In this world, is the destiny of mankind controlled by some transcendental entity or law?

"Is it like the hand of God hovering above? At least it is true that man has no control; even over his own will."

Accurate to Runeterra or no?

P.S. League needs something that alludes to the Behelits.

Guts = Tryndamere ? Femto/Griffith = Aatrox ?

Aatrox 's lore even says that there are about five Darkin floating around in present day...

Definitely sounds like an allusion to the God Hand. I wonder which League Champion will take up Slan's spot.

I assume you've never even heard of Berserk.

I heard but I never watched. I'm not that interested in anime.

If it's because that you think that anime is for kids, I assure you, Berserk is most certainly not for kids. Some the ... action is rather gruesome.

No, I didn't say I dont watch anime. I watched a lot anime actually.

Parasyte, Death Note, Attack on Titan, Tokyo Ghoul, Akame Ga Kill, Fairy Tail etc.

But I'm not into it that much. I'm not watching anime seriously for 1 years or more.

And I know Berserker is bloody a lot.

Being in a bit of the same boat (literally haven't seen any of the ones you've listed but seen a few anime regardless), Berserk is ok. Nothing special, I get the feeling that it thinks it's much deeper than it actually is, dark content, violence and all that. It does that thing where every character has super vivid and annoying inner monologues about stuff that the viewer already knows. There are worse shows to spend your time watching if you're interested in medieval fantasy.

I hate medieval. :P

Fair enough man, personally, I love it. But hey, not all fiction is designed to be a match for everyone. How boring a world that would be if it was.

You're definitely correct. Now I understand why you don't like magic that much.

I like Warhammer 40k but not because of its medieval stuffs. It is because of Eldar, Necron and Chaos. They're my favourite factions. Eldar because of their pyshic powers, high intelligence, beauty and tragic history. Necron because of also tragic history and cool apperance (C'Tans also affect a lot). Chaos, well, not much to say. Chaos is life.

And that's fine. More power to you enjoying your hobbies. I on the other hand have never even played Warhammer 40K, because I'll be damned if I spend hundreds of dollars on chunks of plastic that will just be obsolete next rule book. So I don't know what factions I would or would not like.

I never played either, I learnt it from lexicanum and Warhammer 40k wikia. :P I like lore of Warhammer 40k more than its game. I actually don't even find it interesting.

I dont have to play a game for learning its lore. I also don't play D&D but I know a little bit about it. Even the reason I started to LoL is liches. Larloch, Ultra Lich of the Forgotten Realms, his power level attracted me a lot. I already knew liches, thanks to Kel'Thuzad (I met with liches with Warcraft 3) but my attraction on liches pushed me to research for more. Then I discovered more lich characters. Then I saw a lich character on LoL. And I started playing LoL just because of this reason. My first champion was Karthus with 3150 IP. Second was Xerath with 6300 IP. I literally went full retard and spend my 10k IP to 2 champions only. xD Wurf it though.

Hah, I can't say I've never gotten really interested in lore of a game I haven't played (looking at you, Dark Souls)

But on the stories of how we got involved with LoL. My buddy said, essentially, "Hey, Dienekes, play this game with me. You can be a Spartan and kill monsters, mages, and an annoying fluffy weasel thing."

And I was sold. I farmed enough IP to get him then essentially became a 1 trick.

Glad I heard that you still Pantheon. I think for some people, some champions get a place in its player's heart. Xerath is one of them for me. One of the first, one of the most loved.

Warlord Dienekes2 votes

I'll still Pantheon until the day he gets reworked into the space alien. Then I'll probably just quit the game. In any case, glad you're still enjoying Xerath, and good luck on the Rift.

Thank you.

Well I guess there is none that is truly absolute.

But I also guess there are some that have an eye on that position. Going by the personalities of some champions if they would find out that there was some transcendental being with godly powers they'd immedatly try to kill it and take its place...

So maybe it is better that there is none...

I mean, as long as you are strong enough, you can just kick death's ass Kindred whenever they come for you.

Kindred took the spot of the Grim Reaper of League so i doubt they would make another champion managing death/destiny of other living things. The only thing i've seen close to destiny being controlled is the Mt. Targon lore. Leona met a boy in a forest during training, after Leona chased Diana's tracks to the top of Mt Targon, the boy was there waiting at the top of Mt. Targon and said, "I waited the day you would come". Something like that.

Until the champion is released, i highly doubt there is someone controlling the destiny of everyone.

At least it is true that man has no control; even over his own will.

What do you mean by this?

I'm just quoting Berserk. I don't even fully understand it.
