I've been in a long debate with a friend about Kog Maw's gender. They say Kog is a girl. I disagree, considering Kog's lore references Kog Maw as he/him. I understand one of his skins depicts him as a female angler fish but that is only a skin/cosmetic. Am I wrong or right about Kog Maw being male?
I actually don't think that void creatures have a biological sex considering that they are mostly bioweapons created by the watchers. Some of them might be able to create spawns in an asexual manner, but thats likely about it.
With that being said, the only one that is implied to reproduce is rek'sai who is considered female, so "female" seems to be used for void creatures that can reproduce, while the others are considered "male", even if they all have no actual sex.
Since Kog'maw isn't able to reproduce(at least as far as we know) I'd say he'd be "male".
kog is a dog!
Kog's lore references Kog Maw as he/him.
Well, you answered the question.
Who cares?
Kog may or may not be male -- it's unknown how Voidborn biological sex works -- but Kog has never been addressed as female in any media before, so I'd stick with male for the time being.
In-lore Void and in-game Void characters are completely different things. Besides Rek'Sai maybe.
Genderless?
