusion: Ouch.

That's fucking awesome.

Sion would kick ass in the olympics.

Why? the lore doesn't equal the game knowing would be kinda pointless.

Whoever said we needed a point? This is science!

Additionally, we need to know Sions weight. Together with Weapon and everything
